Former Acting Defense Secretary Meets With Jan. 6 Committee

[ouch]

Appears to be a very good one to hear what he has to say about the 1/6 assault on our Capitol.

Former Acting Defense Secretary Meets With Jan. 6 Committee

The meeting came as the committee ramps up its probe, issuing more subpoenas and requesting several GOP lawmakers voluntarily testify.

It was not immediately clear what Miller discussed with the panel. The former Pentagon chief has provided conflicting testimony to Congress in the past, at one time saying that former President Donald Trump had "encouraged the protesters" with his remarks on Jan. 6 and then later saying he believed an "organized conspiracy" played a role in the Capitol attack.




I'm going with both!

Sounds like he's going to rope a dope the Committee.

Shouldn't be hard to do.

I guess it should have been a bipartisan commission then, huh?

Of only the Rs listed out all their demands for a bipartisan commission, and then the Ds agreed to all of their demands, and then the Rs moved forward with the agreed-upon commission instead of backing out when the Ds called their bluff and agreed to all of their demands, we would have a respectable investigation that nobody could foolishly consider a dopish "dog and pony show" full of partisan Ds that should be easy for witnesses to fool.

If only they tried to do that, huh?

I have high suspicion that Miller will provide a lot of rope and reference one big dope.

"....protect the demonstrators...."

Imagine how stupid one has to be to believe Trump won in a “landslide victory” in 2020.

The House Oversight Committee has already tested the waters about what Former Acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller knew about the NG being held back. His concern was that it would look like a military coup with our NG purposely put in place ahead of the assault. Little did we know that a different coup attempt would be tried by paramilitary - militia types known as Trump supporters.

Trump wanted troops to protect his supporters at Jan. 6 rally

President Donald Trump wanted National Guard troops in Washington to protect his supporters at a Jan. 6 rally that ended with them attacking the U.S. Capitol, leaving five dead, Trump's former Pentagon chief testified on Wednesday.

www.reuters.com

Former Acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller told a House of Representatives panel that he spoke with Trump on Jan. 3, three days before the now-former president's fiery speech that preceded the violence and led to his second impeachment.


Miller testified that the U.S. military was deliberately restrained that day when Trump's rally turned into an assault by hundreds of his followers that left five dead, including a Capitol Police officer.

Miller testified that he was concerned in the days before Jan. 6 that sending National Guard troops to Washington would fan fears of a military coup or that Trump advisers were advocating martial law.

No news here. If he had said anything of substance the democrats would already have leaked it. Adam Schiff is still holding back the evidence that provided the "evidence that was more than circumstantial" proving Trumps guilt. That committee is very resemblant of the Impeachment managers and contains only 2 republican turncoats who hate Trump. The bipartisan members of the republican party were not seated by Pelosi and that's when the rest of the republicans boycotted at you claim.

Thats a neat story. Thanks for your opinion.

Why would you seat people who voted to not accept the election results? They would have turned it into a shit show and we all know it.

No. This is the kind of stuff that Congress should be investigating.
The majority party chose to not allow the minority party to name its own members.
The minority party subsequently refused to permit its members to be on it.

Both parties bear responsibility for it not being a respectable investigation.

If only McCasrthy didn't try to put people on that obviously supported the insurrection, and actually done their constructional deity. I means, it's like Matt Gaetz being on the House Judiciary Committee to investigate himself for the sex crimes he is alleged to have committed.

You are simply wrong.

They reached a bipartisan deal:

Congressional leaders reach deal on Jan. 6 commission, but McCarthy has concerns

Moments after the agreement for the 9/11-style commission was announced, the House minority leader said he hadn't signed off.

www.nbcnews.com

Democrats agreed to nearly all GOP demands for the panel, including equal party representation, shared subpoena power and mandating that a report be released by the end of the year.

But the bill’s prospect for passage looks extremely dim in the upper chamber thanks to opposition from Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), who called it “slanted.”

GOP Opposition To Jan. 6 Commission Bolsters Case For Filibuster Reform, Democrats Say

One Democratic senator said Republicans' refusal to accept a bipartisan commission to investigate the Jan. 6 Capitol riot will "make the point that the filibuster is primarily a destructive force in American politics.”

It's already been reported (to some extent) what Miller has told the House Oversight Committee this past Spring/Summer, I believe. Now he gets to tell what he knows to the 1/6 Committee. Remain calm - there's plenty of other folks who will possibly spill major beans on the cult leader of interest - then you'll have something to get nervous about.

Only because the Dems called his bluff and agreed to the R's demands, which is what bipartisanship looks like.
