Rachel Maddow describes how Maryland Congressman Steny Hoyer, locked down as pro-Trump rioters marauded through the U.S. Capitol, called Maryland Governor Larry Hogan for National Guard support, and how that support was held up from being authorized for an hour and a half as the Trump administration remained unresponsive. Aired on 01/07/2021.

National Guard Held In Limbo As Trump Mob Ransacked U.S. Capitol | Rachel Maddow | MSNBC
Secretary of Defense not taking calls when defense is needed.
SMH
@Jennifer Sweeney lmfao!!
@Jennifer Sweeney get real. Lmfao!!!
@Fireflash — engage in the debate. Leftist name calling doesn’t serve you or your party well. Instead of asking for cancel culture, try to refute the points at hand 👍
Defense⁉️ the police and security personnel couldn’t stop the protesters from walking past open gates and unlocked doors.
Fire them!!! This could had been a full take over they had bombs
‘Forces were denied authorization” IT WAS AN INSIDE JOB. investigate and prosecute!!
Agree
Of course it was an inside job. The leader of the inside job was Trump and his accomplices the Republicans and his family including the vampire Giuliani the monster
@SouthWest Prepper Group I think we need more than coffee at this point…
@Fausto Hernandez That video was clearly from before the rally and riot. The screens show the stage and crowd. Don’t get me wrong, he was and is a criminal and 100% responsible for how the day went, but he’s not watching the riots in the video.
@charles beaudry Jennifer Sweeney was there. Lock her up!! She trashed the place just like her trash posts
Obviously lack of federal response on federal grounds is a federal fault.
trump its over you have drug your name what ever thats worth an your family threw the mud ! now our country your draft dodgeing an treason your a born loser im scared if you did the right thing you would miss an shoot some else so please move to russia all they want is to peeeeee! on you !
trump likes crowds he will enjoy his excution !!!!⛳🍌🐒
the corrupt criminal biden who sold votes for 2k need to be arrested for treason just for that!
It was the corrupt Clintons who created the fake Russian crap while Biden’s did take 12 bribes from Moscow! Here is evidence.

Why police just do not search those ANTIFA people that were there? And arrest Police Officers that start to shot innocent people as soon as ANTIFA left???
@alex Goodmornin innocent people? You mean the people breaking and entering? I am pretty sure that those people were not innocent smashing through glass and jumping through window frames to get in. I mean when someone breaks into a house they are innocent as well right? (Last question was sarcastic)
He won’t resign. He can’t even bring himself to concede.
He conceded yesterday but didn’t have the balls to say Biden’s name. He won’t attend the Inauguration. Great!!
Thank God for that, for if he did resign….Pence could pardon him of many of his federal crimes….including yesterdays insurrection
They are all over social media sights with plans for the Inauguration day as well. I sure hope feds are all over these sights looking at what these crazies are planning and what they are saying. We can not afford to no longer take their words as just blowing off steam. These people are serious.
Its why he must be removed
@David Renwick that was no concession. That was a “my lawyer’s telling me to say this” speech.
They were all watching the sh*tshow they started, that’s why they wouldn’t send any help to the Capitol. It was entertainment for trump and his people.
This story shouldn’t end, UNTIL the ones in power who delayed all this are held ACCOUNTABLE…DONT LET THEM GET AWAY WITH THIS!!!!
@Sharon Rioux
And Portland , Kenosha , riots .
Same applys ?? lock them up BLM & ANTIFA thugs ??
@Licia Williams my kind are the folks doing the rounding.
At the very least take Trump’s passport.
@Name Your Edit? popular vote did not lean left, election was heavily tampered with
@L P you admire bush who killed thousands of americans in 911, then went on to fight invisible terrorists wish resulted in more deaths of americans, wow r u serious, what a joke
this explaination of the situation is concise, accurately backed up with receipts by the people involved, and horriblly laughable
Traitors need to be swiftly prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
yep starts with the last régime
they should have been dealt with a shower of led and metal flying at 60mph. Yet they walked away pretty much unharmed.
Toh great

The Republicans “southern strategy” has turned into a second succession.
If the south seceded, they would starve within a year. The south is mostly welfare recipients.
The blue states pay for them!
they can leave anytime and should not let the door hit them where the Good Lord split them.
@Jeb Johnston Yes, thanks.
I’ve wondered why we even bothered to take them back.
Foh great
https://youtu.be/0AcMp9JJ8q0
The rioters, being a cover for the real killers who were going after our leaders, is the most frightening of all.
Leaders or losers??
Sec of defense goes to prison! Especially if he’s newly placed since the election. HELLO!!!!!
Why does common sense have to take a back seat to trump’s insanity? This is ridiculous.
What happened two days ago at the white house plays into the hands of the Democrats…. they couldn’t have hoped for better outcomes…. they were praying for it to happen!!
@Deborah C Very well said Deborah, I myself have in the past days been drawing parallels in my mind between the victims of love scams and those who still believe this ‘stolen election’ lie, who are immediately ready to believe that it was actually BLM and Antifa who ransacked the Capitol, who immediately wrote off Mike Pence as an enemy and a hidden agent of the ‘deep state’ when they heard he refused to declare Trump winner of the election in congress (as if he could really do that), people who still cling to all those untruths after they have been proven false time and time again, and seem to be simply utterly unable to let go of those beliefs.
@Harold 888 OR maybe, Just maybe, trump played his own supporters, and they ended up cucking the whole republican party!
Why police just do not search those ANTIFA people that were there? And arrest Police Officers that start to shot innocent people as soon as ANTIFA left???
Goh great
https://youtu.be/0AcMp9JJ8q0
Yet in his speech he says that he ‘immediately ‘ sent in th NG. We all know the truth
Pence eventually did
Because he did, this is a coverup and additional lie.. like so many we are fed as of late..
Hmm the National Guard wasn’t “in limbo” in Kenosha, Wisconsin… Why is that??
With BLM & ANTIFA , The democrat govenors rejected Trumps offer of National Guard.
MSNBC more fake news as usual
@Ian Worcester no that’s not what happened after the national guard was there a few days then that state government send them away.
Trump only did that because they were black with his racist self. Wake up so Trump didn’t say yes to troops bro the people were white rioters a
Toh great
https://youtu.be/0AcMp9JJ8q0
They were allowed to do this, why can’t we see this. It was Trump way of stopping the certification.
You’re right. https://youtu.be/BUE4TCLlv-c
Trying to start a civil war
More proof that fascists are infiltrated. They have a lot of people bent on backing the extreme right insurrection by looking at the other side.
This was a inside job that’s it that’s all.Why wasn’t they prepared?everyone knew something was going to happen.
Yes but the rioters are “Special people”
Yes, and the literally have footage of police officers opening the barricades to let them in and some officers taking selfies with the rioters inside! Why aren’t they stressing that issue??? When the riots started after Floyd’s killing! They had footage of officers smashing windows and setting up bricks!! Why isn’t this news! The footage is on YouTube and IG! They are ridiculous! They had the man power to control the situation and the purposely allowed this!
LIVE LOVE LAUGH Amen! Also, I didn’t see any black folks in this insurrection act.
We should be worried the next 13 days………….
Toh great

@Wilkse1 and are loved.❤by trump.
Investigators must follow this all the way and bring everyone to justice.
@Christopher SorenLow IQ dummy.
@K H They’re still not going to do jack. They want all his Trump supporters no matter how rabid they are to vote for them in the future. It’s just political ambition and pure cowardice.

exactly.
Hopefully the so-called Secretary of Defense together with the so-called President and the rest of the gang will be arrested at some point.
