Former President Trump on Sunday doubled down on his push for former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) to be prosecuted over allegations she and the other Jan. 6 committee members purposely withheld testimony and details from their investigation into the former president’s actions during the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol insurrection.
Trump, on Truth Social on Sunday, posted a piece from former Trump administration aide Kash Patel published in The Federalist last week, in which Patel claimed Cheney and the House Jan. 6 committee “suppressed evidence” about the former president’s authorization of National Guard troops during the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol insurrection.
A key pillar of the left’s propaganda about insurrection is to distort the truth surrounding whether Trump authorized, prior to Jan. 6, the deployment of National Guard troops to keep order on that day. The main architect of this disinformation campaign is former Congresswoman Liz Cheney.
No, that is not a key pillar. The key pillar is what we all saw LIVE on TV. When shit was going down, Trump did not immediately call in support and did not immediately tell his supporters to stop. Also, when shit was going down, the cops repeatedly had their Guard backup requests denied.
Requests for unarmed guard to manage traffic and crowds WERE filled ahead of time. The guard came in and more than doubled the available city and capitol police numbers. The problem was that requests for the guard to dial things up, when shit got bad, were delayed and denied.
IMHO, If Trump’s chief / deputy chief are to be trusted, and that’s a big “if,” and they offered to fully militarize the capital with 10,000 troops, then I think the mayor and Biden made the right pre-game call. Having a fully militarized capital, during a peaceful transfer of power, would’ve looked pretty bad and would’ve given ammo to the right’s lies about the election being some sort of sham.
This is entirely because he wants to recapture the magic of “Lock Her Up” as a chant.
Her war criminal father though, “great guy, a good friend. People are going to be talking about him more and more”
Dick Cheney is a poster child for retroactive abortion, but this has fuck all to do with the case in point.
