Solomon joined Fox News' Maria Bartiromo on Sunday to discuss the developments in Durham's case, including the observation that Durham likely could indict more people, but that he's going to have to get permission from Biden's Justice Department in order to do so.

Also, CBS News investigative reporter noted that fired FBI Director James Comey may have been less than honest with Congress in previous testimony:

Time will tell how all of the shakes out, but one thing seems clear by now: There wasn't just a little bit of rule- and lawbreaking associated with Obama spying on Trump's campaign.

There was a lot of it.

The Oath Keepers began readying for violence as early as last November, authorities say. Communications show the group discussing logistics, weapons and training, including "2 days of wargames."

"I need you fighting fit" by the inauguration, one Ohio member, Jessica Watkins, told a recruit in November, according to court documents. "If Biden becomes president our way of life as we know it is over. Our Republic would be over. Then it is our duty as Americans to fight, kill and die for our rights," she said in another message later that month.

As Jan. 6 neared, they discussed stationing a "quick reaction force" outside Washington that could bring in weapons "if something goes to hell," according to court documents. Days before the attack, one man suggested getting a boat to ferry "heavy weapons" across the Potomac River into their "waiting arms."

"I believe we will have to get violent to stop this," that man, Thomas Caldwell of Virginia, said in a November message to Watkins. On Jan. 1, he took to Facebook to decry what he viewed as a rigged election, saying "we must smite them now and drive them down," authorities say.

There were plans for some Oath Keepers to be there in "grey man" mode without identifiable militia gear so they could blend in with the crowd.

"For every Oath Keeper you see, there are at least two you don't see," said a Jan. 4 email sent to members.

As the mob swarmed the Capitol, Stewart Rhodes, the leader of the Oath Keepers, was communicating with some of the alleged rioters.

"All I see Trump doing is complaining. I see no intent by him to do anything. So the patriots are taking it into their own hands. They've had enough," he said in a Signal message to a group around 1:40 p.m., authorities say. A little later, Rhodes, who has not been charged in the attack, instructed the group to "come to South Side of Capitol on steps."

Around 2:40 p.m., members of a military-style "stack" who moved up Capitol stairs in a line entered the building through a door on the east side, authorities say. Lawmakers and Vice President Mike Pence had been evacuated from the House and Senate chambers just about 20 minutes earlier.

"We are in the mezzanine. We are in the main dome right now. We are rocking it. They are throwing grenades, they are fricking shooting people with paint balls. But we are in here," Watkins declared over a channel called Stop the Steal J6 on the walkie-talkie app Zello.

"Get it, Jess. ... Everything we (expletive) trained for," someone responded, according to the communications obtained by WNYC's "On the Media" program and detailed in court documents.

Caldwell, who did not join the stack, climbed up to the west side balcony, authorities say.
"We are surging forward, doors breached," he said in a Facebook message about 10 minutes after the group went inside, according to court documents. Roughly 15 minutes later he sent another message: "Inside."

Caldwell received a Facebook message saying "all members are in the tunnels under capital seal them in," authorities said. "Turn on gas," the message said.

Hours after the siege, Caldwell was already talking about another attack "at the local level," authorities say.

"If we'd had guns I guarantee we would have killed 100 politicians. They ran off and were spirited away through their underground tunnels like the rats they were," Caldwell said in a message to a friend.

Tucker Carlson earned the ire of some on the left for saying something truly radical: that maybe pregnant women should be involved in a combat zone/be fighting wars.

Now I suggested when I wrote about this story that perhaps they were trying to adjust flight suits for people that weren't actually going into combat, who perhaps were performing tasks on the ground. But then listen to their response, they don't even address the question raised about a heavily pregnant woman fighting, which was the question, they immediately claim the remarks are sexist and claimed he was mocking women in the military. Obviously the DOD authorized them to respond, in and of itself, unprecedented not to mention them factually being wrong.

[...]

As people observed, fighting with a Fox host and writing Buzzfeed headlines will really convince people that they're very professional and there isn't a problem here at all.

They're literally more antagonistic to a Fox host than they are to China, about whom they and we should be concerned.

But Tucker Carlson also noticed the story and will have a few things to say about their completely unprofessional response which basically proves the point he was making.

It should be a barn burner of a response, so break out the popcorn, it promises to be epic.

Fox host Tucker Carlson returned fire after the Pentagon launched a "large and coordinated" PR blitz against his show over criticism that the military may be too "feminine," saying the DOD has no place attacking a US news outlet.

"Since when does the Pentagon declare war on a domestic news operation? I can't remember that ever happening," Carlson said on a segment of his show on Thursday night, adding "This is genuinely worrisome. The Department of Defense has never been more aggressively or openly political."

The US Marines attack Tucker Carlson, critics, forced to walk back comments with apologies
Ian Miles Cheong, March 14 2021

The US military has done more to discredit itself by attacking Fox News' Tucker Carlson than twenty years of military failures in the Middle East.

...

Following some back-and-forth on social media, the US Marines II MEF Information Group published its own statement to condemn Carlson, a civilian, with a photograph of a female soldier lifting another trooper on her back.

"What it looks like in today's armed forces @TuckerCarlson," remarked the official government account. "Get it right before you get left, boomer"

The military account followed up its remarks with an attack on critics who told it to "please focus on China and not Tucker Carlson," stating, "Come back when you've served and been pregnant." Numerous military veterans chimed in to condemn the military account following its remarks, prompting several apologies.
