While prosecutors successfully concealed the identities of most FBI informants planted in the Proud Boys, newly obtained surveillance video shows the movement of one Proud Boy informant on January 6.
Michael Alan Jones is a convicted felon with a history of firearms, drug and statutory rape charges. But rather than spend years in prison—more on that in a future piece—in 2019, Jones suddenly became interested in so-called “white supremacist” and “neo-Nazi” groups including the Proud Boys and Patriot Front.
And according to a recent article on Raw Story, an online publication that tracks the activity of those groups, Jones was an FBI informant. “Raw Story has independently confirmed that Jones has in the past worked as a paid FBI informant,” reporter Jordan Greene disclosed last month. “Lira Gallagher, a spokesperson for the FBI Washington Field Office, declined to comment.”
Jones, now 25, participated in several Proud Boys demonstrations leading up to the events of January 6. For example, in November 2020, Jones joined the Proud Boys for a “Stop the Steal” protest that “served as a regional feeder event for a Dec. 12, 2020 protest against the election outcome that would come to be seen as a dress rehearsal for the Jan. 6 insurrection,” Raw Story reported last month.

I understand that the DOJ is know going after some independent journalists who were recording and reporting at the Capitol that day. I hope Julie is watching her back.
The connection for this site is not secureLooks like they already are going after her. SSL is not complicated. Taking it down maliciously, IDK.
In case this story is taken down, here' the jist of it.
Michael Jones, another bad dude who's been working as an informant with the FBI. Very active on J6. In and out of the capital several times. Might even have hit an officer. NO CHARGES.
Here's what he posted on his Instagram account just after J6:
“There might have been a handful of agents in the crowd but they lost control of the crowd and things got worse than they anticipated. They anticipated letting in a door or two and making that look like the end of the world. But the doors got smashed down and people f***ed around in offices and threw paperwork around for fun.”
Jan 6 was "allowed to happen" for the purpose of HALTING planned legal challenges to election integrity. It worked. The challenges were halted, permanently, just as they were starting.

I find that statement quite easy to believe.
I also find statements about convicted felons being paid by the FBI as informants easily believable.
Would I, as boss of the FBI, find myself forced to employ the same folks I was tasked with hunting?
Seems to me I might have an ethics much less a legal problem were I to accept such a situation.
The FBI went off the rails for sure in the sixties in regards to valuing their informants much more than “We the People”. See the Ted Deegan murder and subsequent railroading of those accused of the murder. All accused have been exonerated. Unfortunately long after their imprisonment and death. There may be one survivor, all received millions in compensation for their wrongful convictions.
I’ll include a link that is very long. You might just scroll to the end and read the last few entries to get the gist of things to include issues with the home of the FBI in DC and the Boston Field Office. https://www.doubledealpodcast.com/edward-teddy-deegan-part-3-the-trial-the-aftermath/
...and what of the history from inception?
Bump
Thanks for the bump on the thread.
The fact that the January 6th committee has destroyed so much of the evidence they collected (manufactured?) speaks loudly about the mission of that committee.
It is a federal crime (a felony) to destroy congressional documents. When will they be charged?
