Secretary of the Army Ryan D. McCarthy (appointed by Trump on June 2020, probably when this coup was being planned) refused to even consider sending in the National Guard after repeated pleas from the Governor until 90-minutes after the Capitol building was stormed.

Two Capitol Police Officers Suspended and More Under Investigation for Alleged Roles in rRotFrom CNN's Annie Grayer and Ryan Nobles
Two Capitol Police officers have been suspended for their alleged roles in the riot on Jan. 6, said Rep. Tim Ryan, who is chair of the House Appropriations subcommittee handling the investigation into the police response to the Capitol attack last week.
"I know that there were two people that were suspended," Ryan said during a press call. "One was the selfie officer and another was an officer that put a MAGA hat on that started directing some people around," the lawmaker said.
Ryan confirmed that there are approximately 10 to 15 Capitol Police officers under investigation for their behavior during the riot, but he did not have specific details.
Ryan told reporters that one individual had been arrested, but a spokesperson for the congressman later said he was wrong and no members of law enforcement have been arrested.
The federal investigative interest is a priority and a part of the broader investigation into the mob at the Capitol, sources said. The investigation into insurrectionist ties to law enforcement is a priority because the skills that officers are trained to use during their duties could be useful to an extremist mob, authorities say. This includes clearing rooms, taking custody of people, securing areas and handling firearms.
this should really be it's own topic[/QUOTE]
A Capitol Police officer facing disciplinary action told investigators that he posed for a photo with a suspect during the January 6th riot in order to identify him later. But the officer never shared that plan with his supervisor, the Capitol Police's investigations unit, or the FBI. The officer, whose name is redacted from the documents, is one of six facing disciplinary action related to the January 6th riot.
In addition to the cases of unbecoming conduct, a special agent in the department's Protective Services Bureau faces disciplinary action on an allegation of improper dissemination of information. The allegation stems from a conversation the officer had with a friend the week after the riot in which he allegedly revealed information about the secure location he helped evacuate lawmakers to during the riot.
