House Sergeant at Arms William Walker announced on Wednesday that the remainder of the fencing around the Capitol will be removed starting as soon as Friday.

The fencing — which was put up shortly after the riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6, when attendees of a nearby pro-Trump rally attempted to disrupt the certification of the 2020 election results — will take three days to come down.

Walker cited the Capitol Police’s assessment showing a lower threat level than earlier this year, noting that it will “monitor intelligence information and the associated threat environment” moving forward.

Lower threat level??? That means any little thing comes up and the fence goes back up.

If the GOP ever control Congress again you can expect the Democrats will have a Real Deadly Assault on the Capitol

Lower threat level???

Yet the Capitol Police have found it necessary to open up field offices in California and Florida in response to increased threats.

So which is it?

The siege! The Siege!

It was an insurrection! It was worse than 9/11! It was the greatest threat to our Democracy since its founding!

The RATs failed to get the dictatorship they wanted. The Filibuster is still there. The anticipated Counter Revolution therefore did not happen and the fence is not needed. They have the Attorney General working to maintain Fraud Friendly voting so they must believe they are safe.

Too bad they don't put this much effort into protecting our borders.

The House Sergeant at Arms knows the true story of 1/6. His ass needs to put be in front of Congress along with Pelosi but the rule of law is dead.
