Bailey kept engaging with his pistol against the shooter's AR-15, even after being shot, and then afterward checked on some of the congressmen. One congressman said that if they had not been there, the Democrat militia shooter (my term) could have just walked up and killed every one of them point blank. These officers prevented the mass assassination of the Republican House Caucus.
I believe these two saved more than these Congressmens’ lives. I credit them with saving our nation. If that assassin had completed what he set out to do, we’d be looking at a very different republic this morning.
