Our system of government is built on trust. It is our duty to safeguard that trust.
By now it’s clear that federal law enforcement had some degree of infiltration among the crowds gathered at the Capitol on January 6. Intelligence reports released publicly days before the incident indicated “militias” and loosely organized groups of individuals intended to act violently that day. It’s unlikely those reports were based solely on Parler posts.
Based on the available camera footage, it appears that key individuals were leading the assaults on protected points of entry. One prominent militia leader, Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes, appears to have actively planned and directed individuals both on the day of the incident and in the days leading up to it. Yet he remains a free man. This is in drastic contrast to the dozens of Americans currently being denied due process in a Justice Department prison in our nation’s capital.
Our law enforcement and intelligence community officials need to answer some basic questions—questions that can be answered without “exposing sources or methods” or resorting to excuses about classification.
Normally, the FBI oversees domestic human intelligence operations that pertain to terrorism. This helps keep conflicts between law enforcement and intelligence agencies at a minimum. Human intelligence operations are very sensitive in nature, which in turn has given rise to extensive documentation and oversight.
Congress should subpoena the director of the FBI’s Washington, D.C. field office, the chief of station for the CIA’s national resources office in D.C., the director of the D.C. Joint Terrorism Task Force, the chief of the U.S. Capitol Police and the D.C. Metropolitan Police and ask them the following questions under oath:

2) What role did these sources/agents/undercovers (SAUs) play during the events of the day?
3) How and what did the SAUs report to their controlling officers on January 6 and prior to that day?
4) How many SAUs were in direct contact with individuals currently detained or charged by the Justice Department?
5) How much involvement were SAUs allowed to have in illegal activity on January 6 or prior to that day?
6) Were the SAUs instructed to report threats of imminent danger? How many...

LOL... going on 8ish years, how many times did I throw out the flag on Rhodes. All I ever heard was "Nawh, he's an Oathkeeper...he would never betray that oath", "He's good people, I trust him", "I'll stand with him"...LOL. Yeah, how's that working out now?!
ReplyDeleteAnyone who says they 'represent you', that they 'know where you're coming from, and will help you get where you're going'...and 'trust me' are folks who don't represent you, don't have a clue where you're coming from and you can never trust them...because they certainly know where they're sending you. (hint, it ain't where you wanted to go)
Pelosi and her witch trial is not out to find truth, but to protect the arrests of the political prisoners and try to place the blame on the Orange Man they hate. Congress, The Judges, FBI, Capitol Police, and Metro Police are all corrupt or the people arrested would be freed by now and the CP Officer that murdered Ashli Babbitt would be arrested and waiting trial.
