3. Not just one...thousands of calls...

Previous reports of Riggleman revealed that there was a call from the White House to an insurrectionist. Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-CA) told CNN on Sunday that the call only lasted 10 seconds and it didn't connect to the insurrectionist, but that the person the White House was calling was in the Capitol at the time.

That wasn't the only call. A number of cell phones belonging to Mark Meadows, Ivanka Trump, Cassidy Hutchinson, and others in the White House were sending and receiving text messages and calls on and around Jan. 6. Riggleman and his team took those calls and texts, and created a kind of data visualization tying each number to each other. It created what he called "The Monster," a line graph that shows startling conduits between Jan. 6 attackers and the White House.

"Six pretty big centers of gravity or six groups that we looked at and really it came down to Trump team, Trump family, rally goers, unaffiliated DOJ charged defendants, Proud Boys and Oath Keepers, and others which are state legislators, alternate electors, things like that," Riggleman told "60 Minutes" on Sunday. "When you have those six groups of people you can look at the connections between them."

As "60 Minutes explained," the thick line represents tens of thousands of calls and contacts between the groups. Riggleman also collected the text messages from Meadows, putting them in a spreadsheet and gathering info about who was reaching out to Meadows.

it is no surprise that Mark Meadows was Trump's key man, the person who kept Trump's hands clean. Meadows was involved in the insurrection, in the plot to steal voting machines, in the theft of classified documents. DOJ should have known this 8 months ago, Meadows should have been before a grand jury 8 months ago. The pyramid strategy has been one big failure.

When we hear about Meadows going before a grand jury then we will know that Garland has made up his mind to indict Trump.

Go Letitia, Go Fani.

The next J6 public event will just be another big slap in the face to DOJ, As Adam Schiff said last night, DOJ has been slow to act.
