Chris Wray's explanation of why the FBI's Jan. 6 probe differs from the bureau's response to last summer's riots is worth a watch. His main (somewhat obvious) points:

1) An attack on the U.S. Capitol triggers more federal laws.

2) The Jan. 6 crowd gave the FBI a lot of layups.

deemed sufficient to warrant criminal charges. He was arrested in February 2020, and, after a delay due to COVID, later convicted.

His sentencing hearing was already delayed once. Hopefully today justice is done.
