#fbi #capitol #riots
They sound like they never given a briefing
Also sounds like he has two accents.
Boston/New York native and then something he’s affected since moving away.
That’s my guess anyway.
Because they know whatever they say we are smart enough to not ever trust or believe in the fbi or any of its corrupted people. They are laughable.
@Tiffany Hammond it’s only trump supporters that find the fbi laughable.
You don’t speak for the entire(or even most) of the country.
It doesn’t matter if you find them laughable though, they still arrest and prosecute criminals of all kinds and always have and always will.
Apparently the D.C. TTF didn’t get the memo.
Um… too little too late, who does the FBI take their direction from?
Dept of justice AG.
CHINA CCP
Flake news
Masks?
Theres no threat to them
Who paid for the bricks for rioters to use last year?
No payment, they were most likely stolen or donated.
Mexico
Winnie you can try and talk reason to these folks till your out of breath. There’s 75 million true patriots in this country. And we vote without the promise of a free chicken diner or a Obama phone. That’s what these cowards are MOST afraid of— our vote. And we are not going anywhere.
Corruption in the FBI and CIA. For years.
The FBI and the doj have no credibility at this point
I remind you that the trump appointees are going to be gone very soon. Wrong to blame the working stiffs for management they don’t select themselves to be under. Trump tells you they suck for four years so you believe it. I don’t. I’ve lived for marijuana reform all my life so I haven’t loved every aspect of law enforcement. But they have many needed benefits to us all. Don’t throw out the baby with the bath water.
Starting with POS Comey. I don’t trust this government all sectors are POS liars.
@John Jay you’d better hope not. Nothing is so simple as that. There is civil service, and there is elected (lobbyist funded) ‘service’. Don’t be confused because they all call themselves the government.
@pmboston Sorry but it’s very hard to believe in the government after so many years of corruption it’s all about them not about the people every department are liars sorry but that is the truth and that’s the way it is and it’s not gonna change unless we the people vote all of these corrupt people out of office
@John Jay I understand, and I’m just saying that most of ‘the government’ is made up of honest employees. The elected officials are a different animal. Which is why the money and power that attracts them to their positions wasn’t in the constitution. As political parties were not as well. The framers knew all about whigs and tories and the corruption of money and power. We have been luckier than we deserve through most of our short history as a country. It has been said by our European allies that Americans will always do the right thing, after they have tried everything else. Let’s hope they are right.
Why didn’t the FBI protect the capital
Because they wanted this to happen so they could use the bad press. Just like Charlottesville when the police blocked off all of the exits from the plaza forcing everyone to exit through a crowd of antifa, wielding baseball bats and guns.
Too busy making sure they pedo rings are safe.
Because that is not their job. Are you dumb?
Yeah what about the death killing of the army veteran by the dirty cop,tell us about it.
What about all the people killed by BLM and Antifa?
Both of you are so misinformed.
@mjbs Prove it or stop lying!
Wasn’t she committing treason?
thought you emotional people were pro cop, guess not
Getting some strong Boston/New York accent from the first guy. He keeps going back and forth between two different accents or something
lol he’s a New Yorker but I can def hear the Boston it’s a weird mix
So the FBI failed on 1/6/2021. There were plenty of online threats and NO action. Hindsight is indeed 20/20.
The FBI failed entirely on locking up all the BLM and Antifa terrorists who killed people and destroyed property.
@mjbs trump lost. it’s over.
@Michael Reynolds that doesn’t make his statement false.
@mjbs really? Who did the BLM protest killed?
Yes we had all the Intel and told others including capital police and nobody did anything is what I got from this.
they planned to allow people in thats for sure.
I wonder how many crooked politicians were behind this.
Hello Marsha, how’re you doing?
@James Stuart hello James how yoooooou doing
@open left I’m doing just fine and you?
@James Stuart doing great just finished my bunker for the civil war. Not sure if I’m going to be a Yankee or a confederate this time around.
@open left how’s the lockdown affecting your region?
Potential violence? Potential?
It actually starts at @15:58
Damit I watched all 15 mins of nothing
Wait, what!? We have an FBI?? When did that happen?
Weird no one went this hard after all the people that stormed the capital the last few years ..
Yea…the FBI have proven themselves to be soooooo trustworthy over the last few years.
Name any of the 3 letter agencies that are trustworthy?
@IQTriggerfishy good point.
What do you expect with a criminal like Trump at the helm?
The crime scene is …
“1600 Pennsylvania Ave”!
Yep, it’s been going on for 4 years.
