New Video Reveals Pelosi Taking Responsibility for Unprotected US Capitol on Jan. 6

In a recently surfaced video, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi can be seen taking responsibility for the lack of protection at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, a day that witnessed unprecedented chaos and violence.

This revelation comes amid growing scrutiny over Pelosi’s decisions leading up to the events of that day, particularly her controversial move to call off the National Guard.

The footage, which was disclosed by The Gateway Pundit, shows Pelosi in a candid moment, acknowledging the security failures and accepting responsibility for the unprepared state of the Capitol. “We knew we had the threat of violence, but we didn’t act on it as effectively as we should have,” Pelosi admits in the video, indicating a significant oversight in the security measures that were supposed to protect the nation’s legislative hub.

This new evidence adds fuel to the ongoing debate about the decisions made by Pelosi and other key officials in the lead-up to the January 6 events. Critics argue that Pelosi’s actions, or lack thereof, directly contributed to the vulnerability of the Capitol. In the days before January 6, there were numerous reports of potential threats, yet the necessary precautions, including the deployment of the National Guard, were seemingly disregarded.

It’s worth noting that several prominent voices within conservative circles have long questioned Pelosi’s handling of the situation. Many have pointed out that her decision to call off the National Guard left the Capitol defenseless against an anticipated threat. The new video bolsters these claims, providing a clear admission from Pelosi herself about her role in the security breakdown.

In the days following January 6, Pelosi was quick to shift the blame to other figures and entities. She frequently cited intelligence failures and the actions of former President Donald Trump as primary reasons for the chaos.

However, this newly revealed footage paints a different picture, one where Pelosi is seen acknowledging her own responsibility in a moment of candor. “I take responsibility for not ensuring that the Capitol was as secure as it needed to be,” she says in the video, a statement that stands in stark contrast to her earlier deflections.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, former Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Washington DC Mayor Muriel Bowser were both warned about the security situation prior to January 6th and both of them turned down National Guard troops at the US Capitol that day.

Pelosi and Mayor Muriel Bowser turned down thousands of National Guard troops at the Capitol on January 6 for political reasons.

Chris Wray’s FBI also refused to notify the Trump administration and his cabinet secretaries that they believed there could be violence like the mass protests at the Capitol that took place that day.

Nancy Pelosi also refused the National Guard at the US Capitol due to “politics,” but that is just her excuse. What did she know in advance?

Capitol Police Chief Steve Sund previously testified that he asked House and Senate security officials for permission to request that the D.C. National Guard be placed on standby in case he needed quick backup. But they both turned him down.

And in April, DC National Guard whistleblowers testified that the Pentagon, under the direction of Mark Milley, refused to deploy the National Guard that day until after 5 PM.

Pelosi blocked the National Guard from protecting the Capitol that day – Mark Milley blocked the National Guard from deploying until after 5 PM.

This development raises significant questions about the internal communications and decisions made within the highest levels of government security apparatus. How was it possible that the threat intelligence was either ignored or not acted upon? Why were the recommendations to deploy the National Guard overruled or dismissed? These questions remain unanswered, and Pelosi’s admission only heightens the need for a thorough investigation.

Pelosi’s acknowledgment of her role in the Capitol’s unprotected state on January 6 is a significant development. It not only vindicates some of the criticisms from conservative quarters but also calls into question the broader narrative that has been accepted by much of the public. As this new evidence comes to light, the demand for accountability and transparency will only grow louder.
