Ex-Capitol police chief slams Pelosi, says she rejected National Guard help Jan. 6
Former United States Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund is accusing former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) of rewriting history after she criticized President Donald Trump’s decision to activate the D.C. National Guard this week.
Pelosi wrote on X Monday that Trump “delayed deploying the National Guard on January 6th when our Capitol was under violent attack and lives were at stake,” claiming his new Guard order was an attempt to distract from his “incompetent mishandling” of tariffs, healthcare, education, and immigration.
Sund, who led Capitol Police during the Jan. 6, 2021, riot, responded with a lengthy rebuttal, accusing Pelosi of blocking his multiple requests for Guard assistance before and during the attack.
“Ma’am, it is long past time to be honest with the American people,” Sund wrote.
