Per the capitol police website they have 2,600 officers and a budget of $460 million. It honestly just ... didn&amp;#x27;t look like they were trying very hard. They managed to arrest what, 14 people? Compare that to the BLM protests on the west coast where unmarked vans of feds were literally rolling up and black bagging people off the street.&lt;p&gt;USCP is charged with protecting Congress, and I think members of congress should be thinking hard about whether the police were complicit in what happened today.&lt;p&gt;[1] &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.uscp.gov&amp;#x2F;media-center&amp;#x2F;uscp-fast-facts&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.uscp.gov&amp;#x2F;media-center&amp;#x2F;uscp-fast-facts&lt;/a&gt;</text><parent_chain><item><author>ReaganFJones</author><text>I&amp;#x27;m not sure if it could be largely characterized as security theater.
