👇 Barr, Wray, and Haspel, just read the obituary for their careers.

The entire CIA, FBI, and AG have been outworked by a private attorney.

And let me add it is the job of the CIA and FBI to PREVENT this from occuring, not investigate after the fact. That mandate was changed after 9/11. Congress needs to ask how did this voter fraud occur and how was it able to operate unimpeded with no disruption from said agencies.
The FBI was mandated to create a Directorate of Intelligence whose main function is to identify emerging threats to the US: terrorism, foreign intelligence service operations, transnational criminal enterprises, and other things on a grand scale like election interference.
The new mandate is to disrupt, deter and dismantle. How did the FBI fail on such a massive scale? The FBI has analytical units in each field division whose sole job is to identify emerging threats in their area of responsibility.
POTUS even identified the threat for the FBI regarding mail in ballot fraud and potential foreign interference. The FBI has something they use to legally collect intelligence in their AOR to prove or disprove if certain activities are occurring.
It is called a Threat Assessment. Under a TA, FBI Agents can recruit and task informants, conduct interviews, liaison with other agencies and private entities to identify if their is such a threat. FBI analysts can use databases at their disposal.
This could have been conducted individually by each field office (independently forward thinking) or come as a mandate from the Directorate of Intelligence. The question is, was any of this conducted at all?
If the FBI did not try to collect intelligence on such a potential threat, then they failed their mandate. If the FBI did open TA's and still failed to identify such a threat, which essentially operated in the open and with impunity, then what were they doing?
This should have been a top down threat that AG Barr and Wray had their finger on the pulse and routinely received briefings and updates.
In the end, outside of 9/11, this was the biggest intelligence failure in US history where foreign and domestic actors were able to completely disrupt and hijack the presidential election.

Barr, Wray, and Haspel, failed.

If you're curious what Trump's defense will look like, all you have to do is turn on Fox News. My latest at @mmfa

The tl;dr is that for years right-wing media have been excusing Trump's violent rhetoric by going, "Yes, but THE DEMOCRATS..." and then bending themselves into knots to pretend that Dems were calling for violence when they very, very clearly weren't.

And in fact, this predates Trump.

In 2008, Obama was talking about not backing down in the face of an ugly campaign. He said "If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun."

That quote was from the movie The Untouchables. And there's no way anybody reading that quote in good faith could conclude that he was talking about actual guns and knives. But it became a big talking point on the

In 2018, Obama-era Attorney General Eric Holder was speaking to a group of Georgia Democrats about GOP voter suppression. He riffed on Michelle Obama's "When they go low, we go high" line from the 2016 DNC.
