Transcript Reveals Trump Admin's Push for National Guard on Jan. 6

The Jan. 6 committee faces scrutiny over allegedly suppressing evidence of the Trump administration's efforts to secure the Capitol.

Newly released transcript reveals Trump administration's efforts to deploy 10,000 National Guard troops to protect the Capitol on Jan. 6, contradicting previous claims by the Jan. 6 committee.
The transcript, from an interview with former Deputy Chief of Staff Anthony Ornato, was allegedly suppressed by the committee, led by former Rep. Liz Cheney.
Ornato's testimony indicates the Trump White House was proactive in seeking National Guard support, in contrast to narratives suggesting inaction or obstruction.
The release of the transcript has sparked criticism of the Jan. 6 committee's handling of evidence and raised questions about the completeness of its final report.
The controversy highlights ongoing debates over the events of Jan. 6 and the political implications of the committee's findings.
