DC National Guard whistleblowers to tell Congress they were ready to go on J6 after Trump authorized their deployment, but Pentagon held them back

Three Washington DC National Guard troops are to testify in Congress that former President Donald Trump wanted them to be at the Capitol on January 6 during the protests, but they were delayed by the Pentagon. The troops are expected to contradict the story of the Democrat-led January 6 Committee. 

According to a report from the Daily Mail, the National Guard troops are blowing the whistle on the situation, calling into question the efficacy of the story told by the J6 Committee on Trump's actions taken that day.  

The officers, in speaking to the outlet, revealed that their stories were ignored by the Democrat-led committee because they did not fit the narrative. The hearing is set to further underscore that Acting Defense Secretary at the time Christopher Miller did give approval for the deployment of the DC National Guard at Trump's direction.  

A source familiar with the matter told the outlet that the National Guard troops will provide testimony showing that then-Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy delayed the action for at least a couple hours to notify DC National Guard Commander William Walker to send the troops over to the Capitol building. The three troops were on active duty at the time and will testify on how the breakdown in military communication led to the delay in getting the troops to the Capitol. 

The troops were there that day with Walker and will testify to how they were waiting hours on buses in full tactical gear and waiting to be given the green light to go to the Capitol building.  

The congressional hearing scheduled for next Wednesday is called, "Three Years Later: D.C. National Guard Whistleblowers Speak Out on January 6 Delay."
