Page 40 - Security Failures News Today

This report is the scope. it is so limited in scope. it talks just about the security failures regarding capitol police. it doesnt really talk about the department of homeland security, the department of justice which refused to comply with information requests on this report and of course it doesnt talk about the executive branch, the former president trump and his role in this. so in many ways while we get a clearer understanding of what happened as far as security is concerned on that day, we...

Doesnt look at the root causes of the attack and doesnt use the word insurrection to refer to the attack, and what then -- what purpose does this report then serve? >> thats an excellent question, jeff. the committees that did this report, the republicans and democrats on the committees say it was to look at the intelligence and the security failures to the leadup and on the day of january 6th, and the intent of the report is to be very limited in scope. they didnt go into it thinking they were ...

One thing they pount out is there a period when they should have had had authorization to deploy and didnt end up heading to the capitol for about 25 minutes. so a lot of confusion. this is not a substitute for the commission. kate? >> thats right. whitney wild. and its like two things, right? the security failures, the intelligence failures and then kind of the political -- the politics of seeped in. this bipartisan, because of this report is booup, there is no nengs of donald trumps role, one ...

A bipartisan report released by the senate homeland security and government affairs committee that exam ups security failures and a lack of preparation that failed to anticipate and stop the violence. the report concludes that capitol police were aware of the potential for violence on january 6th, that intelligence agencies failed to interpret that threat from a wide range of online chatter and there was a lack of communication between agencies about the extent of the threat. >> it really was a ...

Other republican as he lays down these markers and many are afraid to disagree. >> the question for republicans is what do they plan to do about it? especially as recent polls show a slim majority of republican voters actually do believe the election was stolen. there have been several opportunities for republicans to really challenge trump even after the insurrection, 147 house republicans still voted to overturn the election even after the house once again impeached him for inciting the riots ...

Do or not to do in terms of mobilizing the national guard. can senators claim this addresses the security failures if they dont answer that question as to what the president was doing or not doing that day? >> absolutely. and having not seen the report yet, i dont know what exactly is in it, but if its not addressing what was being done inside that white house, which we still do not have a full picture of, i might add, its not going to answer the questions and fully address the concerns about ho...

Do. its going to be a report more than 100 pages long. well have key recommendations here. but only its going to spawn a further fight on what congress should do about this. >> wont address a key question. what did trump do, say, or not do and say including the pentagon on january 6th in terms of the response? manu raju, thank you very much. lets bring in white house reporter for the "wall street journal" and cnn political analyst. sabrina, how can this be a substantive investigation of security...

Were voting against the commission, one of the reasons they gave is there were other reports coming out and in progress in the senate. this was one of those reports and has nothing to do with the causes leading -- as far as we know, nothing to do with the causes leading up to this which will not satisfy a lot of people on the other side of the aisle and a lot of americans who do have questions about what happened and how to prevent this. and for people who were victimized by the people that stor...

On it in a very, very dangerous way, which is why it is important for us to keep shining a light on it. in context, but keep the light on it. >> if he was talking to the portraits at nar lago, we could roll our eyes and ignore it. >> exactly. >> we now know, a lot of people raise flags about this, but now we know from january 6th that potential action of all of this, why again you have to watch what the former president says and you have this, why isnt there an independent bipartisan commission....
