House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is not interested in a genuine examination of the events on Jan. 6. An honest review of the day’s timeline might reveal why.
As the U.S. Capitol building came under siege, House Sergeant at Arms Paul Irving sought approval from Pelosi to dispatch the National Guard in an episode confirmed by the speaker’s office to The New York Times. Four days later, former Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund, who resigned his post in the riot’s aftermath, told the Washington Post it was far from the first time National Guard reinforcements were requested. In fact, Sund told the paper the request was made six times.
Sund said Irving, overseen by Pelosi, thought the guard’s deployment was bad “optics” two days before the raid. Pelosi and House Democrats had previously condemned the presence of federal troops in the nation’s capital to quell the sustained insurrection of left-wing anarchists. A month later, the Daily Caller reported Irving’s discussions with the speaker’s office were factors in his “blender of decision making,” citing three sources familiar with Irving’s talks with the House Administration Committee.
Only one side has handed over the relevant documents to Republican investigators to support their claims. It isn’t those subservient to Pelosi.
In a letter to the speaker on Monday, House Republicans independently probing the Capitol riot outlined at least four times last year that House deputies under Pelosi’s command denied requests to review documents shedding light on the security decisions of Jan. 6.
“There is irony in the fact that at the same time House Democrats are holding witnesses in criminal contempt of Congress for raising genuine questions of legal privilege,” wrote Illinois Rep. Rodney Davis, “you continue to obstruct Republican access to House records relating to the security preparedness of the Capitol complex.”

Yet another B.S. witch hunt., If it was not for government cointel pro, There would be no capitol riot!!!
Of course, the commie is hiding something. In the meantime, the most honest and transparent president of my lifetime, Donald J Trump, is laying out everything in the open. He and his team are not hiding anything. The contrast could not be clearer. Who in their right mind still supports anyone but Trump?
The leftists of course, but that is expected, they are communists.
Who on the right doesn't support him is the right question, and the question to be asked, because those on the right who don't support him are much more disturbing, especially given the state of the country.
I agree with you, Ilona and mlopez. These people are not in their right mind. They need to be sent to a mental asylum and/or to a re-education camp. There is no way around that since the left media has poisoned their minds.
What is she hiding? The truth!
Nutty nan is one of the most evil devildemocommiecrats to ever infest our ( or formerly our) government. She ranks right up there with hitlery clinton!!!!! She is blocking access because if what really happened got out officially she would be toast and she knows it!!!!! Her insatiable lust for power, combined with the overindulgence of booze and botox, has left her totally unhinged mentally and under the total control of satan!!!!! All of the devildemocommiecrats are working for satan and will spend their eternity in the Lake of Fire with hum!!!!!!!!!!
She's hiding the C.D.P.'s Coup.
She needs to be arrested and charged with treason, election interference, rico, attempt to overthrow a duly elected President... money laundering, insider trading, lying under oath, rigged elections...the republicans let her continue to get away with it. Where's her laptop? Case and point, there's no way this old bag could have been in office for 40 yrs without rigging her elections, or buying her way back in office.
a rope necktie and a quick drop would be justice for this satanic, booze addled, TREASONOUS, skank!!!!!!!!!!
You got that right
