The Sergeant at Arms of the House, under the direction of the speaker, is responsible for security, along with the U.S. Capitol Police. After the storming of the building, the chief of the Capitol Police resigned under pressure, according to
The New York Times, and the sergeants-at-arms of the Senate and House resigned from their posts.
Fox News also reported that Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., the House Administration Committee chair plans to “look into” the security breach — Lofgren is
sure to hold Pelosi’s feet to the fire if warranted. Right?
“The breach today at the U.S. Capitol raises grave security concerns,” Lofgren said in a statement after the riot. “I intend to have the Committee on House Administration work with the bipartisan House and Senate leadership to address these concerns and review the response in coming days.”
One thing seems certain, authorities should have known ahead of time that there may be a threat.
