In a stunning revelation from a House Subcommittee on Oversight hearing this April, National Guard whistleblowers stepped forward to dismantle the misleading narrative surrounding the January 6 protests and riots propagated by the media and Democrats.
During the hearing, four National Guard members testified that although they were prepared to deploy on January 6, they were restrained by Pentagon directives, casting a shadow over General Mark Milley’s decisions during the incident. Kash Patel, a former Trump administration official, hinted last month that more disclosures like these were on the horizon.

These whistleblowers—Command Sgt. Major Michael E. Brooks, Colonel Earl G. Matthews, Aaron Dean (retired), and Captain Timothy Nick—gave their testimonies to set the record straight regarding the events of January 6. Reports had surfaced, as previously covered by The Gateway Pundit, that both former Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Washington DC Mayor Muriel Bowser were pre-warned about potential security threats but declined National Guard support at the US Capitol on that fateful day for political motives.
It was disclosed that both Pelosi and Mayor Bowser had refused thousands of National Guard troops, putting political optics over security. FBI Director Chris Wray also faced criticism for not informing Trump’s cabinet about potential violence, despite forewarnings of mass protests.
Capitol Police Chief Steve Sund’s request for National Guard standby support was also denied by House and Senate security officials, which added to the chaos of the day. John Solomon from Just The News revealed in 2022 that the Capitol Police had been warned of possible violence two weeks before the protests. Despite these warnings, government officials like Pelosi and Mayor Bowser rejected National Guard assistance, seemingly setting the stage to pin an “insurrection” on President Trump.
More disturbing revelations emerged about the military leadership on January 6. According to Colonel Earl Matthews, who testified in April, U.S. military leaders effectively revoked President Trump’s Commander-in-Chief powers on that day, declining National Guard intervention due to concerns over appearances.
