Rep. Carolyn B. Maloney, House Committee on Oversight and Reform chair, on Thursday requested the FBI to investigate the social media platform Parler and any role it may have played in the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol. The New York Democrat wrote a letter to FBI Director Christopher A. Wray to ask that he investigate Parler, which was a platform that became popular with Trump supporters that felt unwelcome on larger social media apps such as Twitter and Facebook. “I am writing to request that as part of its comprehensive investigation of the January 6 assault on the Capitol, the Federal Bureau

oooh, the Secret Police - Thought Police are already hard at work.
Too bad they didn't have a full-blown inauguration and parties. Then they'd be so hung over it would be a couple more days before the reign of terror starts.

I saw nothing of the kind. Just encouragement to be there and guidance about closed stuff (bring food).

The correct spelling is Carolyn M. Baloney. Something she is full of.

Comrade Baloney illustrates how things will go for at least the next two years. Hopefully by 2022 the Dems will have overreached so badly (as is their m.o.) that Repubs will retake the house. Of course that doesn't mean anything different will happen then but Baloney won't be chair anyway.

If they really wanted answers, they would ask an HONEST investigatory agency to investigate the Antifa planning of it on Twitter and Facebook, and to investigate the FIB instigators that got them to do it.

'Trump supporters that felt unwelcome on Twitter or Facebook'..... Really, Baloney? You need to herd them all over where the computer geeks can control what they can say or do!

Try to keep up, Rep. Maloney. The media have already reported that various leftist/antifa/BLM groups planned the whole thing on FACEBOOK. The "insurrection" before President Trump finished speaking.

That didn't take long -- democrats trying to use the federal government to silence it's opposition. Remember Lois Lerner as one example. She is still free and getting her pension from we the people.

that will be acted upon with due dispatch by the once great investigative arm of the United States of America criminal justice system, we can all be sure of that but the funny thing is they can't find the Antifa and BLM people who are responsible for committing death and mayhem on the streets of our country for the past 6 months or so.

I want the FBI to obtain and release those Pakistani recordings they did of the 40 Democrats they served as IT specialists for. Where are those thumb drives and laptops?

I know that personal appearance is not a basis of judging someone, or relevant in any way.
BUT, having said that, I warn all my fellow L-Dotters: Do NOT, for the love of G-d, ever look at any photo of Carolyn Maloney. If there was plastic surgery, it went WAY wrong. Again, don't look; think of a pillar of salt, or turning to stone [hat tip E.L.O.]

Carolyn Baloney is nothing but an upper West side Bolshevik.

The agency that probably planned and coordinated the attack in order to oust the meddling outsider President Trump will no doubt perform a fair and impartial investigation and prove that yes, Parler is to blame. Besides, Twitter doesn't like the competition.
