In a stunning turn of events, former Capitol Hill Chief of Police Steven Sund has publicly called out Nancy Pelosi, exposing a shocking failure of leadership during the January 6 Capitol attack. In a blistering statement, Sund revealed that he had requested National Guard assistance just three days prior to the insurrection, only to have his urgent pleas denied by Pelosi’s sergeant-at-arms. “It is long past time to be honest with the American people,” Sund declared, accusing Pelosi of shifting blame while the Capitol was under siege.

Sund’s revelations come amid rising crime rates in Washington D.C., where local officials grapple with a surge in violence, including car thefts and shootings just blocks from the Capitol. “If you’re 14 to 17 and you shoot someone in D.C., I cannot prosecute you,” lamented a local DA, underscoring the urgent need for reform. With crime spiraling out of control, President Trump has vowed to restore order by federalizing law enforcement in the capital, a move that has sparked fierce debate across party lines.

Pelosi’s recent social media posts have drawn sharp criticism, as she attempts to deflect attention from her role in the events of January 6. Sund’s account, which details repeated rejections of his requests for help during the attack, paints a grim picture of mismanagement and neglect at the highest levels of government. “Lives were at stake, yet my calls for assistance were met with silence for over 70 minutes,” he stated, emphasizing the urgency of the situation.

As the nation watches closely, the fallout from Sund’s revelations could reshape the political landscape, igniting further scrutiny of Pelosi’s leadership and the ongoing crime crisis in D.C. With calls for accountability growing louder, the question remains: will those in power finally take the necessary steps to ensure the safety of the capital and its citizens? The stakes have never been higher.
