Well, what is it, then?
It’s Cornyn noting that there are all different kinds of people accused of domestic terrorism, asking Chris Wray whether charging for the specific acts they do rather than the terroristic intent behind their actions is the best way.
It’s taken as a stab in the back toward J6ers because the government used fake charges against a lot of J6ers who weren’t doing anything wrong - and the ones who really WERE doing the wrong (most of them actors paid to do it) were NOT charged. So justice was not done, based on a false narrative of who were actually the terrorists. The terrorists were the ones who paid the actors to do the acts to set up the Trump supporters as the bad guys. That would be Nancy Pelosi, Bowser, Milley, etc, as I noted.
But in cases like Ice Watch, where they plan obstruction of justice, violence, trespassing, slander, coordination with government and law enforcement to commit those crimes, etc... Cornyn’s questions are valid.
So he was asking reasonable questions, when you lay aside the false “narrative” of J6. He did refer to a “narrative” and implied that J6ers doing violence were not necessarily just “Trump supporters” in general, but he didn’t outright confront Wray about that false narrative. And I don’t know what his other statements are about J6 - especially in light of SCOTUS’s slamming down how the prosecutors misused a statute to charge people who committed no crime, and how they upped the penalties on those non-crimes as well.
Markwayne Mullin was recorded saying he gave Michael Byrd a hug. And somebody posted here that Cornyn also praised Byrd. But I wonder how much either of those guys knew at that time about how this was all a set-up. Like I said, hard to tell if they are treasonous or just deceived for a time. What they’ve said since a bunch of stuff has been exposed could help answer that question, and I don’t know what they’ve said since.
