WASHINGTON — Many questions remain unanswered about the failure to prevent the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.

It’s also clear that no one wants to take responsibility for it. Officials who were in charge of protecting the Capitol, and the people inside it, have pointed fingers at each other in testimony to the House and Senate.
