Rep. Clay Higgins: The FBI lured Americans into a January 6 trap

On January 6, 2024, the drive-by media went into overdrive, remembering (sometimes while oozing crocodile tears) the horrors of January 6, 2021. It was, they said, the day on which democracy was under attack...According to Rep. Clay Higgins (R. LA), who has been investigating what actually happened that day, when one deletes the layers of leftist propaganda, it appears that January 6 was a giant entrapment web that successfully stopped official challenges to election certification, made Trump even more toxic and, worst of all, turned his law-abiding supporters into criminals.

"The FBI had embedded themselves into various groups online across the country of Americans who were essentially voicing their concerns and airing their grievances with each other about COVID oppression. Those Americans were targeted by the FBI—almost universally Republicans and largely Trump supporters. But the FBI worked undercover and infiltrated those conversations and [had] become a significant part of those individual Americans’ communications.

And when you dig into the evidence that we've had revealed through some criminal cases that I've followed and worked with in families of J6 political detainees and Americans that have been persecuted for their involvement in the capital that day, some of that evidence shockingly reveals that the FBI agents that were operating undercover within the online groups across the country were the first ones to plant the seeds of a suggestions of a more radical occupation of the capital.

If you look at the origins of those conversations, they were started by the FBI undercover guy that was operating inside the group.

So Americans gathered at their own Capitol to appropriately air grievances and protests at their Capitol, but embedded amongst their number was an FBI asset that had been working from within their group online for many months."

So, despite video to the contrary, you don't think the FBI had any role in instigating what happened on J6?

I bet you don't think there was massive election fraud in 2020, either. Right?

You don't see a double standard between how the George Floyd protesters, Brett Kavanaugh protesters and peaceful J6 protesters have been treated?

I've seen the video of Jacob Chansley, kooky as he may be, being escorted around the Capitol building with police opening doors for him. He served more than two years in prison. How is what he did any different than Alyssa Milano showing up in a Handmaid's outfit and banging on the doors of the room the Kavanaugh hearings were taking place? Milano never served time in prison. We had hundreds of rioters trying to storm past police and through the White House gates to get to Donald Trump on in late May of 2022. They were all violent protesters. Few, if any, were charged, let alone served prison time.

How does Ray Epps get off without serving time in prison when he had a bullhorn and was encouraging protesters to go into the Capitol Building? How is what he did not WORSE than what Chansely did?

So, if you don't see the problem with all that, YOU are then problem and likely part of Deep State or work for some Republican establishment politician that tried to cover up the FBI's and Republican establishment role in J6 and the rigged 2020 election.
