Kinda what onlookers were complaining about: fearing repeating what had happened w/ #Mueller & w/ #HClinton, #DOJ & its #FBI dept initially slowed efforts collecting evidence re 1/6th collusion & conspiracy. Public’s grumbling & #Jan6thCommittee’s televised hearings slammed them into higher gear.
FBI resisted opening probe into Trump’s role in Jan. 6 for more than a year https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/2023/06/19/fbi-resisted-opening-probe-into-trumps-role-jan-6-more-than-year/

EM’s hypocrisy. Rightwingers throw all kinds of conspiracy epithets at Dems all the time. I try to tweet that the two NE senators extolling their “back the blue” are hypocrites, because they didn’t back the #Jan6thCommittee, etc. And this is what I got. Wasn’t allowed back onto their tweet to do a watered-down, milquetoast reply, either.
#msnbc #ari #Leo #jacksmith Just 2 days after Nov. 20 Election Remember, #Jan6thcommittee #CNN April 9, 2022 #Donjr. text "they had "operational control..." of all avenues to get #Trump back into office. 1st, through court cases then, state(s) intimidation. Later, via #Jan6. When all other avenues failed? Did one of the sewn up avenue(s) DonJr. text include: #SCOTUS as to rule/ judge in Trump favor with help from LEO #Ginny #JusticeThomas. #Kellyanne? Maybe, more folks like Nazi Memorabilists.

Because they “[feared] reprisals from Republicans and powerful tech companies,” the #Jan6thCommittee did not include key findings about how #SocialMedia companies failed to address online extremism, according to a #WashingtonPost investigation.
#Facebook “is considering allowing #Trump back on its platform, a decision expected as early as next week.” [!]

To vote any of them out of Congress, a two thirds majority is necessary---
#Jan6thCommittee worked on assembling details, connections and Criminality--- but legal charges could only come from the Department of Justice to address the #Sedition of #Jan6thCoup #insurrectionists...
Garland's slow pace has allowed the Republican #Seditionists to now control House Rules, Regulations & Attack Committees

"Trump was directly involved in the false elector scheme.
Ronna McDaniel, the chairwoman of the Republican National Committee... recounted a call after the election in which Trump introduced her to John Eastman, the lawyer who wrote a now-infamous memo that laid out a path for the former president to remain in power."

"Joshua Findlay, a Trump campaign lawyer, told the panel he was tasked with looking into fraud allegations in Georgia, but came up empty.
“The big complaints that you would hear about, you know, massive vote flips and things like that, we just didn’t ever... we did not ever find any evidence of that,” he testified."

"Stephen K. Bannon, an outside adviser to Trump, continued to endorse extreme tactics even after the violence of Jan. 6.
On Jan. 8, 2021, he wrote in a text message to his spokeswoman, Alexandra Preate, that he wanted one million people to surround the Capitol after Mr. Biden was seated in the White House."

"Several Trump advisers made clear that Mr. Trump had intended for days to join a crowd of his supporters marching on the Capitol.
“POTUS expectations are to have something intimate at the ellipse, and call on everyone to march to the capitol,” Katrina Pierson, a Trump spokeswoman, wrote in a Jan. 2, 2021, email."

"both women lamented that Mr. Trump had caused irreparable harm to his own staff as the violence played out.
“In one day he ended every future opportunity that doesn’t include speaking engagements at the local Proud Boys chapter,” Ms. Hicks fumed in a message. “All of us that didn’t have jobs lined up will be perpetually unemployed.”

Frances Haugen's testimony for the #jan6thcommittee is absolutely mindblowing.
Turns out, just as a lot of us suspected, Facebook influences decision makers to prevent them from seeing a version of Facebook that might motivate them to act.
this is jarring to see in black and white. Suspected it for years but to see it in print like this... #FrancesHaugen #facebook
Highly recommend reading her entire testimony. I really want to know if the documents she submitted will be made public, particularly on the segmentation of the US into 600 communities
