This week, the United States Senate Committee on Homeland Security & Governmental Affairs released a new report detailing the intelligence failures that led to the riots and overtaking of the U.S. Capitol Building on January 6th. Creatively titled, Planned In Plain Sight, the report lays out how it wasn’t a failure to obtain intelligence but rather a failure to act on the numerous tips and social media posts that predicted just how violent things were going to get on that fateful day.

Singling out both the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Department of Homeland Security, the report pulls no punches. Raking the FBI and DHS over the coals, stating unequivocally that…

“…those agencies failed to fully and accurately assess the severity of the threat identified by that intelligence, and formally disseminate guidance to their law enforcement partners with sufficient urgency and alarm to enable those partners to prepare for the violence that ultimately occurred on January 6th. At a fundamental level, the agencies failed to fulfill their mission and connect the public and nonpublic information they received.”

Shots fired!
