Detail about the actual investigations or acts committed?
To get the details about the actual events of January 6, it took Republicans taking over the House in order to release those actual details. The right is not the only faction that wants to tear down corrupt institutions and rebuild from scratch. In case it escaped your notice, this is what Nicole Hannah Jones and the 1619 project is all about. If the FBI arrests more blacks than whites, this is proof of systemic racism in our institutions. According to Ibrahm X. Kenadi, laws that result in disparate outcomes between races must be struck down and replaced. The police must be defunded and the savings spent on more welfare. After all, if people didn't have to work for money, they'd have no reason to steal money.
Since DocCam has posted something negative about a nonwhite person in Vivek Ramesay, that makes him a racist xenophobe according to the left's own rules.
You obviously haven't more than the foggiest notion about what the 1619 project is all about nor about real, verifiable history nor more recent archaeological and anthropological findings concerning the Americas and how their discovery transformed both the Americas and the rest of the world for both good and ill. I highly recommend you read
1491, New Revelations of the Americas Before Columbus and it's sequel,
1493, Uncovering the New World Columbus Created] by Charles C. Mann. You probably won't, though, because many of the facts related in those books will uncomfortably puncture the bubble of your bigoted, racist worldview.
For example: did you know that the vast Amazon basin was once heavily populated by widespread, highly advanced and organized agricultural societies, older and more advanced in some ways than contemporary European and Eurasian civilizations and which actually thrived clear up to about 1491, when Columbus first "discovered" the Americas, and which were devastatingly decimated within the next century or so by second hand exposure (probably via the Incas, who had extensive trade relations with the Amazonian cultures, and who were first exposed by the conquistador Pizarro and his people) to European diseases to which they had little immunity? So rapid and thorough was this decimation and so rapidly did the prolific Amazon rainforest cover up and obliterate the remains of their culture that the few survivors were reduced to a few scattered hunter-gatherer tribes by the time Europeans really penetrated the Amazon basin and began to systematically explore it. This led the renowned Scholar, Allan R. Holmberg, to mistakenly conclude, in 1942, when he was a doctoral student, that there had never been any humans more advanced than the primitive hunter-gatherer tribes in the Amazon basin than the primitive hunter gatherers he lived among and studied from about 1940 to 1942. This is now famously (or infamously?) known as
"Holmberg's Mistake."No precept or claim is more suspect or more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.
