Allegedly, the multiple divisions of the DHS Office of Intelligence identified potential threats but did not release the information to outside offices or other authorities prior to January 6th, instead opting to share the information with partners in the DC area. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian discuss on The Young Turks. Watch LIVE weekdays 68 pm ET.

"The Department of Homeland Security intelligence division had identified “specific” threats related to January 6, 2021, prior to the attack on the US Capitol, but did not widely share any intelligence it had gathered until two days after the riot, according to a new watchdog report.
The DHS Office of Inspector General found that three different divisions within the Trump-era DHS Office of Intelligence and Analysis had either collected intelligence or identified potential violent threats and did not release that information in reports outside the department prior to January 6 – instead emailing threat information to local Washington, DC, partners before the attack in a way that was “not as widely disseminated” as its usual intelligence products. Such threats, the report said, included storming the Capitol, targeting politicians and law enforcement and “sacrificing their lives while conducting violence.”
Because of the lapse in information sharing, DHS “was unable to provide its many state, local and Federal partners with timely, actionable and predictive intelligence,” the report found."
