âAbsolute liars': Ex-D.C. Guard official says generals lied to Congress about Jan. 6
In a 36-page memo to the Capitol riot committee, Col. Earl Matthews also slams the Pentagonâs inspector general for what he calls an error-ridden report.
A former D.C. National Guard official is accusing two senior Army leaders of lying to Congress and participating in a secret attempt to rewrite the history of the militaryâs response to the Capitol riot.
In a 36-page memo, Col. Earl Matthews, who held high-level National Security Council and Pentagon roles during the Trump administration, slams the Pentagonâs inspector general for what he calls an error-riddled report that protects a top Army official who argued against sending the National Guard to the Capitol on Jan. 6, delaying the insurrection response for hours.
Matthewsâ memo, sent to the Jan. 6 select committee this month and obtained by POLITICO, includes detailed recollections of the insurrection response as it calls two Army generals â Gen. Charles Flynn, who served as deputy chief of staff for operations on Jan. 6, and Lt. Gen. Walter Piatt, the director of Army staff â âabsolute and unmitigated liarsâ for their characterization of the events of that day. Matthews has never publicly discussed the chaos of the Capitol siege.
On Jan. 6, Matthews was serving as the top attorney to Maj. Gen. William Walker, then commanding general of the D.C. National Guard. Matthewsâ memo defends the Capitol attack response by Walker, who now serves as the House sergeant at arms, amplifying Walkerâs previous congressional testimony about the hourslong delay in the militaryâs order for the D.C. National Guard to deploy to the riot scene.
âEvery leader in the D.C. Guard wanted to respond and knew they could respond to the riot at the seat of governmentâ before they were given clearance to do so on Jan. 6, Matthewsâ memo reads. Instead, he said, D.C. guard officials âset [sic] stunned watching in the Armoryâ during the first hours of the attack on Congress during its certification of the 2020 election results.
Matthewsâ memo levels major accusations: that Flynn and Piatt lied to Congress about their response to pleas for the D.C. Guard to quickly be deployed on Jan. 6; that the Pentagon inspector generalâs November report on Army leadershipâs response to the attack was âreplete with factual inaccuraciesâ; and that the Army has created its own closely held revisionist document about the Capitol riot thatâs âworthy of the best Stalinist or North Korea propagandist.â
The memo follows Walkerâs own public call for the inspector general to retract its detailed report on the events of Jan. 6, as first reported by The Washington Post. Walker told the Post he objected to specific allegations by the Pentagon watchdog that Matthewsâ memo also criticizes, calling the inspector generalâs report âinaccurateâ and âsloppy work.â
The new memo from Matthews, who now serves in the Army reserves, emerges as officials involved in the response that day try to explain their decision-making to investigators. The House select committee has probed the attack for months, and earlier this year top officials testified before the House oversight panel.
Reached for comment, Matthews said the memo he wrote is entirely accurate. âOur Army has never failed us and did not do so on January 6, 2021,â he said. âHowever, occasionally some of our Army leaders have failed us and they did so on January 6th. Then they lied about it and tried to cover it up. They tried to smear a good man and to erase history.â
Flynn, now the commanding general of the U.S. Army Pacific, and Piatt didnât respond to messages. Army spokesperson Mike Brady said in a statement that the serviceâs âactions on January 6th have been well-documented and reported on, and Gen. Flynn and Lt. Gen. Piatt have been open, honest and thorough in their sworn testimony with Congress and DOD investigators.â
