Being a conspiracy theorist is fun, isn't it?
26?
I think I'll do some multiplication to give myself a better idea of the actual number!
Nonetheless, here's the scoop:
Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz said there were more than two dozen confidential human sources in the crowd on Jan. 6, but only three were assigned by the FBI to be present for the event, while stressing that none of the sources was authorized or directed by the bureau to ‘break the law' or ‘encourage others to commit illegal acts,' Fox News has learned …
According to the report, there were a total of 26 confidential human sources in the crowd that day, but only three of them were assigned by the bureau to be there.
One of the three confidential human sources tasked by the FBI to attend the rally entered the Capitol building, while the other two entered the restricted area around the Capitol.
If a confidential human source is directed to be at a certain event, they are paid by the FBI for their time.
None of these officers were authorized to enter the Capitol.
This information comes after Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz released his highly anticipated Review of the FBI's Handling of Its Confidential Human Sources and Intelligence Collection Efforts in the Lead Up to the January 6, 2021 Electoral Certification.
More from the report:
One FBI field office tasked a CHS to travel to DC to report on the activities of a predicated domestic terrorism subject who was separately planning to travel to DC for the January 6 Electoral Certification; a second FBI field office tasked a CHS to travel to DC to potentially report on two domestic terrorism (DT) subjects from another FBI field office who were planning to travel to DC for the events of January 6; and a third CHS, who had informed their handling agent that they intended to travel to DC on their own initiative for the events of January 6, was similarly tasked by their field office to potentially report on two DT subjects from other FBI field offices who were planning to travel to DC for the events of January 6.
So yeah, it looks like the government is at least admitting to 26 informants being on the ground at the Capitol on J6.
And we'll likely never know what the actual numbers look like.
CNN, because they're CNN, wants us to be aware, however, that there were zero -- and they mean ZERO -- undercover agents on the ground that day.
I'm sure there weren't!
I'm old enough to remember when you media types were reporting stuff like this as if we were conspiracy theorists.
