The National Guard has been brought in to heighten security throughout the U.S. Capitol as the House debates a second Trump impeachment and prepares for the presidential inauguration of Joe Biden on January 20. There are barricades set up protecting the Capitol, and anyone entering will be checked for badges, asked questions, and have to enter through a metal detector. According to House security, this is the first time troops have set up camp overnight in the U.S. Capitol since the Civil War in the 1860s.
