!! Per US House Republicans, the acting Capitol Police chief has declined to appear at tomorrow's House Oversight Committee hearing investigating the Jan 6 Insurrection

Capitol Police have not responded to my questions about this today
Per Oversight committee Republicans, it was the Republican members of committee who invited chief to testify. And were rejected

Oversight Dems & Capitol police have not answered my multiple requests for info about this today

FBI director Chris Wray *will* appear
Per Oversight Committee GOP:

"Given last week’s bipartisan Senate report outlining her performance, her testimony is essential to understanding the intelligence breakdown leading up to the attack and to help prevent a similar attack from happening in the future."

Pennsylvania Parole Board had lodged a detainer against Samsel. Per court "the defendant would remain incarcerated pursuant to the Pennsylvania detainer until at least April 24, 2022." (which allows time to dispose of Jan 6 case)

But look at what judge said (more thread) ==>
