Senior Dem aide tells me this: Still zero guidance or info from capitol police or sgt at arms. Nothing on current security of complex, new or current measures being taken, member protection or guidance/procedures for coming days for staff who be in the building.

1. Feeling like a cover up now.

Getting ducks in a row to “fix” mistakes and incompetence.

7. Feeling like a "Cover Your Ass" situation, at this point.

No surprise, there. The images of those sedition-minded punks swarming through the Capitol speak for themselves. I hope some law enforcement higher-ups lose their jobs over this, and damned soon.

2. What level of unacceptable is this?!!!

UNACCEPTABLE!

[soothsayer]

3. I'd say they're in a heap of hot water

Underlings will take the fall, unfairly

[Wicked Blue]

4. Whose side are they ON?

The side of the Constitution?

Or the side of the fascist insurrection?

That is the essential question.

5. Cover up on an inside job...

11. Some information on Capitol Police and Capitol Police Board.

The Capitol Police Board is the body that governs the United States Capitol Police. It consists of three voting members:
The Sergeant at Arms of the United States House of Representatives Paul Irving appointed by John Boehner.
The Sergeant at Arms of the United States Senate Paul Stenger appointed by Mitch McConnell.
The Architect of the Capitol Brett Blanton appointed by Donald Trump
