“Acting Capitol Police Chief Yolanda Pittmann has revealed in striking detail that the capitol police provided plenty of advance warning of the January 6th attack in a letter that brutally exposes the security failures.

“By January 4th, the Department knew that the January 6th event would not be like any of the previous protests held in 2020. We knew that militia groups and white supremacists organizations would be attending. We also knew that some of these participants were intending to bring firearms and other weapons to the event. We knew that there was a strong potential for violence and that Congress was the target.”

The statement lays out in concrete detail that the imminent threat to the capitol building was severe. Yet the Congress, despite repeated warnings, failed to act to ensure that the capitol police and the national guard would be adequately empowered with resources to provide vigorous security and a clear mandate to ensure that the building would not be breached.

Was this information presented in the Senate proceedings this week?

I didn’t listen to the hearings. But I posted a link to the letter up thread from the Capital Police and Sargent at Arms. The Capital Police Board refused to declare an emergency and refused to allow a request for National Guard on Jan. 4 IIRC.

Also after the perimeter was breached, once again Capital Police asked for National Guard - it took an hour before approval was given.

I didn’t watch every minute of it, but I don’t think so.

I have not heard of any firearms or gunfire - except the officer that fired on that woman, Ashley...

***Yet the Congress, despite repeated warnings, failed to act***

The Congress no longer 'acts'; POTUS does that with constant output of EOs. The Congress now spends its time attacking its perceived enemies and thinking up endless lies for their mockingbird media to justify.

We knew that militia groups and white supremacists organizations would be attending.

Who are these imaginary boogie men?
