Funny how you never see this after a conservative gathering.

Why didn't Trump offer the National Guard to Mitch McConnel,

 

Because the Speaker (pelosi) was in charge of security for the Capitol

 

 


So is Majorty Leader Mike Johson currently in charge of securty at the nations Capitol?

 

I cannot find anywhere on the Oversight of the United States Capitol website that says he is, the board that has oversight responisblity is made up of:

 

Capitol Police Board

  • William McFarland, U.S. House of Representatives Sergeant at Arms (Chair)
  • Karen H. Gibson, United States Senate Sergeant at Arms (Member)
  • Joseph DiPietro, Acting Architect of the Capitol (Member)
  • J. Thomas Manger, Chief of Police (Ex-Officio Member)

 Here are the facts; -- March 8, 2024 WASHINGTON - Today, Committee on House Administration's Subcommittee on Oversight Chairman Barry Loudermilk (GA-11) released a transcribed interview the January 6 Select Committee conducted with President Trump's former White House Deputy Chief of Staff Anthony Ornato, which shows President Donald Trump pushed for 10,000 National Guard troops to protect the nation’s capital. ---https://cha.house.gov/2024/3/chairman-loudermilk-publishes-never-before-released-anthony-ornato-transcribed-interview

  I was wrong with my choice of wording - I could also show multiple photos (like the one I dipicted) of this type of behavior being a staple of liberal behavior in comparison to the much more infrequent instances of conservative behavior. You are correct, saying "never" was false. I should have said that what was depicted is a frequant result of liberal behavior in such instaances - which no one can dispute. MAGA -2024!


OK, protest are messy, rally's not so much. 

So is Mike Johnson now in charge of security for the Capitol building? So did Bowser communitcate with Pelosi?

 

This is a transcribed interview, do you know if they released the video or audio of the interview? Really interesting stuff.

It starts on page 77 of the transcript.  What was published by the committee wasn't the complete story.  Trump put forth an idea of 10,000 guardsmen.  It wasn't an order.  Plus, the idea was to have the guard protect Trump and his supporters from anti-protesters.  Max Miller and Katrina Pierson killed the idea of the guard (p. 79). This article may be able to clarify the entire situation https://www.justsecurity.org/93316/anatomy-of-a-conspiracy-theory-and-a-smear-still-no-evidence-of-trump-order-for-10000-guard-on-january-6th/

 It is obvious by this report that the DemocRats did not want the National Guard called up.

Where in the transcript does it indicate that Mayor Bower or any other democrat didn't want the National Guard called up in case of violent activity?  On page 80 of the transcript pertaining to guard troops, Max Miller (senior Trump advisor) "but chief had already said no for days."  Chief refers to Mark Meadows.  So it was Mark Meadows, Max Miller, and Katrina Pierson who were the ones who were pushing for no guard troops on Jan 6.  When did they become democrats?

Max, as you may have already figured out, lying is like breathing for tom. Making stuff up in the face of factual evidence is just his way of making himself feel more powerful.

I stand corrected, but under max's theory if pelosi couldn't call for help neith could McConnell.

 

Getting back to an earlier point the top of Max's search was a 4 year old incident; where a convicted democrat hack mayor was complaining.

 

Meanwhile to David's point, millions of dollars of destruction caused by liberals is just another day

"I stand corrected, but under max's theory if pelosi couldn't call for help neith could McConnell."

 

That's was the whole point, the Pelosi in charge of security is just a lie from Trump and the far right, one of many. Although MAGA likes to paint themselves has morally and ethically superior, they aren't.
