(Newser) – Security officials have stepped up their preparation for the rally planned for Saturday in support of the rioters who attacked the Capitol on Jan.6. The temporary fencing around the building that was taken down over the summer will be back up by then, Capitol Police Chief Tom Manger said Monday, after the police board gave its approval. Provided „everything goes well,“ he said, the fencing will come down again quickly, CNN reports. And congressional leaders have been briefed. It’s part of security officials‘ effort to be better prepared than they were for the insurrection in January, per the AP.
