Capitol riot participants claim USCP officer said, 'It's your house now': complaint

A suspected rioter who entered the U.S. Capitol amid last week's unfolding chaos said a Capitol Police officer shook his hand upon entering the building and said "It's your house now," according to authorities. 

Once inside, they encountered the officer who grabbed Bauer's hand to shake before making the statement. The officer also shook Hemenway's hand, he recalled. Hemenway told him "sorry," to which the officer replied a second time: "It's your house now." He also gave Hemenway a "half-hug," Hemenway told authorities.
