Cruz Presses Pelosi’s Role in Capitol Security Failures

In a newly revealed video, Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) scrutinizes former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s dismissal of National Guard troops ahead of the January 6 Capitol riot during recent confirmation hearings for Kash Patel, President Trump’s former chief of staff at the Department of Defense. Patel asserted that multiple requests for National Guard assistance were declined, including a written refusal from DC’s Mayor Muriel Bowser in the days leading up to the insurrection.

The testimony underscores a significant concern regarding the security arrangements on January 6, where Patel revealed that the Department of Defense offered over 20,000 troops to ensure the Capitol’s safety, but these offers were not acted upon. As the situation escalated, former Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund also indicated his frustration over the rejection of assistance requests just days before the riot, citing Pelosi’s influence on security decisions in a chaotic landscape.
