"The Justice Department closed its investigation of Gaetz last year after prosecutors recommended that no criminal charges be brought against him. The House Ethics Committee revived its investigation of the Florida lawmaker once DOJ concluded its case and is facing mounting pressure to release its final report."

Just like #J6Committee took up #J6 investigation after #Garland's feebleness, and "jolted" him into action mere weeks before their public hearings

>> Garland even let SS texts re Trump/Pence get Epsteined instead of impounding the exec dept property 😡

#Garland also let #Mueller evidence rot and expire instead of prosecuting #Trump for crimes that Mueller had not "exonerated" him for.

Not sure when Garland started J6 investigation but it seems like #J6Committee "jolted" him into action.

Least he could've done is immediately impound SS texts which as Exec branch property didn't require subpoenas.

that #frontline doc last night had me reflecting on another #January6 precursor which took place in #PDX.

2018-08-04, PORTLAND:
#PPB had set up a designated safe space for the #altright to hold their klan rally, but were trying to check for weapons as a condition of entering the event area. (fascist facebook influencer #JoeyGibson had been making lots of noise about how it would soon be “time for the guns to come out” in his war against portlanders who don’t appreciate nazis murdering their friends). anyway, the out of town fascists (many of whom later did january 6) just refused to enter and held a larger, armed rally right next to the space until they got treated to the spectacle of Portland Police suddenly-but-predictably attacking the anti-nazi #portland residents with near-deadly force.

2021-01-06, DC:
a similar dynamic took place in #DC on #j6 - lots of the #MAGA fascists didn’t want to go through the metal detectors and have their weapons confiscated in order to watch their would-be dictator give one more of his trademark syphilitic rants, so they just waited nearby until it was time to do the putsch. according to the #J6Committee this made #trump really angry (no joke: because it made the crowd look smaller on camera) and he demanded that the metal detectors be removed.

Infosec ExchangeArdy’s (@risibledog@infosec.exchange)every time the j6 committee tried to make a capitol police officer into a weepy hero i just really wanted to see their social media footprint from three weeks prior to J6. we all know the political tendencies of US law enforcement. “leopards eating people’s faces party” and all that. #january6 wouldn’t have been possible without the #portland police in particular, since they helped fascists from around the US practice mass assaults against portlanders for 4 years straight. https://infosec.exchange/@risibledog/111860326228423344 #USpol #MAGA #january6 #fascism #j6 #J6Committee #capitolpolice #JAN6

Whoa, took me hours but I finally pulled this article of my bookmarks and searches and whew! THIS is the #Trump WH blowup on Dec. 18, 2020, MSM was talking about all week. The Giuliani, Flynn, Byrne, Powell Wingnut #Coup Gang meeting.

Swan published a detailed account on Feb. 2 ... 2021, 2.5 yrs. ago; but he didn't have the House #J6Committee video to back it up. He nailed it, though, and well done, Swan.

@drewharwell @cqz
On today's edition of Morning Joe, host Joe Scarborough asked why politicians on the Hill are afraid of Big Tech. The answer is not so difficult to figure out.

Case in point:
As Musk took over the #bluebird mere months before the January 6 Committee released its final report, it became apparent to everyone that he might have acquired access to EVERYONE'S communications. E-V-E-R-Y-O-N-E
