Pelosi: Officers who protected Capitol will get Congressional Gold Medal
By Mike Lillis and Cristina Marcos - 02/11/21 11:29 AM EST

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) announced Thursday that Democrats will soon grant the Congressional Gold Medal to the officers on duty guarding the Capitol when it was attacked on Jan. 6.

In a Dear Colleague letter, Pelosi praised those officers — members of the Capitol Police, the D.C. Metro Police and others — as heroes deserving Congress's highest civilian honor.

"That day, those men and women risked and gave their lives to save ours, becoming martyrs for our democracy," she wrote.

"The outstanding heroism and patriotism of our heroes and demand our deepest appreciation. ... We must never forget the sacrifice of Officer Brian Sicknick, Officer Howard Liebengood, MDP Officer Jeffrey Smith and the more than 50 USCP who sustained serious injuries, or the courage of the heroes such as Officer Eugene Goodman."

Pelosi is asking those Democrats interested in endorsing the legislation to sign on. She did not reveal a timeline for acting on the measure.

Good chance.  They can't keep his name secret forever.

Apples and oranges.  One's a LEO who shot a lady witnessed by dozens.

The other?  Allegedly by a hit man by the Clinton Crime Syndicate, unwitnessed, and staged as a suicide.

I'm looking forward to the Netflix mini series. 15 episodes of the Great Capitol Hill Assault.

That'll be aired after the theatrical depiction, starring Robert De Niro as the grizzled but fatherly head of security.
