Six months later, the director returns to the Senate after the deadly Capitol assault that involved some of the very classes of extremists featured in Wray’s stark warning in September.

Does D.C. know where Oregon is? Violence on going? Not a question whether this was terrorism. A whole lot of talk about how effective rhetoric was inspiring the “insurrection” that nearly destroyed America. How effective is seeing actual violence as a means of legitimate expression?
Why are these people (because they can’t be considered senators)Why are they talking about everything but what is in front of them. THE ATTACK ON OUR PENTAGON!!!!!
