October 28, 20214 yr Author The Official and Unofficial Timeline of Defense Department Actions on January 6 https://www.justsecurity.org/76117/the-official-and-unofficial-timeline-of-defense-department-actions-on-january-6/ The parts in black text are the official timeline. The blue comments are added from info found later. by Kate Brannen and Ryan Goodman May 11, 2021 In advance of Wednesday’s congressional hearing on "unexplained delays and unanswered questions” pertaining to the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, we are revisiting the day’s events, focusing closely on the Defense Department’s actions. Central to this exercise is the timeline DoD released on Jan. 8, which was intended to "memorialize the planning and execution efforts” taken by the Pentagon in response to the violence unfolding three miles away. When it was made public, the timeline provided the public new information about how the day unfolded for senior Defense Department officials: who they spoke to and when they made key decisions. Since then, new testimony and reporting has revealed significant information was omitted from the document. And, as the AP reported in April, an internal DoD timeline — never released to the public — included pivotal moments that the public document failed to mention. One of the consequential conversations not included by DoD in its public timeline took place just after rioters had penetrated the scaffolding around the Capitol and were making their way into the building. During the phone call, U.S. Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund pleaded with senior Army leaders for help. According to the testimony of at least three people on the call, Army leaders did not respond to those pleas with immediate support or affirmation. Instead, they raised concerns about how it would look to have members of the National Guard on the steps of the U.S. Capitol, as well as concerns that the presence of the Guard could inflame the rioters. The Pentagon did not disclose this conversation when it released its timeline in the days after Jan. 6. It also tried to hide the fact that Michael Flynn’s brother, Lt. Gen. Charles Flynn, was one of the participants. Flynn, who serves as the Army’s deputy chief of staff for operations, plans and training, later admitted to being on the call. Following this midday conversation, news of it started to immediately leak to journalists and officials in D.C. city government, who then began reporting that DoD had denied a request for additional support for the D.C. National Guard. This led to widespread confusion, especially as it soon emerged that, behind the scenes, Defense Department leaders were in the process of granting the authorities to mobilize the Guard. (Read the timeline for more on the distinction between the authorization to mobilize and the authorization to deploy the Guard.) For those commanding the situation on the ground, the Defense Department’s response seemed unusual and unnecessarily slow. According to Maj. Gen. William Walker, the commander of the D.C. National Guard, he specifically told Congress that he didn’t receive approval to deploy his troops until three hours and 19 minutes after he first shared Sund’s frantic request for backup with the Army. Questions remain about why Defense Department leaders didn’t move faster; why they constrained Walker’s authorities in the days leading up to Jan. 6; why they weren’t in better communication with the people who needed to speak with them that day; and why they weren’t more forthcoming about the conversations they had and the decisions they made. Real mistakes were made and they are worth congressional and public scrutiny, but whatever bad decisions or failures of leadership took place at the Defense Department over the course of those fateful days, they should not distract from the bigger picture: Donald Trump urged his supporters to believe the fantasy that he won the election in a landslide and that the effort to certify Joe Biden’s win was a subversion of democracy. More important still, he continues to push this lie even after seeing how dangerous the consequences are for the country. With all of this in mind, we’ve crafted this timeline, using the original DoD timeline as its basis (in black text), but supplementing it with information from reporting, congressional transcripts, interviews, and contemporaneous social media posts to fill in some of the gaps and provide additional context (in blue text).. Thursday, December 31, 2020 (New Year’s Eve) Mayor Muriel Bowser and Christopher Rodriguez, D.C. director of Homeland Security and Emergency Management Agency, deliver a written request for D.C. National Guard support to D.C. Metro Police Department (MPD) and Fire and Emergency Service. Friday, January 1, 2021 According to his testimony, Maj. Gen. William Walker, commander of the D.C. National Guard, sends a letter to Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy requesting approval for the mayor’s request. Saturday, January 2, 2021 Acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller confers with Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley and Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy on Bowser’s written request. Sunday, January 3, 2021 DoD confirms with U.S. Capitol Police that there is no request for DoD support. Miller meets with select members of President Donald Trump’s Cabinet to discuss DoD support to law enforcement agencies and potential requirements for DoD support. Miller and Milley meet with Trump. According to the Defense Department, "the president concurs in activation of the D.C. National Guard to support law enforcement.” Monday, January 4, 2021 U.S. Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund, Senate Sergeant at Arms Michael Stenger and House Sergeant at Arms Paul Irving meet to discuss a possible role for the D.C. National Guard on Jan. 6. In written testimony, Sund and Irving disagree on whether there was agreement on the role that the Guard should play. Irving testified that "We did discuss whether the intelligence warranted having troops at the Capitol, and our collective judgment at that time was no—the intelligence did not warrant that.” Irving said the proposal discussed on Jan. 4 was to use National Guard troops for traffic duty to free up U.S. Capitol Police officers. "Our ultimate need for the National Guard was starkly different than unarmed troops for traffic duty,” he testified. Sund testified that he approached Stenger and Irving to request the assistance of the National Guard, because he had no authority to do so without an Emergency Declaration by the Capitol Police Board. Irving told him he was "concerned about the ‘optics’ of having National Guard present and didn’t feel that the intelligence supported it.” According to Sund, Stenger suggested he ask the D.C. National Guard "how quickly we could get support if needed and to ‘lean forward’ in case we had to request assistance on January 6.” Following this suggestion, Sund says he calls Walker, who tells him "that he could repurpose nearby National Guard and have them to me fairly quickly, once approved.” U.S. Capitol Police confirms there is no requirement for DoD support in a phone call with McCarthy. Miller, in consultation with Milley, McCarthy and the Defense Department’s general counsel Paul Ney, reviews the Pentagon’s plan to be prepared to provide support to civil authorities, if asked, and approves activation of 340 members of the D.C. National Guard to support Mayor Bowser’s request. According to DoD, the Guard members are provided for: Traffic Control Points: 90 personnel (180 total/2 shifts); Metro station support: 24 personnel (48 total/2 shifts); Weapons of Mass Destruction Civil Support Team: 20 personnel; and Internal Command and Control: 52 personnel. Miller also authorizes McCarthy to deploy a Quick Reaction Force (QRF) of 40 personnel staged at Joint Base Andrews) if additional support is requested by civil authorities. Enrique Tarrio, the leader of the Proud Boys, the violent far-right group, is arrested in Washington, D.C. on his way into the city from the airport. Tuesday, January 5, 2021 Mayor Bowser delivers a letter addressed to acting Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen, Miller, and McCarthy confirming that there are no additional support requirements from the D.C. [sic] Bowser tweets, "To be clear, the District of Columbia is not requesting other federal law enforcement personnel and discourages any additional deployment without immediate notification to, and consultation with, MPD if such plans are underway.” Her letter cites the Trump administration’s use of armed "unidentifiable personnel” during the summer’s protests and how their deployment caused confusion for the city’s residents and law enforcement officers. Walker receives approval in a letter dated Jan. 5 from McCarthy "granting support of the MPD with 340 total personnel to include 40 personnel assigned to a Quick Reaction Force.” However, Walker notes in his written congressional testimony that this letter from McCarthy "withheld” the authority for him to actually deploy this force. McCarthy’s letter also required that a "concept of operation” or CONOP be submitted to McCarthy before any employment of the QRF. "I found that requirement to be unusual as was the requirement to seek approval to move Guardsmen supporting MPD to move from one traffic control point to another,” Walker wrote. "Nineteen years I never had that before happen,” Walker said during a congressional hearing. 255 D.C. National Guard members arrive in the city and begin to manage traffic control points alongside local law enforcement. The FBI Field Office in Norfolk, Va., issues a warning that extremists were planning on traveling to D.C. and committing violence on Jan. 6. According to news reports and subsequent testimony, Sund was not made aware of this report. Wednesday, January 6, 2021 8:30 Miller and Milley review DoD’s plan to support law enforcement agencies and request an exercise regarding DoD contingency response options. 11:30 Miller participates in a table-top exercise regarding DoD contingency response options. 12:00 Trump begins his speech, telling the crowd, "We will never give up, we will never concede. It doesn’t happen. You don’t concede when there’s theft involved.” 12:52 Sund receives word that a pipe bomb has been found at the Republican National Committee Headquarters , immediately adjacent to Capitol Grounds. Sund also testified that at the same time, "we observed a large group of individuals approaching the West Front of the Capitol.” He said, "It was immediately clear that their primary goal was to defeat our perimeter as quickly as possible and to get past the police line. This mob was like nothing I have seen in my law enforcement career. The group consisted of thousands of well-coordinated, well-equipped violent criminals. They had weapons, chemical munitions, protective equipment, explosives, and climbing gear. A number of them were wearing radio earpieces indicating a high level of coordination.” 12:58 Sund asks for MPD’s assistance to address the growing violent mob at the Capitol and they respond immediately. Walker testified that if he’d been given the authority to do so he "would have immediately pulled all the guardsmen that were supporting the Metropolitan Police Department,” deployed them to the Capitol and told them to "report to the most ranking Capitol Police officer they saw and take direction.” He told Congress that one of his lieutenant colonels went to the Capitol when the MPD did, anticipating that the D.C. Guard would quickly be sent there too. "He met with Deputy Chief [Jeffrey] Carroll of the Metropolitan Police Department who asked him, where is the National Guard? How come you’re not here? And this colonel said, ‘Well, I’m sure they’re coming. And I’m here to scout out where they’re going to be when they get here.’ So that was the plan. I would have sent them there immediately. As soon as I hung up, my next call would have been to my subordinate commanders get every single guardsman in this building, and everybody that’s helping the Metropolitan Police. Remission them to the Capitol, without delay.” 1:05 Miller receives open-source reports of demonstrator movements to U.S. Capitol. 1:09 Sund notifies the two Sergeants at Arms that he "urgently needed support and asked them to declare a State of Emergency and authorize the National Guard.” Sund testified that Irving tells him he needs to "run it up the chain of command.” When Sund checks back in, Irving tells him he "was waiting to hear back from congressional leadership, but expected authorization at any moment.” Note: Irving disputes the timeline saying Sund’s request came at 1:28 or 2:00 p.m.; acting Capitol Police Chief Yogananda Pittman’s subsequent testimony supports Sund’s account and is based on phone records obtained by Capitol Police. 1:10 Trump ends his speech, urging his followers to walk down Pennsylvania Avenue to the U.S. Capitol.
