people call it "security theater," which shows that one group hasn't really learned its Jan 6 lessons.

I couldn't find any more recent videos or photos of new Capitol security than from a month ago. The grounds have 'unscalable' 7 foot fencing topped by razor wire.

As long as the Big Lie exists, this security should exist and not leave at the end of March, either. imo
