#1 That kind of thing is supposed to be kept secret, which suggests somebody deliberately leaked it all of a sudden.

He was originally accused of being a white supremacist in an effort to discredit the movement. Is this a different tack of the same effort?

#2 We may likely soon learn that Mr. Tarrio was an embedded FBI or intelligence community source assigned to the kak disturbers long before Capital storming.

Crossed my mind too. If so, it worked. Also leaves open the possibility of self policing - yeah we're doing our thing but that guy, he's about to do stuff nobody wants done except him.

Dunno, I don't swim in those waters.

#4 Didn't they arrest him coming off the plane the morning of the "capital invasion". Expecting trouble why wouldn't the FBI want a known informant in the middle of things?

#5 /\ Exactly. Detain him long enough to introduce him to his local agent handler, give him updated info, $$$, instructions, camera, recording devices, get outta jail free card, etc.

#6 So what, the left portrayed him as an anti American thug, only to find out he worked for the FBI, an anti American thug fill organization. Seems appropriate...

#7 They're trying to get him killed.

#8 Did somebody out him because there were plans for him to lead the Proud Boys and affiliates on a campaign of domestic terror so the Marxists could crackdown on guns and more muzzling of free speech, and maybe even the 4th amendment? You need a story to explain how you are protecting the nation while you round up and silence the counter-revolutionary forces to the Marxist Coup underway?

#9 They (the feds) ratted him out. They want the mob to take him out, #7 is correct.

#10 Security was very tight.

#11 With the added benefit of seeing what moves (or doesn't move), true or not.

And from what I've come across, true or not, his reputation is ruined.

#12 So he told his honchos, "Go to door 47. I've heard it's unlocked, you'll be able to take the demonstration inside."
