Pelosi's guilt for Jan 6th riot, page-25

• In a brief video, then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said, "I take responsibility for not having them just prepare for more," referring to U.S. Capitol security, not the National Guard.

• No member of Congress has the authority to activate the District of Columbia National Guard. Only the president, defense secretary and U.S. Army secretary do.

• Records show that Pelosi approved a Jan. 6, 2021, request to seek support from the National Guard and pushed to get National Guard troops to the U.S. Capitol when their deployment was delayed by hours that day
