How was that suppressed?
Christopher Miller was on record that Trump requested 10,000 troops. Jan 6 committee put this in their report... this is even discussed here
Dec 2022
He wanted thousands of National Guard troops to shield him and supporters from any imagined "threat from left-wing counterprotesters," according to testimony.

Maybe something else was suppressed since it is obvious from the links above Trump's request for 10k was public knowledge?
Well, your posts or requests are legitimate in terms of what you are asking, but not shockingly, you are skipping over a few glaring issues with the summary of why any of this an issue.
First, while you may be right that the report contains some evidence that Trump had discussed authorizing the 10K in troops, it is misleading to act as if that is a given and that all the evidence that he'd suggested them was included. Ornato's wasn't and he didn't get called to testify publicly in the mini-series. Most tds'ers and media would maintain that Trump did not want, or they believe that Trump did not want, that level of security or ever offered it.
Second, if Trump had indeed planned an insurrection, etc. as so many claim/believe/repeatedly state, it makes no sense that he would authorize 10K in troops for security. He would do everything he could to lessen security to make the actions succeed instead of providing the means to kick their ass. Thus, proving that he was indeed onboard to having this troop presence is critical to combating the narrative that Trump was involved in planning and participating in an insurrection. If the J6'ers were indeed interested in the truth versus their predetermined agenda, why not include all of this evidence?
Third, if you read the article linked and look at what Ornato said, Trump and his people were concerned with the counter-protestors such as BLM/Antifa and what their interactions with the rally attendees would turn into. I know that many here refuse to educate themselves accordingly, but that type of interaction is exactly why Charlottesville turned so bad. As disgusting as the white supremacists are, they had a permit to legally protest accordingly and, had they been left alone and not confronted by the NON-permitted counter-protestors, things there never would have escalated.
Fourth, and this is where paying attention to details matters, remember that they interviewed Ornato privately and the J6 committee had his testimony if they wanted to present it. Instead, they paraded out the attractive Cassidy Hutchinson who testified that she was told by a secret service agent that following his speech at the rally, Trump was so fired up and determined to go to the Capitol instead of the WH that he actually wrestled with the driver of the Beast to force him to go there. The haters swallowed all that up like Joey Chesnut at Nathan's on July 4th. Unfortunately for that narrative, as I recall, video emerged later that they weren't even driving the Beast that day. Rather, they were in the black, suv's. More importantly in this context, the secret service agent who supposedly told Cassidy her tall tale was none other than Mr. Ornato. The last thing the J6 wanted was for him to testify.
Now, after all kinds of evidence was destroyed, stuff like this comes out. That's the problem and that you still believe the contents of that report is incredible.
