[WATCH] Miles Taylor: Trump Incited Jan 6th Insurrection So He Could Impose Martial Law to Stay in Power


A former Department of Homeland Security during the Trump Administration believes Trump was not only fully behind the January 6th plot to keep the election from being certified, but he intended for the resulting chaos to be so severe, he would be “forced” to invoke martial law to remain in office.
Miles Taylor gained notoriety for writing an anonymous op-ed describing a “resistance” within the Trump administration. His proximity to the inner machinations of Trump and his inner circle gave him special insight into Trump’s mindset and behavior before, during, and after the siege on the Capitol on January 6th. “I believe Trump intended to incite an insurrection as a pretext for declaring some form of marshal law. [sic],” Taylor tweeted before the January 6th Committee Hearings began. “He mused about invoking the Insurrection Act YEARS before Jan 6 — calling it a “magic power” — in convos I witnessed & was briefed on.”

It’s been previously reported that others in Trump’s inner circle, including Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), had called for Trump to use his powers to declare martial law ahead of January 6th.
