I agree with Wray's statements. As he said, they are looking further up the command chain to find where the money is coming from. I don't agree with the BLM movement (or I should say that its attention is misplaced), but the majority of the violence was done by people and groups looking to cause trouble. Some for pay and some because certain people just want to watch the world burn (and help it along). Don't confuse anarchists with anarco-capitalists. Looting was done by the dregs of society helping themselves at the opportunity.

Excellent points. Wray is merely letting us know that the investigations have discovered, and are continuing to disccover. We can look to the reports of the arrests (since 6 Jan, and last year) to see how the FBI got its information.

(Typical knee-jerk responders on Saidit - like RightousBob - and those who've agreed with him in this thread - don't really understand what happened and how it's been investigated.)

Wray talked about the January 6th riot at this hearing as well, but I was referring the BLM riots of last year.

Wray said “While we’re equal opportunity in looking for violent extremism of any ideology, we have not, to date, seen any evidence of anarchist violent extremists or people subscribing to antifa in connection with the 6th. That doesn’t mean we’re not looking, and will continue to look. But at the moment, we have not seen that.”

This is one example of why that isn't true. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/anti-trump-activist-entered-capitol-wednesday If you look at the videos from inside the Capitol, you can see Sullivan interacting with others that he clearly knows. There was also a small group filmed before the breach changing into pro-Trump clothing. There were both pro-Trumpers and Antifa type instigators at that event.

He's too dumb to see the Antifa leader that sold video from inside the capitol...

Nah, he's not dumb, but I don't know what angle they are playing. Seems like good ol' boy politics, deep state, or whatever you want to call it.
