It’s a strange thing, isn’t it, that Democrats are so against walls on the border for demonstrable and continuing problems, to protect the American people?

But one three hour riot that’s near them and they now want two billion in permanent fencing and military police surrounding them in the Capitol.

As we predicted, they don’t want the fencing to ever go away and they want a much bigger and permanent military police/National Guard complement. So what is it that they are anticipating or intending to do?

According to Bloomberg, Congressional leaders are now putting together a $2 billion dollar funding bill for that permanent retractable fencing around the Capitol, more officers for the Capitol Police, improved weaponry and emergency communications, as well as other “enhance[d] protections for lawmakers.”

CNN is reporting it as:

A permanent fence around the Capitol, hundreds of new security personnel — either the National Guard or a military police presence — and new authorities for the District of Columbia’s National Guard to be dispatched in emergency situations, one of the sources said. The plan under consideration also would expand the US Capitol Police force, potentially by hiring hundreds more officers, and make changes to the USCP’s board.
