Good morning! Here's a nice eye opener for Americans! Yesterday the FBI finally admitted, publicly, that January 6th was NOT an insurrection.

Nice, huh? 20 FBI agitators, who were there to encourage the rioters, disappeared afterward, returned to their homes and their normal lives. The police officer who shot the unarmed female veteran as she entered the capitol building will not be charged. The rioters who disappeared into federal jails afterward will be charged for appropriate things on a case by case basis.

Nancy Pelosi and AOC are choking on their own sh!t right now.

Sounds like the mess with FBI misconduct in the Whitmer (Michigan's Governor) kidnapping case. Seems FBI handlers were caught telling informants to wipe email and other communication records. There is a fine line between being an undercover informant and an active participant/instigator. One has to wonder about the case handler ordering the illegal destruction of evidence.
It is very difficult to handle an undercover operation without things running off the rails.

@bowman81 They were taking orders, I am sure. The higher ups wanted a fiction to be maintained.

What I really want to know is WHO is giving these orders to the FBI?

@4meAndyou I think it is more insidious than that. It is a cultural thing, make a big case, ingratiate yourself, get prime postings and put on the fast track. Make a mess of things and get stationed in Western North Dakota, or Detroit. Desperately holding your wet finger in the air to test the wind then trying to please someone to advance your career. Politics have always mattered with the Feds.

@bowman81 Someone had to authorize the operation.

@bowman81 Well, I am certainly not familiar with that sort of culture rot...but I understand it is pervasive in politics. And I do know that the DOJ has become almost completely corrupt. And that is probably because the higher ups in the DOJ are politicians at heart.

I fear that corporate American is now becoming more and more rotten in the same way. People are AFRAID to speak their minds because they are AFRAID to lose their jobs.

@bowman81 Let me add that the rank structure all the way to the top (with the exception of the appointed Director) is populated with people who were good at that sort of thing. They did it to get to where they are and expect it from the underlings. So stuff doesn't have to get "authorized" in a formal sense, and when things go wrong, the blame is pushed as far downhill as possible.
That is the "culture" I speak of.

@bowman81 The military is structured in the same way. That's how we ended up with Milly.
