DC National Guard to Testify on Delayed Deployment Amid January 6 Probe

The Washington DC National Guard is set to testify in Congress that President Trump did request National Guard deployment for the Capitol demonstration on January 6, 2021.

Exclusive reports from DailyMail.com reveal that three officers will testify on Wednesday about the delay in deploying the Guard due to Pentagon’s late relay of the order.

The testimony contradicts claims made during the Pelosi-led January 6 panel, which seemed focused on blaming Trump rather than examining military preparedness.

The hearing aims to investigate the delay and whether Trump was responsible. Witnesses also highlight the panel’s refusal to consider their testimonies that support Trump’s claims of advising Guard deployment days before the protest.
