Meghan McCain slammed for suggesting barbed wire fences were put up around Congress because of impeachment

ABC
February 16, 2021BankMeghan McCain is under fire for suggesting barbed wire fences were installed around the Capitol building to protect Congress during the impeachment of Donald Trump.
The protections, including 25,000 National Guard troops and "miles of 12-foot high fencing," were installed in direct response to former President Trump's MAGA supporters attacking the Capitol on January 6, after he incited an insurrection, ahead of the January 20 inauguration.
Now that impeachment is done can DC stop having barbed wire fences and humvees around the capitol like this is a military base in Baghdad?— Meghan McCain (@Meghan McCain) 1613352706
