CNN's Jake Tapper presses National Guard Chief Daniel Hokanson for answers as to why the National Guard took so long to arrive at the Capitol riot. #CNN #News
Exactly but it wasn’t a protest, it was a domestic terrorist attack. Like imagine how terrifying it is knowing how easy it is for a terrorist to attack our nation’s Capital now.
@Trump 2020 will you come back here and make a retraction if things go opposite from what you've predicted? from where I sit, this is another Dem administration inheriting a huge deficit from a Rep run administration, and they've always managed to leave a surplus on the table...ijs
I am curious how the flowchart the National Guard uses to deploy their troops looks. There's probably a decision box asking checking if the Protestors are either black or white. And if they are black it goes straight to the immediate deployment step
I feel like they made sure to send the one guy with no "official information" on the actual question. He wouldn't be lying, if he was really kept in the dark. That said, I'm surprised a career general is willing to go in front of camera without anything resembling armor or real answers.
If it was a surprise, 8-10 hours is not bad for such a mission. The fact that it was a surprise is the problem. People in positions to plan and execute knew what was going to happen and they helped the insurrectionists. They helped by dismissing the threat and keeping the capital vulnerable. These are the same minds who conduct drone Ops and blame Obama when they kill innocent Muslim families. They're quislings. Quislings. Their foreign government is their ideology.
Listen. These chains of command are tight and NO they DONT know alot. They are soldiers. They don't think they act and take command. Trained not to question, just perform. So, im not surprised whether he is lying or not
“I don’t like the visual of the national guard holdin a police line wit the capitol In the background”.. Shidd they were chillin on the steps during BLM protest..
@@erichughes284 minus the 5 people that died, some on camera for the world to see them take their last breath and the folks that are currently facing federal charges, I guess you’re right smh
How about that grand visual of them pepper bombing and roughing up peaceful crowds with helicopters running up and down the corridors? Did he prefer that one? Oh wait, that's right, none of those officers had identifying badges, did they? Good thing we recognized faces of the generals on site calling the shots.
@Tommy Thompson damn dude, you're really striking out today. Do you even have two brain cells to rub together? We'll make it really simple for little ol' you and we'll leave race out if this. Why is the MAYOR responsible for inaction? Couldn't the PRESIDENT have instantly mobilized any nearby force he wanted? Pass the buck much?
As a former military man, that is the dumbest most illogical response. "They had to be re-equipped". Seriously you didn't have other guard that would have been at the ready? Serious BS.
The fact that there were so many warning signs of potential mob violence and they had the guard units out directing traffic in civilian clothes. Absolutely ridiculous!
Tapper 'Was General Charles Flynn on that call?' Hokanson looks nervously to his right as if there was someone in the room 'I can not answer that question. I was not on that call' - mmmmm
And those panzies stood down!! HHAHAHHAHA.. oh my god I bet I could slap them all in the face they'd wait for order from Cheeto. Your "men" in the usa are anything but. Guns have made them into cowards.
I can see why he rose so high in the ranks. He's an excellent little mouth piece for the bosses. He's lying through his teeth, we all know it and HE KNOWS WE KNOW IT lol what a snake
All military and cops are ass-lickers. Its why the went into the business of lusting after male flesh to manhandle. Like Republicans desperate to shoot a leftist, its disguised passion. Hence the plethora of them who are into being sh*t on in s&m scenarios.
@@glendaavila6163Um yeah. That's literally what I just said. First sentence: "I can see why he rose so high in the ranks". And then proceded to explain why he rose through the ranks
You do not dis the brass above you in the military. Or you find yourself low in ranks or forced out of the service. Before they started to used. Discharges they either sent them to a part of the battle where you knew they would die or you had them executed.
No my son is in national guard he told me they must have been told not to go in b/c yes they are standing by for any emergency within minutes the sames as if were external forces he is lying they were told to stand down or permission was ignored
If they weren’t complicit they would have had security in place before the rally even started. They didn’t wait for BLM to do anything they had cops in riot gear lined up on the capitol steps to PREVENT the POSSIBILITY that things would get out of hand. Why didn’t they do the same thing here? I think we all know why unfortunately. Someone or several people on the inside WANTED this riot to be successful.
They're just asking leading questions that try to make it seem like they didn't cause the violence. They actually had someone in there reporting and causing violence. They, cnn are 100% busted. They interviewed the guy that they had there. It's fake media too the max.
Yes it took that long. Nothing can be done without orders. They cannot get rifles and live ammunition without orders from the Pentagon and that's for every state NG. Weapons cards have to be printed and distributed for accountability. Bullet proof vest have to collected and distributed. All of these take orders to be written, issued, and then cut through a chain of command. Furthermore, this equipment is not lying around at every NG "armory". Not every "armory" is an armory, it's just a name. Most of the riot gear and weapons systems are located, of course, on active duty installations, again, which requires orders to be issued and they have to know who's coming and when. Then you have to choose a mobilisation site, set the mission parameters, etc.etc.etc. Let's say this much, let's be glad it wasn't a foreign power and this will never happen again. There will most likely be an active NG unit manning DC onna rotational basis from here on out. And it won't be for traffic control.
@@junejosh Yeah, I really LOL'd at the Rapid Response Traffic Patrol that was doing what was planned days before (how is that "Rapid" when you pre-arrange it and then it took them hours to approve them to take house to get ready to control crowds). We'll just have to wait for all the receipts.
This is coming from the top and U who is sitting at the Top He wanted to Get everyone in house it doesn't matter if they were Republicans are Democrats THE ORDER went out leave NONE ALIVE.
The way he described it, YES! Just think if they had been foreign mercenaries....just think, a lot of politicians would have been killed. NOW they know they can penetrate the capital. The reason the WHITE police didn't shoot the WHITE anarchists is because they were WHITE.
@@errolcurrie5694 I missed that report! Give me the link so I can broadcast it to the masses, Thats a BLOCK BUSTER! An actual order given to kill everyone in Congress!!!

@Brooke Baldvag Ad hominem, 'A' holds a property that is unwelcome, and hence 'B' concludes that argument x is wrong: "Jake Tapper is under investigation for fondling young boys and has disturbing pictures of young boys on his laptop" thus everything he says is bullshit.
A few of my friends who got called in told me how it was some bs. One friend told me "if they truly wanted us out there armed and ready to stop them we've would've been out there and stopped them way before they even got to the capital"
Were alll engrossed in Europe with the drama, unfolding. It's apparent, all aspects of USA has been infiltrated by bigots, directed by a schadenfreude potus. I hope the decent majority get their nation back.
Call went as follows: "There's a riot coming. Send in the National Guard!" "Are they black?" "No, they're white supremacists." "Oh okay. We'll be there eventually."
Even though this comment is not easy to read for MANY reasons, sadly it’s the truth. Color of skin is so determinative in this equation. Sad state of affairs.
When he first found out. How can he first find out after the fact, when everyone knew it was going to happen months before the election? Our "National Unteligence," is not that stupid.
I think he is trying to be truthfull. He couldn’t have been in the room when the first calls were made by the Capitol Police but he should have been notified of the call and quizzed about the status of what troops would be necessary to answer the call. What happened next is the key. Something delayed the approval
@Cameron Brantley I served. I'm well aware that you don't openly criticize leadership in the military. As Jake Tapper pointed out several times in this interview, the delay was due to a lack of orders from higher ups such as the Secretary of the Army and the Secretary of the DOD. They are the ones to blame.
no it's called not answering questions you don't know the answer to instead of saying what you think people want to hear and causing more problems. he is not respectable enough to believe but tapper the journalist is great at drilling him. that's so backwards but it's the Dems way.
He is flat lying about the deployment of the rapid response team. I was an armoured crewman in the country's 1st Rapid deployment force - created for the Iran hostage crisis- and for him to try and run the line of B.S. that the RDF is a unit of MPs to control traffic is the most ludicrous idea the Pentagon could try to push. RDFs are COMBAT units period.

They were announcing their plans days ahead, lots of warning to get prepared and in position. To be caught off guard like that is either negligence or "wait and see"...
We are like Dori the fish, Americas forget what they don't want to admit and remember. Others who do things to hurt democracy count on the fact that we are so easily distracted and forgetful. Also there are way to many people who don't know which side their bread is buttered on. The white middle class went with Ronald Reagon who gutted the unions and American workers, which resulted in the fall of the American middle class, then those who benefited , the corporate elite use the politician and media to point the finger at the lower economic / people of color groups.
That's what I took from this. He tried VERY hard to give an answer that wouldn't throw his chain of command under the bus. In the military, you do not speak ill of your superiors.
Colonel was 4 promotions ago there speedy. Colonel to Brigadier Gen to Major Gen to Lieutenant Gen to General. BMLG Be My Little General. He has all the stars anyone is allowed in peace time. I have a hunch that he may be retired very soon.
“Where was the rapid response force?” “They were trained for traffic control...” Sure, all those grueling “traffic control” drills during basic training.
Seriously, this is pathetic. Apparently one of the most secure buildings in the country with the largest and most powerful defense forces - is completely helpless against a mob of protesters.. And 8 - 10 hour response time? WTF? This is a joke and makes us look pathetic as a country
Imagine AlQaeda being shown how easy it is to get weapons and bombs into Capitol Hill !!! That's what these criminals have done among other things. Defence budget is 720 billion ..
Whenever someone at this high a level says: "I'm not aware of any such orders given''...................."Not that I'm aware of'' they're almost always lying.
Many quislings in government from private to general. That's why secular mentality in civil service is so important. Our government is setup to help and support a crusade of sort. That's the catalyst of Q-Anon. Religious zealots and radicals in positions they should not be due to oversight or consciously through the Quisling Q's.
Immediately after Trump lost, he began replacing Pentagon high up leaders and I, who am nobody in our government, said, Oh, bleep! What is Trump up to, now?" It seemed no one but me seemed to share my foreboding. Then came January 6th, and I knew this was why all those Pentagon persons were replaced. Why was no one alarmed about Trump's actions prior to the 6th?. Had we learned nothing about that man?
So much so for the National "Guard." It turns out, according to this gentleman, that their real duty is to direct traffic? Give me a break. This guy is insulting the National Guard. We do expect integrity and honesty from our soldiers, no? What would Senators Duckworth and McCain think?
No offense to the guard, but the majority is made of up weekend warriors that want to be in the military, but don’t want to commit 100%. They’re the bottom of the totem pole in regards to military branches.
@A Mexican Bat I mean it’s true, they still get the military training and all that...but in regards to the armed forces, they kinda get laughed at. I knew an Iraq veteran that felt that way.
That General sounded shaky like a man caught with his pants down. I think there was a deliberate attempt by the National Guard to delay... it is a shame and a full probe to weed out those that were responsible is needed. If found guilty they need to be prosecuted by court martial and sent to prison. No excuse.
@Dan H You know, the more I think about it... maybe he is trying to tell us something? From the comments it's become clear that NO ONE believes he is being honest. Is he doing a hack job to let us know there's a hack job going on? Ugh, I'm tired of second-guessing these people.
The General is telling the truth. If a regular National Guard force is going to be deployed (without prior notice, or being on "Alert" status), the time required is measured in several hours--not a couple of hours. If a National Guard force is in "Alert" status, then sure--they can be deployed/redeployed or re-tasked in minutes (if they are properly equipped (which includes communications), and have been briefed on their duties).
@@kenc2257 No matter what is said, the cold hard truth is that the planning was done early and the force displayed massive for BLM, but was sorely lacking last Wednesday. It's not as if there weren't indications - as per the goings on in Michigan, and the postings on social media - that all hell could break loose.
david thomas I agree...the delay in response IMO was to give the domestic terrorist time to hunt and most likely kill Pence, Polosi and others in the senate and house chambers. Again IMO this was what trump was looking for too happen.
General Chaos talking to Jake here is happily convinced everyone listening to him is swallowing his bald faced lies and pies whole with clotted cream. We're all stupid, did we know that? Now we do. Those soldiers had to put their uniforms on, then sit down with the weekday coach from the high school for a briefing and a pep talk. Which took 'em ten hours. We should be grateful for whut we got.
First the general says it takes the National Guard 8-12 hrs to respond to a call. Later on he said they got there at 11 pm and that was great cos it’s usually a 24 hr response time. Wtf good are they? Didn’t take em long to show up at BLM protests, and not just ones that were announced ahead of time. Peaceful protesters get pepper sprayed so trump gets a photo op with a bible. His MAGATs get to invade the Capital with guns & zip ties yelling to hang Pence, and he still won’t use the 25th. McTurtle & most of the repubs still supporting him should lose their seats for complying with the president
Operator: "911 what's your emergency?" Caller: "We have an insurrection taking place at the Capitol and we need help!" Operator: "The National Guard tells me they are making preparations and should be there in 8-10 hours."
BLM protests: Operator: "911 what's your emergency?" Caller: "We have riots taking place in the city and we need help!" Operator: "Okay sir, SWAT, SEAL TEAM 6, Delta Force, FBI, DEA, and ICE are on their way, hold tight"
How long did it take to prepare for BLM? Why were they not prepared for the 6th? They heard ahead of time about BLM protests but not about the Trump protests? That makes no sense.
Why were they lined up and ready during the BLM protests, but hours late during this recent protest?
It’s simple they hate black people and America.
Exactly but it wasn’t a protest, it was a domestic terrorist attack. Like imagine how terrifying it is knowing how easy it is for a terrorist to attack our nation’s Capital now.

Seriously if it takes the national guard 8-10 hrs to mobilize how safe are we? If that's the response time anyone could attack us even Canada.
Yes it took that long. Nothing can be done without orders. They cannot get rifles and live ammunition without orders from the Pentagon and that's for every state NG. Weapons cards have to be printed and distributed for accountability. Bullet proof vest have to collected and distributed. All of these take orders to be written, issued, and then cut through a chain of command. Furthermore, this equipment is not lying around at every NG "armory". Not every "armory" is an armory, it's just a name. Most of the riot gear and weapons systems are located, of course, on active duty installations, again, which requires orders to be issued and they have to know who's coming and when. Then you have to choose a mobilisation site, set the mission parameters, etc.etc.etc. Let's say this much, let's be glad it wasn't a foreign power and this will never happen again.

@@junejosh Yeah, I really LOL'd at the Rapid Response Traffic Patrol that was doing what was planned days before (how is that "Rapid" when you pre-arrange it and then it took them hours to approve them to take house to get ready to control crowds).
We'll just have to wait for all the receipts.
I hope Biden fires this irresponsible General.
Seems like a lot of people trying to pass the buck
This is coming from the top and U who is sitting at the Top He wanted to Get everyone in house it doesn't matter if they were Republicans are Democrats THE ORDER went out leave NONE ALIVE.
The way he described it, YES! Just think if they had been foreign mercenaries....just think, a lot of politicians would have been killed. NOW they know they can penetrate the capital.
The reason the WHITE police didn't shoot the WHITE anarchists is because they were WHITE.

Something didn’t ring true
He didn’t want to go against his people he will never answer the real questions
Love the way Jake grilled him and the chief was choking.

Right. Take a shot every time this man clearly swallows out of discomfort
@Brooke Baldvag This is how the lies get spread on social media . Stay on topic .
@Brooke Baldvag Ad hominem, 'A' holds a property that is unwelcome, and hence 'B' concludes that argument x is wrong:
"Jake Tapper is under investigation for fondling young boys and has disturbing pictures of young boys on his laptop" thus everything he says is bullshit.
Heidi Weber Tapper got the BIG NOTHING
Even the boy scouts motto is "Be Prepared".
This liar is choking on his lying words. He's part of the failed coup, Jake was too easy on him he should have pressed him harder.
A few of my friends who got called in told me how it was some bs. One friend told me "if they truly wanted us out there armed and ready to stop them we've would've been out there and stopped them way before they even got to the capital"
Thank you for your post. I totally believe you. Surprised you didn’t get a lot of Likes 👍🏼.
Investigations should be started quickly. This was a disgrace.
Preferably before the same thing happens at the inauguration
Agree
I agree. Investigate every member of Congress.
Something doesn't add up with this National Chief's replies.
George Man....He's choosing his words carefully because Trump still has the power to fire him,
He is lying so badly and it is disgusting!!!
This was propaganda, and some of the most "non-answer" answers I have ever heard.

Call went as follows:
"There's a riot coming. Send in the National Guard!"
"Are they black?"
"No, they're white supremacists."
"Oh okay. We'll be there eventually."
laugh my butt off you're actually right about that and that's exactly went down @ Mr. Jonathon Sawyer

So true!
So true. I wish you were wrong.
Even though this comment is not easy to read for MANY reasons, sadly it’s the truth. Color of skin is so determinative in this equation. Sad state of affairs.
If the NG needs 8-10 hours to respond to a dire emergency in their own city, what is the point of the NG?
To kidnap equal rights protesters

When he first found out. How can he first find out after the fact, when everyone knew it was going to happen months before the election?
Our "National Unteligence," is not that stupid.
He is lying, there was a lot going on!
He talked enough, but said nothing!
He's not allowed to say anything. In the military you aren't supposed to say or do anything that could negatively reflect on your leaders.
I think he is trying to be truthfull. He couldn’t have been in the room when the first calls were made by the Capitol Police but he should have been notified of the call and quizzed about the status of what troops would be necessary to answer the call. What happened next is the key. Something delayed the approval
@Cameron Brantley I served. I'm well aware that you don't openly criticize leadership in the military.
As Jake Tapper pointed out several times in this interview, the delay was due to a lack of orders from higher ups such as the Secretary of the Army and the Secretary of the DOD. They are the ones to blame.
He is doing his job he isn't lying. He most likely wasn't in the room when everything first began.
@Cameron Brantley
Yes he does!
Biggest load of bs I've heard since Trump last opened his mouth!
D.C. Guard should be under the direct command of the D.C. mayor- essentially the same model as state Guard.
What about the Senators who continued to object to the vote count after Congress came back to the chamber?
There was no problem with the "visual" of the national guard in front of the Lincoln monument during a peaceful BLM protest.
yes, there was.

..czcams.com/video/ATm0ZfwInn0/video.html
Do they give out medals for obfuscation?
no it's called not answering questions you don't know the answer to instead of saying what you think people want to hear and causing more problems. he is not respectable enough to believe but tapper the journalist is great at drilling him. that's so backwards but it's the Dems way.
How did he get soo many medals with such benevolence...?
Lmao, yep! Masterful observation!
He is flat lying about the deployment of the rapid response team. I was an armoured crewman in the country's 1st Rapid deployment force - created for the Iran hostage crisis- and for him to try and run the line of B.S. that the RDF is a unit of MPs to control traffic is the most ludicrous idea the Pentagon could try to push. RDFs are COMBAT units period.
They should have already been properly equipped and briefed when they were doing traffic control.
Better questiion: Why werent they ready for this since they knew it was going to happen??
Apparently they were as ready as they wanted to be. Disgusting. Watching the videos of those officers being pummeled.
It’s just like 911. republicans attacked America and blamed it on innocent people.
It is so simple: Trumpitito order them NOT TO SHOW OR ELSE. That's it.
Because whyte privilege is a hell of a thing.
I’m surprised law enforcement isn’t outraged since one of their own died
You know the answer. They took pics and helped inbred terrorists into the Capitol...

He took one for the team....
Rhetorical conversation by Daniel Hakanson I belive this need to be investigated
They were announcing their plans days ahead, lots of warning to get prepared and in position. To be caught off guard like that is either negligence or "wait and see"...
Essentially the General is saying “our people don’t plan and/or prepare for the worst-case scenario“.

If it takes "8 hours" to assemble the National Guard in a case like this, imagine what would happen in a greater emergency.
Yeah, and he tried to claim that Maryland wasn't ready to roll the second they were allowed to. Flat lie. Maryland was READY.
This was the definition of 'greater'.
It didn't take 8 to 10 hours last summer during the protests.
Amen brother
And what could be a bigger emergency when the enemy is within
This is nonsense. They treat us like we’re stupid. Shame on you.
We are like Dori the fish, Americas forget what they don't want to admit and remember. Others who do things to hurt democracy count on the fact that we are so easily distracted and forgetful. Also there are way to many people who don't know which side their bread is buttered on. The white middle class went with Ronald Reagon who gutted the unions and American workers, which resulted in the fall of the American middle class, then those who benefited , the corporate elite use the politician and media to point the finger at the lower economic / people of color groups.
Everytime he says with Respect He's lying 🤥!!!!!!!!!!!!
It speaks a lot when the NG is more prepared for black folks than crowd of traitors attacking the capitol.
Especially when they know in advance. To them, white people are sacred - everyone else is dispensable.
Not shocking at all
Sorry
Sounds a little racist there buddy...... Let me ask you are you a veteran?.
I already know the answer or not but you are racist
thats because mayor bowser *denied* the assistance of the national guard when President Trump *authorized* them on JANUARY 3RD
This colonel is trying to tell Jake, that he was instructed to keep his pie hole shut about who gave the order to stand down!
That's what I took from this. He tried VERY hard to give an answer that wouldn't throw his chain of command under the bus. In the military, you do not speak ill of your superiors.
4 star General (look at shoulder boards, lots of twinkly useless stars)! But yeah, POS is covering butts!
Colonel was 4 promotions ago there speedy. Colonel to Brigadier Gen to Major Gen to Lieutenant Gen to General. BMLG Be My Little General. He has all the stars anyone is allowed in peace time. I have a hunch that he may be retired very soon.
I agree, isn't his job to know WTF happened? One would think days later, he'd have more information than he's offering.. 🙄
Why not spill the beans... Trump is a goner anyways.
They should eve been there already. Everyone knew what was going to happen. This stinks.
“Where was the rapid response force?” “They were trained for traffic control...” Sure, all those grueling “traffic control” drills during basic training.
"I couldnt answer that question..."
Isnt an answer.

Seriously, this is pathetic. Apparently one of the most secure buildings in the country with the largest and most powerful defense forces - is completely helpless against a mob of protesters.. And 8 - 10 hour response time? WTF? This is a joke and makes us look pathetic as a country
Imagine AlQaeda being shown how easy it is to get weapons and bombs into Capitol Hill !!! That's what these criminals have done among other things. Defence budget is 720 billion ..
not true. it is easy only for certain type of people. Otherwise ,we would have seen war planes hovering over the capitol

Not only for the National Guards but what about DC police. They were told not to show up that day. They weren't needed.
Many quislings in government from private to general. That's why secular mentality in civil service is so important. Our government is setup to help and support a crusade of sort. That's the catalyst of Q-Anon. Religious zealots and radicals in positions they should not be due to oversight or consciously through the Quisling Q's.
🎯🎯🎯
Immediately after Trump lost, he began replacing Pentagon high up leaders and I, who am nobody in our government, said, Oh, bleep! What is Trump up to, now?" It seemed no one but me seemed to share my foreboding. Then came January 6th, and I knew this was why all those Pentagon persons were replaced. Why was no one alarmed about Trump's actions prior to the 6th?. Had we learned nothing about that man?
From here over the pond it looks like a coordinated armed takeover of the Capitol would be a breeze? 🤔🇬🇧
Tapper: "Why the delay?"
Military guy: "Because the rioters were White".
The End.

@Dino Nanic I knew it. Your profile shows your account started on Dec 11, 2020. I know you're a troll now, possibly russian.
And because it was an inside job. Some police and officials working directly with Trump, supporting his illegal agenda.
Period!!! Point!!! Blank!!!
So much so for the National "Guard." It turns out, according to this gentleman, that their real duty is to direct traffic? Give me a break. This guy is insulting the National Guard. We do expect integrity and honesty from our soldiers, no? What would Senators Duckworth and McCain think?
No offense to the guard, but the majority is made of up weekend warriors that want to be in the military, but don’t want to commit 100%. They’re the bottom of the totem pole in regards to military branches.
@A Mexican Bat I mean it’s true, they still get the military training and all that...but in regards to the armed forces, they kinda get laughed at. I knew an Iraq veteran that felt that way.
@A Mexican Bat they’re the mall cops of the armed forces
Jail them all those violated our constitutional, I don't give a damn about those badges
...did you ever see the videos hacked from McCains laptop when he was in the Ukraine, search for them, he had some interesting videos of staged events
Jake is the best news anchor ever. Much respect
That General sounded shaky like a man caught with his pants down. I think there was a deliberate attempt by the National Guard to delay... it is a shame and a full probe to weed out those that were responsible is needed. If found guilty they need to be prosecuted by court martial and sent to prison. No excuse.
The General can’t even make his lies believable.
@Dan H You know, the more I think about it... maybe he is trying to tell us something? From the comments it's become clear that NO ONE believes he is being honest.
Is he doing a hack job to let us know there's a hack job going on?
Ugh, I'm tired of second-guessing these people.
This man failed to do his tax payed job. Replace him with someone that can actually protect his people.
The General is telling the truth. If a regular National Guard force is going to be deployed (without prior notice, or being on "Alert" status), the time required is measured in several hours--not a couple of hours. If a National Guard force is in "Alert" status, then sure--they can be deployed/redeployed or re-tasked in minutes (if they are properly equipped (which includes communications), and have been briefed on their duties).
@@kenc2257 No matter what is said, the cold hard truth is that the planning was done early and the force displayed massive for BLM, but was sorely lacking last Wednesday. It's not as if there weren't indications - as per the goings on in Michigan, and the postings on social media - that all hell could break loose.
IT IS NOT AT ALL BELIEVABLE.
Always remember that Trump replaced a lot of people at the pentagon with his people , thats why the delays , he had prepared this in advance
@The Truth Is Out 777 He's cunning. You can be both stupid and cunning at the same time.
Trump is no genius but there are others around him who are better strategic thinkers (and equally evil).
And the FBI and the DOJ. We have to root them out.
Yeah, like for example he can't read or doesn't know a lot of common sense things but he's clever and is always strategizing.
david thomas I agree...the delay in response IMO was to give the domestic terrorist time to hunt and most likely kill Pence, Polosi and others in the senate and house chambers. Again IMO this was what trump was looking for too happen.
General Chaos talking to Jake here is happily convinced everyone listening to him is swallowing his bald faced lies and pies whole with clotted cream. We're all stupid, did we know that? Now we do. Those soldiers had to put their uniforms on, then sit down with the weekday coach from the high school for a briefing and a pep talk. Which took 'em ten hours. We should be grateful for whut we got.
All this national guard chief is saying is, I am not going to answer your question
General is circling the wagons. You’ll never get a straight answer.
.czcams.com/video/ATm0ZfwInn0/video.html

He needs to go
They are terrible.
First the general says it takes the National Guard 8-12 hrs to respond to a call. Later on he said they got there at 11 pm and that was great cos it’s usually a 24 hr response time. Wtf good are they? Didn’t take em long to show up at BLM protests, and not just ones that were announced ahead of time. Peaceful protesters get pepper sprayed so trump gets a photo op with a bible. His MAGATs get to invade the Capital with guns & zip ties yelling to hang Pence, and he still won’t use the 25th. McTurtle & most of the repubs still supporting him should lose their seats for complying with the president
Operator: "911 what's your emergency?"
Caller: "We have an insurrection taking place at the Capitol and we need help!"
Operator: "The National Guard tells me they are making preparations and should be there in 8-10 hours."
Now THAT'S FUNNY
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sounds about legit to me!!
Sounds like Benghazi all over again....
BLM protests:
Operator: "911 what's your emergency?"
Caller: "We have riots taking place in the city and we need help!"
Operator: "Okay sir, SWAT, SEAL TEAM 6, Delta Force, FBI, DEA, and ICE are on their way, hold tight"
I'd say some general's are going to be 'retired' pretty soon in response to this.
How long did it take to prepare for BLM? Why were they not prepared for the 6th? They heard ahead of time about BLM protests but not about the Trump protests? That makes no sense.
"Not that I'm aware of", "I don't have an answer for that" -why bother showing up for the interview?
because no answering can be an answer; they obviously fucked up, now it's cover up time
Covering their collective butts.
Pure BS. He's not just making feeble excuses. He's lying.
He looks down and to the right before telling a lie every single time. Would make for a terrible poker player
Probably, but he's the one that had to appear on camera, not the decision-maker....kind of felt bad for the guy
You can tell it's BS the way he's dancing around.
He is obviously a member of the Republican Fascist Party and supported the TERRORISTS. if you hindered help, then are supporting the Fascists.
Yep
Basically different standards of reaction force were implemented for BLM protest and Trump supporters.
They had the national guard on traffic duty. What a joke!
No answers. Maybe Trump will award him the presidential medal of freedom.
