The Capitol Police, which has been in the spotlight since the Capitol Riot, has over 2,000 sworn officers. Pelosi’s private police force is the 19th largest police force in America.
It’s already larger than the police forces of Atlanta, Baltimore, Denver, and Milwaukee.
While Democrats advocated defunding the police, their private police force budget shot up from $375 million in 2016 to $460 million in 2020. And now it’s demanding even more money.
Speaker Pelosi claimed, “It's going to take more money to protect the Capitol in a way that enables people to come here."

To allow what people to come here? Red chinese?
better question...who will go there?
The trick is to build the fences and walls high enough, and provide enough guards, that the people inside can't get out.
Why allow people to go there? My understanding of the “new normal” is that via the wonder of ‘Zoom’ the congresscritters can do all of their work from their own basements without the messy traveling and germ spreading.
