OH i see, another clown.

I asked a simple question; answer: the Sergeant at Arms is in charge of capitol hill security, and he reports to Nancy Pelosi. Go away.

Go away Troll!

“Pelosi, Schumer and Bowser had no authority to call up the DC National Guard. As a federal jurisdiction, DC is the only government that does not have a governmental executive that can activate the Guard; only the President has the authority to call up the DC National Guard. In other states–and even US territories–the governor controls when the Guard gets called up, but DC has no governor–only a mayor–whose powers are limited by Congress, and those powers do not include commanding the National Guard unit from the District.

(A curious quirk of DC organizational law prevents the DC Mayor from calling up the DC National Guard, but it doesn't prevent the Mayor from asking for assistance from other states' Guard units by asking their governors to activate them, hence Bowser requesting aid from Virginia and Maryland on January 6th.)

National Guard deployment is the responsibility and was finally took up by Trump only after his daughter Ivanka Trump begged him a second time to intervene.”
