SHOCKING: New Testimony Shows The PENTAGON Refused Capitol Protection On J6?!

One of the Left's biggest weapons against Trump is their weaponization and manipulation of the events of January 6th. Thousands of Americans believe the lies that have been spewed by the Left regarding what happened that day. But as more evidence comes out, the more it appears that the Left knew what their plans were regarding this day from the beginning. Blaze Media correspondent Steve Baker joined Glenn to share the revelations discovered from newly released testimony, including evidence that shows that it was the PENTAGON that denied National Guard protection for the Capitol on January 6th due to 'bad optics.'

GLENN: I want to introduce you to Steve Baker. He's an investigative idealist. Blaze media correspondent. Yeah. He's the guy that might go to jail. In fact, I think if the election goes the wrong way, he's going to go to jail.

He was parading -- parading.

In the Capitol building. Which he really wasn't. He was standing with his back up against the wall.

Recording, and doing the job of a journalist.

STU: What evidence do you have of that?

GLENN: I have the film of it. The whole time he was there. We have the -- the whole time he was there.

STU: Yeah. And it doesn't show him doing any of that stuff? Okay. That's good. That's pretty good evidence.

GLENN: No, it doesn't. But anyway, Steve is with us now. Hi, Steve, how are you?

STEVE: And good morning to you too.

GLENN: Thank you. Yeah. So I want to ask you about a couple of things.

First of all, give us an update. Because I understand, that we just broke -- breaking news on the replays. About the three hours. On what was it? Nineteen minutes of the National Guard not coming to the Capitol. Explain the story quickly and then give us the update.

STEVE: Right. I'll give this story as concisely as I can.

We have been really fortunate to come into contact with some very high-ranking officials, not only within Congress, the government. But also the Pentagon. And one of the most recent relationships that I've been able to develop, and get really close to.

Is former Assistant Secretary of the Army. Stacey Ordenski (phonetic), and he was referred to me by a Congressional aide.

And said, I think this guy might talk to you.

And this is a guy that was not only 30 years in the Army, teaches at West Point. Chief economist of the Pentagon.

GLENN: Wow.

STEVE: But managed an 80-billion dollar budget over manpower, as the assistant secretary of the army.

GLENN: Wow.

STEVE: We're not talking about an unqualified --

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah.

STEVE: Or inexperienced.

GLENN: Low.

STEVE: Not a DEI hire. Let's just say that.

GLENN: Okay.

STEVE: So I've had dozens of calls with him, and then actually been able to meet with him in DC when we both happened to be there at the same time.

And as a result of that, he decided to go on the record with us. And reveal to TheBlaze, that he was on the teleconference call. In fact, they used his system, that day. When the army, or the Pentagon yens. The guys that answered directly to Mark Milley. Who was chairman of the Joint Chiefs of staffs at the time. These were the four-star. And three-star generals. Were on the conference call. With the National Guard commanders at the same time. Discussing the deployment of the guard.

After Capitol Police chief's son was desperately trying to get them to come town and assist them. They were only blocks away.

GLENN: And they were ready.

STEVE: They were completely ready. And this is what the guard commanders were trying to convey. But the Pentagon pukes. The guys who answer directly to Milley were saying, we're not so sure about the optics of this.

So we originally thought that the phrase, we don't like the optics came from Nancy Pelosi.

And three and a half years ago, the second story I ever wrote about January 6th, was actually entitled, who was up the chain, on January 6th?

And that's where I mentioned the optics quote, and applied that.

Because it came from her sergeant-at-arms of the house, Paul Irving, passed along to her. So we just assumed it was Pelosi.

No. It was passed along from these generals, at the source. At the Pentagon. On this teleconference call, which Stacey -- assistant secretary Stacey Ordenski (phonetic) was on that call, and he laid it all out to us.

GLENN: And this is the first time ever, in the history of the National Guard. That there has been a problem in the -- in Washington.

And they have not gone in to quell it. First time.

STEVE: That's exactly it. And so much detail. Of course, we have the article up just now. Just an article ago. Representative Barry Loudermilk. Who is the chairman of the oversight subcommittee. He dropped a bomb, just an hour ago, while we're getting ready. And preparing for this interview right here.

And he drops a list of transcripts, related to the National Guard deployment. And we've heard, you know, that Trump said that he wanted the guard there.

And we heard Kash Patel say that. And corroborate that. And there's been this back and forth argument.

It's in writing.

GLENN: Oh, my gosh.

STEVE: I want to read one quote. Just one, from General Mark Milley. Former general, Joint Chiefs of Staff.

January 3rd, '21. The president just says, hey, look at this. This is going to be a large amount of protesters, here on the sixth.

Make sure that you have sufficient National Guard or soldiers to make sure, it's a safe event.


GLENN: Oh, my gosh.

STEVE: Trump says, hey. I don't care if you use guard or soldiers.

Act of duty soldiers.

Do whatever you have to do.

Just make sure it's safe.

Boom. Done.

GLENN: Unbelievable. And that's not going to be reported.

STEVE: His campaign has to get on this. Right away.

GLENN: Oh, yeah. Yeah.

All right. Let me -- let me switch gears. And talk to you about gates came out, and said, I don't know if this is verified anywhere.

But Gaetz came out and said, there are now five assassination teams going after the president.

He said, three of them, he believes are foreign. And two of them are domestic.

What do we know about -- have we made progress on either of these investigations?

STEVE: Well, you know Eric Prince. That's his deepest fear. That he will move beyond the lone gunman, or the disaffected man, whatever insane guy from North Carolina. Whatever the case may be. That it will move to a Venezuelan gang. Or it will move to an Iranian --

GLENN: Sure. You've seen. You're seeing how the Secret Service move. You see their weaknesses. You see it all. Why wouldn't you take that shot, if you were Iran?

STEVE: Right. That's what we've been calling on since the first assassination attempt back during July 13th. That the president needs to augment, if not replace his security while he still legally can before the election and bring in his own private security.

GLENN: I agree.

STEVE: Obviously the secret service are not doing their job.

GLENN: I 100 percent agree. 100 percent agree.

So what is the latest on -- the shooter at the golf course? Do you have anything?

STEVE: Yeah. We just released a story this morning.

I did. And you're not going to believe this. So we know about the police standoff that he had with Greensboro Police, and Guilford County, North Carolina, sheriff's department back in 2002.

GLENN: Right. Charged with a weapon of mass destruction. And actually convicted of that. Did he ever go to jail? Prison.

STEVE: Glenn, you're not going to believe what I'm about to tell you.

Before that incident, five months before, he was arrested for being found with multiple explosive devices, was on his own recognizance released at that time, on probation. At the time, he did the -- the three-hour standoff with local police. With the gun. With the alleged automatic rifle.

GLENN: How did he not go to prison?

STEVE: He didn't just not go to prison. While he's -- after going through the legal process.

And being convicted.

And then being released, and being on five years probation. Somehow, he was granted travel, to Costa Rica.

Now, I don't know if you've ever been to Costa Rica or not. But there's only three reasons for going to Costa Rica. Two of them are not good.
(laughter)

GLENN: What are the two reasons that are not good?

I've not been to Costa Rica.

STEVE: Sex trade and money laundering operations.

GLENN: Okay.

STU: The third one, what? It's pretty.

STEVE: Yeah. Pretty. It's great. Great beaches. Great resorts.

GLENN: Okay. Well, if I'm ever in Costa Rica, that's why I'm going. At your recommendation.

And so, but that doesn't make sense.

That's like Jeffrey Epstein kind of stuff.

That everybody knows, but for some reason they let him go. And is this just incompetence? Was this reimagining the police and justice?

Or, no. He's white.

What happened?

STEVE: All right. He is a career criminal.

He has charges going all the way back to when he was in high school.

He's a guy who has had over hundred criminal charges leveled against him.

I think he has 74 arrests.

That's why he was so calm on his arrest last Sunday.

He had that smirk on his face. He was so calm.

Just another day at the office for him. In terms of him being arrested by cops.

He's had multiple felony convictions. He's never spent a day in prison. As a result of that.

GLENN: How?

STEVE: Okay. Well, we interviewed. I interviewed the former conservative sheriff.

Out of North Carolina. Out of the bill Ford county.

And he told me that the county there, Guilford County is traditionally extremely liberal.

And that they would rather release people. And plea them down, rather than go through the process of -- they are government workers. So they would actually have to go to work, if they were to do a trial.

GLENN: Wait a minute. If you have a machine gun. If you have a fully automatic weapon. That's ATF. That's a federal crime.

STEVE: That's exactly what the sheriff said. That crime in particular, should have been referred to the federal authorities.

It should have been adjudicated there. It was not. It was pled down locally to a concealed carry --

GLENN: This is just -- a concealed carry.

He's got a fully automatic weapon.

And he's a criminal.

He shouldn't have had it in the first place. He shouldn't have had a gun.

STEVE: So we are told. That's correct.

Now, the only other thing, if we pull back from the ledge. If I try to pull a Stu right here.

And that's this.

Is that if he is insane, we have another rob.

This is indicative, of why there are so many homeless people on the streets.

Because we have no place to put insane people at him.

And rather than putting this before a judge and be a judge going, the dude is crazy.

We have nowhere to put these people.

GLENN: Is he crazy?

STEVE: Some say that he is. And when we have testimony now.

We have this nurse, coincidentally from west Palm Beach. That was over in Ukraine.

With Ryan Ralph. Who was saying, that he was a nut. When he was over there.

That he was a constant problem.

GLENN: She's the one that reported him, when she got back here. Right?

STEVE: Right. Now, when she gave that report, I sent that report. That Wall Street Journal article, over to awful our sources in the intelligence community.

All of our sources. Special Ops community.

All of our sources, in former -- all of our former FBI guys.

To a man, everyone responded, BS. She's a CHS. This was --

GLENN: Which HS.

STEVE: Confidential human source. And that this is just a disinformation article.

This is not me saying this. This is the response I got from every one of them.

Including the guys you know. Like Steve Friend. In the interview.

GLENN: Okay.

Just keep on these stories, Steve. I really appreciate it.

And keep us updated. God bless. That's Steve Baker, investigative journalist. Blaze Media correspondent. Both of those stories are available right now at Theblaze.com.

Meet the ACTIVIST Judges Blocking Trump’s Agenda

There is a judicial coup happening against President Trump, Glenn argues. Glenn exposes the activist Obama and Biden-era judges who are conducting a full-scale, coordinated assault against the mandate that the American people gave Trump. There’s Judge James Boasberg, who tried to stop Trump from deporting illegal immigrant criminals. Then, there’s Judge Ana Reyes, who halted Trump’s trans ban in the military (and who also has a long history of donating to Democrats). Also fighting Trump are judges Theodore Chang and Amir Ali, who are trying to reverse Trump’s dismantling of USAID. This isn’t normal “checks and balances.” This is left-wing judges using lawfare to play president and fight the dismantling of the deep state.

Sage Steele Reveals How God Saved Her from Disney’s Axe

Former ESPN host Sage Steele joins Glenn to tell the incredible story of how she overcame fear, fought Disney for canceling her, and won: “It’s all God.” When she put her trust in Him, she says, her fear went away. “It was smarter to stay quiet...But, God, it feels good to be true to myself.”

EU Elites’ Shocking Plot to Sabotage Trump Exposed!

Are European Union elites working to “sabotage” President Trump’s plans for the West? Glenn speaks with Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts, who makes the case that Trump is trying to reset the West and stop the “managed decline” of the World Economic Forum’s Great Reset. But many European leaders are so embedded into that old system that they won’t go down without a fight. Glenn and Kevin also discuss Trump’s negotiations with Mexico and Canada, whether former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss was right to call Britain a “failed state,” and why Kevin believes Trump’s cabinet, JD Vance, and one other thing are Trump’s biggest wins.

Former Sniper WARNS Major “Instability” May Hit This Summer

Former U.S. Army Special Forces Sniper Tim Kennedy joins Glenn to warn that “real instability” is coming across many parts of the world, including the Middle East, Haiti, Congo, and other parts of Africa. And one of the main signs of this is “the killing of Christians” at high levels in those regions. With a civil war brewing in Afghanistan, “genocide” level attacks in regions of Africa, and more trouble on the horizon, predictive models have found that things could very likely boil over soon. But Kennedy details how the Trump administration, especially Tulsi Gabbard, Kash Patel, and Pam Bondi, are working overtime to “get ahead of what we know is coming” and keep Americans safe.

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: We're talking to Tim Kennedy. Talking to the president about the border, and what's going on with the border this week. And I said, you know, if I were, you know, a Mexican citizen. And knowing that my government was in bed with the cartels. I would be hoping that some special forces just showed up in the middle of the night. And started killing people. In these cartels. And I said, well, that would be news breaking if I said that was a good idea.

You know, I hope it doesn't come to that. It was clear, that that is on the table. I mean, that really has to happen. Does it not?

I mean, that is a collapsed narco state in Mexico. Isn't it?

MATT: Yeah, we -- the rules of war that we'll be experiencing for the next five to ten years are not the traditional maneuver warfare that people remember from Korea and from Vietnam, and from even -- you know, we know who our enemy is. These are going to be businesses.

These are syndicated criminal organizations, that do not fight fair, and the cartel owns both the businesses, the corporations, and the criminal networks that are involved in that.

So, yes. It's absolutely on the table. And a group of people that are sitting on like the go button, are absolute savages, Mr. Beck.

GLENN: They are. I know some of them. I know some of them.

And they're just like -- and they're just -- they're just champing at the bit to go, I know. I know.

TIM: That's the truth.

We're in conversation with the cartels right now. And the cartels are saying, hey, we don't want to die. We don't want to be wiped off the face of the planet, which we know is not going to happen. So, you know, are there other options. Hey, what if we stopped human trafficking?

What if we stopped fentanyl production entirely?

What if -- what if all of that just goes away. What if we stop and seal the border on the south side. What are you -- will we maybe be allowed to transport some cocaine and some marijuana?

I'm totally fine with this. If we stop fentanyl. Human trafficking. Gun smuggling. And we stop the invasion of our border, I'll -- and we don't have to do a while bunch of killing.

You know, whatever.

But they know they're on the brink of --

GLENN: I hope they do.

TIM: Of existence.

GLENN: I hope they do.

You know, when you look at what's happening here.

And what they're bringing over here.

I mean, it has to stop, dead in its tracks.

It has to stop.

And it has to stop soon. The president is dealing with these courts. Which I just think is judicial insurrection as Mike Lee puts it. And it has to stop.

The president has to protect our borders, and has to protect our cities. This is -- you know, this is the opium wars, done to China by the English.

You know, 200 years ago. 150 years ago. And now they're doing it to us.

That's what -- that's what is happening.

TIM: Yeah.

GLENN: Tell me about the Christians and genocide, that you believe is on the horizon.

TIM: Just yesterday.

Back at the White House yesterday.

Listening to some brief about -- there's some brilliant companies that are able to do predictive modeling.

Using literally every public and classified source of information.

And there's these events that are pretty predictable.

You know, they predicted what would happen in Afghanistan. Predicted what would happen in Ukraine.

They see regionally that on the very near horizon, as soon as like late summer.

We are going to see real instability throughout CENTCOM and the Endo-Pacific region.
And some of those things -- some of the catalysts that are -- the data points are what are the killing of Christians.

And it's happening all over CENTCOM.

And --

GLENN: Explain CENTCOM. Explain CENTCOM for anybody who doesn't what CENTCOM means. Explain that.

TIM: Just imagine the Middle East starting kind of in north Africa.

And western Asia. And everything that has lots of deserts. And lots of Muslim countries -- just -- by coincidence, there's also Israel. That's in CENTCOM.

One of the few non-Muslim democracies, in that whole entire region.

Ask, you know, the Houthis and Hamas. And Hezbollah.

And then in former countries, like in Syria and Iraq, Afghanistan, those places, it's just a massacre of Christians, right now.

GLENN: So let me take a one-minute break.

Come back, because I want to talk to you more about that. Because you've been involved. We've been with you with Mercury One, and trying to help. And I know what we're gearing up for.

And I want to see if there's anything that you need and you would recommend, besides told prayers for Christians.

And I want to go deeper into what this predictive model is showing in just a second.

First, let me tell you about Preborn.

You know, if you were in the room with a woman who was thinking about giving up her baby.

What would you say?

If a scared young woman looked you in the eye and said, I don't think I could do this.

I'm alone. I don't know if it's really a baby yet.

What would you do?

Would you yell at her? Would you say, you can't do that! You'll go to hell.

Or would you tell her, you're strong enough. You are. Show her pictures of your kids maybe. Talk about miracles?

Talk about God? Talk about anything?

Anything. We're here for you. Would you just wait.

None of us would show her pictures of an aborted baby. None of us would yell at her.

Okay? The truth is, we'll never be in that room. Most of us. But Preborn will not be in that room. They don't argue or shame.

They do something really simple. It turns out, it's very persuasive. Just offer her a free ultrasound. And when she hears that tiny heartbeat. When she sees the image on the screen, everything changes. More than half the time the mom chooses life, the rest of the time, she's like, I -- I just -- I'm alone. I can't afford.

And that's where they come in, after that. They take care of mom. This saves two lives. This saves the life of torture for that woman, and the baby's life.

Please, donate your best gift today.

Go to #250. Say the key word baby for Preborn. It's #250. Key word baby. You know, just a few bucks pays for an ultrasound, and it just changes lives. Saves lives. Preborn.com/Beck. Sponsored by he Preborn. Preborn.com/Beck. Ten-second station ID.
(music)

GLENN: So, Tim, maybe we'll have you on -- we're doing a big benefit for the Nazarene Fund.

This fall.

I don't even have details on it. I just heard about it yesterday.

What that is, we go and rescue Christians. Or we pay and help people like you, go rescue Christians.

We just empower people like you, to help.

I would love to invite to that. When we get closer, I will.

Tell me about this predictive model. Why is it saying that it's going to get so bad? What's coming our way?

TIM: Yeah.

The Nazarene Fund, and Mercury One, just for -- love you guys.

I don't -- you know, we publicly can't say a lot of the things that we do at save our allies.

But none of it is possible without you, quite frankly.

Like if you look at me, and our team in Afghanistan. Or in Ukraine. Providing humanitarian aid. And pulling people out of the war zones.

Although to the Far East, as far as I possibly can get in far Russia.

Every place that we have been, has been because of you, quite frankly. Mr. Beck.

GLENN: Please. Stop calling me Mr. Beck.

Give credit. This audience is so gracious. They are so gracious.

TIM: Yeah. They just have an understanding.

Samaritan purse. Mercury One. Nazarene Fund.

We see you guys every single place, in the worst, most dire condition. So, you know, Glenn, thank you so much.

To your question, you know, we are -- if you just look in the past month, you know, you can look to Syria. You can look to the -- next to our bill.

You can look to the Congo.

Where you see thousands of Christians being killed.

You see Muslim converts, that were being specifically targeted. Down in Congo just last week.
Another 29 Christians were killed. In 2025, in like the region in Syria. There was like this region of violence. Another thousand were killed.

And so if you take -- if we're going to look for similar areas in the region, and try to predict the instability of a particular administration or government.

There's a whole bunch of -- and we can take historical data from the past 50 years. And start looking at, okay.

Economically, what is happening for instability?

What is happening culturally?

What is happening on -- in the markets?

What's happening in like -- really clear data points. And we have this bell curve of what's normal. And then you have these outliers that are -- that then keep occurring, every time there's a coup. Or every time there's genocide.

Or every time -- and there's enough data now, where we -- especially with AI. And we can scrape all of history.

We can then very accurately start, you know -- all the special operations side. I'm trying to find somebody in space and time.

It's -- that's -- used to be a difficult thing, to predict where a human is going to be.

So I could maybe bring them to justice, and if we look at the first 95 days of the president in office, and our intelligence community specifically, that told them they're going to work. With, you know, Kash Patel, enabling them. Pam Bondi.
45 Americans that have been illegally detained abroad brought home.

You know, we're knocking on the door of 100 radical terrorists, want to do harm to Americans. Dead.

And we are trying to get ahead of what we know is coming. Which is, complete near Civil War in Afghanistan.

Trying to get stability in Congo -- obviously, we see what's happening in Haiti.

And every time one of these places starts becoming less secure and stable, that is the breeding ground for radical adversarial groups, that are funded by our adversaries, like and mine Iran.

To then conduct attacks on Americans.

But they're not doing it direct.

It's like via proxy.

But Haiti, if we don't pay attention to it, China will use it.

Congo will --

GLENN: Yeah, I know.

TIM: And it just keeps happening.

GLENN: Tim, I can't thank you enough for what you do. You're really a remarkable man. It was such an honor to see you at the White House.

And as usual, see you at the White House and you're serving. Serving veterans.

So thank you for everything, Tim.

God bless you.

TIM: Yeah, you're amazing. Always in your corner. Let me know what you need.

GLENN: You've got it. Thank you, Tim Kennedy. US Army Special Forces. He's a sniper. Former UFC fighter, and really a servant to our vets.

Next year, it's going to be a tough year. All the way around us the world.

It's going to be very tough. What he's saying, is coming.

I -- you know, people say, I think Donald Trump will say for a reason, to save the republic. I'm not sure, that we understand God's mind.

It may have just been to postpone and give us more time to prepare. I'm not sure.

I hope we save the republic. But it might be time to prepare. Because things are very, very dicey in the world, and we just need to be prayerful.

Thoughtful. Jesus-like people.
