FACT: I made 11 urgent calls requesting National Guard support on Jan 6, starting at 12:58 PM. Approval was withheld for 71 minutes by the House Sergeant at Arms, who reported directly to Speaker Pelosi. She caused critical delays, and now is shifting blame to @realDonaldTrump for failures she helped create. The record is clear.

.@SpeakerPelosi: "On January 6th...we begged the president of the United States to send in the National Guard. He would not do it...And yet, in a contra-constitutional way, he has sent the National Guard into California. Something is very wrong with this picture."

I don't disagree.
🚨 Why did the January 6 Committee refuse to let Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund testify? Because he would have exposed the truth. @ChiefSund: “Ask yourself why the January 6 Committee never requested that I come in to publicly testify. Think about that—I am the Chief of Capitol Police.” They blocked him for a reason. Democrats had January 6 staged five months before it even happened. This wasn’t an intelligence failure. It was a setup. Every member of that partisan committee should be investigated and prosecuted for sedition. No one gets a pass. The cover-up is over. Time for real accountability. What do you think?

On Dec. 22, 2021, ten months after my testimony, Congress unanimously passed legislation sponsored by @SenAmyKlobuchar that fixed the very law that resulted in my repeated denials for support for my officers before and during January 6. Sen. Klobuchar saw the fatal flaw of the law and knew what I had gone through. Yet, years later, the injustice of my forced resignation by @SpeakerPelosi has never been addressed. @SpeakerJohnson @RepLoudermilk @DAGToddBlanche congress.gov/117/plaws/publ7…

I made 13 separate requests for outside support, beginning on January 3. Every request was denied until 2:09 p.m. on 1/6, when then-@SpeakerPelosi’s Sergeant at Arms finally approved assistance. Two minutes later, the first Capitol window was broken. The next day, Speaker Pelosi went on national television, singled me out by name, and forced me from my position.😡
🚨 NANCY PELOSI TELLS LINDELLTV REPORTER: “SHUT UP AGAIN” OVER JAN 6 QUESTIONS 🚨 LindellTV's @alisonintheknow confronted @SpeakerPelosi with questions about January 6th, the National Guard, and Pelosi's OWN comments caught on camera following the Capitol breach. Pelosi immediately fired back: “Shut up again because you're speaking lies.” When Steinberg continued pressing for answers, Pelosi refused to engage and instead attacked our reporter's credibility. “You work for Mike the Pillow Man. That's not journalism.” Pelosi then escalated: “All you do is spout untruths.” “Get away from me.” Notably absent from the exchange? Answers. Instead of addressing lingering questions about January 6th, the National Guard response, or her own behind-the-scenes role that day, Pelosi chose insults over accountability. The American people are still asking questions. @SpeakerPelosi is still refusing to answer them

BREAKING: Heavily armed US Capitol Police officers are RACING to a reported shooting in the vicinity of a high-ranking US government official in Washington, DC’s Navy Yard The black SUV seen in the video is an armored Chevrolet Suburban used by leaders of Congress and members of the President’s cabinet. It is UNCLEAR if this was a targeted attack, but the alleged shooter is NOT in custody, and police are searching the area. I personally witnessed that official be EXTRACTED via undercover Capitol Police officers, protected by uniformed officers carrying long rifles I will not name the official without their express permission, as I don’t want to dox their home. Other officers can be seen sweeping the area for evidence like shell casings. Will update when I have more details.

Congress just installed a 'Grateful Congress' plaque honoring officers from 19 agencies who responded on Jan 6. As Capitol Police Chief, I activated mutual aid at 12:55 pm—just minutes after the breach—calling in MPD (Asst. Chief Jeffrey Carroll), Virginia State Police, USSS, USPP, MWAA, FBI, and agencies from as far as New Jersey. I even reached the DC National Guard Commander. All while the House Sergeant at Arms repeatedly denied my requests for resources—the same official who rejected my advance request on January 3. Phone records, sworn testimony, and congressional reports confirm it. The irony? They're thanking the exact response I coordinated—while I was removed within hours of securing the Capitol. I will always be grateful to those agencies and officers who answered the call. The official record tells the full story. @SpeakerJohnson @RepBarryLoudermilk @RepBryanSteil @RepJoeMorelle @RepNormaTorres @SenThomTillis
Replying to @MacFarlaneNews
Federal law required the Jan 6 plaque to be hung on Capitol grounds by March 2023 It has not been. (MORE)

POLITICS NEEDS TO STAY OUT OF SECURITY For nearly a month, Congress has failed to fully fund @DHSgov, putting critical programs at @CISAgov—intelligence sharing, cyber defense, infrastructure protection—at risk. In the past 12 days, the U.S. has faced multiple attacks: •Austin, TX – March 1 – terrorist related mass shooting •New York City – March 7 – terrorist bombing attempt •Old Dominion University – March 12 – ISIS inspired campus targeted attack •Temple Israel, MI – March 12 – synagogue terrorist attack •Stryker Corporation – March 12 – Iranian-linked cyberattack on medical system used by 1st Responders and Hospitals. Our first responders show up every day. Congress must do the same. Fund homeland security now. @SenGaryPeters @SenJoshHawley @RepBennieThompson @SenSchumer @RepJohnKatko @FBI @MarkWarner @SenateGOP @SenateDems #HomelandSecurity #DHS #NationalSecurity #FirstResponders #CyberSecurity

February 5, 1997 @ 3:00 a.m, As a lieutenant with the DC Police, I found myself sprinting from the Fourth District station in Washington, D.C., alongside Lt. Mario Patrizio, responding to the call every cop dreads: “Officer down.” One block away, Master Patrol Officer Brian T. Gibson, just 27 years old, sat in full uniform at a traffic light on Georgia Ave. He was ambushed and murdered without warning by a man determined to kill the first police officer he saw. Several of us tried to save Brian, quickly placing him in a police car to rush him to MedStar. However, he would soon pass away, surrounded by his mother and father. Less than a decade later, one of the officers who fought to save him that night—Sgt. Gerald Burke Jr.—would also die in the line of duty. Brian’s funeral remains the hardest I’ve ever attended. Every overpass. Every intersection. Silent crowds honoring a fallen officer. And yet, from unimaginable loss came extraordinary grace. Brian’s mother, Shirley Gibson, opened her home every Thanksgiving to feed police officers and first responders—turning grief into service, and loss into legacy. A tradition that lasted decades. Today, remember MPO Brian Gibson. And if you can, thank a first responder. Stay safe. 🇺🇸👮‍♂️🙏

Thank you Silvio. Good question. I have asked Congressional Leadership to review my case…@RepLoudermilk and @RepTroyNehls are supportive, but @LeaderJohnThune & @SpeakerJohnson -Not Interested.
Chief, Where is the lawsuit to get your benefits back? The ones that stripped of your benefits were the same that denied the National Guard How is this possible to stand?

I have been saying this since my first testimony in February 2021: intelligence on Jan. 6 was handled differently than any other major event. There was no Joint Intelligence Bulletin and no FBI call with area chiefs warning of a violent attack. As for pre-event coordination, I personally organized a video call at 1:00 p.m. on January 5 with all partner agencies, including the Director of the FBI’s Washington Field Office—and no one from the Bureau warned of any impending violence.
The FBI had intelligence from Confidential Humans Sources (CHS) that January 6 was going to be a lot worse, yet significant security failures still occurred and the Capitol was still breached. Watch⬇️

Five years after Jan 6, many people are still hurting. Political oversight of Capitol security remains an issue. We cannot truly come together as a nation until there is a full, honest accounting of the facts, and the Intel analysts and whistleblowers who spoke up and were punished are made whole. Accountability matters. @SpeakerJohnson @RepLoudermilk @AGPamBondi

On February 1, 2021, I formally notified Congressional leadership in writing of my sincere willingness to assist in any and all investigations into January 6. I received no response. In that letter, I detailed my actions, efforts, and frustrations both before and during January 6. Specifically, prior to January 6, I made multiple requests for additional security resources to protect my officers and the Capitol. Those requests were denied. On January 6, as the situation rapidly deteriorated, I made nearly a dozen urgent requests for assistance and waited more than 70 agonizing minutes for my superiors to act. My requests were denied again and again. During that time, officers were injured, overwhelmed, and left without the support they desperately needed. With lives at risk, I could not wait any longer. I began personally contacting every police chief I had in my contacts to secure immediate support. I documented all of this in my letter to Speaker Pelosi, Leader McConnell, Leader McCarthy, and Leader Hoyer. My letter was ignored. Only weeks later, after the letter was leaked to CNN, did multiple Members of Congress formally demand answers as to why my requests were denied. They, too, received no response. This silence is not a matter of oversight; it is a failure of accountability. The facts were provided early, in writing, and repeatedly. I have always stood ready to testify and assist. It is time for those who denied these requests, and those who ignored them afterward, to explain their decisions, correct the record, and ensure this failure is never repeated. @Real_RobN @AGPamBondi @realDonaldTrump @RepLoudermilk @EdMartinDOJ @SpeakerPelosi
Here is: The Chief of Capitol Police, Steven Sund, who OVERSAW the entirety of January 6th. @ChiefSund: “Ask yourself why the Jan. 6 Committee never requested that I come in to publicly testify. Think about that—I am the Chief of Capitol Police.” 📝 In other words, the single most important figure of January 6th was prevented deliberately from testifying by Nancy Pelosi and her gang, the J6 Committee.

The dangers faced by police officers working on our highways cannot be overstated. Traffic stops and roadway details remain among the most dangerous assignments in law enforcement. I appreciate Craig Floyd (@CitizensBTB) for recently meeting with the Director of the NYSB to again elevate awareness of this ongoing threat against our officers. We don’t need to loose officers to this senseless threat.

As someone who has deployed with the National Guard in D.C. and administered the oath to thousands who helped secure this city, I find @BennieGThompson's comments disgusting and reprehensible. This was not an “unfortunate accident.” It was a targeted assassination and terrorist attack on two of our soldiers. They deserve better—and he owes them an apology. And frankly, I’m not surprised. This is the same former Jan. 6 Chair who blocked my public testimony about repeated National Guard denials from @SpeakerPelosi's team—denials Congress now admits could have prevented January 6. @Sec_Noem @USNationalGuard @DCGuard1802 @SpeakerJohnson
Rep. Thompson says it was just an "unfortunate accident" that two National Guardsmen were shot in DC by an Afghan illegal. Insane. Sec. Noem goes OFF: "An unfortunate accident? It was a terrorist attack. He shot our National Guardsmen in the head."

J6 Subcommittee Chair Says Nancy Pelosi and Liz Cheney Will Be Dragged In And Questioned Over Roles In January 6th: "We're looking at doing this as we continue down this path. We are not stopping our search for the truth. There is a political element to almost every aspect of this. Political influence on investigation. Political influence on the Select Committee. Political influence from agencies."
