One Year Later, More Lingering Questions About January 6
American Greatness ^ | 3 Jan, 2022 | Julie Kelly

If Republicans take over Congress next year, they must demand a full investigation under a new select committee.

A bombshell report just published in Newsweek details an in-depth, secret operation conducted by the Justice Department before and during January 6. Contrary to the lamentations of FBI Director Christopher Wray that he wished his agency had had better resources to prevent the Capitol breach, hundreds of elite forces under Wray’s authority were on stand-by days just before the protest, and even on the ground as it happened.

The “shadowy commandos” stationed at Quantico, home of the FBI Academy, on January 2, 2021 included the FBI’s Hostage Rescue Team and SWAT teams.

“On the morning of January 6, most of these forces staged closer to downtown Washington, particularly after intelligence was received indicating a possible threat to FBI headquarters building or the FBI’s Washington Field Office,” Newsweek investigative reporter William M. Arkin wrote. “FBI tactical teams arrived on Capitol Hill early in the day to assist in the collection of evidence at sites—including the Republican and Democrat party national headquarters—where explosive devices were found. FBI SWAT teams and snipers were deployed to secure nearby congressional office buildings. Other FBI agents provided selective security around the U.S. Capitol and protection to congressional members and staff.”

An FBI tactical team, according to the report, entered the building immediately after protesters did, which was shortly after 2 p.m.

To the casual reader, news that the nation’s top law enforcement agency prepared ahead of time to combat possible violence on January 6 is reassuring. But to anyone who has closely followed the hyperpartisan activity of the FBI over the past several years, the article reads more like a confession, confirming deep suspicions that the FBI played an instrumental role

Probably one of the reasons DemocRATs are trying to get federal controls over election laws...so they can put in permanant ways to cheat. Otherwise they will always live in fear that they will be nabbed for orchestrating the whole series of hoaxes against Trump, including January 6.

When questioned, Wray will say he can’t comment on an ongoing investigation. He’ll use that repeatedly to cover up FBI involvement

When Trump was elected, and the pubs had the House and 60 in the Senate, they didn’t go after Hillary, and the other Dem criminals.

If you watch the video of Ashli Babbitt being shot (which I cannot find on YouTube right now but I’ll keep looking) you can see SWAT officers with AR15s storm in right after the shots were fired.

The people on the House floor were never in danger, because of this armed contingent keeping eye on the protesters.

What we all saw on TV was more like a guided tour with police talking to people, calmly letting people in, easing the way by moving rope barriers, etc...........

Looked like an Open House.

What happened that day isn’t really in dispute.

A couple of hundred people breached the Capitol and behaved like idiots.

But if Dems think what occurred was an “insurrection,” it will surely go down in history as the
most comical and futile attempt to overthrow a government in history — more ludicrous than the Beer Hall Putsch in 1923.

“When Trump was elected, and the pubs had the House and 60 in the Senate, they didn’t go after Hillary, and the other Dem criminals.”

That can’t be stated enough. They could have made “changes” and they could have charged people, including Hillary (so many things), Obama ( political spying and others), and Joe Biden (Ukraine-Burisma kickbacks). Yet, they fell right in line with the Democrats, FBI, CIA, NSA. Why?

I think it’s a scam of redirecting taxpayer money to payoffs, and there really aren’t two parties when it comes to that. Just one party, and they want your money and not your voice.

Reading the new law....looks like you don't need a reason for an absentee ballot.

We had signature verification here...which was worthless....cuz we signed a computer screen (in person) ...and everyone knows that there is absolutely no way to match with the book that has my signature. So the whole signature thing is a crock.

Yes.

Why wasn’t Ashli Babbit’s shooter arrested, charged, prosecuted, and convicted of assassination of just plain cold blooded murder?

My only question is WHEN the capital police officer that shot Ashley B will be held accountable. That was the only REAL CRIME onJan. 6th.

When will the jan. 6 commission in the House get some intestinal fortitude and haul in the gutless jerk who shot and killed aan unarmed woman, Ashli Babbitt, the only person killed during the whole damn thing?

more ludicrous than the Beer Hall Putsch in 1923. ................ Aaaaah, but those killed had a monument and a Holiday made for them. Can you possibly imagine what would happen if someone in Congress came up with that idea for Babbitt? The Cop getting the Hero of Socialist America Medal would have no problem.

What about those 5 Congressmen shot by the Puerto Rican terrorists in 1954. It’s the terrorists that got the statues, not the Congressmen.

If Trump had run as a Dem they all would support him in lock step. But Trump saw the tip of the iceberg on corruption with Obama 8 years prior to 2016 so he ran as Rep.

Now ask yourselves - did Trump’s election really matter to the RINO’s, did he truly have a majority or mandate? The answer is obvious - those most defiant against Trump are the most complicit in corruption and treasonous crimes!

“When Trump was elected, and the pubs had the House and 60 in the Senate, they didn’t go after Hillary, and the other Dem criminals.”

But the best news is Trump is not done going after all the lawbreakers both left and right.

Unless we replace ALL of the Bush League Republicans currently in office, the GOP will return to their usual role as Assistant Democrats.
