The Pentagon is investigating its response to the deadly Capitol riot
Meghann Myers
 

Engulfed by a cacophony of accusations and blame-assigning over the deadly Jan. 6 security situation at the Capitol building and the response to the mob who breached it, the Defense Department is examining its own role in offering National Guard support to federal law enforcement.

Along with the Justice, Interior and Homeland Security departments, DoD has opened an internal review of its role in preparing for the Jan. 6 protest-turned-insurrection, and how it responded in the immediate aftermath.

The goal is “to determine whether there are additional actions required by the DoD to effectively prepare for and respond to security activities at the U.S. Capitol campus,” according to a memo signed Friday by DoD’s deputy inspector general for administrative investigations.

I'm just guessing, of course, but I think what they will find is the Guard could have been effective but there weren't enough women available to lead the operation.  Either that or all the Guard will have to take classes to see how global warming made them ineffective.  Or even the Pentagon was too busy dealing with Russia and China and spent not enough time on demonstrations in the District of Corruption. :whistle:
