Democrats spent four years using January 6 as a weapon against Donald Trump and anyone who voted for him.
A whistleblower just handed Congress a text message that was sent before the first protester touched the Capitol perimeter.
What that message says – and who sent it – makes the official story impossible to believe.
The Text That Was Sent at 9:30 a.m.
Before a single barrier was breached.
Before any window was broken.
Before Nancy Pelosi went on camera demanding Chief Steven Sund's head.
A Capitol Police sergeant named Larry Cook – who today serves as Assistant Sergeant at Arms in the U.S. House of Representatives – sent a message to Deputy Chief Sean Gallagher stating that Assistant Chief Yogananda Pittman was "excited about taking over for Sund today."
At or before 9:30 a.m. on January 6, 2021.
A senior congressional source confirmed to Veritas Regnat the existence and content of the Cook-Gallagher exchange.
This is a documented message – in the possession of a House committee – showing that a senior law enforcement official knew Sund was being removed before the chaos that supposedly justified his removal had begun.
What Sund Himself Said
Chief Sund requested National Guard assistance three days before January 6.
House Sergeant at Arms Paul Irving told him the "optics" were bad.
That word – "optics" applied to a security decision ahead of a day the department's own intelligence flagged as potentially violent – came from Pelosi's orbit, according to Sund's sworn testimony and his book Courage Under Fire.
Trump had authorized up to 20,000 National Guard troops for duty that day.
They never came.
When the Capitol was breached and Sund made an emergency request, he waited 71 minutes for a response.
Sund was forced out the day after the riot.
The people who failed him got promoted.
The Pattern That Cannot Be Explained Away
Pittman was the head of Capitol Police intelligence.
She admitted to Congress she is "not an intelligence analyst."
Her own officers delivered a 92% no-confidence vote against her.
Gallagher, a 2021 whistleblower alleged, sat in the Command Center watching real-time footage of officers being beaten – and did nothing.
"What I observed was them mostly sitting there, blankly looking at the TV screens showing real-time footage of officers and officials fighting for the Congress and their lives," that whistleblower wrote.
Both Pittman and Gallagher were elevated after January 6.
Rank-and-file officers were required to sign non-disclosure agreements in the aftermath – in at least one case, an officer was not permitted to keep a copy of the NDA they signed.
Pittman retired in early 2023 and became police chief at the University of California Berkeley.
Gallagher was named acting USCP chief in June 2025 – drawing immediate backlash from the Capitol Police union, which had given him an 84% no-confidence vote four years earlier for his January 6 leadership failures.
What a Special Counsel Would Find
The new whistleblower – a senior law enforcement official with firsthand knowledge of events before, during, and after January 6 – sent his signed letter to five Republican members of Congress.
He is not asking anyone to speculate.
He is asking for a special counsel, and he specifically does not trust the USCP, the Office of the Inspector General, or either Sergeant at Arms office to handle what he is describing.
"I would strongly urge that this is not disclosed to any members of either sergeant at arms, the USCP or the OIG," he wrote. "If so, I am sure it would be disclosed to the greater group of those involved."
He also states that two individuals involved would "most likely flip if questioned."
Democrats used January 6 to prosecute over a thousand Americans, impeach a president, and attempt to remove Trump from the 2024 ballot.
Every one of those actions rested on a single premise: that January 6 caught law enforcement by surprise and that Trump alone bears responsibility for what unfolded.
A text sent at or before 9:30 a.m. – before anyone touched a barrier – shows a Capitol Police sergeant describing his colleague's excitement about taking a job that wasn't supposed to be open yet.
Either that message means nothing and the timing is a remarkable coincidence.
Or it means exactly what the whistleblower says it means.
There is enough on the record to demand a special counsel find out which.
