On March 4, 2025, a report emerged detailing a significant security incident at the U. S. Capitol. A House staffer managed to enter a building leading to the Capitol while carrying a firearm. This occurred shortly before President Trump’s speech to Congress.
• Incident Report: Tarik Johnson, a former U. S. Capitol Police officer, revealed that the staffer was caught and arrested after bringing a gun onto Capitol grounds. The staffer reportedly questioned the issue, suggesting a lack of prior warnings about security protocols.
• Previous Warnings Ignored: Johnson emphasized that federal agencies had warned about potential disturbances at the Capitol days before the January 6 riots, yet Speaker Pelosi did not call for National Guard support, leaving the Capitol vulnerable.
• Calls for Transparency: Johnson called out U. S. Capitol Police Chief J. Thomas Manger, demanding public disclosure of facts surrounding the recent breach and questioning the police’s effectiveness in protecting Trump and the Capitol.
• Historical Context: This incident marks the fourth time a gun has entered a building under US Capitol Police protection since Trump’s presidency began. Johnson expressed concerns over Officer safety during Trump's appearances, noting that such lapses heighten risks.
The security lapses highlighted by Tarik Johnson raise serious concerns about the effectiveness of the U. S. Capitol Police in protecting officials, particularly during events attended by high-profile figures like Trump. Johnson promises to continue providing updates on the situation.
