I believe trump said a need for 10000 troops was a way to cover his butt, showing concern, yet knowing the plants at the pentagon wouldn't oblige

No doubt that's the way it was set up. Refer to Miller's ltr date 4 Jan 21. This was an inside job with key DoD and LEOs involved, as well as all of trump's henchmen.

Treason.

Seth- please read. Video journalist Sandi Bachom @sandibachom is putting together a detailed spreadsheet of what she snd other video journalists saw that day. She’s still working on it but tweeted that the break in times on three sides of the capital -for which she’s reviewed video - were all within the same few minutes, suspiciously coordinated. Block saying they head people breaking in on all four sides seems relevant to what Sandi saw in terms of timing. I sent her a DM about this too. - LC

Will the really guilty men be charged? Finding Eddie Block's live stream to watch on Jan 6th what stood out was that Proud Boys were a motley crew, not too clever, oddballs, obese or elderly, grown up Boy Scouts - when the able fit and strong were required. Trump was watching. At first he said they were 'his people' but later became 'apoplectic' in embarassment, calling them 'low class' 'white trash' and on seeing the naked shaman that they looked 'cheap and poor'. (Times of Israel, Jan 10th). Probably the "planners" told them that police were onside and a million strong crowd was coming. Fortunately not so: police were brave and only 10,000 turned up for Trump. (Stephen Doig, The Conversation, Jan 8th): a heinous crime had been planned at the White House but carried out by muddled confused participants.

Is there a wag on # of insurrectionists at the Capital?

Stephen Doig is a data journalist and journalism professor at Arizona State University. In this interview, he explains good techniques for estimating crowd sizes “What is a broad estimate that you could believe if it were presented to you?” “I’m perfectly prepared to believe there were several thousand people there, even 10,000 maybe. But when you start pushing that up to 100,000 and so on, that’s not going to be true.”

I believe Seth wrote approx 800 made it inside. Not sure of outside.

Not trying to sound like Jim Jordan by pressing a time line, when is justice coming? I think we all have PTSD from the Mueller report being diffused by Barr. (And yeah Jordon was an awful bully to Fauci but Claiborne took him to the woodshed for it.)

DoJ still getting spun up as this is massive in scope. Garland needs to clean house while still filling positions within the agency.

(This is my first time issuing a temporary ban, so I just learned that you can post your comment on one of the posts that led to the ban. Needless to say, this poster was *not* temporarily banned for the post above, which is innocuous, but for other posts which have since been deleted. Should I need to temporarily or permanently ban any commenter in the future, I'll be certain to post my notice on the correct comment. Apologies for any confusion—lesson learned.)

So apparently you paid $5 to subscribe to Seth's articles emails list so you can show up and say "First!" followed by generic complaints based on your lazy half-assed skimming of his detailed article because you couldn't find a YouTube video comment section where you could vent your impotent rage to random internet folks about irrelevant topics. Yeah that makes sense. Thanks for sharing your profound wisdom with us today. You truly are the hero the internet deserves.

Actually, Miller's entire chain of command (miller on down) need to answer alot of questions, especailly where the other flynn was involved, and for the delays at DoD.

Another main data point is Chris Miller's 4 Jan 21 letter (Employment Guidance for DCNG) which was basically an obstruction to any "quick response" to the events at the Capital.

The former (acting) secdef needs to be deposed.
