I think Graham might have a valid point here.

Given how Trump, aided by Graham and other Republicans, had for days been encouraging angry followers to come to Washington to "stop the steal,"

Pelosi should have taken direct control of Capital security on Jan. 5 and called on the president to bring in the Guard before his rally, so it would be on hand in case his followers went too far after his rousing speech to stop Pence from validating the votes.


Er wait, let me re think that.

Maybe Capitol security is more difficult than expected if the Commander-in-chief sees that security as compromising his own designs.
