I HAVE QUESTIONS. And we all need answers. What really happened leading up to Jan. 6. A thread.

Sometimes I try to post useful information based on reliable sources. This is not one of those times. We don't know ANYTHING about the events that could have led to the killing of almost everyone in the chain of succession. We need to know.

On Jan 6, 2021, the presidential line of succession was VP Pence, N Pelosi (speaker of the house), Chuck Grassley (President pro Tempore Senate) ... then Pompeo (State), Mnuchin (Treasury). The first three were in the Capitol when it was attacked. The rest are Trump/RU toadies.

The videos show that Pence and Pelosi were targets of the mob, as was any R that was unwilling to break their oath and back Trump. Based on the "pillow guy" plan it seems safe to assume Trump would have let them die, declared a state of emergency, and taken power by force.

And so, we have to have both Congressional and criminal investigations into how the mob got as far as they did. Among those questions:

1. AG Barr was the architect of the overly aggressive federal response to the BLM protests. He resigned and fled on Dec 23, 2020, during the planning for the Jan 6 insurrection. WHAT DID HE KNOW WHEN HE LEFT?

2. The line officers of the USCP were underequipped, under-trained and under a no-deadly-force order. (the no deadly force order may have been correct, granted). WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR STAFFING, EQUIPMENT AND PLANNING ON JAN 6, AND WHY DID THEY LEAVE OFFICERS VULNERABLE?

3. The US Army failed to send Nat'l Guard, and lied about the presence of exGen Mike Flynn's brother in key phone calls denying assistance to the USCP. WHAT ROLE DID C FLYNN PLAY, AND WHY DID DOD LIE?

4. The US Army failed to send troops, despite urgent pleas, under "troops in the Capitol would look bad" theory. WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, WHY were these decisions made? Who overruled them?

5. The Trump administration placed lackeys at DOJ, DOD and DHS in the last days before 1/6. WHAT ROLE DID THESE PEOPLE PLAY; WHAT DID THEY KNOW ABOUT 1/6 PLANS FOR ASSAULT; DID THEY PREVENT APPROPRIATE RESPONSE?

6. Elements of seditionists appear have had inside information about Capitol layout and emergency plans for government officials in Capitol. DID THEY HAVE INSIDE HELP? DID FBI, SARGENT AT ARMS, USCP, DOD HAVE ADVANCED KNOWLEDGE THAT THIS KNOWLEDGE WAS IN THE WILD?

Stone, Bannon, Trump, Trump, Jr., Flynn, Alex Jones and many other Trumpists called for violence on 1/6. DO THEIR ACTS AND COMMUNICATIONS CONSTITUTE SEDITIOUS CONSPIRACY AND/OR TREASON?

It was clear to ANYONE following White National radicals, Q loons or Trumpists in general that there was violence planned for the 6th. The FBI knew. Other agencies knew. WHO SUPPRESSED THE INFORMATION FLOW AND THE APPROPRIATE RESPONSE?

Republicans in the house and senate rambled on with their specious objections while rioters breached the Capitol. DID THEY KNOW THE ATTACK WAS UNDERWAY AND PURPOSEFULLY KEEP PELOSI, SCHUMER AND PENCE IN HARMS WAY?

3. This is pertinent

Despite attempts by certain folks to paint the attempted armed overthrow of the government as something that "just happened," like a tornado or a white squall, there was a good deal of planning that went into it. We need to know who was behind it, who supported it (including financial support), who knew ahead of time and said nothing, and who aided and abetted the insurrection, both in the lead up and the execution.

5. We need, at least the amount of time,

money and tv hearings that was spent on Benghazi. Perhaps 2 or 3 times as much.

6. And...there seems to have been a concerted effort by various means to delay certification for

at least 10 days...that's why an audit was requested. What was the purpose of delay? What could have happened in the following 10 days?
