Reuters ran a misleading story on Friday, claiming the FBI had found “scant evidence”
And of course as the article points out, that freak of nature Steve Bannon is promoting more BIG LIES.Reuters ran a misleading story on Friday, claiming the FBI had found “scant evidence” of a coordinated effort behind the January 6 attack on the Capitol, when a mob of Trump supporters rioted in an effort to stop Congress from certifying President Joe Biden’s victory in the 2020 election over former President Donald Trump.
“Ninety to ninety-five percent of these are one-off cases,” said an unnamed source, referred to by Reuters as “a former senior law enforcement official with knowledge” of the investigations. “Then you have five percent, maybe, of these militia groups that were more closely organized. But there was no grand scheme with Roger Stone and Alex Jones and all of these people to storm the Capitol and take hostages.”
The problem with this take is that it is far too simplistic in terms of what really happened in the lead-up to January 6 — and it is already being misused by right-wing extremists who helped cause the events that day, in order to spread further lies.
The lies about the 2020 election were themselves the coordination
But as many others have pointed out, the idea of a singular coordination of the attack has never been the central issue, compared to the vast pattern of incitement and the harmful propaganda about the 2020 election that sincerely motivated those people to go to the Capitol.

The Big Lie was also the product of a right-wing media campaign to subvert the 2020 election, which created a self-contained information bubble in service of Trump’s failed efforts to remain in power.

BLUEXITA Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red
Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.
It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.
This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

Reuters is usually pretty factual. But this story was deceptive. They implied the FBI was making these claims, but the story demonstrated no such thing.Originally Posted by Cinnabar

It is such an in-you-face, common sense and logical conclusion that the BIG LIE propagandists were responsible for instigating the attack on the Capitol. smfh

A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

With all these arrests, it's a sad commentary on the USA, which was designed to be a nation of laws, that the perpetrators such as Trumps and his crime syndicate, are still not being held accountable.

Retired general defends Mark Milley's calls to China on Fox News: 'Being sensationalized'
Retired Gen. Jack Keane appeared Wednesday on The Story With Martha MacCallum, where he came to the defense of Gen.Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. In their upcoming book Peril, Bob Woodward and Robert Costa report that Milly made secret calls with China in October 2020 and January 2021 over fears former President Trump might start a war. The authors claim that the purpose of the calls was to assure his Chinese counterpart that Trump would not start a war.
While Republicans have become enraged by the reporting, calling Milley’s actions treasonous, and calling for him to resign or be fired, Keane says the calls were nothing out of the ordinary.
“Gen. Milley’s making a phone call to provide reassurances, which is his job,” Keane said. “I mean, he's executing his responsibility and he’s doing it in concert with his own advisers and then sharing that with the interagency.”
Keane also said that the president not being briefed on the calls was nothing unusual, and believes the whole story is being overblown.
“I don’t see anything that is undermining the civilian control of the military,” Keane said. “If you took the facts, that are, I think, being sensationalized in this report, that would be an issue, as you (McCallum) just regurgitated here. But that is not what the Pentagon is reporting. It seems to be pretty much in sync with what we're used to seeing.”
One of the points of outrage among some is the report that Milley made these calls in secret, with some critics believing he was undermining Trump, as has been the message in some segments on Fox News’s primetime shows. But Fox’s own Jennifer Griffin reported on Wednesday that the calls were in fact not secret, and that they were coordinated with multiple high-level Pentagon officials. It was even reported that Trump’s Secretary of Defense Mark Esper took the lead in the first call.
