Here's a very simple question: why did a "Police Force" of 2,200 cops and an almost unlimited budget, and offers of significantly more manpower from other federal agencies, including an offer of National Guardsmen by the Pentagon, NOT SECURE THE CAPITOL from a large crowd of "MOSTLY PEACEFUL PROTESTERS"; and why wasn't order more quickly restored, even after resorting to deadly physical force against the "MOSTLY PEACEFUL PROTESTERS" ???

INTENET CHATTER before the events of January 6, 2021 indicated that at least some people were PLANING TO STORM the Capitol during the time of the Joint Session to certify Joe Biden as President Elect

A relatively reliable timeline indicates that a variety of actors were active near, around and possibly inside the Capitol Hill Congressional complex while President Trump was speaking to his supporters near the White House  ---   and that an actual breach of Capitol security had occurred prior to the start of the Joint Session of Congress

The initial penetration into the Capitol Building required that the "MOSTLY PEACEFUL PROTESTERS" overcome line  ---  after line  ---   after line of Capitol Hill Police officers, many largely fitted out in SWAT gear

The "MOSTLY PEACEFUL PROTESTERS" succeeded in reaching secure areas throughout the length, width and depth of the Capitol Building, including some of the tunnels below and up to the roof above 

 ---  Thus far reported, and confirmed by video, the "MOSTLY PEACEFUL PROTESTERS" actually conducted their own tours unescorted throughout many areas of the Capitol Building and they conducted videoed interviews from inside the Capitol  ---   AND FOR A TIME  ---  the  "MOSTLY PEACEFUL PROTESTERS" controlled most of the access areas to both the House and Senate Chambers inside the Capitol Building;  several even entered and controlled the Senate Chamber and gallery; they entered and controlled the Offices of the Speaker of the House;  and they flamboyantly carried off the podium of the Speaker of the House.....

Another simple, but very important, question is how was all of this done without "significant inside help" of somebody inside the Capitol security apparatus and/or very familiar with the avenues into and workings of the Capitol Building ?????

The post event reports indicated that most of the "MOSTLY PEACEFUL PROTESTERS" that were inside the Capitol were let go without charges and without their names' being taken  ---  and the FBI has already complained that their investigations have been hampered by the initial actions of the Capitol Hill Police.
