1. TRUE, Irving made the decision NOT to call in the NG as Capitol Police Chief Sund requested. BUT he made that decision based on Pelosi's policy. So you lied when you said "The Capitol Police COULD have requested NG troops. They did not"Your link said Irving HIMSELF decided not to request NG support
Bowser’s letter said that she did not request NG support
Neither had the power to deny or demand. They could only ASK
Kellogg claimed that three days before Jan 6 Trump requested NG troops and was denied. THAT’S an impossibility.
He was not denied. His Sec of Defense (who is not named Pelosi) IGNORED him
From the article:
"Irving did not float the idea by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.). Instead, he rejected then-U.S. Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund’s request to activate the National Guard based on what he believed would be Pelosi’s position on the matter"
2. TRUE. Bowser's letter said she would not request the NG since her DC police were adequate. Bowser denied Trump's request for NG troops, yet she did not provide adequate DC police protection.
3. At the Trump meeting on J4 with SECDEF Miller, Gen Milley, Gen Kellogg, Kash Patel, and Mark Meadows, Trump was told that Bowser requested 10,000 NG troops. Trump said "FILL THE REQUEST". That is all documented by everyone present. Yet Bowser sent a letter denying the request?! The GOP House dropped the ball here, they should have grilled those guys and Bowser to find out why BOTH requests for the NG were denied.
