Apparently at least one prominent group made public weeks ago that violence was planned at the Capitol. Specific violence to place members of congress under "citizens arrest". I expect to see congressional hearings about this. It's really hard to fathom they were unprepared if the planning was done right out in the open.

Everyone thought "the next time I'll do something, someone else will catch this in some other office".
I get why, its political and touches on censorship and people rightly hesitate to use power (not the law enforcement side, that's their job). Plus you're making money from ads next to pages of QAnon or Stopthesteal or whatever other BS is there.
But that's just my opinion. As you say, we should have a real investigation with witnesses and experts and actual factz. Congresd is the right place for that to happen imho
I hope something actually comes of this. It would be shameful for it to be buried because its hard and no one wants to be less able to mobalise theirside...
