UPDATE

Here is Miller saying on Hannity he testified under oath that Trump authorized 20k troops *Video

Trump never gave order to ready troops for J6 former acting Def Sec Chris Miller Testifies DEBUNKED ABOVE. The J6 Committee put out purposeful out of context information WHO WILL CALL THEM OUT?
quote:

washingtonexaminer.com

Former President Donald Trump never issued orders to ready 10,000 troops ready to be deployed to the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, former acting Defense Secretary Chris Miller told congressional investigators.

This assertion, revealed by the Jan. 6 committee on Tuesday, clashes with claims made by Trump and his allies, as they argue this was a step the former president did take to protect lawmakers on the day the Capitol riot disrupted lawmakers as they met to certify President Joe Biden's 2020 election victory.

“I was never given any direction or order or knew of any plans of that nature. I was surprised by seeing that publicly,” Miller told the Jan. 6 committee in video testimony. “Obviously, we had plans for activating more folks, but that was not anything more than contingency planning. There was no official message traffic or anything of that nature. … That was not part of my plan or the Department of Defense’s plan.”

Former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows told Fox News one month after the Capitol attack that Trump had requested an increased presence of National Guard troops at the Capitol to protect his supporters on Jan. 6. Meadows then said that request was denied by members of the Democratic-led Congress, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA).

Former acting Def Sec Chris Miller video clip
It could be semantics of "no direct order from President Trump." But this guy is suppose to be team Trump with Ezra Cohen, no?

Meadows testified that Trump ordered Nat Guard/Military support. Kash Patel with his testimony (The J6th Committee isn't interested in releasing) released documents signed by DoD/Pentagon that Trump did order backup.

This statement is most likely what Judge Cheney (& Biden after today's OMB statement) has directed the DOJ to use to charge Trump with Seditious Conspiracy.

Why did acting Def Sec Chris Miller throw Trump under the bus?

Trump would have signed off or authorized if requested but the people in charge of security never requested so trump never could authorize… at least that’s how I heard it. I don’t think the trump team ever made the claim that it gave a direct order or whatever way that bullahit is worded. This is all those fagets do is play word games and hide shite through slight of hand headlines and … the question is…. How are the people gonna hold the media responsible because they are put their minds with this shite. The way it has been reported from day one has been so oddball, and that witch who is gonna burn Nancy pelosi manipulated the minds and emotions of dumb Americans who maybe still to this day think that there was police officers who were killed in the attack, etc. the whole thing is laughable both in its hilarity and in that they were actually able to plan this out and pull it off to perfection right under trumps nose. If he wasn’t so self absorbed he would have been able to see n stop some of this crap from ever happening

They're misrepresenting the claim. Trump OFFERED to send troops but was turned down by the sgt. at arms, who reports directly to Pelosi.

So no, he didn't send troops, because he was turned down. And now they're saying the offer was bogus because no troops were sent. These people are slime.

Interesting how Meadows was subpoenaed, refused to comply, and was not prosecuted like Bannon.

See...even declaring "I don't know" and "I can't remember" can be turned as evidence against trump.

I'm confused...

The forces were ready to be deployed. Miller admits they had contingency plans already drawn up and ready to go to deploy those troops. What were they expecting in response to a political rally?

"Are you ready? Ok, I need you to get supper ready.....like super official ready! I want these guys readiness levels set to June 6th. Omaha Beach ready."

This is so laughably stupid.

If Trump did give the order to ready those troops, then this clown show hearing would accuse him of trying to use those troops to lead an insurrection. Liz Cheney can eat a bag of dicks.

Two requirements to send the NG into DC:

1). Presidential authorization
2). Federal agency or mayor request.

Trump gave his authority on J4.

No other party “officially” enacted their end of the deal prior to the event.

Miller, Milley, Austin & Pompeo et al did not want the troops deployed as they were afraid DJT would use them egregiously.

This is all a charade to deflect accountability. The swamp is the guilty party.

From the DOD IG report:

quote:

Mr. Miller told us that the President called him during the evening of January 5, 2021, and asked if Mr. Miller was watching the protests in Freedom Plaza.65 Mr. Miller told us that at that point, he was not concerned that there was going to be a mobilization of violence. Mr. Miller told us that he and the President discussed the upcoming rallies, and the President’s guidance was to do what was required to protect the American people.

Literally nobody but hardcore idiot leftwingers give a single frick about the January 6th commission.

You lying bastards have been trying for 18 months to turn a protest into an "insurrection".

You never tell the truth about anything, and nobody gives a frick.

Why are 95+% of the 550’ish elected & appointed officials in DC enemies of the USA on their voting actions and printing fist money and deploying it overseas?

Why you may ask yourself, is that they are all bribed, extorted & blackmailed Into the corner.

Nothing more, nothing less.

Summation:
Troops were offered to the Democrat leadership
Democrat leadership declined
Therefore no troops were ordered.
Miller technically didn’t perjure himself, but his testimony was a lie.

Democrats wouldn’t accept troops, because troops would have interfered with their January 6 kabuki theater and subsequent kangaroo court.

Only the most tarded of libtards does not see this.
