NBC News: The FBI has charged Riley Williams with her role in the Capitol riot.

The FBI says she told a former partner that she intended to take a laptop / hard drive stolen from Pelosi's office, ship it to Russia, where a friend would turn it over to the SVR -- Russian intel.
The FBI says they spoke with Williams’ mother on Saturday and she allegedly said, “she recognized her daughter inside the U.S. Capitol Building and that her daughter had taken a sudden interest in President Trump’s politics and “far right message boards.”
The charging document says, “according to W1, the transfer of the computer device to Russia fell through for unknown reasons and WILLIAMS still has the computer device or destroyed it.”

The FBI agent on the case says the matter remains under investigation.

The head of NYPD's counterterrorism unit says he rejects the notion that what happened at the U.S. Capitol on January 6th was an intelligence failure saying that at this moment the domestic terror threat may be “more dangerous” than the threat of foreign terrorism to the US.
NYPD Deputy Commissioner for Intelligence and Counterterroism John Miller, in an interview for the @TODAYshow says, “a lot of people are asking ‘well was this an intelligence failure’, it wasn't an intelligence failure, the intelligence was there.”
@TODAYshow Miller talked about the pre-January 6th intelligence saying, “what we passed on to the Capitol Police was largely tracking with what the Capitol Police and the D.C. police were seeing from other agencies.”

NBC News: Multiple senior law enforcement officials tell NBC News they are searching the home of Anthony Quinn Warner, 63, of Antioch, TN in connection with the Nashville bombing on Christmas Day.

Reported w/ Mike Kosnar and @anblanx
A Google street view image of Warner's address shows an RV in the backyard which closely matches the image of the RV police say was involved in the blast.

According to our NBC affiliate @WSMV that vehicle is no longer in that backyard.
Those senior law enforcement officials say they are trying to determine whether or not Warner was responsible for the explosion in Nashville near an AT&T building.

Key sections:
"While serious allegations should be handled with great care, specious, speculative, fanciful or far-fetched claims should not be a basis for initiating federal inquiries." 1/2)
@PeteWilliamsNBC "Nothing here should be taken as any indication that the Department has concluded that voting irregularities have impacted the outcome of any
election." (2/2)
@PeteWilliamsNBC Re: "substantial irregularities" full quote:

"I authorize you to pursue substantial allegations of voting and vote tabulation irregularities prior to the certification of elections in your jurisdictions in certain cases, as I have already done in specific instances."

NEW: Federal prosecutors acknowledge that dates written on former FBI officials Pete Strozk and Andy McCabe's notes were not written by them.

Instead, they say the dates were estimated dates created by a review team and attached by post-it notes and inadvertently scanned in.
As you may recall, in the past few weeks Strozk and MCabe have raised concerns that dates appeared on their handwritten notes filed in the Flynn case that they say they never wrote.

Today, prosecutors acknowledged they were right, they didn't write in those dates.
The prosecutors say it was FBI agents assigned to the Eastern District of Missouri who attached the dates via post-it note as "estimated dates" and then the documents were scanned at FBI headquarters without taking the post-it notes off first.

NEW: Two notorious political operatives, Jacob Wohl and Jack Burkman, have been charged by the Michigan Attorney General in connection with an alleged orchestration of robocalls which the AG's office says was an attempt to suppress the vote.

They each face 4 felony counts.
If convicted the two could face as many as 7 years in prison.
The Michigan AG alleges the calls were orchestrated by the duo in New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Illinois “all of which reported similar robocalls being made to residents in their states who live in urban areas with significant minority populations.”
