Bureau of Prisons provided the unmarked police?

They said on MSNBC that the guards without marks/insignia might be from the Bureau of Prisons.

Here is link for the wiki page for the Federal Bureau of Prisons -

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Bureau_of_Prisons


The Bureau of Prisons was established within the Department of Justice in 1930, by the United States Congress,[5] and was charged with the "management and regulation of all Federal penal and correctional institutions.


Does Lafayette Park or the White House qualify as a federal correctional institute?

This is really starting to sound like something Barr had his fat fingers into.

Hey, Congressional Democrats! Ya think this is something to look into?!

But really, they need some ID to determine what actual authority they have. Otherwise they are just intimidating props.
