@SecCardona@usedgov Let’s take all the US Dept of Education money and just return it to the states. There is literally nothing the states don’t do already
@SenSchumer Does that include any prok? Any stadiums, any transit projects that help specific regions, any money to states who already are running a surplus due to Trump's policy?
@alfranckmeyer @MSNBC So now about 1400. Then divide that by three shifts. So at most 500 on duty. 500 on duty to then stop a crowd, and also move 535 members of congress plus staff to safety. Not as hard as one would think.
@alfranckmeyer @MSNBC I disagree. First the capitol police have a very specific role. Second I tend to believe they are selected based on a very selective criteria. The capitol police is about 1900 per their website . Take away an easy 200 for admin jobs. 1700. Then take away off duty.
@VanJones68 I would love to hear one of you say hey, if these people had just gathered on the mall, no problem, good for them, hut they didn't and now they are doing wrong
