MAGA Declares Vindication After DOJ IG Report on FBI and Jan. 6 Riot​

Yes, it's factual that MAGA declares vindication.

What's not so factual is any evidence to that effect.

Lol, what vindication? The IG cleared the FBI of wrong doing.
IGs are notoriously rubber stamps for wrongdoing. I filed a complaint with the IG of the Defense Department and they said they sent it to the organization and the guy would be given a talking to.

I'm sure you're correct about that but the IG's report is what the OP used to "vindicate" MAGA.

Not all Jan 6th participants participated in criminal activity, 95% were simple attendees without criminal actions
That is a fantasy at the capital.

Wow, castigating an entire department of the government with nary a proof in sight!
What’s “conservative” about tearing down institutional norms?

The system working, is evidence that the system is corrupt?

I have decades of experience confronting wrongdoing in the federal government. But it's not a big secret that federal workers can be difficult to fire.

I would imagine that there are varying levels of discipline available for managers of the various departments and agencies of the Federal Government that fall well short of terminating of this (or that) employee.

I've encountered many situations where people should have been fired but there were zero negative consequences. I've told you about IGs. Congress is pretty ineffective in oversight, people who have been in the executive branch know how to handle those who question their actions, including Congressional inquiries:

“Let me tell you, you take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you,” Schumer told MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow.

Schumer and this comment keeps coming back. It just says it all. A warning of what he in fact knew before it even really got started. And he said it in a manner that it was just the norm.
