The FBI at the time had already identified 200 suspects in the bureau's sweeping investigation of the riot, Wray said, and warned those who had yet to turn themselves over to authorities.Mandel Ngan/AFP via Getty Images, FILE Senate Judiciary Chairman Dick Durbin, an Illinois Democrat told reporters on Monday that Wray is the"man of the hour."

A senior FBI official said the primary terrorism threat to the U.S. homeland remains the"lone offender," including homegrown violent extremists and domestic violent extremists who are primarily radicalized online and plot to attack soft targets with readily available weapons. In a congressional hearing last week, former Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund argued his force was not properly alerted by law enforcement and intelligence agencies about specific threats to the Capitol in advance of the attack.

haha, the rule of law is a mockery......

DeanObeidallah The FBI should have cracked e down on white supremacist a long time ago instead they went after people peacefully protesting. The white nationalist are more dangerous to law enforcement and minorities than ever before and there are still no laws to stop them.

Jail the MAGA-Terrorists.

Donald Trump is the leader of white supremacists in America. The FBI must prosecute Donald Trump for leading the white supremacist terrorist attack on Jan. 6 that tried to overthrow the U.S. government. If Donald Trump is not prosecuted, this terrorism will continue.

Any person that is reality based knows that. Put they already turned the wannabe dictator free. Is anything going to be done about it or we just to understand that it’s ok to do as we please and run amuck like a ban of heathens?

Trump still recites domestic terrorists motives.

Then do your job & arrest those responsible, Traitor Trump & his cohorts in the Senate... show us there is still justice in America... put them on trial for their crimes, show the evidence & the witnesses... then let the judge decide if they actually broke the law 😷

I want the DOD to testify why it took so long to come and help ANSWERS NOW

I really hope this is NOT on TV. Tired of missing General Hospital for politics. Give me a break!

We all know Trump told supporters to storm the Capital. We watched some Capital police just seem to stand there and do nothing. Now they are retiring or quitting. Had the Senate say Trump is innocent. No matter what Rays will say. Its meaning less. The GOP don't care to hear it.
