FBI and ATF ‘Assets’ Embedded at Capitol on January 6

This comes as no surprise. The whole January 6 “insurrection” scenario was implausible from the start. Trump told the protestors to proceed peacefully, and told them to disperse when things got out of hand. The Dems would have us believe that the United States government was about to be overthrown by a guy wearing viking horns. The January 6 hysteria — worse than 9/11, worse than Pearl Harbor — spit on the graves of those who were killed on those days. The Democrats from the start have tried to use January 6 to criminalize opposition to their anti-American, socialist policies. That’s the only way they can put them over on the American people.

“20 Federal ‘Assets’ Embedded at Capitol on Jan. 6, Court Filing Says,” by Joseph M. Hanneman, Epoch Times, April 12, 2022:

At least 20 FBI and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives “assets” were embedded around the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, a defense attorney wrote in a court filing on April 12.

The disclosure was made in a motion seeking to dismiss seditious conspiracy and obstruction charges against 10 Oath Keepers defendants in one of the most prominent Jan. 6 criminal cases.

David W. Fischer, attorney for Thomas E. Caldwell of Berryville, Virginia, filed a 41-page motion to dismiss four counts on behalf of all Oath Keepers case defendants before U.S. District Judge Amit P. Mehta in Washington, D.C.

Caldwell is charged in the indictment, but is not a member of the Oath Keepers, he told The Epoch Times in March.

“At least 20 FBI and ATF assets were embedded around the Capitol on J6,” read a footnote on Page 6 of the motion. No other details were provided in the document.

The footnote said defense attorneys “combed through a mountain of discovery,” including FBI form 302 summaries of interviews conducted by FBI agents. In addition to the information about law-enforcement assets on the ground at the Capitol, the footnote says, the Oath Keepers “were being monitored and recorded prior to J6.”

Poring over evidence turned over in discovery by prosecutors in two major Oath Keepers cases has “not found one iota of proof” that defendants “had any plan, intention, design, or scheme to specifically enter the Capitol Building on J6,” the motion said….
