National Guard Whistleblowers To Share Bombshell Testimony That Trump Ordered Deployment On January 6

Whistleblowers from the Washington D.C. National Guard are expected to tell Congress that then-President Donald Trump was ready to deploy them during the 2021 Capitol protests, though the deployment was delayed by the Army. This contradicts testimony from the January 6 Committee.

According to a report from the Daily Mail, at least three officers are set to appear before a House subcommittee to claim that their stories were rejected by the partisan January 6 committee. The Democrat-led committee defied decades of Congressional precedent when then House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) refused to allow Republican leadership to appoint their own members.

The guardsmen are expected to testify that acting Defense Secretary at the time Christopher Miller did indeed give advance approval of D.C. National Guard deployment under Trump’s direction.

In addition, the whistleblowers are expected to tell the House Administration Committee’s Oversight Subcommittee that then-Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy delayed the notice for deployment to D.C. National Guard Commander William Walker for at least two hours.

The witnesses feel that their testimony was rejected by the January 6 Committee because Democrats were solely focused on bringing down Trump rather than improving preparedness for future events. The officers, who were with Walker on the day of the protests, are expected to testify that they were on buses dressed in tactical gear where they waited for hours to receive the order to deploy.

Additionally, the whistleblowers will reveal how the January 6 Committee did not want to hear their testimony because it corroborated Trump’s insistence that he ordered the National Guard to deploy. Leftist pundits and politicians have claimed that the former president deliberately delayed the deployment in order to halt the electoral certification.

Former Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund, as well as General Walker, have previously said that now retired Lieutenant General Walter Piatt delayed or ignored Sund’s request for National Guard support. Piatt reportedly said, “I don’t like the visual of the National Guard standing a police line with the Capitol in the background.”
