FBI Investigation Finds No Evidence of Communications Between Any Republican Member of Congress and Capitol Rioters but the Damage Is Done
Red State ^ | 03/06/2021 | Streiff

The last of the Capitol rioters had barely vacated the premises when Nancy Pelosi’s allies began slandering their Republican colleagues claiming that Republican members of Congress had taken an active role in permitting the demonstrators…indeed, if they were BLM demonstrators, we would be calling them “peaceful”…to enter the Capitol. Baseless allegations were made that some Republican members of Congress allowed rioters to enter the Capitol by having them issued visitor’s passes. This is Nancy Pelosi:

In order to serve here together, we must trust that people have respect for their oath of office, respect for this institution. If in fact it is found that members of Congress were accomplices to this insurrection — if they aided and abetted the crimes — there may have to be action taken beyond the Congress in terms of prosecution for that.

The whole story reached a crescendo two weeks ago when it was revealed that the FBI had subpoenaed the telephone records of members of Congress.

WITHIN HOURS OF the storming of the Capitol on January 6, the FBI began securing thousands of phone and electronic records connected to people at the scene of the rioting — including some related to members of Congress, raising potentially thorny legal questions.

Using special emergency powers and other measures, the FBI has collected reams of private cellphone data and communications that go beyond the videos that rioters shared widely on social media, according to two sources with knowledge of the collection effort.

In the hours and days after the Capitol riot, the FBI relied in some cases on emergency orders that do not require court authorization in order to quickly secure actual communications from people who were identified at the crime scene. Investigators have also relied on data “dumps” from cellphone towers in the area to provide a map of who was there, allowing them to trace call records — but not content — from the phones.

This didn’t have the panache of John Brennan having members of Congress subjected to electronic surveillance because they opposed the Iran nuclear deal, but it is close. You can bet that the cell records of members of Congress who are giving the FBI difficulties were thoroughly mined to determine who inside the FBI was leaking information.

Now the inquiry is complete. This is the complete coverage from the New York Times. It is hidden inside a bullsh** story (read Media Continues to Try to Tie President Trump to the Capitol Riot Because They Are Terrified of His Popularity) purporting to link a “person associated with the White House” with a member of the Proud Boys.

The same data has revealed no evidence of communications between the rioters and members of Congress during the deadly attack, the official said. That undercuts Democratic allegations that some Republican lawmakers were active participants that day.

This is just another of the completely false narrative peddled by the Democrats, the media, the National Review, the Bulwark, the Dispatch, and a bunch of pedo-enabling losers that have self-destructed. The sad fact is that the truth probably does not matter. Pelosi’s goal was to tar all the GOP with direct responsibility for the Capitol riot and use those false allegations in the 2022 campaign. The narratives are out there. A viciously partisan press is still circulating, even the provably false ones. We will see these allegations again in the next election…and the next.

Yep! As a famous House leader once said: "It's the charge that matters, not the evidence"
At least something like that...

What about communications with Democratic members of Congress? What about communications with the FBI and the rest of those miscreants?

Nancy Pelosi’s allies ...claiming that Republican members of Congress had taken an active role in permitting the demonstrators

That's projection. Whenever you want to know what the Dems have been doing - listen to what they accuse others of doing.

Another day; another Democrat hoax. Sadly, there’s never a shortage of idiots that vote for Democrats.

Still would like to know who opened the alarmed Fire Exit and who ordered that hallway from the exit to be roped off to guide trespassers to the House Chambers.

The FBI is Stasi. Investigating Congress is inexcusable. It’s as bad as the CIA spying on their computers.

We have become a police state. And political Orthodoxy is enforced by law.

“What about communications with Democratic members of Congress?”

They weren’t interested in or looking for such communications. And if they stumbled upon mountains of evidence of this they would not be able to see it because they have their eyes closed.

I'm shocked! Genuinely, and doubly. On one hand, I'm shocked (sarcastically) that gosh, no GOP or conservatives are implicated. Duh! Additionally I'm genuinely shocked that the FBI, such a corrupted and co-opted organization would publicly admit such a thing.

Color me waiting for the other shoe to drop.
