- **Published:** 2022-06-12

In 1971, the Weather Underground, a radical left-wing group led by Bill Ayers, bombed the U.S. Capitol building. The explosion caused significant damage to a Senate restroom and a nearby barber shop, destroying a priceless stained-glass mosaic. Unlike the response to the January 6th events, the Capitol was reopened to the public almost immediately following the 1971 attack.

The impeachment trial concluded without calling witnesses after a brief dispute involving Representative Jaime Herrera Beutler and Kevin McCarthy. Historical precedents for Capitol protests are cited, including 2008 homeless rights advocates and 2018 anti-Kavanaugh protesters. House managers Eric Swalwell and Stacey Plaskett are criticized for their presentation styles during the proceedings.

- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1310-quiet-riot/chapter/january-6-capitol-protest-media-coverage-discrepancies.md

Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak analyze the events of January 7, 2021, at the U.S. Capitol. They compare the "bland" reality seen on C-SPAN to the "hand-wringing" narratives on CNN and MSNBC. The discussion suggests the breach was a "setup" similar to events in Ukraine, noting that many participants appeared to be invited in by police and remained within roped lines.

### FBI Arrest of Amin al-Khalifi in Capitol Bomb Plot

- **Episode:** [384: No Specific Plot](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/384-no-specific-plot.md)
- **Published:** 2012-02-19
- **Time:** 52:36–1:02:18
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/384-no-specific-plot/chapter/fbi-arrest-of-amin-al-khalifi-in-capitol-bomb-plot.md

The FBI arrested Amin al-Khalifi, a Moroccan national, for an alleged plot to detonate a suicide vest at the U.S. Capitol. Critics argue the "lone wolf" narrative is undermined by the FBI's year-long involvement in providing the suspect with a fake vest and conducting a test detonation in a West Virginia quarry.
