[PJ] Those wacky, right-wing, tinfoil-hat people (like myself) are correct yet again.
After defense attorneys "combed through a mountain of discovery," they added a footnote to their 41-page motion to dismiss charges related to Jan. 6.
Attorneys added a note that "At least 20 FBI and ATF assets were embedded around the Capitol on J6," to page 6 of the motion, which they filed to dismiss charges of seditious conspiracy and obstruction charges against 10 members of the "Oath Keepers," a right-leaning, pro-Constitution group of Americans.
The "mountain of discovery" included FD-302 forms, which FBI agents fill out after they interview people.
The motion to dismiss, filed by defense attorney David W. Fischer, also stated that defense attorneys had "not found one iota of proof" that the ten Oath Keepers "had any plan, intention, design, or scheme to specifically enter the Capitol Building on J6."
Many Americans, especially J6 defendants and their lawyers, have long maintained that undercover feds were involved in the Jan. 6 protest-turned-melee.
FACT-O-RAMA! If 300,000 Americans descend upon Washington D.C. and only 200 get violent, that would be the true meaning of "mostly peaceful."
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) ripped Jill Sanborn, executive assistant director of the FBI’s national security division, about this very topic on Jan. 11, 2022, in a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing.
"How many FBI agents or confidential informants actively participated in the events of Jan. 6," Cruz asked Sanborn.
"Sir, I’m sure you can appreciate that I can’t go into the specifics of sources and methods," Sanborn answered.
"Did any FBI agents or confidential informants actively participate in the events of Jan. 6, yes or no" Cruz continued.
"Sir, I can’t answer that," Sanborn responded.
"Did any FBI agents or confidential informants commit crimes of violence on Jan. 6?" Cruz asked.
"I can’t answer that, sir," Sanborn retorted.
