Following the mysterious, rumor-plagued attack on Paul Pelosi, the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, the U.S. Capitol Police (USCP) are re-evaluating their security protocols. According to multiple sources, the Capitol Police had access to cameras at the Pelosi residence, but they were not being monitored until local police were already at the scene.
On Wednesday, the Capitol Police released a statement admitting that those at the Command Center were not monitoring the security camera feed for the Pelosi residence at the time of the attack. The USCP reported that they have access to about 1,800 cameras, including those “used to actively monitor the speaker’s San Francisco residence around the clock when she is there.”

“While the Speaker was with her security detail in Washington, D.C., the San Francisco cameras were not actively monitored as they are when the speaker is at the residence. The Command Center personnel noticed the police activity on the screen and used the feeds to monitor the response and assist investigators,” the department said.
The statement also mentioned that they would be conducting an “internal security review” to gather “input and questions from… congressional stakeholders.” The department added that they will “fast-track the work [they] have already been doing to enhance the protection of members outside of Washington, D.C., while also providing new protective options that will address concerns following Friday’s targeted attack.”
On Tuesday, Capitol Police Chief Tom Manger announced that the department will review adding security measures for members of Congress. “The USCP has engaged in a review of Friday’s incident,” said Manger. “We believe today’s political climate calls for more resources to provide additional layers of physical security for members of Congress. This plan would include an emphasis on adding redundancies to the measures that are already in place for congressional leadership. Hopefully you can understand that we cannot disclose the details about these improvements because our country cannot afford to make it easier for any potential bad actors.”
What’s weird is that it seems like none of the security camera footage was recorded and stored anywhere, not even for a brief period of time. You would think that such a highly-funded department that monitors such high-up individuals in the U.S. government would have security equipment with the ability to record.
Following the attack, Mr. Pelosi is recovering in a hospital in San Francisco after undergoing surgery for his fractured skull and other injuries.
This is the modern age—the Capitol Police could watch SF cameras while in DC.
Another shocker is that the cameras could record the data!
;-)
Reportedly it was. The CP weren't watching the feed at the time, is the story being told.
And, of course, to establish residency in the district she represents
You just said it.
He was entertaining guests.
This will have to wait, The Capital Police are busy cutting campaign ads for Dem candidates.
LAUGH BREAK........the tax paid San Francisco-based Capitol Police did not actively monitor cameras as they do when the Speaker is at the residence........but the tax paid Command Center personnel “noticed” police activity on the screen and used the feeds to monitor the response and assist investigators,” the department said............
In the next place, as each representative will be chosen by a greater number of citizens in the large than in the small republic, it will be more difficult for unworthy candidates to practice with success the vicious arts by which elections are too often carried; and the suffrages of the people being more free, will be more likely to centre in men who possess the most attractive merit and the most diffusive and established characters.
Don’t think they are trying to protect her political career.
Hell Paul Pelosi coming out as gay would actually benefit her most likely.
Dems just trying to spin this attack as MAGA assault on our democracy. They will do or saying anything to remain in power.
SOOOOOO—We are using tax money to pay people to NOT BE WORKING when Nanzi is not there ????
Agreed—this is normal for the Deep State.
Step 1: Create a narrative.
Step 2: Cover up any data that contradicts the narrative.
Two things to note:
1) I have a cheap home security camera system and I can store over 30 days of video on 8 cameras on my 1TB drive...so the whole “lost the video” crap is just that...CRAP!
and
2) They keep saying, “no one was actively watching the cameras” because Nazi Pelosi wasn’t home...well, there were bound to be agents watching SOME CAMERAS in the area, and my cheap system will flash a red outline around the screen feed and pop-up full screen when it catches movement in a camera...are we to believe the US Government cameras don’t have these basic CCTV security measures?!?
There was no break-in! David Depape was invited in, for whatever reason, and then got into an “altercation” with Paul Pelosi - PERIOD!
All other noise about this incident is complete and utter BS!
Capitol Police are saying they don't monitor the video unless Nancy is home. Maybe PP doesn't want the cameras on when Nancy is not home. I think they also have private security. Not sure how they divide responsibilities with CP.
That might depend on what the definition of ‘entertaining’ is. ;-)
Honest, boss. There wasn’t any toilet paper, and the damned VHS reel unraveled, so I made good use of it. *wink*
AMAZING, isn’t it??
They “lost” this video, but they can always “find” ballots!
There’s nothing to see here folks.
Priorities !
TOTAL Bullshit, of course, and TOTALLY EXPECTED
So the residence of the Speaker of the House has security cameras whose data aren’t stored anywhere, a level of security enjoyed by every 7/11 store in the far reaches of Flyover Country in 1975? Sure thing. And I’m Little Bo Peep.
The last illegal alien democraps wanted to deport was Elian Gonzalez, and now this guy?
