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

In reply to I think the point is *how did

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.

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.

Timing is everything. Dozens

In reply to sure glad they are finally

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

Why didn't DHS warn? Because DHS had stopped tracking right wing terrorists, leaving it to FBI.

Why didn't FBI warn? Bc FBI spent 4 years hunting down anyone in the Bureau that might investigate Trump associates. https://t.co/yUlC3vaJBC

sure glad they are finally are intensifying their manhunt CAUSE PREVIOUS TO NOW IT WAS A MAJOR MAJOR FAIL:

”Dozens of people on a terrorist watch list were in Washington for pro-Trump events Jan. 6...The majority of the watchlisted individuals in Washington that day are suspected white supremacists whose past conduct so alarmed investigators that their names had bn prvsly entered https://t.co/FyQTO2YsGP

“into the national Terrorist Screening Database..The presence of so many watch-listed individuals in 1 place — without more robust security measures to protect the public — is another example of the intelligence failures preceding last week’s assault” https://t.co/oHcx3h2CLt

Hard not to think that the agencies (DHS, etc.) were under political pressure to look away from pro trump threats and terror suspects... under bogus claim it was out of respect for First Amendment-protected activity that it did not exercise for Black Lives Matter related protests

“Separately, while the FBI is hunting hundreds of rioting suspects who have dispersed back to their hometowns, federal agents are increasingly focused on alleged leaders, members, and supporters of the Proud Boys, a male-chauvinist group with ties to white nationalism...”

Roger Stone linked to both the Proud Boys and Stop the Steal network. Looks like his pardon was issued before the attack on the US govt last week by his comrades

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