McConnell says 'overdone' Capitol security reminds him of war-torn Afghanistan
Fox News
Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell said the fortified security at the Capitol two months after the Jan. 6 riot is "overdone," and he compared the militarization in Washington, D.C., to Afghanistan.
McConnell last visited war-weary Afghanistan in October 2015. The enhanced security has been a mainstay at the Capitol in the aftermath of the Jan. 6 riot, when pro-President Trump supporters attacked the complex and sought to stop Congress from certifying President Biden's Electoral College win.More Related News
