US Capitol Police on bikes near RNC billboard in Milwaukee

United States Capitol Police officers on bicycles patrol near a digital billboard displaying "FIGHT THE LEFTWING MEDIA" during the 2024 Republican National Convention in Milwaukee. The convention, a significant quadrennial event for the Republican Party, brings together delegates and supporters to formally nominate their presidential candidate and shape the party's platform. Security is a major concern for such large-scale political gatherings, necessitating visible police presence to ensure public safety and manage potential disruptions. The use of bicycle patrols allows officers to navigate crowded urban environments efficiently and maintain a closer connection with the public.
