Capital Riots Senate Hearing Live-The Need to Update Data Infrastructure?

The Senate Hearing will provide greater insight into the situation that emerged on January 6th, 2021 at the capital and what other factors may be associated with the sacking of one of the securest buildings in the world. Leading up to this situation you could hear the rhetoric developing into a crescendo between both parties; the vote becoming a battle line. What might have caught everyone off guard is how easy it was for a single spark to ignite the kindling that burst into violence. Avoiding that in the future will require Republican (I'm assuming it doesn't need to be broken into Trump and "Old Guard" Republicans) and Democrat action.

As a nation we should keep a watchful eye out for hate behavior so that it doesn't light a match to a much more destructive fire that engulfs the whole house. This is one of the many reasons why its important to adjust state laws to detect and redirect early signs of hate behavior before people coordinate. Michigan has an opportunity to lead the charge if lawmakers find the adjustments important (Its our elected officials responsibility to pass laws that they feel are in the best interest of their state and country). 

I also wonder if there are international actors involved that have the historical skills and the social media ability to spark insurrections in other countries? (👀🤔 😬) Also one might want to know if there was any collusion of stolen information from multiple agents/actors filming with their cell phones documents as they ransacked offices trying to find "proof" of wrongdoing. It almost looks like a strategy to broadcast, capture and reorganize.  American data is way too exposed to foreign entities and smart people who know how to put that data into a framework/method that risks long term national security. Updating our digital infrastructure to better secure data could help maintain national competitiveness on multiple economic, security, and social fronts.
