I stand by every decision I made on January 6th, former Trump official tells Congress

‘I stand by every decision I made on January 6th,’ former Trump official tells Congress Updated May 12, 2021; WASHINGTON The former acting U.S. defense chief and former acting attorney general during Donald Trump’s last weeks in office defended their responses to the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol under sharp questions from Democrats on intelligence failures and delays. “The federal government was unprepared for this insurrection even though it was planned in plain sight on social media,” House Oversight Chair Carolyn Maloney said Wednesday at the panel’s hearing on the insurrection and the events leading up to it.

Military response during Capitol riot questioned

Military response during Capitol riot questioned Despite a three-and-a-half-hour delay following a request for more National Guard troops, Trump s Acting Defense Sec. Miller said the response was appropriate. Author: Mike Gooding Updated: 5:42 PM EDT May 12, 2021 WASHINGTON The Trump administration s top military official defended his actions during the January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol. Former Acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller said Wednesday that the Department of Defense s response was appropriate, despite criticism that military forces were too slow to arrive as pro-Trump rioters overran Capitol police and breached the building. Despite the three-and-a-half-hour lag before additional National Guard troops were approved, Miller defended his actions and the military s involvement in the Jan. 6 insurrection.

During a hearing that frequently slid into partisan sniping from both sides, Mr. Miller praised the work of the D.C. National Guard during the rioting. “The Department of Defense and our members of the armed forces performed magnificently,” he said. “I stand by every decision I made.” Democrats on the committee accused President Trump of inciting the attack on the U.S. Capitol and criticized Mr. Miller for what they said were needless delays in mobilizing National Guard troops to quell the rioting. “The world looked to the Department of Defense to protect our government from attack,” said Committee Chairwoman Carolyn Maloney, a Democrat from New York. “Yet, the Department of Defense did not authorize the deployment of D.C. National Guard troops to the capital until nearly four hours after local officials first pleaded for help.”
