Rep. Barry Loudermilk: Pentagon prioritized optics over their commander in chief’s orders on J6
House Administration Oversight Subcommittee Chairman Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) calls to hold Pentagon officials accountable for not complying with former President Donald Trump’s order to deploy National Guard or active-duty troops days before the January 6, 2021 riots. “Whatever the reasoning is, they did not follow an order from their commander in chief because they were more...Concerned about politics, their image, or optics. And you know, there was at least one life that was lost during the time period that they were not there, which they would have been had they been deployed when the order was given,” he says.
