over the weekend they are showing some information about mark meadows and the use of the national guard after january 6. was there any reaction to that? sec. psaki: as the president said, january 6 is one of the darkest moments in our country's history. there is no question that this investigation is vitally important to get to the bottom of what happened that day and to prevent it from ever happening again. as you know, as we make decisions regarding request for executive privilege, our team has made them through the prism of the unique moment -- the dark day in history that january 6 was. we are very supportive of the work of the committee and the work of congress to get to the bottom of what happened here. i would veto right that the president has the utmost respect for the men and women that serve in our military and confidence in the armed forces leadership. this investigation is critical to providing a full understanding of what happened to prevent it from happening again. >> does the president think it is better to take a pause 1.5 which before christmas and wait until next year

job as a journalist, number one, is it a reasonable inference that they were supportive of using the national guard? and number two, if you and other members of the committee won't answer that, is it fair to put something like that out without fuller context? is that fair to people under investigation? >> first of all, i can't tell you what inferences to draw yet. but in terms of, is it fair to mr. meadows, to reply to his attorney and rebut the claim of except tiff privilege it's clearly waived by the very nature of these documents. so, yes, i think it's fair, but i think it's unfair to the american people, is it mark meadows said he would cooperate, starting going forward with the cooperation. i don't know what changed. maybe the former president got upset about his book, whether or not he was cooperating, now he's using this frivolous excuse i can write about these things in my book, but somehow prohibited from testifying in congress. >> i think you're returning to one of your strongest point. legally it does seem like he's contradicting the very privilege he claims. i am going to push you one m

, the capitol police chief asked for it and we now have reports of whistle-blowers telling us is national guardold to stand down when they wanted to go in and stop the trouble. i don't hear them talking about that part. >> they want to talk about the part that fits their narrative and what we do know that in one of the things that is coming out more and more clearly each and every day as everyone condemned what happened in terms of the breach of security on january 6th but what we also know is that president trump wanted to make sure that the people that came that there was a safe environment for that kind of assembly and i've said that publicly before, the 10,000 national guard troops that he wanted to make sure that everything was safe and secure and the way that some of the democrats are spinning this trying to spend some nefarious purpose i think at the end of the day, they are going to find that not only did the president act, but he acted quickly and in doing all of that, it's important with this contempt vote that is coming out tomorrow, a very high probability that they will refer me fo

us. >> they said the national guard will protect protrump people. house knew there could be violence? >> if this is accurate and i hope it's not, that it really speaks to something that we've never seen before in the history of our country. and that is the politicalization of the military even more so that the fact of the matter is that one side of the federal government was anticipating violence whereas the other side of the federal government wasn't planning for it and so that's particularly worrisome. there is a lot of things we're seeing with the january 6th commission. it seems every stone they turnover something crawls out from underneath it so we're learning more and more about it. it certainly wasn't coordinated with the district of colombia and we're just learning about this ourselves this week. >> as head of intelligence at d.c.'s homeland security office, you were seeing giant red flags ahead of the insurrection. what were you seeing and who were you sounding the alarm to, sir? >> we were seeing really worrisome trends. we saw a spike in

big disruption on january 6th that might require a large law enforcement response, a national guard response, tells usg something. potentially violent. and that they were planning out, they were gaming out how, you know, how to make this benefit trump. but it does shed light on the fact that the delay in the deployment of the national guard was not just some kind of miscommunication, which sounds like until now this has been the narrative, but something that was more deliberate. >> and what about this powerpoint? i think this is something that everyone has been talking about. it is something that mark meadows turned over to the committee. his attorney said he turned it over because it wasn't privileged. it was something he received but didn't do anything with. it is completely concerning. it was sent to the chief of staff at the white house at the time. and of course in part of it it talks about declaring a national emergency when it comes to how they wanted to contest these results. so mark meadows said he didn't actually do anything with this. what did you do with the fact that he had it in his hand

if you could be with us from the national guard, for example -- whatever you would do, you would say, we are going after x. if you are dea or fbi or anything, i couldn't care less. let's get the job done. that same type of attitude has to come to this. and i really think that with cisa, you have to have the private sector build up a certain degree of trust. there's got to be collaboration and interplay. okay, we got hacked. so let's get this information to cisa in a way that is not too burdensome. what's of things do you see chemically? get out quickly. so that the private sector can get that out in a cogent matter manner. you are breaking down barriers of collaboration. one of the concerns i have is that if you overregulate that, you are going to end up having a lack of trust. and too much bureaucracy. too much bureaucracy, too much stovepiped. and at the same token, you have to work at the same sector, in a collaborative manner, and i was a fed all the way through. but you get them to trust us and to share with us. i can tell you, just as an example, to drill down for a second. the
