On brief reading it appears the 10,000 National Guard was related to the rally not the Capitol - although I’m sure that will be argued.

Page 77-78
23 Q Yeah. And, you know, on that point, we also understand that the
24 President, in that January 4th dining room meeting, said -- or asked whether 10,000
25 National Guard troops could be deployed on January 6th. Were you aware of that?
And so we make sure we were on the same page. And I said I'm not speaking
A I was not aware of that.
Q Well, then, going back to the traveling to the Capitol, between the 4th and the 6th, so the time that you said you discussed it with Max Miller the morning of the 4th, did it come up again as a topic of discussion for you prior to the 6th? So later on the 4th or at any point on the 5th?
A No, it never came -- I never heard about it again.
Q When it comes to the National Guard statement about having 10,000 troops or any other number of troops, do you recall any discussion prior to the 6th about whether and how many National Guard troops to deploy on January 6th?
A I do recall a conversation, I believe, it was with Mr. Meadows and the mayor, Mayor Bowser. I remember he had -- he was on the phone with her, and we -- I had walked in for something, and I was there, and he was on the phone with her and wanted to make sure she had everything that she needed. Because I think it was the concern of anti and pro groups clashing is what I recall. And not anywhere near the Capitol, this was just out on the mall area or at the event; and wanted to know if she need any more guardsmen. And I remember the number 10,000 coming up of, you know, the President wants to make sure that you have enough. You know, he is willing to ask for 10,000. I remember that number. Now that you said it, it reminded me of it. And that she was all set. She had, I think it was like 350 or so for intersection control and those types of thing not in the law enforcement capacity at the time. And then that's the only thing I recall with that number 10,000 National Guard guardsmen.
Q And I imagine my -- others will have questions maybe to follow up on that.

[Dave from down under]

So not 10,000 guardsmen to protect the Capitol from Donnie’s cultist and insurrectionists..

“ Because I think it was the concern of anti and pro groups clashing is what I recall. And not anywhere near the Capitol, this was just out on the mall area or at the event; and wanted to know if she need any more guardsmen”

[p0rtia]

This is not new. And last I heard, Oranato was not in the chain of command.

Plus, according to multiple witnesses, he lied like a sieve to protect fuckhead. If pretending you don't remember is lying like a sieve.

And overhearing one side of a conversation that he happened to walk in on.
"Now that you said it"
Ironclad proof, right there!

Leading questions anyone?

Well, she'll have to retract that once she learns to read.

Naw. Love [of TFG] means never having to say you're sorry. Or something like that.

Lies? On FoxNews? That's unpossible.

"That is an out and out lie" -- Rand Paul and Brian Kilmeade get into a heated exchange about TikTok, with Paul going as far as to accuse Kilmeade of "defaming" TikTok. Kilmeade is visibly taken aback by the allegation.

Ingraham: Now a note about a graphic we showed at the top of the show. It was supposed to be Fani Willis and Nathan Wade but accidentally we broadcast Terrence Bradley. That was obviously not intentional. We made a mistake and we are sorry for that.

[Suranis]

I blame Obama Bin Ladin.

Looks like Howie Kurtz of Media Buzz got an interview with tfg. I'm assuming (not sure) it was air on his show tomorrow morning, but who knows At least maybe (maybe) he'll push back a bit on his BS more than other Fox hosts, but we'll have to wait.

If someone on Twitter can find Bartiromo's feed to post link here, but I did see some promo that Comer is going to give her an advance look (more like lies) on this week's hearing).

CHILLS: Slain NYPD Officer Jonathan Diller's Family guests share how room reacted when Trump arrived to pay his respects

"They gave him a rousing ovation. They clapped their hands and showed their gratitude for President Trump's kindness and for his compassion. It is a moment I will NEVER forget. It was very comforting for the family."

WTAF????

[RTH10260]

I thought the senior citizen from FL has only disdain for New York

How many funeral has he attended while residing in his golden tower?

[Dave from down under]

WTAF????

It is a cult

[Kendra]

Apparently Officer Sicknick's family did not see it quite the same, and per Deadline WH, they scorched it to the media. I believe now former Officer Gonell had similar statements.

Pete Hegseth was on F&F today talking about a book he's got coming out later this year, War on Warriors I think it's called. At the photo of him on the back cover. Anyway, he says he writes about his time in the military when the unit he was in labelled him as an extremist and wouldn't allow him on a mission and that's when he quit. Paraphrasing here, I was only half awake. Did a brief dive on Google, but no results on those facts according to Hegseth. Anyone doing X, maybe see if Aaron Rupar or others clipped that segment, please post here.

[pipistrelle]

• The latter, a conservative advocacy group funded by the Koch brothers, advocates greater privatization of the Department of Veterans Affairs.

• He reportedly persuaded Trump to pardon three American soldiers accused or convicted of war crimes related to the shooting of non-combatants in Iraq.

• Hegseth, who was a platoon leader at Guantanamo Bay during his military service, defended the treatment of inmates detained there.

Seems like a nice extremist.

[raison de arizona]

Hmm. Wonder why that is?

[Dr. Ken]

[Slim Cognito]

That was embarrassing, just not for Biden.
