Manhunt Intensifies as Authorities Warn Some Rioters May Face Sedition Charges
By artappraiser on Tue, 01/12/2021 - 10:46pm |Evidence emerged that top officials, including at the F.B.I., had warnings about violence before the riot at the Capitol.

WASHINGTON — Federal law enforcement officials vowed on Tuesday to accelerate a nationwide manhunt for hundreds of people who committed serious crimes during last week’s assault on the Capitol, even as new evidence surfaced that the F.B.I., police and White House were warned of potential violence that day.
Michael R. Sherwin, the acting U.S. attorney in Washington, called the investigation into the attack on the Capitol “unmatched” in scope and said it had already resulted in more than 170 cases involving 100,000 digital tips. He pledged that prosecutors could file charges of seditious conspiracy, murder and other serious felonies in the weeks ahead.
“The Capitol grounds outside and inside are essentially a crime scene,” Mr. Sherwin said during a news conference in Washington, adding that “we have literally thousands of potential witnesses” around the country.
His remarks came as evidence mounted that before the grim events at the Capitol — in which lawmakers and others hid from an angry, surging mob and five people died in the riot and nearby tumult — top officials in government had reason to be deeply concerned about the possibility of violence. The indications included a pair of F.B.I. reports that warned of war and blowing up a building at a Midwest statehouse, and a White House meeting where President Trump and top military officials discussed deploying the National Guard [....]

He's pegged my discomfort exactly, it went beyond schadenfreude moving more towards the stadium scenes in the movie "Idiocracy".

Marcy noted DHS has spent 4 years *protecting* white supremacists from being treated like terrorists.

Timing is everything. Dozens on Terrorist Watchlist came on through.

I think the point is *how did they arrive w/o being picked up*?
Because they weren't being actively looked for. Now yes. End of an era.
Bigger question is what to do to keep them from coming back and wantonly gutting gov departments as they did so much this time. Since there doesn't seem to be that much acknowledgment how much of this all was to gut government and disrupt its normal functioning as best they could.

I don't think there is a way to insure a way to avoid the abandonment of governance on this level as a matter of protocol or legislation of requirements.
If enough people think it doesn't matter, it won't matter. It is our Republic, if we can keep it.

It's still "how do we counter Fox? what do we do when they're gutting us across the board? how do we counter these Newt/Tom ''The Hammer' DeLay/McConnell tactics in the Senate?" Anyway, yes, too big a question right now
