This is an excerpt of the Jan 6 committee. Panel member Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) read through texts to Meadows from Fox News hosts as well as Trump’s own son, Donald Trump Jr., imploring Meadows to get his father to “condemn this [shit] Asap. The Capitol Police tweet is not enough.” “I’m pushing it hard,” Meadows responded. “I agree.” “We need an Oval address,” Trump Jr. wrote back. “He has to lead now. It has gone too far and gotten out of hand.” Several Fox News hosts also urged Meadows to get Trump on TV or make some kind of statement while he remained silent in the White House as members of the mob assaulted police officers, chanting things like “Hang Mike Pence” an menaced members of Congress. “Hey Mark, the president needs to tell people in the Capitol to go home … this is hurting all of us … he is destroying his legacy,” wrote Laura Ingraham. Brian Kilmeade also chimed in. “Please get him on tv,” he texted Meadows. “Destroying everything you have accomplished.” Brian Kilmeade wrote And Trump friend and popular Fox News host Sean Hannity simply asked Meadows: “Can he make a statement? … Ask people to leave the Capitol.”
Former FBI official unleashes on Trump's coup: 'I've been careful — but this was a subversion of our military' excerpt: ""I think Americans, who are generally attuned to things going the right way, the system, the process, the rule of law, maybe glossed over the May testimony and now need to get hit over the head with it, but that blow to the head has just come," he continued. "Let me assure you. You can't do both. You can't say, well, the Guard's going to be on call to protect the protesters when you're watching the fact that there's violence coming. You know it's coming. You know there's no counterprotest planned. You can't do both. You need to protect the target from the threat. The target was the United States Capitol and the peaceful transition of power in a presidential election. That's the way this works. We've been hit over the head with the truth about what the National Guard was going to be deployed for, and it is a subversion of our military." He went on to explain that Meadows's communications also revealed that he was talking to the Justice Department desperately trying to find fraud, making it clear that he couldn't find any"
In Trump's twisted mind, the target for the military to protect was his election win that he thinks was stolen from him. The threats were the members of Congress and the Capitol Police who were defending, in Trump's perception, Biden's illegitimate election win. Trump said recently that the real insurrection was the 2020 election and that the insurrection at the Capitol was simply a protest against the insurrection.
Yes the son of the same Herschel Walker who's running for Senator in Georgia with personal backing from former President Donald Trump. The same Herschel Walker who has had a long struggle with mental illness, repeatedly threatened to murder his ex-wife, exaggerated claims of financial success, and has scared friends and business associates with his unpredictable behavior.
If Christian Walker was over 30 instead of 22, Trump might be endorsing him for a U.S. Senate seat. Christian Walker (activist) - Wikipedia
