Former President Donald Trump sat down for a One America News interview with his lawyer Christina Bobb. Like clockwork, the lies just poured out of his mouth, including one about House Speaker Nancy Pelosi that he has repeated ad nauseam.

Trump claimed that the Select Committee investigating the January 6 attack on our Capitol is "looking at everything other than two things. They don't want to know about Nancy Pelosi turning down 10,000 soldiers because she didn't look like the look."

Yeah, because that never happened. That's literally fake news that's been debunked numerous times. Aside from that, the Trump-supporting rioters would have killed Pelosi if they had found her, so why would she not want the National Guard there?

Pelosi's deputy chief of staff, Drew Hammill, told The Dispatch that "the speaker of the House does not have the power to block an order from the commander in chief. This is fiction."

Still, Lumpy went there.

"Have you had 10,000 soldiers for, you know, hundreds of people, they wouldn't have gotten anywhere near the place... There would have been no January 6," the disgraced one-term President insisted.

"There are a lot of people that think they wanted it," Trump claimed without providing even an iota of evidence to support the claim.

"If you had soldiers circling and I recommended it strongly, but it's her decision," he falsely said. "She's the one that has to make the decision. And nobody likes talking about that."

"I knew that a lot of people were coming down. They were coming down because they thought the election was rigged. And they were right," said Trump, who fed that lie to his supporters. "That's why they were coming down. And that's why they don't want to talk about that, and they don't want to talk about the rigged election."

Have you ever wanted to slap someone so hard that their eyes spin around like dice in their head as if you were in a cartoon? Yeah, that's me right now.
