AOC Tells FBI’s Wray the Capitol Riot Was Planned on Parler, Telegram

EXCERPT:

OCASIO-CORTEZ: "Director Wray, we now know that the attacks were planned out in the open on popular social media platforms like Parler and Telegram. Among thousands of violent messages, there were messages saying, 'If they certify Biden, we will storm Capitol Hill, executions on the steps.' Also, wide social media activity included posts discussing specific details ahead of the attack, ranging from maps with layouts of the Capitol Complex and construction plans for the gallows. During the Judiciary Committee hearing, Director Wray, you noted that none of the more than 500 people charged so far have been previously under FBI investigation. Does the FBI regularly include social media monitoring as part of its efforts to combat violent extremism?"
