Original Note:
The Mayor of DC does not have the power to call up the National Guard. The President, as Commander in Chief, has authority over the Guard. On January 6th it would have been Donald Trump’s choice not to activate. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/District_of_Columbia_National_Guard#:~:text=The%20president%20of%20the%20United%20States%20is%20the%20commander%2Din,District%20of%20Columbia%20National%20Guard.
