Bfl
All of the other guys in the picture are either FBI agents, State Patrol undercover unit members, or "confidential informants" trying to get a lighter sentence on a previous conviction.
And they are all writing reports on each other.
Looks like cosplay dorks.
Summary of the Heaphy Report on Charlottesville, treated at greater length in Anne Wilson Smith, “Charlottesville Untold: Inside Unite The Right”:
Law enforcement failed to adequately plan for or respond to a violent white nationalist rally this summer in Virginia, leading to “deep distrust of government” in the Charlottesville community, an independent review released Friday found.
Former U.S. Attorney Tim Heaphy’s monthslong investigation found a lack of coordination between state and city police and a passive response by officials to the chaos. The report also found that police removed an officer from an area where a car plowed into counterprotesters and killed a woman and injured 19 others, leaving only a small sawhorse in place at the time.
“Supervisors devised a poorly conceived plan that under-equipped and misaligned hundreds of officers. Execution of that plan elevated officer safety over public safety,” the report found.
The City of Charlottesville also did not protect free expression on Aug. 12, the report said.
“This represents a failure of one of government’s core functions — the protection of fundamental rights,” it said. “Law enforcement also failed to maintain order and protect citizens from harm, injury, and death. Charlottesville preserved neither of those principles on Aug. 12, which has led to deep distrust of government within this community.”. .
State police directed their officers “to remain behind barricades rather than risk injury responding to conflicts between protesters and counter-protesters,” the report said. And Charlottesville commanders “similarly instructed their officers not to intervene in all but the most serious physical confrontations.”. .
After each agent takes some for their own personal use, of course.
This is why I love Free Republic. Jim, if you’re lurkin count me in for next Freepathon.
Correction: I meant THIS Freepathon. Done!
Surprisingly these dorks didn’t bother to show up at the DC rally today, but I did see a Patriot Front decal in a very appropriate place, on the wall of a porta potty
The BIG TELL that these are Feds (or mil intel) is their arms. NO TATTOOS. If you ever see Ku Kluxers or Neonazis almost all of them have arms covered with tattoos featuring swastikas or other racist symbols. Yet ALL of the arms showing in that photo have NO TATTOOS. NOT ONE SINGLE TATTOO.
Good catch.
Looks like a scene from “Police Academy” when the dorky recruits arrive, except for “my man Tackleberry”.
There seems to be a running theme of officials standing back and failing to do their jobs that runs from here, to the Jan 6 Capitol riot, to the recent school shooting in Texas...
Interesting. Patriot From formed in late August 2017, after a coup within Vanguard America in June 2017... what was going on in June 2017 I wonder....
No tats or piercings. And get a load of the dude with the red bandana on his head.
Posers.
This was going on in June 2017, around when the infighting amid Vanguard America arose that led to the formation of the “Patriot” group:
Former Dem Vice President Biden to headline Romney summit

Just days after launching a new political action committee, former Democratic Vice President Joe Biden will join Republican officials and donors at a weekend retreat hosted by former GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney.
Biden will be interviewed by Romney during a Friday evening event in Park City, Utah, at the invitation-only summit, according to a Biden spokesman and participants briefed on the schedule. The speaker lineup for what is traditionally a gathering of Romney allies is packed with high-profile Republicans, among them House Speaker Paul Ryan and Sens. Lindsey Graham and John McCain. Ryan was Romney’s running mate in 2012.
Utah seems to have a lot of young citizens showing up in these riots, like the Sullivan guy who started Insurgence USA who was deeply involved in the events of Jan 5 and 6.
I also recall Proud Boys and BLM supporters showing up together in Utah—John Earle Sullivan was one. We’ve also got Evan McMullin pulling his shenanigans trying to pull GOP support toward Romney in Utah and elsewhere.
