| House Republicans Now Want Answers From Pelosi About Her Actions Regarding Capitol Security Before Jan. 6 |
| 2021-02-16 |
| [Red State] As we reported, one of the reasons that Democrats likely backed out of having witnesses during the impeachment trial despite the fact that they won a vote to do so was because of the threat that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) might be called and asked what did she know when and why she didn’t request the National Guard to help out at the Capitol beforehand. The facts are that President Donald Trump had ordered the Guard to be available if Pelosi and/or Mayor Muriel Bowser requested it. But as we noted, they didn’t do so, until the action at the Capitol was well underway on Jan. 6. According to Fox, Republicans including House Administration Committee Ranking Member Rodney Davis, House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Jim Jordan, House Oversight Committee Ranking Member James Comer and House Intelligence Committee Ranking Member Devin Nunes want to know why and are demanding answers from Pelosi. Trump authorized the National Guard on Jan. 3 for Jan. 5-6, if it was requested. The Chief of the Capitol Police at the Time said that he asked the sergeants at arms to request the assistance of the National Guard. Sund said the former Sergeant at Arms Paul Irving said he was concerned about "the optics" and didn’t feel the "intelligence supported it." Paul Irving who since resigned answers to Pelosi. The GOP letter reminded Pelosi that she’s "responsible for all operational decisions made within the House." |

| #11 NAACP is suing Trump and others over the riots. I suspect if it goes forward Trump's team will bring up his offers to have the National Guard there and Pelosi's refusal. That'll make interesting headlines. |

| #10 While the Liberals, Socialist, Democrats, & Blue Rhinos may protest walls being built to protect US Citizens and US JOBS. They surely will have No Problems with Nancy, Chuck and Others in the DC Deep State from building an Information/Evidence Proof Wall around themselves to keep us from knowing Real Facts. Hey! GOP/RNC... The TV Cameras work fantastically to record those 2 mins Political Service Announcements. So how about exposing some real serious dirt? Start showing us its more than Re-election Newsbites, actually do something to expose the Facts. |
