No Guns Were Recovered During Capitol Riot Arrests

For what has been claimed as an armed insurrection including IEDs, this seems to have been an amateurish performance.

From FBI Official Says No Guns Were Recovered During Capitol Riot Arrests.  

A top FBI counterterrorism official testified on Wednesday that no firearms were recovered during arrests of rioters who breached the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6.

“How many firearms were confiscated in the Capitol or on Capitol grounds during that day?” Wisconsin Sen. Ron Johnson asked Jill Sanborn, the FBI official, during a Senate Homeland Security hearing.

“To my knowledge, we have not recovered any on that day from any other arrests at the scene at this point,” replied Sanborn, who serves as FBI assistant director for counterterrorism.

“I don’t want to speak on behalf of Metro and Capitol police, but, to my knowledge, none,” she added.

As more actual facts emerge, what was claimed to be an armed insurrection increasingly looks likes an instance of bad crowd control.  

 Maybe when all the facts are out there, the story will be different.  For the time being, it looks like mainstream media conducted a partisan media campaign to mislead the public.
