The investigation reportedly downplayed and misrepresented the shooter's political motives, labeling the incident as a 'suicide by cop' rather than domestic terrorism. Congressional investigators and the House Intelligence Committee have described the FBI's briefing as deceptive and accused the agency of pushing a false narrative and ignoring the anti-GOP terrorist motive. The report highlights alleged false statements and manipulation by the FBI during the probe, raising concerns about politicization within the agency and intelligence community.
