In the aftermath of the Capitol Riot of January 6, 2021, Donald Trump repeatedly stated that he called for the National Guard’s presence at Washington DC. This request was due, in part, to a track record of ANTIFA\/BLM attacks against conservative demonstrations in the recent past. Liz Cheney, along with the rest of the January 6 Committee, received testimony substantiating Donald Trump’s call for the National Guard as well as for his call for a quick reaction force. The actions of the January 6 Committee are under review by a current House subcommittee.<\/p>\n

From The Federalist:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Deputy Chief of Staff Anthony Ornato’s first transcribed interview with the committee was conducted on January 28, 2022. In it, he told Cheney and her investigators that he overheard White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows push Washington D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser to request as many National Guard troops as she needed to protect the city.<\/p>\n

He also testified President Trump had suggested 10,000 would be needed to keep the peace at the public rallies and protests scheduled for January 6, 2021. Ornato also described White House frustration with Acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller’s slow deployment of assistance on the afternoon of January 6, 2021.<\/p>\n

Not only did the committee not accurately characterize the interview, they suppressed the transcript from public review. On top of that, committee allies began publishing critical stories and even conspiracy theories about Ornato ahead of follow-up interviews with him. Ornato was a career Secret Service official who had been detailed to the security position in the White House.<\/p>\n

Cheney frequently points skeptics of her investigation to the Government Publishing Office website that posted, she said, “transcripts, documents, exhibits & our meticulously sourced 800+ page final report.” That website provides “supporting documents” to the claims made by Cheney and fellow anti-Trump enthusiasts.<\/p>\n

However, transcripts of fewer than half of the 1,000 interviews the committee claims it conducted are posted on that site. It is unclear how many of the hidden transcripts include exonerating information suppressed by the committee.<\/p>\n

Those documents support the committee’s narrative rather than the truth of the events leading up to January 6, 2021, said Rep. Barry Loudermilk, chairman of the House Administration’s Subcommittee on Oversight.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
