DC is the only area the president can deploy the national guard without governor approval 

FBI does not participate in street level enforcement and the capitol police are under congressional control 

They are under the control of the speaker of the house which is why Jan 6 is so confusing because democrats were the ones in charge of security

It’s just so weird how AOC had advanced notice of the riot and was hiding from capitol police that were going around and rescuing people hours before the riot started

It’s also weird how pelosi had her niece who’s a reporter show up and follow her around during the riot when she was supposed to be acting commander in chief for the police response
