Shitbirds need to be plucked and roasted.

Pelosi refused security and disappeared.

Want to know why? These sociopaths actually believed President Trump would used the Insurrection Act to seize control of government, so they didn't want too many federal police or troops nearby:

The legal memo, “Potential Paths of Federal Incursion Into District Law Enforcement,” discussed a local law, the District of Columbia Home Rule Act, that would allow Trump to unilaterally take control of the MPD. The document, the existence of which has not previously been reported, also contemplated the possibility of the White House using the Insurrection Act to deploy the National Guard and federal law enforcement agencies such as the US Marshals Service and the Bureau of Prisons to effectively take control of the city.

“We had every reason to suspect there would be some sort of trouble,” said Phil Mendelson, chair of the city council. But he added that “our concern was that it would be fomented by the president who would say: ‘Look, there’s rioting and chaos — we need to take over the police department and bring in the National Guard.’”

Too late, bring on the witnesses and let’s put people under oath instead of creating sound bites for the Enemy of the People to continue brainwashing low IQ liberals

The 3 ringleaders of the Capitol riots. They created it, just like they do where ever they go!
