The federal bureaucracy came to a hearing room on Capitol Hill to explain itself. It failed.
On Wednesday afternoon, a quartet of witnesses gave testimony before a joint committee in the Senate about the security failures at the U.S. Capitol building on Jan. 6. These men and women, with their sober presence and affinity for acronyms, perfectly personified the blurry, confusing, often impenetrable - occasionally well-intentioned - officialdom in which they work.
