Attorney General Merrick Garland has received harsh criticism for apparently not having indicted any top Trump associates for the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. But one national security expert argued on Sunday that we might not know if arrests have occurred.
fox news once branded itself as pro-police, pro-military, pro-law and order. but that s not believable anymore, if it ever was, because fox has done its part to make january 6th disappear. not only did we hardly ever cover the continuing daily fallout from the trump riots, they disparaged the people who do, they blast democrats and liz cheney and media outlets for caring. they re obsessed with january 6th. they re getting crushed by inflation. their vote elizabeth wagmiester are getting crushed by inflation but all they care about is january 6th. they want this distraction. they want to have this story out there. this january 6th fixation. the entire january 6th campaign has become one of revenge and defamation.
SHOW TRANSCRIPT
The fencing and the presence of the National Guard around the Capitol will be scaled back soon.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said it s because there is no known credible threat against Congress at the moment.
Pelosi said the recommendations were made by the acting House sergeant at arms and a Capitol security report.

Democrats buoyed by a wave of anti-Trump political activism are not only trying to wrest control of some legislatures from Republicans in the 2018 election, they re also striving to tighten their hold in states where they already have an edge, or where control is split, to pass legislation ranging from gun control, to taxation to health care. In Colorado and New York, Democrats hope to win one more seat in each state senate to gain control of both legislatures. (AP Photo/David Zalubowski, File)
