W.T.F. happened to Chris Miller? Who got to him? What did they use to threaten him? I had to look up who he was because I was confused by his testimony. He condemned frumpy in January, now what's his deal?

As a mom in FL, I knew this was going to be bad, just reading posts from wack-a-do family members. How were people who are tasked with protecting DC not aware, not concerned, and not communicating? Congress people were literally giving these terrorists tours of the building on Jan 5th. Something is not quite White....

I am so confused. There was so much out there to indicate that this was not going to be a normal protest. Compounded with the rhetoric coming from the speakers at Trumps pre-rally. How in God's name could this not have been a known. How did the situation become security trying to catch up. How come there was such a delay in response from some entities. Is there seriously no one to place blame on this colossal disaster?

Based on Rosen’s testimony (see page 3)

“During the week of December 28, I received reports that MPD and others estimated that between 10,000 and 30,000 people would be coming for the rallies or protests on January 6—a sizable, but not unprecedented number”

the DOJ, DHS, DOD, FBI, MPPD et al —have previously testified that “raw intelligence” from the Norfolk FBI field office was “sent” to USCP but for whatever reason that raw intelligence was never flag nor did it make it to MPPD Chief Contee’s desk, DC Mayor’s desk or USCP Chief desk or Sgt at Arms for the House and Senate. I do think this was a catastrophic intelligence failure but hearings like this will help identify the “broken link” in the information chain.

The DOD has a lot of explaining to do -delay was two hours and nineteen minutes...i largely blame the Trump White-House of chaos and sedition. The article below has an embedded DOD Timeline.
