it is the strength of the police department, your partners out there, like the metropolitan police department, they should have been the primary people, and frankly we should have held the midnight crew on the morning of the 6th. we could have asked the afternoon crew to come in early. and the midnight crew to come in early. you would have had three to four to 500 additional people to help do what you wanted to do, let alone the training and equipment that wasn't done properly, all that needs to be improved, i am confident that the sergeant of arms will do that, and one other important thing out of this is the recommendation to find a new chief. and you know there's a process ongoing right now. my understanding is there will be interviews this week, there's good candidates who have applied from within the department, very good candidates outside the department and i think improvements will continue to develop. >> and so you don't have confidence in the current acting chief? >> no, that's not true. i think there's so many things going on right now with all these different investigations in wan

metropolitan police officer who fought on january 6th to defend the capitol and as a result, i sufferedttack after having been tased numerous times at the base of my skull, as well as being severely beaten. at that point the congressman turned away from me. he turned out a cell phone. it looked like he was attempting to pull up like an audio recording app on his phone. and again, never acknowledged me at any point. as soon as the elevator doors opened, he ran as quickly as he could like a coward. >> like a coward. didn't shake your hand. >> absolutely not. >> what do you think of that? >> you know, obviously, like i took particular interaction very personally. but i also took it as a representation of andrew clyde giving the middle finger to myself and every other member of the metropolitan police department and u.s. capitol police that responded that day. >> we reached out to clyde's office for comment. we haven't heard back. you said he seemed to be fumbling with his phone trying record you? >> that's right. after i explained who i was and what had happened to me on january 6, neither

you're part of the metropolitan police department which is the d.c. ut the capitol police's main intelligence unit we learned was aware of the potential for violence in the days and weeks ahead of january 6th. not everyone was aware in terms of capitol police officers. were you aware as an mpd officer? did you have an inkling or were you told that there might be violence that day? >> yeah. i mean, as an mpd officer i was aware of the fact there was some significance behind january 6th. again, like i work in, you know, primarily a narcotics accept trick unit within the department, but i knew that our leave had been restricted for that entire week and also days off had been cancelled. what we refer to as like an all hands on deck event for january 6th, so that told me that, you know, someone in the department knew that there was some significant and potential for violence on january 6th. >> when you see the rebroadcast of the rally that day, where then president trump said what he said and where rudy giuliani talked about trial by combat, when you see cl
