I suspect that was the intention behind the Jan 6 riot; same playbook as Hitler’s Reichstag fire.

Regarding January 6. Cui Bono? Who benefited? What was supposed to happen on January 6 was the electors from several states were going to be challenged. Evidence of potential election fraud was going to be presented and debated. As soon as the first state’s electors were up for a vote, people entered the Capitol and the vote/debate was postponed until order was restored.

Once order was restored the first state’s electors for Biden were approved and I believe all of the following objections were dropped and their Biden electors were approved. No evidence of vote fraud was able to be presented or debates. So again Cui Bono?

Once order was restored the first state’s electors for Biden were approved and I believe all of the following objections were dropped and their Biden electors were approved.

This is factually incorrect. Read the details of the Congressional proceedings that day. Every objection was heard. Most of them were dismissed out of hand because they don’t even go to a vote unless at least one member of the House and one member of the Senate objects. I believe only two states — I know Arizona was one of them — had an objection from both a House and Senate member.

So Jan 6 havoc was planned to disrupt any challenges to the electors. Knowing Trump’s speech was scheduled to end at the same time, the crowd wouldn’t need much encouragement to protest, (were all the capital grounds off limits?) Once the crowd was formed, with the help of Ray Epps, Megaphone Man, a cadre of antifa rent-a-mobsters and fbi moles, they’d have the distraction they needed to seal the election.

Pelosi-esque.

But was “Insurrection” label and subsequent man-hunt merely an after-thought or part of the plot?
