so the Capitol Police never did a comprehensive check that all Members were accounted for

[TomDaisy]

and safe after the violence (per Katie Porter statement)

and they have yet to contact Speaker Pelosi........


WHAT. THE. FUCK.

there are no words for this level of malicious incompetence

[Blue Owl]

1. Once again, we have another inept "DeJoy" stooge doing tRump's dirty work...

[BusyBeingBest]

2. It could be argued that the policeman who shot the terrorist

was the only one who really did his job in acting to stop an act of terror against Congress. Just sayin'.

[lagomorph777]

3. Maybe some of them have melted away with the rioters.

[soothsayer]

4. Ok how do they not have drills about this?

Tabletop exercises?

We did this kind of stuff a few times a year to stay sharp and think through scenarios. Reps from all departments.

They’re pretty lax over there, seems like.

[TomDaisy]

6. this seems like the most basic of tasks, like a grade school field trip FFS

[soothsayer]

8. And it's not as though they didn't have "scary" BLM protests to prepare for

Or previous “scary” people-of-color marches. Coulda pulled those playbooks.

Do they not have playbooks??

[TomDaisy]

5. the mob could have dragged Members right out into a waiting van and

Capitol Police would not have known or done anything

and how long until someone would have figured out where they were, if ever, until the mob put their hostage on air on social media

[StarfishSaver]

11. If these people weren't so disorganized and inept, this could have been a national tragedy

[NRaleighLiberal]

7. I think Joe Biden should assume that ANYONE trump placed in any position

is there for being a loyalist, and has no ability for or interest in doing their job.

Joe needs to take out the big broom and sweep all of the garbage into the bin.

[FSogol]

9. When has any event happened where law enforcement didn't hold a press conference to discuss and

inform?

The Capitol Police upper management took yesterday off.
