It is up the the Speaker of the House to control the security of the capitol. He has no authority over the Capitol Police or the National Guard and neither does the Mayor of DC. He is only CIC of US Military.

I think President does have control of National Guard...However, I am not certain how involved he was in deciding to dispatch troops on January 6...

You may be right about that but at least some of the states are trying to do something. We’ll see how far it goes.
