'J6 Committee Threatened Me Into Silence', Says Trump's Defense Secretary

Hannity 3/22/24 -- Miller claims the members intimidated him, and warned they would repeatedly bring him in for 'hours' of additional testimony if he kept going on TV and defending the former president's actions.

At the time, Miller said, he did not have the 'resources to continue to battle' the committee and didn't want to face more depositions for speaking to media outlets about his experiences.

It was a Sean Hannity segment on June 6, 2022 featuring Miller and Trump national security official Kash Patel that seemed to 'hit a nerve,' according to the former DOD head.

'The two of us were on [the Fox News show] and the next day my lawyer got a call from the Jan. 6 staff director – I forgot exactly who it was – but basically saying, very legalistic: 'Well, if your client has additional information he wants to share, we'd be happy to have him re-interviewed,'' Miller recalled.

He continued: 'It was more that latent threat of: 'If you want to keep going on TV, we're gonna drag you in here again for additional hours of hearing testimony.' So that was the nature of that whole thing.'

'It was the latent threat of the government continuing to intrude into my life.'

Republican communications strategist Erica Knight told DailyMail.com: 'Knowing how other witnesses close to me were treated, it wouldn't surprise me if people in media were also threatened by the committee to stop discussing this issue.'

It's unclear if any other witnesses or individuals felt they were 'threatened' by the committee, but Miller said there was 'fear' instilled in him that any discussion of the events that day with others would cause him to be called in for another interview with the panel.

So instead, he kept to himself and didn't discuss his uneasy feelings about the panel with others – until now.

'I didn't talk about it with anybody else because of the fear or the concern,' Miller told DailyMail.com. 'I wasn't communicating with anybody, because I knew any interactions I had on it would result in me having to… acknowledge that I'd been in communications with other people. And then that just sort of opens up a whole can of worms with the investigators that I just didn't want to do.'

'It was much easier just to not be involved with anybody or talk to anybody about this stuff because it was going to cause conflict and difficulties with the investigating team,' he added.

'So I didn't talk to other people, quite simply.'
