   After stonewalling release of reports filed by the Capitol   
   Police protective detail that was with Harry Reid when he   
   suffered mysterious injuries on New Year’s Day, Kim C. Dine,   
   chief of the Capitol Police, is reported to have resigned.   
   Bridget Bowman and Emma Dumain of Roll Call (hat tip: Breitbart)   
   report:   
      
    U.S. Capitol Police Chief Kim C. Dine has submitted a letter of   
   resignation to the Capitol Police Board, multiple sources with   
   direct knowledge of the situation confirmed to CQ Roll Call.   
      
   It is not currently known whether the letter has or will be   
   accepted by the three-member board, made up of the House and   
   Senate sergeants-at-arms and the Architect of the Capitol.   
   Multiple attempts to secure a comment from Dine were   
   unsuccessful.   
      
   There are other issues aside from the mystery surrounding Reid,   
   whose story about his injuries has changed:   
      
   The chief’s letter of resignation also comes amid reports of   
   conflict within the department, which employs 1,775 sworn   
   officers and 370 civilians. A recent CQ Roll Call report   
   detailed growing frustration among rank-and-file officers   
   regarding alleged policies passed down from department brass   
   that officers should not participate in “low value” stops around   
   the Capitol campus.   
      
   The officers said the top priority was combating terrorist   
   threats against the Capitol and lawmakers, with day-to-day   
   policing taking a backseat.   
      
   Lawmakers questioned Dine about officer morale at a recent House   
   Legislative Branch Appropriations Subcommittee hearing.   
      
   But it is clear that Harry is watching out for his guy:
