The US Senate is Broken

Left Winger either has normal intelligence, and if so, he is an asshole. Otherwise, he is very low IQ to believe such tripe.

The FBI did not stage the January 6 Capitol riot, but it had advance intelligence and pre-deployed agents in response to potential violence. A Department of Justice Inspector General report confirmed that no undercover FBI agents were present during the riot, and none of the 26 confidential human sources (CHSs) at the event were authorized to participate in or incite illegal activity. However, the FBI had heightened its posture in advance, pre-positioning tactical teams and specialized resources due to intelligence indicating possible unrest.

FBI personnel, including SWAT and specialized units, were deployed to Washington, D.C., before and during the event, but in a law enforcement support capacity. These included agents from the Washington Field Office, Hostage Rescue Team (HRT), and Special Agents Bomb Technicians (SABTs), who responded to suspicious devices at the RNC and DNC headquarters and assisted in securing the Capitol. While some reports claim hundreds of FBI agents were embedded in the crowd, official findings state that the FBI did not infiltrate the protest with agents provocateurs or direct informants to commit crimes.

The FBI had not canvassed all field offices in advance to gather intelligence on potential threats related to January 6.
26 confidential sources were in D.C. that day; four entered the Capitol, and 13 entered restricted areas, but none have been prosecuted for involvement.
Journalist John Solomon and others have cited internal FBI documents showing a tabletop exercise in August 2020 that modeled election-related unrest, and a strategy to embed informants and pursue mass prosecutions—tactics later used after January 6.
Claims that the FBI orchestrated the riot, such as those involving Ray Epps or 274 undercover agents, have been debunked by official reports and fact-checkers, though they persist in some media and political narratives.

The Senate is working as intended. Advice and consent is not intended to be a rubber stamp for whatever the president wants.

And newsflash

Jan 6 was an attack on Democracy

The AG should understand that

MAGA is not okay.

Look at what they feel they have to defend.

Anyone would be ruined doing that.

Our govt is corrupted to the core, both parties. It's beyond disgusting.

From the outside, it's quite obvious the right is more corrupt.

But it's also quite obvious that your system is dysfunctional, right from the foundation.

To be fair … it’s been broken for quite some time.
