Far-Left MSM NBCreported yesterday:
Staffers from the office of the Architect of the Capitol on Saturday morning installed a plaque honoring the U.S. Capitol Police and other law enforcement agencies that protected the Capitol building during the Jan. 6, 2021, riot.
“On behalf of a grateful Congress, this plaque honors the extraordinary individuals who bravely protected and defended this symbol of democracy on January 6, 2021. Their heroism will never be forgotten,” the plaque reads.
Below the acknowledgement text, the plaque lists all the law enforcement agencies and other entities involved in the response to the attack. The U.S. Capitol Police Department and Washington’s Metropolitan Police Department are listed above and separate from the rest.
The installation comes two months after the Senateunanimously agreedto a resolution directing the Architect of the Capitol to install a plaque honoring officers who defended the Capitol on Jan. 6.
The Senate resolution was introduced in Januaryby Sens. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., and Thom Tillis, R-N.C., after Congresshad stalled on plans outlined in a 2022 lawto install a similar plaque by March 2023…
…Since the start of the second Trump administration, the president and his allies have sought to downplay the severity of the Jan. 6, 2021, attack by his supporters, which happened at the tail end of the president’s first administration as he sought to overturn the 2020 election results.
Shortly after he was sworn in last year, Trump pardonedroughly 1,500 criminal defendantswho were charged for their actions at the Capitol that day.
At least they mentioned that the FBI and Homeland Security were there.
Brandon Straka noted the obvious about this act of the GOP Senate which refuses to pass the SAVE AMERICA ACT but will pass this piece of garbage.
