Method acting. Some brownshirt pulled an arrest log for the day: https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/22058494/dailypresslog.pdf
We should be just as curious if these names are real, and if so, what their acquaintances have to say about them. The FIB would have no problem faking IDs, but faking family and friends is beyond their pay grade.
Third row. 4th from the left.
I believe that’s Thomas Ryan Rousseau. He’s from Texas originally. He and his group once showed up at a pro life rally in DC. At the famed Unite The Right Rally in Charlottesville, Virginia (where some leftist got killed when a guy rammed his car into her). And now he shows up in Idaho. (I don’t yet know how many other rallies he attended nationwide, if any).
I hardly know of anyone, activist or not, to attend so many rallies in so many states unless they’re candidates for public office or getting paid to do so.
I don’t know if Rousseau is an actual, real life 9-5 badge wearing FBI agent (doubtful). But cursory google searches on him makes me much more inclined to suspect he’s a willing puppet for the feds who pay and direct him to attend all these rallies and cause trouble in order to entrap people as well as destroy the public images and reputations of various right wing people and groups who are law abiding and are not racist, white supremacists.
Don’t forget, the FBI used to resort to these to these types of tactics against left wing groups such as the black panthers and various anti-war organizations back in the 1960s and 70s. So, the feds are old hat at this.
This the response from the mother of one of them.
