national guard. the secretary surveyed the capitol to find the best link-up point to be. 4:42, we had an approved plan. at 4:35 p.m., the secretary of the army ordered the d.c. national guard to move to the capitol and begin establishing perimeter security. once the d.c. national guard was committed, the army staff continued to prepare and conduct planning to receive additional forces, identifying what barrier material would be needed, and where it could be found, how it would be contracted for and employed and placed to enhance the protection of the capitol. on january 6th, our capitol was attacked, breached, and penetrated. your lives, those of your staff, the u.s. capitol police, and many others were threatened by a dangerous mob. our collective mission now is to learn from this event and ensure an event like this never happens again. i hope that my testimony today will prove useful to that end. thank you. i am prepared to answer your questions. >> thank you for your testimony. general flynn, you

national guard. that request focused on support to direct traffic control points and crowd management near metro stations. the army received no other request for assistance. the d.c. national guard then determined this request would require roughly 350 unarmed soldiers to cover two separate shifts. this included a 40-person quick reaction force at joint base andrews, and that quick reaction force was intended to augment crowd control and establish traffic control points if required. the d.c. national guard equipped those soldiers and airmen with body armors and helmets stored in nearby government vehicles. riot control gear such as shields, light protection and full face shields remain stored at the d.c. guard armory. because the national guard forces, including the quick reaction force, were never requested to serve as a riot control force, my director of current operations, a brigadier general, validated these requirements and, with secretary mccarthy's endorsement, acting sechlt c def miller appro

we don't want any national guard here. i got national guardsmen just for traffic control wearing safety vests unarmed, working traffic control and crowd control here and there in the city. certainly not predeployed to react and respond quickly to the kind of thing that everybody knew was a potential to happen on january the 6th. so what happened? were there communications between my colleagues and the democratic party and their friend, the mayor of d.c., to have that change of heart the day before january the 6th? we're gonna find out. i promise you. director wray, will you explain to my colleagues what in law enforcement, what a show of force deterrence is, how meaningful it is and how effective it is as we deal with potential for violence, mob behavior, rioting, violent protests, when things can get out of hand and we know it because of our intel. would you explain that in generalties, sir? i realize you cannot discuss the case. share with america how effective the show of force is. >> with the caveat up front that the fb

national guard? >> madam, i believe the complication comes from the lack of unity of command and unity of effort. what we saw after january 6 when we prepared for the inauguration was an integrated security plan across the district with one lead federal agency so that one request could be worked out immediately with that agency and they had the authorities to move and maneuver forces to wherever they would be needed. >> i see my time has expired. chairwoman maloney: the gentlelady yields back. the gentleman from georgia is now recognized. mr. hise. >> thank you, madam chair, i with many others have consistently and forcefully condemned political violence by anyone of any kind whether it happens here at the united states capitol or anywhere else across our country. law and order is critical for us to preserve a peaceful republic and anyone breaking our laws should be held accountable. this is what we refer to as equal justice for all. beginning under president trump, the f.b.i. and the department of j

national guard. rep. franklin: the track liquor control and crowd control mission early in the day, not only did the mission change, the command structure, the tactics, there was a complete change in mission set from what they thought they might have been getting to what ultimately happened, correct? dir. wray: they're working for the metropolitan police department and they had to be re-equipped and reconfigured for this new mission of civil unrest. dir. wray: -- rep. franklin: i know there was some talk about the optics of having guard troops at the capitol, you are not sure if you said that, but i heard you also say that you discuss the difference in the mission, and really what are guard troops are trained to do versus a special type of training required, could you expand a little bit on that? dir. wray: i do not recall saying it was that date because the optics were clearly a mob storming the capitol, that was not an important consideration at our time. what was important was getting the capitol secur

had asked of the national guard. when you got the call to be redeployed, i would imagine that there were a lot of things that had to take place. i would imagine that the national guard troops would have to leave their positions, which i would assume were scattered all over washington, d.c. and go back to a central place to get armed and come up with a plan. would that be correct? >> congressman they called in from their civilian workplace as well. >> so there were civilian workers. >> correct, congressman. >> wow. so on january 3rd and 4th, the u.s. capitol police confirmed with the pentagon that there was no requirement for department of defense support, is that true? >> yes, it is, congressman. >> whoo! this has been a productive hearing. man. i think, madam chair, if we have a part three, we need to have the mayor back as well as the capitol police chief who didn't have time to come attend our hearing today because she had something else more important to do. wow. one last question for director wray, sir, the mino

but it was close to five hours before and the national guard troops were actually sent to the capitol, at which point the capital was well and truly overrun. today, one of the pentagon officials could not explain that delay in dispatching the guard on january 6th. one of the officials who couldn't explain it but nevertheless testified about it was general named charles fulton. general charles flynn was the younger brother of trump national security adviser mike flynn who of course called on trump supporters to come to the capital on january 6th. who publicly called on trump to declare martial law and have the military takeover the country and re-run the election in swing states where trump lost. mike flynn's brother charlie on january 6th was the deputy chief of staff of the united states army which, he described as essentially being the ceo, the chief operating officer of the united states army. after the attack happened on january 6th, one hard question started to be asked about why the national guard wasn't there, why the national guard took so long to get there, why request after

let me ask you about the national guard pretty is threatening to cancel all training exercises.21 million for the deployments following the generous six rights, what can you tell us about this. mike: obviously think it is been very troubling, and certainly to congress as we watch the national guard here being used as props and for political purposes. we had the situation on january 6 when the capitol was not adequately protected and then of course when the two fences in the coring off in the national guard here and numbers and were obviously unnecessary were being used for political purposes predict this is an issue though that obviously they had to spend funds to do that they do need to be reimbursed. someone has to pay this bill. it is unfortunate that nancy pelosi and others use to them in this manner but obviously, the bill does come due. maria: people are so sick and tired of the political games being played here the dirty tricks as well. the me ask you about iran. were talking about serious issues here. joe biden was to get u.s. back into the iran deal. we know that the u.

but it was close to five hours before any national guard troops were sent to the capitol. at which point the capitol was well and truly overrun. today one of the pentagon officials who couldn't explain that delay in dispatching the guard on january 6, one of the officials who couldn't explain it, never the less testified about it. was a general charles flynn. he is the younger brother of trump national security adviser michael flynn. who of course called on trump supporters to come to the capitol january 6. who publicly called on trump to declare martial law and have the military take over the country and rerun the election and swing states. where trump lost. michael flynn's brother on january 6th was the deputy chief of staff of the united states army. which he described essentially being the chief operating office of the army. after the attack happened on january 6 on hard questions started to be asked about why the national guard wasn't there. why they took so long. request after request produced no help. for hours and hours. when hard questions first started to be asked

cal fire teaming one the national guard to get the state through this extreme heat and keep you safe from wildfires. in an historic move, cal fire is training the national guard members to become hand crews and fight fires on the front lines. nbc bay area is live, sharon, i saw you were there earlier today. talk to us about the rigorous testing they're going through. >> reporter: it is very rigorous. we just saw them come down the hill. you can see they're resting under the tent in the shade. they're getting a real lesson in heat exhaustion. unfortunately, about a half-hour ago, we saw a few members of the national guard experiencing heat exhaustion. i'm told one is in stable condition. he was taken to the hospital as a precaution and two others are okay. cal fire had members of the national guard test out their equipment in this drill called the tool out, and they had to answer questions on the spot to show they are ready to fight wildfires. due to the early release program during the pandemic, cal fire needs 140 to 150 more hand crews throughout the state. >> since the release of t

all this time, i was still in the national guard.gain for congress and became a congresswoman in 2012. david: then an opportunity came along to run for the united states senate. did you hesitate and say, jeez, i have a safe seat, or did you say no, i really want to do this? sen. duckworth: i was actually on maternity leave with my oldest daughter. i had her in november of 2014. illinois' primary is very early. it is in march and so i had to make a decision by march of 2015 if i wanted to run for senate. so i was still on maternity leave. i didn't want -- i thought i am not going to run for senate. i just had this baby, i am on maternity leave, but then i looked and realized that should i ever want to run for the united states senate, this was the opportunity. so i took the chance. ♪ ♪ david: let's talk about the united states senate. is it pleasurable to be united states senator? it seems like they are always fighting, they don't have compromises, and nothing is done by bipartisan anymore. is it enjoyable or not quite as enjoyable as

they said do not send the national guard in.thinking that we have this country where people are either in red states or blue states and have completely different philosophies about the way they want to run their country, completely different. >> no, absolutely. you know what? people are voting with their feet, right? they're leaving new york, they're leaving the northeast, leaving illinois. california is set to lose a congressional seat for the first time in its history. meanwhile these more conservative states, the economies are booming, our unemployment rated is around 4% now. you know, the other piece on the border, martha, that i also want to emphasize, the amount of methamphetamine that is flowing into florida from the texas border, the amount of fentanyl and the opioid crisis that is flowing into our communities, this has to stop. the biden administration's solution, throwing money into central america, which is going to embolden the cartels down there is making the problem worse, not better. >> martha: yeah, it's interest

it was frustrating, but it was also an immense burden on tens of thousands of national guards who had to leave their jobs, their families to come out here for a month. some of that was probably necessary. there is a major security -- was a major security breach of the capital -- capitol. that building had to be secured. but a lot of these things we have a tendency to overreact. i hope that as we look back at 1/6, we learn the right lessons and do not overreact. we do, we often make it worse. going back to afghanistan and the larger global war on terror, that is the kind of thing you've seen over the last 20 of years. in many cases, we have gone beyond what we needed to do and fundamentally made the problems we're trying to solve worse. that is what we need to be careful of as we get past 1/6 and doing things like deploying two divisions of national guards, i think we should take a hard look at that question and whether or not it was necessary. host: dave on twitter says could you ask the guest about -- trump seriously considered using our military during the george floyd protests. wha

national guard come and help them and assist them on that day. he believed he had gotten a no answer. they say that was never a formal request. so there was a lot of confusion. about how to actually request the d.c. national guard and then when the request did make its way to the department of defense, they still spent hours trying to decide what the mission was, getting everybody outfitted. a lot of hurdles there that took away crucial time. finally, yes, this is the crunch time failure, once the department of defense was able to say definitively yes we are ready to deploy but we need a more clarified mission, it took hours to finally get the authority and the clarity for the mission, ana, which meant that even though around 3:00 that day, department of defense officials were comfortable sending people at least to a staging area to eventually deploy to the capitol, it still took another about two hours to get everybody geared up, mission ready, and actually over to the capitol. those were crucial minutes that were lost. and then finally, there w

national guard has now left.encing and the future of security at the capitol is unknown because lawmakers themselves have not decided how much they want to spend. lawmakers' own indecision is not just symbolic but is a factor in this oversight of the capitol and the security problems there. one other issue is that it is not well-known. when i talk to capitol police officer's, i know some who have left since january 6 and they say they are not just shortstaffed, but very shortstaffed. even if the capitol could open for health reasons, they say they don't have the personnel to do it. judy: lisa desjardins, thank you for the reporting. we appreciate it. and we hear now from a democratic senator, amy klobuchar of minnesota. she chairs the rules committee which released today's report in a joint effort with the homeland security committee and she joins us now from capitol hill. senator klobuchar, welcome back. what would you say were the main failures outlined in this report. sen. klobuchar: the first was echoed in th

now, the national guard, we know the problems in the communications there, the reests did not go through and when the requests did go through the pentagon, it was delayed, all of that led to a finding in this report that the national guard did not arrive at the u.s. capitol until after the capitol itself was secured. there is one of the 20 recommendations in this report that i think is most significant is that the capitol police be able to call on the national guard on their own. right now the capitol police are overseen as what some believe is an antiqted board of three people appointed by congress, they are slow to act and it's notable that something that is not this report, this report does not recommend any changes to that board's structure, and i know capitol police believe they can't do their job better until that structure changes, something else not in this report is president trump and any role he played on that day. that's because the whole purview of this report was limited to security failures on that day. that was the goal. >> woodruff: he is not mentioned. lisa, have any of

and the national guard in south dakota is not governor noem's military.d it can get. this is how bad it can get. we don't want the politicization of the military to go so far where within the united states you have blue armies and red armies. so this is a very dangerous element for our national security, for this political dialogue, and it shows how far this friendly fire politically is bleeding over into our military. imagine being one of those 50 national guardsmen who hears you have to go down there because a private donor threw some money in? this is not what you signed up for. it's a violation of the compact that you have with our men and women and another sign of how this is continuing to bleed further and further into our society. >> matt dowd, the idea that -- let me read some more from this report. but the idea that a donor could write a check that goes to the national guard doesn't seem possible. let me read some more from what "the post" is writing about this. in theory, a spokesperson for noem said the undisclosed amounting was paid to the sta

national guard arrived. mr. bolten, i'd like to focus how we can assure that the capitol police officers have the leadership, training and tools that they deserve. your recent review looked at the deficiencies in the training, professional standards, internal control in the collection and dissemination of information as well as the failure with intelligence failures january 6th. these were identified in two ig reports. and similarly, the homeland security report found that quote, important intelligence information received by internal u.s. capitol police components was not shared with the distinct intelligence related components. i'd like to ask you, mr. bolten, is it accurate you found the shortcomings ahead of january 6th, at least one of which has been raised in previous ig reports? >> that would be correct. leading up to january 6th, who was the in role of the intelligence which oversees. >> that would be captain pitman. >> found on january 6th capitol police did not utilize intelligence, didn't adequately p

there's no border patrol, no national guard, it's just us over here.re are still more people. this is far from the last trip. >> leo processes the senior writer at townhall.com and he's out the border and has been for a while. thanks so much for coming on. what do you see down there right now? >> basically tucker, what i told you back in march, i'm saying it now and i'll probably say it again in a few months. the fact is, the crisis is continuing down here, and it's very unfortunate that the vice president not only went to el paso which granted has seen its fair share of the crisis but the rio grande is the epicenter for everything because it's easier to cross into the united states. last night we actually came upon that scene while they were midway through the people that were peering across. border patrol was further up and lend an already inundated with all the people that had crossed before we got to roma. if they continue to cross overo for about another hour and a half and when they were done with their shift we ask them come will they be the sam

army was asked about how come this didn't come together right away, and he said, you know, the national guard is incredible, but you just can't pick this moment to have it be like a pickup game. like they're all going to be able to combine with no contingency plan in place. he said this was a super bowl of attacks and you need a plan. >> the focus of the report was on the response and not the whys, the things leading up to this attack. but there are a couple of points in there where they reference the crowd that had gathered for president trump's speech, his speech on the mall is given in its entirety as an appendix. would the attack on the capitol have happened without that event on the ellipse? >> no. this wouldn't have happened if he hadn't done all those things. his claims of this -- of this election is what led to this. >> our job was not to go back and talk about what happened in terms of the motivation, it was about, okay, once it happened, you know, what did we do here in the capitol and how could this have happened and how can we ensure it never happens again? >> doesn't somebody nee

with respect to your question on the national guard, just one quick piece on that, as you know the national guard they are all over the world, we have them committed overseas as well as domestically, they are a tremendous investment, big bang for the buck with the national guard both air and army. over 50% of the united states army is the national guard. if we don't get the $500 million to supplement for the deployment of the guard if the capitol, that will have a significant negative impact on their ability to maintain their readiness as well. >> thank you. secretary austin, we have one thing we have in vermont, we have a semi-conductor fab that is part of the trusted foundry as is many other states, we just passed a bill that includes $54 billion to the commerce department for such commercial fabs to revitalize and bring us up to date in micro electronics but i did how is the department investing in such micro electronic technology because we're going on more and more the know that other countries are accelerating their use of other things. and i apologize for senator shelby for going ove

national guard arrived. so mr. bolton, i'd like to focus on how we can assure the capitol police officers have the leadership, the training, and the tools that they deserve. your recent interview identified intelligence related deficiencies in the organizational structure, the internal controls and the collection and dissemination of information, as well as a failure with evaluations in connection with january 6th. these shortcomings were known before january 6th. in fact, identified into two previous ig reports and previously the homeland security report found that important intelligence agency received by internal police components was not appropriately shared among uscps distinct components. is it accurate that you found numerous shortcomings ahead of january 6th, one of which has been raised in previous reports? >> that would be correct, sir, yes. >> leading up to january 6th who was in the role of the chief and protective operations who oversees the component? >> that would be chief pitman. >> thank you. more

how long did it take for the national guard to get there?hen did trump actually request them and, you know, what is not in this report is arguably more important because of the fact that, yes, this has to do with the security of the campus of the capitol and this lack of communication among the capitol police, but there are bigger roles of democracy and democracy issues and what led to the right wing extremists being incited, why there's a growth of right wing extremism as i cross the country and the growth of white supremacist threats across the country and those are all questions that could be answer federal there were a bipartisan commission that looked into the root causes and what is leading to this and what led to january 6th. >> i want to ask you guys a question that i was asked today by someone at "the philadelphia enquirer" and i'll give my answer after you answer. we were talking about history and talking about what is taught. you just got back from tulsa, that rates of massacre 100 years ago. i did not learn about it nil was well

trump claimed he immediately called in the national guard but the acting secretary of defense said heoke to the president and kevin mccarthy told her that trump sided with the mob. we also don't know what role, if any, members of congress or capitol hill staff played. some democrats allege that republicans gave capitol hill tours to some of the insurrectionists but we've seen no evidence of that to date. likewise, one of the organizers of the stop the steal rally said that three members of congress, gosar, biggs and brooks helped him plan the rally. they deny this. who is telling the truth? and finally, who was behind the dark money that helped pay for the rally that turned into a riot? these are just a few of the open questions that demand answers. and we need to understand exactly how this attack happened to make sure it never happens again. delay will only lead to more denial. we want to defend democracy abroad, we must be willing to defend it here at home first. and that's your "reality check." >> john avlon, thank you so much. >>> this historic summit that's now under way between

we've worked very well with the national guard. but there are challenges that they face, you know, in their ability to deploy. on the fbi's side, just to be clear, we don't, and really never have in our 113-year history really done crowd control or static defense or things like that. so we don't really have the skills, the training, the equipment to do that part of it. what we do have are overseen by our critical incident response group, we have things like our hostage rescue team which can deploy in certain situations. we have crisis negotiators. we have aerial surveillance in certain instances. things like that that we can lend to the effort. but i think most of which you're talking about would ultimately be more on the shoulders of other agencies. so i want to be careful not to speak for them. >> i think you have critical elements that you could engage. they would have to rehearse, practice, et cetera. so one of the lessons, ad hoc is not that good when you're facing a mob of folks. the other aspect, too, just for the s, just fo

i want to know why he didn't call in the national guard immediately.al guard, he can't put this on anyone else, why didn't he call them in asap. i also want to know why he went and hid and didn't contact myself or brian's family to offer his condolences, you know? it's pretty obvious at that time that no one knew what happened to brian. we didn't know if it was a homicide or not. he hid because he thought i may be responsible for this officer's death. president biden came out to the private memorial service that we had for brian and he did that out of the goodness of his heart. i have a lot of respect for him and the first lady. brian was not a supporter of his and he did that yeah. brine was a huge supporter of trump and he knew all of this. and he didn't even write a letter. he made absolutely no effort to contact me. it is devastating, it is hurtful, everything that i thought i knew is completely upside down. >> when you were looking at this report, reviewing the investigation about it, were you disappointed about what it shared about the actions an
