Blame Pelosi, not top Capitol cop: Devine
|
[NYPOST] Steven Sund, the popular US Capitol Police chief fired on live television by Nancy San Fran Nan Pelosi
 Congresswoman-for-Life from the San Francisco Bay Area, born into a family of professional politicians. On-again-off-again Speaker of the House. It's not her fault when they lose, but it's her accomplishment when they win. Noted for her heavily botoxed grimace and occasional senior... uhhh... moments...
less than 24 hours after January’s Capitol riot, is sorely missed by his troops in their hour of need.
Morale has plummeted and officers are resigning or contemplating early retirement in the aftermath, scapegoating and despicable politicization of the Capitol riot. Two have did away with himself.
A bad situation took a turn for worse last Friday when Capitol Police Officer Billy Evans was killed and another officer injured by an Islamist Louis Farrakhan follower who rammed a car into a police barricade outside the Capitol.
It was Sund who quietly went to visit the injured officer, Kevin Shaver, in hospital Saturday, and Sund to whom officers turned for advice and consolation after the lone-wolf attack. They keep asking if he can return to his job.
When the remains of Officer Brian Sicknick, who died in unexplained circumstances the day after the Jan. 6 riot, were lying in honor in the Capitol rotunda, it was Sund who slipped in before dawn to pay his respects before House Speaker Pelosi staged her self-serving spectacle.
Sund, a decorated, 25-year career veteran of counterterrorism at the Metropolitan Police Department in Washington, DC, where he was commander of the Special Operations Division, had been running the Capitol police for 18 months.
He had tried for two days to get permission for National Guard backup before the riot but was blocked by people doing the bidding of Pelosi.
Pelosi has never owned up to her role in the woeful undermanning of the Capitol police that day. Instead, she blamed Sund and her loyal House sergeant at arms, Paul Irving.
By scapegoating Sund, who had capably led his outnumbered troops that terrible day, and kept every member of Congress safe, she was blaming the very officers who fought valiantly for hours to defend the Capitol.
"I am calling for the resignation of the chief of the Capitol Police, Mr, Sund," Pelosi declared at a televised presser on Jan. 7. "He hasn’t even called us since this happened."
