Fresh footage provided to Congress shows former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) admitting it was her “responsibility” that the National Guard troops offered by President Trump were not present at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. The news confirms a report by The National Pulse which dates back to January 11, 2021, wherein we stated:
…outgoing Capitol Police Chief, Steve Sund, believes his efforts to secure the premises were undermined by a lack of concern from House and Senate security officials who answer directly to Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate leader Mitch McConnell.
The new footage was apparently shot by Pelosi’s daughter, Alexandra Pelosi, and handed to congressional investigators by HBO. It was not presented to the January 6 Committee during its investigation into the Capitol riot.

The Oversight Subcommittee highlighted this footage on social media, emphasizing Pelosi’s admission. Representative Barry Loudermilk shared the video, arguing that it contradicts the narrative upheld by Pelosi’s Select Committee on January 6.
The January 6 Committee, tasked with investigating the riot, did not subpoena Nancy Pelosi nor her daughter for documents and evidence related to the event.
In the video, Pelosi expresses regret, saying, “We did not have any accountability for what was going on there. And we should have… Why weren’t the National Guard there to begin with?” She concludes, “I take responsibility for not having them [the National Guard] just prepare for war.”
Check the dates. I know what you're thinking.
