Wednesday’s edition of the PBS NewsHour featured veteran journalist Judy Woodruff cheering on an obsessive group of “citizen investigators” who have teamed up with the media’s favorite domestic surveillance organization to turn in people who entered the U.S. Capitol building on January 6, 2021: “How citizen investigators are helping the FBI track down Jan. 6 rioters.”

If it were right wingers doing this they would be calling them “vigilantes” and saying they’re “taking the law into their own hands”
I wonder what percentage of these “rioters” simply entered the Capitol after the doors were open and the police were watching them, then walked through the Rotunda, staying between the velvet ropes and then out.
If Republicans in DC were really on our side, they would show that picture of the people walking through the rotunda over and over again so that Americans would see that as much as they see the ( possibly FBI, etc. plants) breaking down barricades, etc. Unfortunately the Republican party in DC is not on our side
Their blue haired granddaughter will turn them in.
The headline is illiterate. A confused jumble of words.
