Sure this story is not fron The Babylon Bee?

Backlash (though very mild) from the left:
https://www.foxnews.com/media/hillary-clinton-nancy-pelosi-russiagateHearing these two women converse is a terrible experience -- terrible to the senses, the mind, the soul! Terrible! My ears! My brain!!
Gonna call them the Nattering Nabobettes from now on -- assuming an ungentle universe subjects us to another such hideosity.

The full Podcast episode:
Skip to somewhere around the 16:15 mark to lead into the "9/11-type commission" and the "Putin" reference. The speculation that Trump "worked with Putin" is overwrought but the point about Trump and his supporters unwittingly played into Putin's hands is probably fair. It's not hard to imagine Putin rubbing his hands in glee as he learns that the US Capitol has been run over by a mob.
As for what level of investigation is warranted, this does not rise to the "9/11" level but it certainly exceeds the "Benghazi" level. Whatever the parallels, I do want to see thorough investigation of the incident.

Yes everything is overdetermined, if not overwrought. It's how we can all be pretending to make reasonable points.
You want an investigation into why a few imbeciles decided to walk into the Capitol? Really? You think it required a mastermind? It only required some people who noticed that the Capitol was unguarded. You may as well launch an investigation into why graffiti under your favorite bridge happens.

Or maybe we can investigate why it is that nothingburgers have nothinglettuce and nothingketchup on them.

Undoubtedly. It especially plays as a powerful distractor for the Russian public to demonstrate just how good things are at home compared to the effete and liberal West. From what I can gather, the annual Russian budget to conduct cyber disinformation attacks on US social media targets is approximately the cost of an F-35B (USD 115 million). Creating mayhem in the US through social media platforms is very beneficial to Putin . When incidents occur like what happened 6 January in Washington, it is a propaganda dividend in gold.

So who here disagrees that the Capitol raid played to the American left and to Putin?

Certainly it played to the left in the headlines, obviously.
In our pocketbooks? Yes, it will be used as an excuse to spend money, the current security presence around DC for example.
At the ballot box? Maybe, maybe not. At the moment the blame goes 100% to one man who might not be on any more ballots.
