BIG EDIT !!!: As you can see below the report is from a FAUX NewZ affiliated source but has not been confirmed ANYWHERE on the internets so take with a grain of salt. Also, how did FAUX NewZ get this scoop if it is true ?! test

EDIT: Story picked up by Washington Examiner - https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/senate-sergeant-arms-during-capitol-riot-dies

Yeah, there's 10 too many cops related to J6 that has died for my comfort ... no CT but damn

'to request the assistance of the National Guard

Responding to the 2021 Capitol attack

On January 6, 2021, for more than an hour during the violent storming of the Capitol that resulted in physical and symbolic harm to the Congress, the Capitol, and the process of accepting and counting the votes of the Electoral College, Stenger and House Sergeant arms Paul Irving (members of the Capitol Review Board) repeatedly refused to request the assistance of the National Guard. He then resigned as the Senate sergeant-at-arms. The two other top Capitol security officials—House sergeant-at-arms Paul D. Irving and United States Capitol Police chief Steven Sund—also resigned the same day, amid bipartisan shock and outrage over security lapses that led to the mob's breach and occupation of the Capitol.

Captain of Marines, Secret Service Agent who rose through the ranks to Secret Service Leadership, Senior Security Aid to the US Senate who rose to become the Senate Sergeant at Arms. He was there in a leadership roll on a very fucked up day and that career will probably be remembered more for that than anything else. I understand why that is, but let’s let him and his family grieve in peace without the bullshit.
