Liz Cheney told Fox News host Bret Baier during an interview Sunday that the January 6 committee has a team focused on security at the Capitol but that law enforcement should not be blamed for \u201cDonald Trump\u2019s armed mob.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Capitol police and law enforcement will not be blamed for the events of January 6, 2021, Cheney told Baier on Fox News Sunday. \u201cWhat we aren\u2019t going to do, Bret, is blame the Capitol police, blame those in law enforcement for Donald Trump\u2019s armed mob that he sent to the Capitol,\u201d Cheney stated, \u201cI believe there were intelligence failures, clearly there were intelligence failures. Clearly, the security should have operated better than it did.\u201d [\u2026]\n<p>Baier asked if it was true that Donald Trump had requested 20,000 National Guard members be present to protect the Capitol prior to the event.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, his own acting secretary of defense says that\u2019s not true,\u201d Cheney responded. \u201cChris Miller has testified publicly that Donald Trump never issued any order to deploy the guard to protect the capital. And so I would point people to his own secretary of defense\u2019s public testimony.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>THAT\u2019S NOT TRUE\u2026 <\/b><b>FLASHBACK\u2026 MAY 2021\u2026 <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/us\/congresswoman-says-trump-administration-botched-capitol-riot-preparations-2021-05-12\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">HERE\u2019S CHRIS MILLER,<\/a> DESCRIBING HOW TRUMP ASKED IF MURIEL BOWSER HAD REQUESTED NATIONAL GUARD, AND THEN ORDERED HIM TO \u2018FILL IT AND DO WHATEVER WAS NECESSARY\u2019\u2026<b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/us\/congresswoman-says-trump-administration-botched-capitol-riot-preparations-2021-05-12\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">(VIDEO, STARTS AT 1:16)<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>MORE\u2026 <\/b><b>JOHN SOLOMON: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/justthenews.com\/government\/congress\/trump-gave-explicit-order-about-jan-6-rally-make-sure-it-was-safe-event-dod\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Trump gave order<\/a> to \u2018make sure\u2019 Jan. 6 rally was \u2018safe event,\u2019 Pentagon memo shows<\/p>\n<p>But the most compelling piece of evidence that Trump wanted to thwart \u2014 rather than incite \u2014violence is contained in a lengthy memo written by the Pentagon inspector general that chronicled the assistance the Defense Department offered Congress both ahead of and during the riot.<\/p>\n<p>In it, the IG recounts a fateful meeting on Jan. 3, 2021 in the White House when then-acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller and Gen.
