Investigation of U.S. Capitol Police Following Allegations of Spying On Members of Congress

The Brownshirts are everywhere.

The inspector general for the U.S. Capitol Police (USCP) has opened a formal investigation into whether the law enforcement agency tasked with securing the Capitol has been inappropriately surveilling elected members of Congress, their staff, and visitors to their offices, The Federalist has learned. The opening of the investigation follows news reports and accusations from lawmakers that USCP has overstepped its bounds as it tries to recover from the January 6 riots that tarnished both the Capitol and the reputation of the law enforcement agency that was supposed to keep it safe.

USCP Chief J. Thomas Manger confirmed the opening of the inspector general investigation in his response to congressional inquiries about USCP police tactics, reported in a January 24 article published by Politico, including surveilling and compiling intelligence dossiers on members of Congress, their staff, and visitors.

“While I am confident in our methods, I am asking the USCP Office of the Inspector General to review the USCP’s programs related to these security assessments to assure both this Committee, the Congress as a whole, and the public that these processes are legal, necessary, and appropriate,” Manger wrote to seven Republican lawmakers.

  1. On the other hand…who else is left to investigate crimes committed by congress members? The FBI?!? Hahaha. My guess is some congressman got caught by the capitol police with his pants down, and now wants them defunded.

  2. …hey, if anyone would like to hold them responsible for the open political murders of at least two American citizens and entrapping many more so they could violate their Constitutional rights, that’d be great too, just sayin’…

    Imran Awan was unavailable for comment. Because he was allowed to flee to Pakistan by the deep state.

    I wonder how many field offices around the country the Capitol Police have now. If the GOP takes Congress they need to shut that shit right down, but I have little hope that they will.

  4. The Dementiacrats are not going to change their nefarious, treasonous ways until long after the 2022 Midterm Elections, and that’s dependent upon the Republicans exposing everything that’s been happening since the Osmidgen-Obiden years. Want to bet that we will hear “that it’s time to move on” and “we need to deal with all the problems facing America right now.” These are the same gutless Republicans who accepted Joey Obiden Bama and the Kalamitous Jamindian as being duly elected and allowed to violate the Constitution from the very first day they were Installed.
