Last night,
Vice on Showtime aired an interview with former acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller about the Capitol Riot in which he directly blamed his former boss for the attack. Would anybody have marched on the Capitol, and tried to overrun the Capitol, without the president s speech? Miller told
Vice s Seb Walker. I think it s pretty much definitive that wouldn t have happened.
Which is YEAH, NO SHIT and also HOLY SHIT, because he s actually saying the true part out loud. And in a church, set to creepy woo music, for some reason.
A former Democratic candidate for Collin County Commissioners Court, Brooks said she is “appalled” by those Realtors’ actions and wants them to lose their jobs. She hopes the FBI charges them “to the fullest extent of the law.”
“I m a military wife, and my husband and I think that the insurrection was the most un-American thing that we ve seen in a long time,” Brooks said. “And I just wanted them to pay the price for their actions.”
Brooks may be getting her wish.
Friday, Frisco real estate broker Jennifer Jenna Leigh Ryan was arrested by the FBI, which also executed a search warrant at her Carrollton residence. She returned home later that day and asked Trump for a pardon during an interview with CBS-DFW.

The United States (US) continues to focus on the aftermath of the US Capitol Building attack on 6 January, as it looks to move forward with a peaceful transition of power this coming week. Meanwhile, the European Union (EU) process for approving the EU-United Kingdom (UK) trade deal took another step forward this week, as the European Parliament began its review.
Looking ahead, addressing concerns with the People’s Republic of China (“China”) remains an area of potential mutual cooperation among the transatlantic trading partners. Separately, the US shined a spotlight this week on collusion between al-Qaeda and Iran, which may further complicate efforts to address Iran’s increased uranium enrichment levels (as noted in our 11 January report).
