In reference to the January 6 United States Capitol attack, the Donald Trump article currently says, According to the Department of Justice, more than 140 police officers were injured, and five people, including a Capitol Police officer, died.

Should the causes of death be listed?
Should the article explicitly mention the Capitol Police officer?

Talk:Durham special counsel investigation

Should the current lead sentence...

The report concluded the FBI had showed confirmation bias and a "serious lack of analytical rigor" toward the information they received, especially information the FBI received from politically affiliated persons and entities.

be amended to include this bold content...

The report concluded the FBI had showed confirmation bias and a "serious lack of analytical rigor" toward the information they received, especially information the FBI received from politically affiliated persons and entities. Durham asserted this information "in part triggered" the Crossfire Hurricane investigation, echoing a ~~disproved~~ conspiracy theory promoted by Trump supporters.

This question is rooted in what Charlie Savage exclusively reported in The New York Times:

Mr. Durham went beyond criticizing the wiretap applications, writing: "Our investigation also revealed that senior F.B.I. personnel displayed a serious lack of analytical rigor toward the information that they received, especially information received from politically affiliated persons and entities. This information in part triggered and sustained Crossfire Hurricane and contributed to the subsequent need for Special Counsel Mueller’s investigation."

But in using the word "triggered," Mr. Durham’s report echoed a conspiracy theory pushed by supporters of Mr. Trump that the F.B.I. opened the investigation in July 2016 based on the so-called Steele dossier, opposition research indirectly funded by the Clinton campaign that was later discredited.[1]

~~The NYT does not use the word "disproved" but that can be readily sourced if this edit is ultimately adopted.~~

This matter has been previously discussed in this Talk thread. soibangla (talk) 15:47, 2 June 2023 (UTC)
