Ted Cruz gets FBI director to make 'astonishing' admission about agent who was in charge during Whitmer kidnapping plot investigation
The Blaze ^ | August 4, 2022 | Chris Enloe

FBI Director Christopher Wray admitted Thursday the FBI agent in-charge of the Washington, D.C., field office is the same agent who was in charge of the Detroit field office when the FBI allegedly uncovered a plot to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D).

During a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) pressed Wray over whether the same FBI agent who was in charge during the Whitmer incident is now in charge of the Jan. 6 investigations.

The alleged plot by far-right militia members to kidnap Whitmer has tarnished the FBI because many of the defendants essentially accuse the FBI of entrapment. To date, none of the defendants in the case have been convicted of any crime. Some have been acquitted at trial, while others are awaiting a new trial after a mistrial.

"The special agent in charge of that case has now been sent to D.C. to the Washington, D.C., office and now leads the investigation regarding January 6. Is that correct? Cruz asked.

"The name of the individual is Steven D’Antuono. He was run out of the FBI Detroit field office," Cruz added.

After back-and-forth about another matter — regarding a lead FBI agent involved in the Whitmer investigation who was fired last year after he allegedly assaulted his wife — Wray answered Cruz's question.

"To clarify the first part of your question, Mr. D’Antuono was the special agent in charge of the Detroit field office and is now the assistant director in charge of the Washington field office," Wray explained.

False flag confirmed.
Waiting for the Jan. 6th fiasco to be proven as a false flag as well.

Everyone in the FBI, top down to the janitors and parking valets need to be fired, arrested, tried for treason and, if found guilty, executed.

Seems highly coincidental. This guy must be the Dem Party’s man.

Hardly astonishing. Politics as usual pretty much I'd say. After all, Wray was supposed to be fired and stripped of his pension for his conduct. People really lose their history with this media constantly rebooting reality every 4 to 8 hours.

The true seditious criminals are running the show right now. Pure Alinsky dogma. Everything they accuse their opponents of is exactly what they have been doing. Wake up people.

Was he sent to the DC office before January 6th? Could this guy be the main culprit behind using Federal agents as agents provocateur in DC? Just like he did in Wisconsin?

The FBI has a tradition of promoting their worst criminals. Lon Hariuchi was promoted after murdering Randy Weavers wife and son.

The whole purpose of the January 6th commission is to hide the evidence of what the democrats have been doing. Content control.

We have known this for quite a while-is that nobody would say it publicly before this? Is that all this is?

So Cruz is just now catching on to the modus operandi of most government personnel, i.e. eff up and move up???? Or are we just now getting an admission of this from someone in a position of authority?

Ted is doing VERY well. Has a multi-million-dollar house and a lot of security guards.

Yes. The Wisconsin kidnapping caper was a trial run for Jan6.
