Several congressional committees and a task force set up by Pelosi are looking into it. But the IG's investigation, which is expected to continue for several months, has already issued these two interim reports of shocking negligence.

We all suspect inside collusion, and I hope they find it. But most of the revelations are going to be documentation of every bit as damning of the amazing ongoing lack of training, failure of intelligence gathering, and just the many, many, many ways this institution dreadfully failed to do its job.

Victims include all those Capitol policemen who fought desperately and heroically for hours AFTER the initial 17 desperate calls for backup in just 78 minutes. Bet no one's ripping the leadership like they are.
