Pentagon approves arming National Guard

Strangely enough though, apparently only for the Capitol. "Mr. McCarthy [Army Secretary] has decided that at the very least those around the Capitol building will carry weapons." What about the inauguration, given the violent threats? "Officials said they were particularly worried about the possibility of multiple, violent confrontations, including with firearms, simultaneously flaring up around the inaugural dignitaries." The DC Mayor has asked for additional funding for the inauguration as well as National Guard support, presumably because there is little to none planned. So again, WTF is going on?
