FBI official Steven D'Antuono says the bureau has opened 160 case files relatd to U.S. Capitol insurrection.
"That's just the tip of the iceberg."
"I think the scope and scale of this investigation in these cases are really unprecedented not only in FBI history but really in DOJ history."
He says the Capitol Grounds are, essentially, a crime scene.
-Simple trespassing
-Theft of mail
-Theft of digital devices
-Assault on local/fed officers
-Theft of potential national security info
-Felony murder
He says they're charging some of these suspects quickly on the first possible charge, which buys law enforcement time to develop far more significant investigations leading to bigger charges.
"They were real devices, they had explosive igniters." He doesn't know why they weren't detonated.
He says they're looking at "money, travel records, disposition, movement, communicaftion records."
"This was an attempted coup to derail our Constitutional process and intimidate our duly elected leaders through violence."

"End of Sturgeon?"
Frankly, an appropriate response from @NicolaSturgeon might be to quote the infamous Mark Twain response to an erroneous 'obituary' known to all...
"The reports of my demise are greatly exaggerated."

More accurately, the media have quoted:
"Ms Sturgeon said she had a “real job to do” and was focused on guiding Scotland through the Covid-19 pandemic."
It's very reassuring to hear that @scotgov and @ScotGovFM have prioritised safeguarding lives and Scotland, above all else.
"I’ll leave others to play games or politics. I have got a real job to do and people can decide themselves whether I am doing it well or not, but I am absolutely 100 per cent focused on leading this country through a pandemic."
💯% 😀👍
Making her priorities crystal clear!
“That’s what I’ve done since this time last year and it’s what I’m going to continue to do for absolutely as long as necessary.”
And again, making it absolutely crystal clear!
