1. Chris Wray on Jan 6: "This is a very ongoing investigation and there's a lot more to come." "I would expect to see more charges — some of them maybe more serious charges."
2. If there are presently dozens of people charged with violations of 18 USC 1512(c) (Obstructing Congress) that carries up to 20 years in prison, what could FBI Director Wray be thinking of when he says, "more serious charges?" What other crumbs were in his testimony?
3. The US Criminal Code Title 18 USC. Chapter 115 addresses what I refer to as disloyalty crimes, including crimes like treason, insurrection, seditious conspiracy and advocating overthrow. Thus far, I've seen no charges for any of disloyalty crimes related to Jan 6.
4. Are the Chapter 115 disloyalty crimes "more serious" than 1512(c)? Other than treason, not in terms of prison time. I don't think Chapter 115 is what Wray's talking about. Director Wray also made it clear that he would refer to the crimes as domestic terrorism.
5. But there's no crime of domestic terrorism.
In the Proud Boys' detention litigation, the Govt. disclosed that it is alleging the crimes were terrorism. But to charge it, I think there has to be an FTO involved. And I'm still watching for a Russian involvement in the attack.

6. We listed the Russian hate group RIM in April 2020. We've seen the Trump administration use agents like Rudy Giuliani to conduct a shadow foreign policy with Russian intelligence agents. Could that result in "more serious charges" than 20 years in prison?
7. Both TFG and Giuliani are blabbermouthed nitwits. One had access to all our top secrets. The other has access to the other nitwit. Our privacy constrained FBI was unable to spot all these first-time terrorists, meaning that they were not under FISA surveillance.
8. But the FSB and SVR would have no such privacy concerns and may have obtained evidence of the coming attack. We know that members of Congress get caught by FISA. Even if they had nothing to do with the attack at the inception, by Jan 6 I would expect the Russians had a plan.
9. First they would want intelligence. They could easily conduct electronic surveillance on know domestic terror groups like the Proud Boys who were publicly shown to have connections with the White House and therefore quite likely under Kremlin surveillance.
10. Wray appears intent on focusing on the terrorism angle, rather than purely domestic politics related disloyalty crimes. By focusing on terrorism, Wray accomplishes one thing that may be significant. He makes it about an attack by a foreign terrorist organization that our
11. IC is tasked to conduct active ongoing surveillance on under FISA. Did any members of the #45 White House or GQP Senate or House communicate with and or seek assistance from the Russian intelligence services? Nah. Nevermind. Who would be that big a nitwit?
