our thanks. your rewards. the january 6th committee s final report is nearly 900 pages long! but despit warnings that they could becom violent, we saw that the intelligence committee escaped major criticism for missin foreseeable capitol violence instead the committee and th report focused largely o trump s role, which wa inciting the rioters to figh like hell, concluding that the best defense against tha danger will not come from la enforcement but from a informed and active citizenry. let s discuss, for more i want to bring in associated press reporter, eric tucker, who covers the fbi and the department of justice, and dr. harvard, former chief of homeland security an intelligence who himself warne of potential violence ahead of january 6th. this has been a extraordinary frustrating,
