Capitol Riot: Connect These Dots -- and Tell Me what you Think

1) Capitol Police: "[T]he responsibility of policing the Capitol [is] under the direction of the presiding officer of the House and Senate" 

2) Capitol Police warned by FBI, NYPD of risk of violence at Capitol: report

3) 'Unacceptable!': Probe Demanded After Footage Shows Capitol Police Standing Aside for Pro-Trump Mob

4) Outgoing Capitol Police chief accuses House, Senate security officials of hindering efforts to call in National Guard

"Sund told The Washington Post in an interview published Sunday night – his first since the events at the Capitol Wednesday — that he asked House and Senate security officials in the days before Congress was set to count the Electoral College votes to allow him to request the D.C. National Guard to be on standby in case troops were needed ahead of the pro-Trump protests. 
 
 "But Sund, who was officially replaced as Capitol Police chief on Friday after his resignation, told tthe newspaper that the officials denied the request."

5) The FBI failed to give a "defensive briefing" to the Trump Campaign of possible foreign influence during the 2016 election while it gave such a briefing to the Clinton Campaign. (added 1/11/21)

6) Non-Trump supporters may have been present. (added 1/12/21)

7) McConnell is said to be pleased about impeachment, believing it will be easier to purge Trump from the G.O.P. (added 1/12/21)

8) FBI report warned of ‘war’ at Capitol, contradicting claims there was no indication of looming violence (compare with #2,4) (added 1/12/21)

9) FBI says there is ‘no indication’ that antifa took part in U.S. Capitol riot (added 1/13/21)

10) FBI director says antifa is an ideology, not an organization (added 1/13/21)

11) Dick Morris: Impeachment Goal: Ban Trump In 2024 (added 1/14/21) 

Connect these dots and tell me what you think.  If you have additional info that might change the conclusion, post a link.   

MARK LEVIN CONNECTED THE DOTS!

12) Mark Levin: There's No Evidence Of Trump Inciting An Insurrection (added 1/16/21)

The new bit of info from this monologue is that Trump and his Secret Service detail were never told of the likelihood of violence.  That would be consistent with #5 above to show a political motive (my opinion).
