Welcome back. Despite a lack of evidence, the FBI performed more than a dozen searches of raw foreign intelligence data related to people believed to be involved in the Capitol riot to hunt for foreign ties, according to a heavily redacted opinion of the secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court.
FBI analysts also searched for information related to 133 people arrested in the aftermath of the protests prompted by the killing of Floyd, a Black man who died pleading for his life while a white Minneapolis police officer knelt on his neck for more than nine minutes. Due to redactions in the opinion, it wasn’t clear whether the searches related to individuals protesting racism and police brutality, or to counterprotesters.
Other searches included donors to an unnamed congressional campaign, defense contractors, holders of security clearances, and people who appeared in police homicide reports, “including victims, next-of-kin, witnesses and suspects.” Read the WSJ story.
