For those who don't know, or don't remember, There was a bombshell from the New York Times dropped right in the middle of the election that yes, there had been FBI informants involved both as part of the Oathkeepers group and as part of the Proud Boys. Then the New York Times followed that up this week noting that the FBI may have
had as many as eight informants involved with the Proud Boys. The big question would be if they had that many people involved in the groups, why didn’t they do anything to stop the riot beforehand? And why wasn’t there more protection at the Capitol by the police?
This new information is already sparking more questioning of the FBI as to what was happening in this matter. Rep. Clay Higgins (R-LA) grilled FBI Director Christopher Wray on the question on Tuesday, first asking if the FBI had confidential human sources on the scene during Jan. 6 Capitol riot. Wray avoided the question, but said he had to be very careful about what he said.
