On December 12, Pro- and Anti-Trump activists traveled to Washington DC. Brawls broke, four people were stabbed. That day, John Sullivan was escorted from an event at Black Lives Matter Plaza in Washington after he was identified by activists aware of the accusations against him. [2] That same day, James Sullivan was similarly evicted from a Pro-Trump event in Washington.[30]"John has been kicked from the #SaltLakeCity and #Portland protest scenes due to alarming behaviors including grifting/profiteering, self-promotion/clout chasing, sabotage of community actions, threats of violence, and — maybe most disturbingly — ties to the far-right ... John's brother, James, is the co-founder of a pro-Trump org called 'Civilized Awakening,' and has strong ties to Proud Boys — even having spoken at a Proud Boy rally. The brothers' polarized political stances conveniently bolster the other's public personas. Activists in these cities recommend that he be barred from community actions and totally avoided."

Ties to Proud Boys[edit]
Sullivan organized events in Provo, Utah that were controversial with BLM. Sullivan experienced greater skepticism after a July 1, 2020 event where he invited speeches from the Proud Boys, an American far-right, neo-fascist organization that promotes and engages in political violence.[21][22] Sullivan's close relationship with the Proud Boys led to BLM activists refusing to work with him.[2] Sullivan later got his group firearms training.[2] On September 26, Sullivan's brother James had addressed a Proud Boys rally in Portland on behalf of James's far-right group Civilized Awakening.[23] [24][25]

Read that again Correll you dipshitDenounced and expelled[edit]
An activist from Portland warned people not to trust him, after he managed to get local activists arrested in September 2020 by leading them down a wrong route and into a police kettle; Sullivan was widely-suspected of being a double agent working for law enforcement. In Signal chat groups, Sullivan would use various sock puppet accounts to create the illusion that others were defending the reputation of John Sullivan.[3] Labor activist Talia Jane said Sullivan is "reviled throughout the activist space".[2]
On September 16, James Sullivan and Civilized Awakening held a counterprotest against BLM. James brought a bodyguard to a BLM protest; that individual was arrested on charges of brandishing a firearm.[10][31]
On November 26, 2020, Seattle activists published a memo accusing John Sullivan of being an agent provocateur seeking to undermine the Black Lives Matter movement:[2]

Bullshit.Lots of oathkeepers who were at the riot "walked free"
What kind of drugs are you on?So, you're claiming now that he was a police agent, not a lefty activist?
Either way, he is a case of an outside infilitrator and agitator.
With ties to the Proud boys as documented from your link aboveEither way, he is a case of an outside infilitrator and agitator.
Antifa disavowed John Sullivan before January 6. He was not part of Antifa

The Proud Boys disavowed that one guy that was at Charlottesville and that didn't stop you leftards from CONSTANTLY AND FALSELY claiming it was a Proud Boys event.Antifa disavowed John Sullivan before January 6. He was not part of Antifa

John Earle Sullivan (born July 18, 1994),[1] also known as Activist John,[2] is an American political activist and self-identified photojournalist who participated in the 2021 United States Capitol attack.
Before the January 6 attack, Sullivan organized and participated in protests relating to the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement, though a few other BLM organizers explicitly disavowed him, even expelling Sullivan from rallies and warning fellow activists to avoid associating with Sullivan.[3][4]
On January 6, Sullivan entered the Capitol and broke a window. He repeatedly shouted encouragement to fellow rioters. Sullivan captured footage of the attack, his own interactions with law enforcement, and the shooting of Ashli Babbitt.[5]
After Sullivan participated in the Capitol attack, some theories accuse Sullivan of being affiliated with antifa, though federal authorities had not identified him as such and he has stated that he has no relationship to the antifa movement.[6][7]
Ok, That's not exactly what was said, but you don't have to agree with the bipartisan congressional investigation. It's not like they interviewed all the people involved, or anything.Sorry i don’t find it credible that the DoJ had information of a planned coup attempt and just forgot to tell anyone.
Perhaps those in power wanted to see a riot or “insurrection” so they could use it to discredit Trump and stop hime from running again.If they had people inside, why did they not warn of the supposedly planned "innsurrection"?
Yet he was marching shoulder to shoulder with the Proud Boys for most of the day, and up until a few minutes before he drove into the crowd.The Proud Boys disavowed that one guy that was at Charlottesville and that didn't stop you leftards from CONSTANTLY AND FALSELY claiming it was a Proud Boys event.
Why do you repect that when it serves your purpose but ignore it when it...oh right, because you are all dishonest trolls.
The DOJ has charged several members of the oathkeepers with planning an insurrection on Jan 6. They could only know that if they had oathkeepers who are turning states evidence or they had sources inside. They have now admitted that they were running sources inside the oathkeepers. So that begs the question if you have enough evidence of this planning to charge members with it then why weren’t the correct people informed prior to Jan 6 to prevent it.Ok, That's not exactly what was said, but you don't have to agree with the bipartisan congressional investigation. It's not like they interviewed all the people involved, or anything.
So you think Antifa lied about disavowing him a year before 1/6 to hide the fact they were associated a year later? That's a little far fetched, isn't it?Cause no one would ever lie, to hide their membership in a violent, criminal, even traitorous organization.
So let’s understandThe portion you cut and pasted was presenting the opinion of some of the blm factions, that he was a police agent/agitator.
If so, then he could have been there on 1/6 in the same role.
OR, the blm types that did not like him, could have been wrong and his attempts to support the BLM movement might have been sincere.
Either way, he clearly was not there as a sincere Trump supporter, thus validating the concerns about outside infiltrators/agitators, leading/causing/encouraging the violence.
After all, Trump rallies, Republcian rallies in general, don't have a pattern of erupting into riots.
Unlike you violent lefties.
Perhaps those in power wanted to see a riot or “insurrection” so they could use it to discredit Trump and stop hime from running again.
