The FBI had at least one "informant," at the Capital on Jan 6. But they didn't listen to him! Why?

A member of the Proud Boys who was working as an FBI informant was present at the January 6 riot at the US Capitol and sent his FBI handler live updates by text message, indicating the law enforcement agency had real-time knowledge that a pro-Trump mob was headed toward the building.

According to a report published Saturday by The New York Times, the informant was updating his handler as the pro-Trump mob marched toward the US Capitol 6 while lawmakers were meeting inside to discuss and certify Joe Biden as the winner of the 2020 presidential election.

. . .

The handler didn't appear to understand that the Capitol had been breached, according to the records obtained by the Times. The records were provided to the outlet on the grounds it would not quote directly from them, according to the report.

The informant began working with federal investigators in July 2020, records said, according to the Times.


Was the informant not an English speaker? If so, why was his handler not fluent in the informer's languag? If the informer was an English speaker, aren't the FBI entry tests and training conducted in English?

Clearly, the FBI handler did understand what was going on and it was not a deviation from the FBI plan.

Rump PERSONALLY sent that mob to the Capitol... it was nationally televised... EVERYBODY knew that a Rumpian Brown-Shirt mob was on its way... :auiqs.jpg:

Too bad the Secret Service prevented him from joining General Ludendorf Flynn and others to participate in his very own Beer Hall Putsch, eh? :itsok:

It's pretty outrageous for Americans to attack the Capitol and threaten Congress and the VP.. Who knew Trump was such a ruthless traitor.

Even more so if it started out a peaceful demonstration and the FBI informants turned it violent.
Who knew Trump was such a ruthless traitor.
A ruthless traitor who admonished his supporters to go the Capital "peacefully and patriotically?"

How'd they do that?
How many would it take to persuade, motivate, an guide those thousands of attackers?
And why were those thousands so persuadable that attacking and severely injuring uniformed officers seemed quite OK?
And what about the threats to kill Pence and Pelosi? And stealling laptops, documents, an smearing their poo on the walls of our Capitol?
Are the MAGA's so inclined towards violence and sedition that they can be persuaded in moments to attack our legislators?

"A ruthless traitor who admonished his supporters to go the Capital "peacefully and patriotically?"
And urged millions of them in his Tweeting to come to DC.....and be wild.
And he was able to persuade them to come.
And to be wild.
And they listened to him.
They heeded the call.

Reported:
‘Be There. Will Be Wild!’: Trump All but Circled the Date
“We will never concede,” President Trump said at a rally on Wednesday.

For weeks, President Trump and his supporters had been proclaiming Jan. 6, 2021, as a day of reckoning. A day to gather in Washington to “save America” and “stop the steal” of the election he had decisively lost, but which he still maintained — often through a toxic brew of conspiracy theories — that he had won by a landslide.

And when that day came, the president rallied thousands of his supporters with an incendiary speech. Then a large mob of those supporters, many waving Trump flags and wearing Trump regalia, violently stormed the Capitol to take over the halls of government and send elected officials into hiding, fearing for their safety.

But if the chaos in the Capitol shocked the country, one of the most disturbing aspects of this most disturbing day was that it could be seen coming. The president himself had all but circled it on the nation’s calendar.
“Big protest in D.C. on January 6th,” Mr. Trump tweeted on Dec. 19, just one of several of his tweets promoting the day. “Be there, will be wild!”


And his supporters took the president at his word.
 
The FBI listened to him alright. The thing worked according to plan.

Is that all of your thinking on that, poster Whitehall?
Would you share with the forum your rationale for asserting...for implying.....the FBI was involved?

And then, what's with this "worked according to plan"?
Trump's plan?
The Pillow Boy's plan? Michael Flynn's plan? Peter Navarro's plan?
What up with that?

So how 'bout fleshing out your assertions?
 
I'm trying to follow along here.

Out of those tens of tens of thousands of MAGArats...ONE FBI informant caused all of them to do what they did?

And the FBI should have done what when this clown started telling them that things were getting out of hand?

At that point it was pretty fucking obvious
