Why Didn't Pelosi & McConnell Request The National Guard For J6?

Tucker interviewed Capitol Police Chief, Steven Sund. The interview took place at Fox and was never aired. Gotta wonder why. Regardless, Tucker now operates independently, re-did the interview and it's now out on YouTube. About 55 minutes long, and worth watching.

Takeaways:
Why was the intelligence regarding potential threats withheld from the Capitol Police?
Why did Pelosi & McConnell ignore the threats and decline assistance from the National Guard?

Below is the Capitol Police's documented timeline of what transpired up to Jan. 6th:
The police acknowledge the threat of opposing protest groups no later than Dec. 16th.
They begin developing their actions plan Dec. 18th.
As days pass, the threat assessment escalates.
On Jan. 2, Carol Corbin of the Dep't of Defense reaches out to Deputy Chief, Sean Gallagher to ask if Nat Guard resources are needed.
On Jan. 3, no request forthcoming.
On Jan. 4, Sund contacts the Sergeant of Arms of both the House & Senate to requests authorization for the Nat Guard, and is denied.
- remember that at the point Sund makes this request, Trump has already given authorization (per Sec of Defense Chris Miller's testimony), and Sund doesn't have a complete picture of the full threat.

I would love to see y'alls reaction if it was a bunch of black people or people storming for worker's rights or against police brutality.

I would just love to see what that outcome would have been and what y'alls reaction would have been.

(Now cue the random pick of some token minority standing next to a comfederate flag in jan.6th)

@BizSuitStacy I'm not changing any subject to anything Sir Logical Fallacies.

@MethDozer Sir Lying Sack o 💩 changes subject to racism. Then says, ugghhh, I didn't change the subject. 🙄

So...why didn't Pelosi & McConnell request the NG when there was ample intelligence of the attack ahead of time?

MethDozer · M

@BizSuitStacy I didn't change the subject to racism.

What are tou suggesting? They paid these people to storm? Or that (((they))) planned it and sent them there??

Or just as stupid, that because tje National Guard wasn't called to open fire and escalate a situation that it somehow means there was no failed insurection?

Please help us navigate your absurd mental gymnastics.

@MethDozer maybe you don't understand...the question is why didn't Pelosi & McConnell request the NG? Your speculatory questions can't be answered otherwise.
