You have an insurrection backed by one of your main parties. Its important that your institutions are protected from traitors.
The TRAITORS were the ones INSIDE the building BEFORE the attack started.
That building belongs to the American PEOPLE, not the Politicians. why that building is not open to the public at all times thst either chamber is in session makes no sense to me. They are OUR EMPLOYEES, not the other way around.
it is far better for the politicians to fear the People than the other way around.
