If you’ve ever read a privacy policy, you may have noticed a section that says something about how your data will be shared with law enforcement, which means if the police demand it and have the necessary paperwork, they’ll likely get it. But maybe, like most American adults, you don’t read privacy policies very carefully if at all. In that case, you might be surprised to learn how much of your data is in the hands of third parties, how much access law enforcement has to it, how it might be used against you, or what your rights are — if any — to prevent it.
Many of the Capitol insurrectionists might be discovering this now, as cases against them are built with evidence taken from internet services like Facebook and Google. While they left a trail of digital evidence for investigators (and internet detectives) to follow, not all of that data was publicly available. If you read through cases of people charged with crimes relating to the events in Washington on January 6, you’ll find the FBI also obtained internal records from various social media platforms and mobile phone carriers.
Customers are calling for a boycott of Bank of America, after a report that the bank handed over the account information of hundreds of innocent people in connection with the Jan. 6 deadly riots at the Capitol.
At the request of the FBI, the country’s second-largest bank allegedly snooped through information of anyone making certain purchases in and around Washington before and after the riots, and handed over the information of 211 people, according to Fox News’ Tucker Carlson.
Jan. 6 deadly riots at the Capitol.

"Deadly riots"? No honest news would phrase those protests that way.

Bbbbbbut 4 Capitol police officers have killed themselves in the months after January! Allegedly.
I wonder just what they considered a dangerous weapon.
Liz Cheney Leading Pelosi’s Weaponized Jan. 6 Committee Tells All You Need To Know About The Partisan Probe
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi erased any mirage of bipartisanship when she barred House Republicans Jim Jordan of Ohio and Jim Banks of Indiana from participation.

Seven months later, Democrats have wasted no opportunity to exploit the January crisis at the U.S. Capitol, gaslighting the public at every turn to brand the riot as the “worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War,” in President Joe Biden’s words. Among the latest to perpetuate the Democrat talking point was Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, who will offer opening remarks as one of two Republicans on the January 6 committee scheduled to commence this morning.
“Congress is obligated to conduct a full investigation of the most serious attack on our Capitol since 1814,” Cheney said when tapped for the committee by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
Never mind the 1954 raid by Puerto Rican nationalists who shot five congressmen, the 1983 Senate bombing by left-wing militants granted clemency by Democrats, the al-Qaeda terrorists who flew a plane into the Pentagon on 9/11, or the summer of rage last year that frequently perpetuated political violence in the nation’s capital and repeated it across the country.
In fact, the carnage in the capital last summer excused, endorsed, and encouraged by Democrats and their allies in legacy media was far worse than the riot on January 6 by nearly every metric. More than 30 people died while dozens, if not hundreds, more livelihoods went with them when businesses were destroyed, and the dollar cost far exceeded, by 66 times, the already inflated estimate of the damage to the Capitol.

If it wasn't an organized plot, then there was no "insurrection." If there was no insurrection, then they've been trying to fire up a "domestic war on terror" over some trespassers and vandals.

"The FBI at this point believes the violence was not centrally coordinated by far-right groups or prominent supporters of Donald Trump."
The only thing more deranged than claiming Russia had taken over control of the US through blackmail is calling January 6 an "Insurrection."

THIS is a coup attempt:

Now, if Trump had incited disaffected elements in the military, or a bunch of armed right-wing militia kooks, to militarily attack and take the Capital, and they had arrested/and/or shot various of the legislators, and Trump had gone on TV and made some speech announcing that he was declaring the Insurrection Act and claiming sole governing authority, and had said something like "at my command, a band of patriots has ousted the non-representative Congress who falsely acclaimed the 'stolen election'" and then maybe added that Biden and other Democrats were being arrested etc etc, then this would be a coup attempt. Especially if elements of the Armed Forces announced their support for Trump.
This is another coup attempt:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1981_Spanish_coup_d'%C3%A9tat_attempt In addition to the armed military seizure of Congress, tanks were ordered into the streets by the Army high command in Valencia. This was a coup attempt, and the King had to intervene to stop it.
This is another coup attempt:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tanquetazo (the failed coup attempt in Chile before the successful Pinochet coup; loyalist elements of the Army under General Carlos Prats put it down)
so, really, this is just a bunch of hysterical bullshit by liberal Democrats to characterize the affair at the Capitol as "an attempted coup"
I say this in the interest of historical accuracy
