Sergeant-at-Arms Says Some of Capitol Fence to Come Down Acting House of Representatives Sergeant-at-Arms Timothy Blodgett says parts of the razor-wire-topped fence erected around the U.S. Capitol complex following the Jan. 6 incursion will come down soon. Blodgett on March 15 said that parts of the fence that are manned by about 2,500 National Guard troops and backed by dozens of heavy military vehicles will be revised or taken down completely. The Guard contingent also will begin to return to their home bases in coming weeks. “Working with their federal, state and local intelligence partners, the U.S. Capitol Police (USCP) has informed the Sergeant at Arms (SAA) that ‘there does not exist a known, credible threat against Congress or the Capitol Complex that warrants the temporary security fencing,’” Blodgett told members of Congress, in a memo obtained by The Epoch Times.
