The FBI could have stopped the Jan 6 events because they knew what was coming. Why didn’t they?

FBI Director Christopher Wray has a curious set of priorities. He bailed out of a Senate hearing in August to use a private jet to take him to a very important personal vacation in the Adirondacks. Wray doesn't like answering questions- especially the critical ones. And so it was once again last Tuesday that Wray refused to answer rather important questions.

FBI Director Christopher Wray refused to answer multiple questions Tuesday from a Republican congressman concerning whether FBI sources were embedded among Jan. 6 protesters during a House Homeland Security Committee hearing on Worldwide Threats to the Homeland.

Republican Louisiana Rep. Clay Higgins asked Wray at the hearing if the FBI had “confidential human sources embedded within the Jan. 6 protesters” that day. Wray said he had to “be very careful about when we do and do not and where we have and have not used” such sources, “categorically” denying that bureau sources or employees “instigated or orchestrated Jan. 6.”

It got heated
“Did you have confidential human sources dressed as Trump supporters inside the Capitol on Jan. 6 prior to the doors being opened?” Higgins subsequently questioned. Wray began to repeat that he needed to be “very careful,” but the congressman loudly insisted, “It should be a no! Can you not tell the American people no?”
No, he would not. I believe he refused to answer because it would open a Pandora's box. Wray did have sources in not only the Oath Keepers but in the Proud Boys as well. According to the NY Times (via Steve Krakauer)
NYT reports the #2 man in the Oath Keepers, Greg McWhirter, was actually an FBI informant, talking to them for months ahead of the Capitol attack.
And the NY Times reports "the FBI "had as many as eight informants inside" inside the Proud Boys, in the months before AND after the January 6 riot."

The FBI knew what was coming. The big question is why did they let it happen? They could have shut the whole down and charged many with conspiracy, but no.

Moles and trolls.

That’s what they did during Trump’s campaign. Inserted moles to spy, then sent in trolls to stir the pot and basically try to entrap. The moles were there to observe and document the ‘crimes’.

That’s the method they use.
They have NO DESIRE to stop a crime, and arguably they inspire them to happen. That’s the trolling aspect.
It would be hard to prove they trolled Jan.6, but they definitely had their moles inside, so they could have prevented it if they wanted to.

The simple answer is that the FBI (DoJ) had their Agenda to promote. Anybody who says otherwise is either clueless or a liar.

Because many, if not all, of the violent events that occurred on January 6th were staged by the FBI to prevent debate regarding certifying an election where an old white man who rarely left his basement got more votes than one of the greatest campaigners of all time.

By the way... the great campaigner I’m referring to was Barrack Obama.

I always think back to the Oregon Standoff at the wildlife refuge in January of 2016 it was a prototype of January 6th.

They left the door open there for Ammon Bundy and others to walk in.

Of course at the trial the feds lost the case since Bundy was such a peace-loving and unarmed man.

Plus the defense lawyers found some of the FBI operatives involved in the operation.

In all 15 FBI operatives in that little thing.

J6 a hundred or more?

The Democrats had their plan. The FIB helped execute it. The FIB set up, instigated, and caused destruction because their pinko masters told them to. Just like they’ve done to many citizens in recent history.
Criminal organization.

The FIBBIEs “Insurrection of Wednesday Afternoon” wasn’t exactly something the Fibbies are going to be able to brag to their grandchildren about. Basically, Generation Zero’s great battle against the “Deadly” Insurrection Of Wednesday Afternoon was really nothing more than “shoveling sh** in Louisiana.”

There were people like the J6’ers trolling Antifa and BLM in Portland in late August.

A convoy of J6 looking people paintballed Leftists near the federal courthouse in Portland one Saturday afternoon.

The feds started using people who were at Capitol on J6 to deal with the Antifa-BLM violence following George Floyd’s death.

The FBI was inserted in many months before J6 IMHO.

Since they had informants in the groups , why didn’t the FBI inform Congress and the White House, to make sure National Guard was stationed so a riot couldn’t happen?

What’s the good of informants if they don’t inform or if their FBI bosses don’t act on the information?

THIS is the question Congressional committees should be asking of Wray. He could have stopped the riot but didn’t. How did he screw up so royally and why should such an incompetent keep his job?

I know that many Freepers think the informers were actually instigators , and the FBI planned the riot. But that’s a hard sell to the American people, and mainstream media will ridicule you as conspiracy nuts. What WILL resonate with Americans is the argument that the FBI showed outrageous incompetence - and top FBI brass should be fired at the very least and perhaps indicted for allowing an “insurrection” to happen-

The FBI is the Vince McMahon of the January 6th event.

No. The big question is why did the FBI orchestrate the whole thing?

The January 6th “Insurrection” was nothing other than the next attempt to get Trump. Pelosi and all her minions, as well as the Uniparty did everything they could to enable a protest to evolve into what they trumped up into an “Insurrection” Trump offered the National Guard, Pelosi et all said now. Capitol Police removed barriers and invited people inside. FBI & other nefarious organizations instigated things to wind it up on both sides. It was all a set up to get Trump one more time.

For starters, they could have assured the huge impenetrable Capitol outside doors were locked. Now, ask yourself how those massively thick doors, which could only be opened from the inside, got open. Lots of questions and all answers are shrouded from the public.

As I wrote in a vanity last week, Congress should hold a hearing on the FBI failure to stop J6, in the spirit of the Commissions that investigated how the US military dropped the ball on Dec 7 1941 and left Pearl Harbor unprepared and undefended. Admiral Kimmel was demoted after the inquiries ( some historians say unfairly, that he didn’t have adequate intelligence to foresee the attack)

Congress needs to hold some Admirel Kimmel-type hearings regarding the FBI’s failure to protect the Capitol from “insurrection” on Jan6, when the FBI DID have informants intelligence to be forewarned

Same as the fake Gretchen Whitmer kidnap attempt......infiltrated a group and motivated them to do something they otherwise probably would not have.........pure evil IMO.

‘Never let a crisis go to waste’ comes to mind.

If you don’t have a crisis, create one.

[J6 was a ‘crisis’ manufactured by the Dems.]
