Hey jackass, is this how to "look at facts"? When Pelosi's committee found facts they shitcanned them.
Jan 6 committee suppressed testimony showing Trump admin pushed for National Guard presence
--------------------------------------------------
The Jan. 6 congressional committee allegedly falsely claimed it did not have evidence that showed former President Trump’s administration requested National Guard assistance, according to a report detailing a "hidden transcript" that was recently released.
"The former J6 Select Committee apparently withheld Mr. Ornato’s critical witness testimony from the American people because it contradicted their pre-determined narrative. Mr. Ornato’s testimony proves what Mr. Meadows has said all along: President Trump did in fact offer 10,000 National Guard troops to secure the U.S. Capitol, which was turned down," Georgia Republican Rep. Barry Loudermilk said in a statement on Friday.....

Perhaps you should get your "facts" from someone besides Lez Cheney.

Fact check: Trump did not request 10,000 Guard troops for Jan. 6 (usatoday.com)
"Conservative news outlets and social media posts claimed the Jan. 6 select committee "suppressed testimony" from Ornato that proves Trump pushed for 10,000 National Guard troops at the Capitol.
The select committee did not release this transcribed interview with Ornato because it was under the Department of Homeland Security’s review. As a former Secret Service member, Ornato’s transcript needed to be reviewed for potential security concerns.
The select committee considered Ornato’s and other Secret Service testimony when publishing its final report on the Jan. 6, 2021, attack. The report concluded that Trump did not directly order deploying 10,000 National Guard troops before or during the attack. Ornato’s interview transcript does not negate this finding.
"We rate the claim that the Jan. 6 select committee "suppressed testimony" involving 10,000 National Guard troops False."

"Former President Donald Trump did raise the possibility of calling out 10,000 National Guard troops on Jan. 6, 2021, but it wasn’t to quell violence by his supporters; it was to protect him on a planned march to the U.S. Capitol that day, the House select committee revealed in its Capitol riot report released Thursday."

“You know, Trump has only asked me for two things,” said Matthew Walter, who has pleaded not guilty to nine charges connection to the riot. “He asked me for my vote, and he asked me to come on January 6.”
"Eric Barber, who pleaded guilty in December to theft and illegally entering the Capitol, said that Trump “personally asked for us to come to DC that day, and I thought for everything he's done for us, that this is the only thing he's gonna ask of me, I'll do it.”

Fact checking your fact checker: Straw man argument Trump never claimed that he "requested" 10,000 national guard troops. Nancy Pelosi was wholly in charge of capitol security. Trump recommended and offered 10,000 national guard troops to Pelosi. She said No.
But I wouldn't expect anything besides lies from the mainstream media USA Today.
File under "Checking facts not in evidence".

Instead, half of capitol police were diverted to RNC and DNC headquarters where bombs had been planted which the capitol police provably knew to be duds.

ALL media are lying except: Trump, Newmax, Fox News, OAN, Steve Bannon, and who else?
If you plan to march to the capitol to overthrow an election, you need 10,000 troops to escort you.
“Defense officials wanted the authorities in Washington to use the local police and other law enforcement agencies to confront the protesters, with the National Guard troops in support but not in the lead, to avoid the specter of a military battling election protests.”
“Defense officials, smarting from outcry to military's heavy involvement in June protests, sought limited role and to shield military from politics.”
Were Requests To Deploy National Guard Initially Denied During Capitol Riots? | Snopes.com
Again with "REQUEST". Get this through your thick fckn skull. Presidents have no authority to "request" national guard troops in the capitol. A president "requesting" them there would violate the Constitution. The Constitution places congress in charge of congressional rules, and therefore congressional security.
