Tuberville, who campaign in Alabama as "Trump's guy," felt the need to re-double the efforts of the Secret Service while...supposedly...in fear of his own life as well.

Seems strange he wouldn't just trust the Secret Service would do their job...
Now the question is whether or not Trump took ANY action or even any INTEREST in whether or not the presidential line of succession was safe while under terrorist attack.

It appears *strongly* that Trump did not. Which begs many questions.
Criminal prosecutors, were they trying Trump for seditious conspiracy and murder conspiracy (which doesn't seem at all a stretch now) would call this a "motive."

Why did Trump do this? To stop the transition of his power.
This timing shows that Trump heard that Pence was evacuated...and still kept up the pressure on him with his followers.

One of the accused, Thomas Edward Caldwell, received a message from an unknown source about the location of those escaping with direction to "TURN ON GAS"
Did Trump know of a plan to keep Congressional reps from escaping and continue to incite violence against them...including *gassing them in tunnels beneath the Capitol?*

We need a definitive answer.
