Democrat Panel Recommends Permanent Military “Quick Reaction Force” For Capitol
March 10th, 2021Via: Summit News:
A Democrat appointed ‘task force’ has issued a report recommending a permanent military security force be stationed around Capitol Hill.
The task force, headed up by Army Lt. Gen. (Ret.) Russel L. Honoré, reported back to Nancy Pelosi, suggesting that a “quick reaction force” be formed and put on standby in addition to Capitol police.
The report notes that DC is “a high-value target for foreign terrorists or domestic extremists, yet it has no dedicated QRF for response to crises.”
It adds, “The USCP relies on augmentation from other civilian law enforcement agencies for emergency support, but we recommend establishment of a robust, dedicated QRF, not only for the USCP, but to serve the nation’s capital writ large.”
