@emptywheel.bsky.social do you have a podcast episode that just focuses on what direct action taken by Trump circle caused such a colossal failure to see what was obvious plenty ahead of time and prepare for it well in advance

Or an article that brings it together

I see pieces in many places

the more delicious question is:

how many people who work for the fbi are closet nazis, and shitcanned intel they knew would have stopped j6? law enforcement in general has a huge nazi problem and its weird thats not a bigger topic

The far-right have been strong in the FBI and CIA since its foundation in the late 20s and early 30s.

From the Dulce brothers in the CIA, to Hoover himself being a Ernst Rhome-like figure.

Nothing sadly changes in the short term. And fifty years, a hundred years? Drops in the ocean of time.

Well there a gif of the US vs Billie Holiday but I guess I used it so much towards the "wrong people" it's disappeared today. I was going to agree with you & say Billie Holiday would like a word.

But of course, all the J6 folks were good Americans, not those nasty foreigners.

Apparently ,there was nothhng to write home about.Which kinda labels them as an accomplice.

That would’ve required pointing the finger at Trump’s boy, then (A) Director of DHS Chad Wolf, who resigned on 1-11-2021.

Unfortunately this particular maniac will be the first J6 planner to get a pardon. His ex wife and son are in danger.

I just want to get my thumb in his good eye!

Great point: “This applies a wildly different standard for white seditionists than it did, for decades, for Muslim men.”

what if it wasn't a failure? what if it was deliberate?
