FBI and Homeland Security ignored ‘massive amount’ of intelligence before Jan. 6
By MARY CLARE JALONICK
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) — The FBI and the Department of
Homeland Security downplayed or ignored “a massive
amount of intelligence information” ahead of the Jan. 6,
2021, attack on the U.S Capitol, according to the chair-
man of a Senate panel that on Tuesday released a new
report on the intelligence failures ahead of the insurrec-
tion.
The report details how the agencies failed to recognize
and warn of the potential for violence as some of then-
President Donald Trump’s supporters openly planned the
siege in messages and forums online.
Among the multitude of intelligence that was overlooked
was a December 2020 tip to the FBI that members of
the far-right extremist group Proud Boys planned to be
in Washington, D.C., for the certification of Joe Biden’s
victory and their “plan is to literally kill people,” the report
said.
