I doubt such a report exists and even if it does, I'm sure Judicial Watch is deliberately misinterpreting it
Whether or not she was armed or posting a threst as an individual is irrelevant. She was part of a mob that wanted to kill people in the room she was trying to enter. I can say with 100 percent certainty that if she got through the window, the mob would have followed and killed people.
Anyone who responds to my claim with "We don't know that" is not being honest.

Look who is getting the case for the newly charged USCP officer.His case will be assigned to US District Judge Amy Berman Jackson, and that's who he'll appear before for the arraignment (for now set for Oct. 26) and whatever comes next. That's a wrap, typical for a short initial appearance.

Prominent QAnon figure Ron Watkins has announced his plans to run for Congress in Arizona via a dramatic video on Thursday. Earlier in the day he filed a “statement of interest” to run in Arizona’s first congressional district against Democratic Rep. Tom O’Halleran, an initial step to petition for signatures to appear on the ballot, as Vice reports.
His apparent bid will make him the most prominent QAnon-related person to run for office in the United States, signifying how deep the far-right conspiracy-driven group has recently taken hold within the Republican party.
In the clip released Thursday evening, he appeared outside Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich’s office. He lauded the AG for “proceeding on election fraud cases” and re-upped the QAnon false claim that the election was stolen from Donald Trump via election fraud. His beliefs along with encouragement from his pastor Jeff Durbin from Apologia Church led to his decision to run against O’Halleran, whom he called “O’Hooligan” in the video.
“I’ve come to realize that following God’s word is not always the easiest route but if we don’t follow our beliefs and the founding principles of our nation, it will crumble this must stop now,” he said. “Therefore I have decided to double down with God as my compass to take this fight to the swamp of Washington D.C. I am here to formally announce my run for Congress in Arizona district number one.”

Rand Paul is complaining that he met a young man in his early 20s who works in DC and lost his job because of J6. Says he shouldn’t have been fired because all he did was “wander through” the Capitol, and was “just curious” and “sort of swept up in the crowd.”

Re: Assault on the Capitol (DC)
If I were to see a group of people breaking into a building, any building, let alone the US Capitol, by smashing windows and breaking down doors, I might take a look, but I certainly would not follow them into the building. I would not allow myself to be "swept up in the crowd". I would be on the phone to 911.
By following the group into the Capitol, even if he had no criminal intent, he made himself an accomplice and deserves punishment.
For an educated man, Rand Paul is a moron.

Re: Assault on the Capitol (DC)
Here's a bit of news that might cheer you up, Rand: You're a United States Senator!
Did you know that?
If this imaginary dude wasn't entirely imaginary, you could have gotten his name and gotten him a new job, and then you'd be something of a minor (very minor) hero, at least some good publicity would result from it.
Do you like good publicity, Rand? Silly question, of course you do. Which is why it's almost too bad this dude is only imaginary, or he might have come with a name.
