Our live video with Frank Figliuzzi and Chris Sampson (NatSecMedia / The Wire Tap) sits down for a powerful, firsthand discussion on the events leading up to the January 6 attack on the United States Capitol—and the dangerous effort now underway to rewrite what happened.
Both men were tracking extremist networks before the insurrection, warning publicly that violence was coming. In this conversation, they break down:
The early warning signs in 2020
How extremist groups like the Oath Keepers and Proud Boys mobilized
The role of disinformation and “call-and-response” radicalization
Why seditious conspiracy cases mattered—and what happens if they’re erased
The collapse of deterrence when accountability disappears
The growing pressure on journalists, prosecutors, and investigators
What this moment means for the future of democracy
Broadcast live from Ukraine and America—under the shadow of ongoing war—Sampson offers a stark perspective: a country under bombardment watching another drift toward instability from within. Frank Figliuzzi offers personal experience on the stress the institutions are undergoing because of the corruption of Donald Trump and his associates.
This is not just a retrospective. It’s a warning.
