𝙏𝙃𝙍𝙀𝘼𝘿: 1/✍🏻 Here is how Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer ensured there would be an “insurrection” on January 6th — despite calls from the Trump’s Pentagon and DoD to dispatch National Guard troops…

2/✍🏻 DoD reached out directly to Capitol Police on Jan 2nd asking if they intended to request National Guard troops.

Based on the (incorrect) information they had at the time, Chief of Capitol Police Steve Sund did not see a need to do so and declined…

3/✍🏻 On Jan 4, Sund realized there was a possibility of violence on J6, and reached to the Senate & the House (both have their own Sergeant at Arms) requesting National Guard troops.

These Sgt. at Arms are directly overseen by Schumer and Pelosi.

The request was 𝘿𝙀𝙉𝙄𝙀𝘿…

4/✍🏻 Upon being told to reach out to the National Guard himself, Sund did so.

Immediately, he was told to go back to the “Capitol officials” (the same Sgt. at Arms that just denied the request) for approval.

The DC Nat. Guard had 125 troops ready but were held up by Congress…

5/✍🏻 To compound this, the Mayor of DC, Muriel Bowser, wrote a letter to the Executive Branch stating that NO federal troops be deployed without the express permission of the Washington DC Metro Police.

Bowser claimed they were “well trained and prepared to lead the way”…

6/✍🏻 Following repeated calls for help, the Capitol Police were left high & dry by Congress. DC added barriers that prevented Capitol Police from acting on their concerns.

Capitol Police reported that FBI had intelligence showing there would be a riot but it was never shared…

7/7 ✍🏻 𝙏𝙃𝙀𝙍𝙀𝙁𝙊𝙍𝙀:
• Trump’s DoD initially raised concern and were told “no.”
• Capitol Police then asked, but Congress (Pelosi and Schumer’s direct reports) told them “no,” twice.
• DC Mayor said “no” to Nat. Guard.
• FBI knew of incoming violence but did not share!

𝘽𝙊𝙉𝙐𝙎 𝙀𝙇𝙀𝙑𝘼𝙏𝙊𝙍 𝘾𝙊𝙉𝙏𝙀𝙉𝙏: Elevators in the Capitol were NOT equipped with access control, allowing protestors to freely reach the secured 4th floor. Pure negligence by the Capitol!
