House and Senate Democratic leaders were not involved in a decision to move National Guard troops into a parking garage. Instead, the move happened as a result of “a breakdown in communication” between the Guard and the Capitol Police, those familiar with the matter told the Washington Examiner.
“The guardsmen were moved over to the garage by a Capitol Police officer, and it didn’t go through the chain of command for either the Capitol Police or the National Guard,” a source familiar with the matter told the Washington Examiner.
