Government Corruption
Did a Government Intel Asset Plant Key Evidence in Proud Boys Case?
2023-02-16
[AmericanGreatness] We should be suspicious of weird coincidences.

The person responsible for preparing the document is a man named Samuel Armes, a young cryptocurrency expert living in Florida. ...[who] told the January 6 select committee last year that he has worked for the State Department and Special Operations Command at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa.
It’s week five of the Justice Department’s most high-profile—and high-stakes—criminal trial related to the events of January 6, 2021. Five members of the Proud Boys face the rare "seditious conspiracy" charge. Guilty verdicts—almost certain given the government’s near-perfect conviction rate for January 6 defendants—would build legal momentum for a similar indictment against Donald Trump
...Perhaps no man has ever had as much fun being president of the US...
. (The trial is so crucial that Matthew Graves, the Biden-appointed U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia responsible for prosecuting every January 6 case, has shown up in the courtroom on at least three occasions.)

#4  Find any Proud Boys who weren't prosecuted. There are your FBI agents.

#2  But Besoeker! To do that, I supposed you'd have to toss all the top three layers of the FBI bureaucracy! And a bunch of DOJ folks. And ...

Hmmmmm.....

#1  The filing suggests that the handling of "1776 Returns," like so much of January 6, was yet another sting operation.

Throw all the cases and convictions OUT !
