NEW: Lt. Gen. HONORE's post-Jan. 6 Capitol security review is done.

He wants: "Unblinking" integrated cameras, a retractable fence, a citywide quick reaction force and increased background checks to prevent "insider threat risks."

More details:

politico.com/news/2021/03/0…
HONORE also recommends adding more than 800 Capitol Police units (to reduce the *720,000 overtime hours* in the last fiscal year) and setting up a citywide quick reaction force for emergencies.

politico.com/news/2021/03/0…
AND Honore wants the Capitol Police to grow its meager intelligence unit to be able to process the rising threats to lawmakers both in DC and in their districts.

NEWS from @joshgerstein: A former State Department aide has become the first Trump administration appointee arrested in connection with the Jan. 6 Capitol riots.

politico.com/news/2021/03/0…
WOW: @ktbenner gets the actual arrest affidavit for former State Dept aide Federico KLEIN. He was still employed there on Jan. 6, held a Top Secret clearance that was renewed in 2019 and is accused of multiple assaults on Capitol police. int.nyt.com/data/documentt…
AND: Most notably, Klein — who served in the military — is accused of egging on the crowd and calling for “fresh people” at the front to help push back on officers. That detail was previously cited by authorities as evidence of a coordinated assault.

NEW filing documents one of the most brutal Jan. 6 assaults on Capitol police. Prosecutors are asking to hold Clayton Ray Mullins, who allegedly joined an assault on officers as they attempted to retreive Rosanne Boyland's body, one of five who died.
An image documenting the assault was partially redacted because Boyland was visible in it.

"Boyland’s associate, Justin Winchell, was attempting tobring Boyland’s body forward to law enforcement when the assaults of Officers A.W., B.M., and C.M. began."
MULLINS was later identified by someone who has a "30-year-banking relationship" with him, and he was spotted on Feb, 4 surveillance footage at his bank.

NEW: Prosecutors are beginning to fill in the details of the Proud Boys assault on the Capitol, revealing details about their financing, planning and operations in a new court filing against leader Ethan Nordean.

The latest w/ @joshgerstein

politico.com/news/2021/03/0…
@joshgerstein According to prosecutors, NORDEAN was tapped as a de facto leaer of the group after Enrique Tarrio's arrest on Jan. 4.

Nordean helped scout out the Capitol for weakly defended entrances, prosecutors say.

politico.com/news/2021/03/0…
@joshgerstein Among other tactics Nordean helped orchestrate, per the filing: Dressing 'incognito' to avoid detection, spreading out at multiple Capitol entrances and recruiting"normies" — non Proud Boys — to join in the assault. politico.com/news/2021/03/0…
