you take the test on it and moved as you said into the research project part. is that a coincidence that almost everything the national review complained about in september was changed? it s not true. i need to take you into the sausage making to understand what happened. someone leaked a draft document to the national review. this is the first year we are running this course. it is a pilot that s in 60 schools. normally, an advanced placement course has two parts. it has a framework that has learning objectives and essential knowledge students must master and it has a digital library where sources reside. in the first year of the pilot, all of that is in one draft document. it hasn t been separated. when we released half of one of the two parts, folks jumped on the fact that some of the names that appeared in the draft document did not appear in the
sources. still bureau officials played down not preventing the worst assault on the capitol since the war of 1812. as you heard in the testimony from fbi director christopher wray there s a focus on lone wolf attack. the particular focus obscured its ability to see a broad right wing movement come together. according to the draft document, the unclassified red cell analyst, which is dated october 27, 2020, discussed four potential situations that involve lone offenders, but none suggested the rise of a mass movement that might support an agrieved losing candidate. an actor such asthmaly sha groups or white supremacists who took a leading role in the attack. that wasn t the only bias that prevented the fbi from seeing the possibility of a january 6th
you see this in this red cell exercise they did when they couldn t move beyond, four examples of lone wolves and failed to see the wider movements that were happening with the oath keepers and proud boys, the two of them especially. and then the other thing, as you mentioned, was the false equivalency, they call it an ineffective prioritization. this threat banding they have where antigovernment and racially motivated violent extremists like white supremacists are on the same tier and thus deserve the same attention. this draft document pointed out that was ineffective. adam two questions for you. can you help us understand what happens at the fbi when a sitting president invites a domestic extremism group to stand back and stand by?
to restore republican faith in their elections. it goes on, instead of combatting misinformation about fraud, the report encourages the recruitment of staff and volunteers to monitor elections and the development of more aggressive legal strategies to hold election officials accountable for violating the law. willie. what are we doing? this election, by trump s own person, said the 2020 election was the cleanest election ever held. yeah. and all the judges who weighed in, many of them republican, trump-appointed judges, who said there was no election fraud here. they won one case, trump attorneys, among 60 some. in a statement to the paper, the rnc called the report an early draft document that reflects contributions from only a small number of rnc staff. however, top republicans remain concerned. senator john thune, number two republican in the senate told politico in part, any candidate in 24 has a stolen election campaign theme will have the same issues that some of the 22
incompetence and poor judgment. i risked a lot to come forward and speak to the committee and to share the truth about these momentous occasions in history and i think it is really a missed opportunity that the committee did not include that information forefront and center in their report. reporter: they say the january 6th committee missed a real opportunity here. you worked on the committee. do you agree? the report did its job, to show the american public the dangers posed by president trump s multi-layered attack on our democracy. reporter: as for the draft document, he says it includes errors and shouldn t have been released. do you think social media companies fully appreciate the role that they played on january 6th? i don t think so. that lack of awareness of responsibility is stark.
