Insurrection Detection

     There is so much frustration and so many unanswered questions surrounding the insurrection at the Capitol on January 6th: Who is the Sedition Bomber? How deeply does the corruption in the Secret Service run, when Mike Pence and Joe Biden agree on not trusting them? Why isn't Donald Trump in handcuffs? Why aren't most of his consiglieres? Why isn't more attention being paid to the role InfoWars played in coordinating and documenting the events at the Capitol?      However, there is also reason for hope.

The founder and leader of the Oath Keepers and the leaders of the Florida and Alabama chapters have been convicted of sedition, as has the president of the North Carolina Proud Boys. Five Proud Boys, including former national chairman Enrique Tarrio, and four more Oath Keepers are currently on trial for the same charge. Of the 50+ trials

Those misdemeanor charges are still pending in the District of Columbia. He will be sentenced in March; he has been detained since September 2021 after he left a threatening note to law enforcement agents and was denied bond as a result.      The January 6th Committee revealed that it will hold its final public meeting, a business meeting in which it will approve its final report and make criminal referrals, on December 19th; it announced last week that its final report will be released on December 21st.       Troy Sargent , a Mass
