. . ."January 6, of course, proved to be a Reichstag moment, but in precisely the opposite way Milley suggested. Democratic Party leadership responded to the riot much the way the Nazi leadership responded to the Reichstag fire, namely using an event of ambiguous origin as pretext to suppress speech and imprison its political opponents." . . .
. . . "In a September 20, 2024 press release, Loudermilk added further proof of Trump’s request for support: “The transcripts released [from the DoD IG report] show Trump gave senior Pentagon leadership directives to keep January 6 peaceful -- including using the National Guard -- which the Pentagon leaders ignored.” The release then quotes Loudermilk directly as saying, “Pentagon leadership prioritized concerns of optics over their duty to protect lives.”
"To make his case, Loudermilk shared some direct quotes from Milley and others. When interviewed by the Department of Defense’s inspector general in 2021, Milley quoted Trump as saying, “Hey, look at this. There’s going to be a large amount of protesters here on the 6th, make sure that you have sufficient National Guard or Soldiers to make sure it’s a safe event.” Again according to Milley, Trump added, “Hey, I don’t care if you use Guard, or Soldiers, active duty Soldiers, do whatever you have to do. Just make sure it’s safe.”
"Acting U.S. Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller also heard Trump’s say “that they were going to need 10,000 troops.” As Miller admitted in May 2021 at a Democrat-led House hearing, he did not check with President Trump after the riot started because he did not need to." . . .
