Thanks for the acknowledgement at the top where we are. It's a very tense and sad time here in the D.C. area. I worked on Capitol Hill for 8 years and have spent the last 13 plus years in jobs that take me to the Capitol Complex on a weekly (if not daily) basis. I cannot overstate how incongruous yesterday was with the normal security procedures of the Capitol Police. Incitements to radicalism like this have been telegraphed for years (since Charlottesville) and it's just enraging how this all went down.
