@nancysmiedy6514 to the contrary.
This question was brought up immediately following the 6th.
And never answered.
It's a legitimate question. That needs an answer.
Your dismissal of it, only goes to show your gullibility of the left.
If you watched initial hearings with capitol police and Sgt at Arms.
You would be asking the same question.
I did watch them live. And have been asking ever since.
Still no answers. ( except a lot of "I don't recalls" by Sgt at Arms)
Because it would reflect poorly at best on Pelosi.
And if you believe the media, that Pelosi was far removed, well you might want to do a little fact checking. Because she's not.
Sounds like your a CNN, MSNBC fan.
Try skipping MSM. And go back and look at entire hearings. Instead of highly edited versions, by bias media. Fox included.
The fact is, security was intentionally left grossly understaffed that day.
Additional security was requested multiple times by capitol police days before. But denied.
Which was far from normal procedure.
Only 3 bodies that could make that call. Pelosi or one of her appointees including Sgt at Arms.
It's as simple as that.
She is the top dog for capitol security and it's surrounding grounds . And is ultimately responsible in some fashion of how her appointees, that answer directly to her, act.
Who do you think ordered the barricades and fencing afterwards?
And signed off on it?
MSM can't be trusted for actual news.
Whether it be this or much else.
Like the "oppressive voting laws" in Texas or Georgia.
If you actually read the laws proposed and or passed.
You would realize. Biden and Harris as well as others are telling bold faced lies.
Like the no food or water falsehood.
That keeps getting repeated and aired.
If they bothered to read it. It was an addendum to the already existing electioneering laws that exist in almost every state.
Which prevents candidates, or parties, from campaigning ,handing out gifts within so many feet of the polling station.
Other than that they could set up bbqs at the front door.
It does not stop poll workers, or a friend from getting someone in line,water or snack.
Skip the media, read the laws. Then decide. As both governors suggested.
Both states are far less restrictive and offer much greater opportunities to vote than Biden's home state of Delaware or over a dozen more blue states.
Bottom line was this committeewas originally formed to find what went wrong and how to prevent it from happening again.
But default has to include capitol security which Pelosi heads.
That simple.
Had support been granted as requested multiple times. And was standard previous procedure.
The breach almost certainly never would have taken place.
I do not condone those who breached. And would not want to be in their shoes. For every government agency dealing with law enforcement and national security plus DOJ are going after them and their affiliations.
So I don't know what more this committee will find out ,they wont.
Except turning it into another hunt for the "Orange Man ".
Which frankly most people are getting sick of Pelosi' s obsession with beating a dead horse. That's costing taxpayers 100's of millions of dollars.

@ianinthewest I hope you're joking and just not that naive.
Pelosi, chose committee configuration, who was allowed on the committee, actually making an unprecedented move in removing/replacing Republican representatives.
All to control it's direction away from her.
As far as Cheney goes.
You mean the representative that doesn't have a score to settle.
For being removed as Republican Chair? Seriously?
Pelosi has been manipulating this committee since its conception.
Her original plan was to have fewer Republicans with no subpoena powers.
If this investigation is to be fair, thorough and complete as stated.
And it's mission is to prevent this from ever occurring again.
It has to include, the intentional, abnormal lack in security that day.
If you watched initial hearings with capitol police and Sgt at Arms back in Jan or Feb.
You would know, capitol police requested additional support multiple times days before. Yet were ultimately denied.
Only 3 bodies could have made that call.
Pelosi or one of her appointees including Sgt at Arms. All that answer directly to her.
She is top dog, head cheese, king of the hill. When it comes to capitol security and it's surrounding grounds.
Senate takes care of Senate floor, gallery and entrance. Rest is the Speakers.
So by default, if nothing else her dept. Including herself have to a subject of the investigation.
Which to any sane person, would mean, she should recuse herself from any aspect of these proceedings. Including the make up of who and how they may proceed.
Stop watching CNN,MSNBC,FOX,CBS, MSM in general for your information.
Watch previous hearings in their entirety. Do some research, that doesn't include bias .
Which can be difficult at this point.
Be informed.
I do not condone what happened.
I would not want to be one of those people who broke the law.
For every government agency dealing with law enforcement and national security and DOJ. Are after them and their affiliations.
So what can this committee find out on that front. That they can't?
Mark my words.
The results will minimize if not completely ignore . The intentional lack of security aspect.
Which would have with almost utmost certainty, prevented the actual breach.
But will turn into another one of Pelosi's psychotic obsessions to "Hunt the Orange Man ".
Which frankly after almost 6yrs and 100's of millions of dollars.
People are getting sick of her beating a dead horse. And running an autocratic House.
