Original Note:
The image is deceptively cropped. The officer is not holding a door, he is spraying pepper spray at rioters as they are entering the Senate Wing window. The photographers were there to document the Joint Session of Congress that also happened that day. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/10/us/politics/impeachment-capitol-security-footage.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare
