Who has that authority, and why didn't they tell whomever to blow it out their ass? Were these individuals going to pepper spray them, handcuff them, shoot them?

I don't understand how this could happen, members of Congress blocked entry into a federal building. They need to bring some muscle next time, and use it if necessary!
