Summary

It's undeniable that there were significant law enforcement and security failures at the US Capitol on January 6. FBI Director Christopher Wray testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee about what the FBI knew and when it knew it. Although these are serious issue, the Republican Senators did their best to inject a good bit of levity (albeit unintentionally), asking about everything BUT the Trump-inspired insurrection at the Capitol. Here's a recap of the serious AND the frivolous questioning of Director Wray. Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/glennkirschner) Learn more about your ad choices.

So, let's talk about FBI Director Christopher Rae's Senate Testimony about the law enforcement

failures on January 6th, because getting to the bottom of why the Donald Trump inspired

insurrection darn near succeeded, like justice, matters.

Hey all, Glenn Kirschner here. So, FBI Director Christopher Rae testified to the Senate

0:44.9

about the security failures on January 6th. Can we start with the lighthearted, the

0:52.8

comical, meaning the questions from the Republican Senators, and then we'll move to the serious.

Because there were definitely some laughs to be had when you listen to guys like Senator

Chuck Grassley, who is still trying to put the January 6th attack on the Capitol on Antifa,

1:17.4

asking the FBI Director. Well, there were really fake Trump supporters who were responsible

1:24.0

for the violence on January 6th. Christopher Rae to his credit said, no, we have no evidence

1:31.6

that Antifa was involved. We have no evidence of fake Trump supporters. Translation, the domestic

1:41.1

terrorists that attacked the Capitol on January 6th were actual Trump supporters, true Trump

2:20.1

Director Rae about FISA warrants, which had nothing to do with January 6th, right? He's still

2:29.2

obsessing over the Mueller investigation. I have to admit, I didn't see all of Mike Lee's

2:35.0

questions, so I don't know if he also asked Director Rae about the steel dossier and Hillary

2:43.7
