Inspect General Outlines Extensive Use of FBI Confidential Human Sources on January 6, 2021

Sundance | Dec 13, 2024

The Office of the Inspector General for the DOJ (DOJ-OIG) has outlined an 88-page report on events around the January 6th, 2021, DC protest. The report is AVAILABLE HERE.

FBI Director Chris Wray announced his decision to resign from office one day before the Inspector General report was released. The report shows that 26 FBI Confidential Human Sources (CHSs) were used officially and unofficially during the J6 events. Four entered the Capitol building, another 13 entered the restricted area around the building.

[OIG REPORT HERE]

The report found that no official FBI employees participated in the events, but 26 confidential human sources were used.  The media are jumping on the part about no FBI employees being present in order to call those who view the FBI as facilitating and coordinating the events of J6 as “conspiracy theorists.”  However, the FBI’s use of CHSs is downplayed and dismissed.

A major topline takeaway from the report in general is how much effort the FBI put into investigating the assembly pre J6.   When you read the IG explanation of the CHSs [Page 50 and beyond] you get a really good feel for how the FBI was focused and positioned before the day unfolded.

The FBI was communicating with various field offices about many of the attendees prior to January 6th, yet the IG report outlines a point of failure that the FBI did not debrief more sources before the events of the day.  There’s a weird disconnect between those two conflicting points.

We have previously outlined the true mission of the FBI and how it is structurally different from the public perception of their mission.  The FBI look out for the interests of the people in the business of DC politics.  The FBI are like congressional and administrative agency security officers for the government.  If a threat is not a threat to the DC system per se’, it is not considered a threat.

The identified threat to DC in the days post 2020 election was not a protest.  The perceived threat they worried about stemmed from a manipulated and stolen election.  The FBI resources were already deployed extensively in the period from November to January in an effort to mitigate the risks and exposures.  The media narrative around the 2020 election was as manipulative as the fence Pelosi put up to support it after J6.

  1. I really hope that Kash Patel cleans out the FBI, even if it means firing single agent. This article tells us that the FBI had “plants” in the crowd on Jan 6th, who apparently had orders to incite the crowd to commit illegal acts. Even though the J6 event was rather chaotic and disorganized, it was “mostly peaceful”, and the only people who died were a man who had a heart attack, and a woman who was shot by a Capital Hill guard, for no apparent good reason. The worse charges that ever should have been filed are trespassing, and vandalism….misdemeanors, both. It was not Trump who committed the incitement, it was the FBI plants. [The Left always accuses others of doing that which they themselves are doing.] I digress.

    All this business caused me to think back on other illicit activities against Americans that the FBI has been involved in. I recall vividly two of the most infamous and egregious of the last 50 years. I speak of the Branch Dividian assault in 1993, where the FBI incinerated 75 innocent people, and the Ruby Ridge incident in 1992, where the FBI besieged a man’s home, killed his dog, his 14 year-old son, his wife, and his friend. The FBI and other federal bands of armed thugs, have a long history of plotting against the American people who insist on asserting their constitutional rights, whether it be to peaceably assemble, to petition the government over grievances, or to bear arms. The FBI, and other federal enforcement agencies, serve the powers that be, (especially if they are Democrats), not the American people.
