FBI Failed 'at Fundamental Level' Before Capitol Riot, Senate Report Claims
BBC ^ | 5/28 | Gareth Evans

The FBI and other US government agencies failed "at a fundamental level" to assess the potential for violence ahead of the Capitol riot on 6 January 2021, a new report claims.

Democrats on a Senate panel found the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) "downplayed" the risks and so did not properly prepare.

The 105-page report, titled Planned in Plain Sight, was released on Tuesday.

It criticises officials for misjudging and reacting slowly to tip-offs.

"At a fundamental level, the agencies failed to fulfil their mission and connect the public and non-public information they received," the report reads.

Blackdog...nailed it. It was a successful coup by our ruling class. Feds did exactly what they set out to do that day. They even got a couple extra kills. The stopped the presentation of the industrial scale voter fraud to the people of the United States of America.

Hogwash. A completely coordinated false flag to achieve the un-Constitutional results too many innocent citizens are still suffering.

Yet another layer of propaganda on top of multiple layers of propaganda. Failure to prepare? What preparation? The need for even more FBI assets? The need for even more BLM/Antifa agitators?

What a cover crock.

The Justice Department and the FBI should both be shut down
after their recent displays of moral fiber.

I also think the FISA court, homeland security, and the
legislation that brought them into existence should be
at the minimum reviewed and corrected, or better yet
simply stricken down in whole.

America's law enforcement agencies should never be allowed to include "Counterintelligence " operations within the borders of our country. That is just a wordsmithing version of lying, espionage, social unrest, election rigging, money laundering, spying, and 101 more heinous crimes against the American people.

Play nice. Be respectful. If not, be shut down, for there is no greater good in sustaining the woodchippers of our liberties, thinking anything good can come of such rot.

Yeah, they simply didn’t have enough tour guides to show everybody around and therefore people had to meander around by themselves. What a catastrophe.

The _one time_ the Demonrats complain that DOJ and Capitol Police didn’t crack down _hard enough_ on protesters.

So for 9-11, the official lesson was that the FBI had the information but bungled putting two and two together.

With that hard experience behind the FBI, the official lesson from Jan 6 is that the FBI had the information but bungled putting two and two together.

I can’t quite...make it out. Is there ...some sort of ...pattern emerging?

Bollocks. The end result proves the FBI did its job perfectly well.
