Everyone in those January 6 hearingsinquisitions

who had any part of hiding this should be flogged.  As a start.
Then-President Donald Trump gave clear instructions to Pentagon brass days before the Jan. 6 riots to “do whatever it takes” to keep the U.S. Capitol safe, including deploying National Guard or active-duty troops, but top officials did not comply because of political concerns, according to transcripts of bombshell interviews conducted by the Defense Department's chief watchdog that shine new light on government disfunction ahead of the historic tragedy.

Gen. Mark Milley, the former chairman of the Joints Chief of Staff, confirmed to the Pentagon inspector general three years ago that during a Jan. 3, 2021, Oval Office meeting Trump pre-approved the use of National Guard or active duty troops to keep peace in the nation’s capital on the day Congress was to certify the results of the 2020 election.

Milley's interviews were among several key to transcripts obtained by House Administration Oversight Subcommittee Chairman Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga., and shared with Just the News.


Those who, like Cheney, did it because of personal dislike, should then be keelhauled.  Which would be pretty much all of the bastards.

"... but top officials did not comply because of political concerns,..." Since when is a MILITARY person supposed to be concerned about political optics? Aren't they supposed to obey a lawful order from their commander?

Yes. Which is why I think a lot of the Pentagon clowns are so upset by the thought of Trump winning:
"Remember that day? Remember that order you didn't carry out? Go find a new job."
