House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said the chamber will likely allocate more money for members of Congress to invest in additional security to protect them from the likes of violent rioters who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6 -- but also from the "enemy" within the House.

"We will probably need a supplemental [budget] for more security for members when the enemy is within the House of Representatives -- a threat that members are concerned about in addition to what is happening outside," Pelosi said during her weekly news conference Thursday at the Capitol.

When asked for clarification on what she means about the enemy within, Pelosi specifically called out fellow members of Congress.

"It means we have members of Congress who want to bring guns on the floor and have threatened violence on other members of Congress," Pelosi said.

The letter obtained by Fox News asks House leadership for flexibility in using their office funds to hire local law enforcement to protect them while in their district and to purchase "security items" to keep them safe at home. They also want the House to allocate supplemental funds for security "given the increased threat level."

Pelosi said most of the items on their list have already been addressed with Pelosi tasking retired Lt. Gen. Russel Honoré with leading a review of the U.S. Capitol’s security and new guidance already issued to allow members to use their office budget funds to purchase things like bulletproof vests and security guards at local events.

Wait, now Dems want more guns or less guns? More police or defund the police?

I am so confused...

speaking of drama queens... even more unity going on....

“This is unacceptable,” the New York Democrat said of a report that Robinhood wasn’t allowing users to trade GameStop stock, only to close out their positions.

“We now need to know more about @RobinhoodApp’s decision to block retail investors from purchasing stock while hedge funds are freely able to trade the stock as they see fit,” she wrote on Twitter. “As a member of the Financial Services Cmte, I’d support a hearing if necessary.”

Both lawmakers were in agreement on the need for an investigation into Robinhood's practices but apparently had differing takes on working together.

“Fully agree,” Cruz, R-Texas, replied to Ocasio-Cortez on Twitter.

“I am happy to work with Republicans on this issue where there’s common ground, but you almost had me murdered 3 weeks ago so you can sit this one out,” the progressive firebrand shot back. “Happy to work w/ almost any other GOP that aren’t trying to get me killed. In the meantime if you want to help, you can resign.”

kinda hard to work with a group that has members who have gone on record as wanting to kill you, who have also expressed a desire to bring firearms into the workplace, and which has many armed supporters who want to kill you and others in your party...

The 🦎 socialist Ocasio-Cortez. She ranks up there on the repulsive scale with Pelosi.

Including financial backing and help planning this "riot".

Real GOP Patriots will be a little uncomfortable...
