Agreed and I'm disappointed that the J6 committee didn't discuss this in the hearings. Rachel Maddow flagged it as the personnel moves happened, but I don't hear many people connecting the dots to the delayed response.
Isn't that funny. The government thought the insurrectionists would be friendly to the police, and the insurrectionists fully believed the police would take up arms with them to overthrow the government.
Wonder why that is? >

Some of those that work forces are the same that burn crosses? >

Hoover's FBI would turn right around and give the confidential info from the NAACP right back to the local law enforcement who then had exactly what they needed to go out and kill the 'snitches".  
Trump's FBI did the exact same thing with the tips that came in about Kavanaugh.  Turned 'em right over to WH lawyers. >

See, that's where they got it wrong; the alt-right is not friendly to police, police are friendly to the alt-right. BIG difference. >

I feel it's like... You like Bob and you're friendly to him both at work and outside of work. Just you're both police officers and Bob is an insurrectionist. >

You know, there's always been something off about Bob. I can't figure out what it is. Maybe it's that tiki torch he keeps at his desk. >

The police force in my town in Texas is 90%
White men who clean shave their heads. I’m not saying they’re all Nazis, but it is disconcerting. >

East Texas? >

Kinda funny that a police force as described in Texas doesn’t really narrow it down that much. Central. >

It’s cop phrenology >

Politically motivated policing is insane. >

All policing is politically motivated >

when people are like "no politics here"
but just simply being alive is a political statement in this world.  
Politics encompasses everything. >

Why did you have to make politics political? >


“People didn’t think that these white nationalists would overthrow the Capitol building.”

It's insane he's really trying the "nobody saw this coming" angle...
Media was reporting it for a solid month before it happened. >

That's honestly the most infuriating part of the attempted gaslighting about this. We knew that right-wing nationalists were flooding D.C. in the weeks leading up to it, and just about every right-wing commenter on every platform were not-so-coyly making their intentions known for all of December with thinly-veiled threats like "we'll see who's president after January 6th."
If anyone says that they didn't think that these people were going to try something on January 6th, they're either willfully ignorant, unbelievably stupid, or outright lying because they had hedged their bets on the insurrection succeeding. >

Because the security intelligence breakdown was planned. Lack of security was baked into the coup plotters plan. It started when traitortrump removed Esper and installed ops at DOD  etc. Miller, Kash Patel and Flynn's brother made sure there was no security. The 3 heads of security at Capitol PD all blamed each other for the intelligence breakdown. And somewhere between 20 and 30 Capitol PD were part of the conspiracy
