Kidnappings and killings to provide a basis for invoking the Insurrection Act was the goal, I believe.

Yes, it sounds outrageous, and it was.

with some other guy about election security. Wray didn't make eye contact with the camera or the press, took no questions. He did wiggle his head quite a lot. I took it to mean 'strictly by the book', and something was up. He's a good guy whose doing his job. I don't doubt Biden is fine with him.

Operatives had a cover of confusion and mayhem. Nothing's been said about the stolen laptops. Wow would those be of interest to many evil players around the world.

I never watch Wolf, but I did see him yesterday, and he does indeed look quite angry about the insurrection, as one would expect

The plot failed because too many rioters showed up. The mass confusion, people milling about and rampaging through the building disrupted the plans.

the plot actually did their jobs and got Pence and Pelosi out while others locked doors and resisted the attackers long enough for people inside to take cover.

The vast number of persons who overwhelmed security probably hampered the guys with real plans and gave security more time to get Congress & staff to safety.
