‘We’ve already identified that there were multiple confidential human informants.’
Former US Special Operations soldier Joe Kent, who currently serves as the Director of the National Counter Terrorism Center, sat for a confirmation hearing before the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.
During his testimony on Thursday leftist Senator Mark Kelly asked Kent about Signal group non-scandal and his prior comments on the FBI’s involvement in the January 6 protests and riot.
Kent did not spend any time on the Signal non-scandal – apparently everyone uses Signal including Democrats and have used the app for several years.
Kent also did not retract any of his earlier comments on the FBI’s involvement in January 6. In fact, Kent doubled down.
This was an incredible exchange. Joe Kent is a real pro!
Senator Mark Kelly: Do you believe Jan 6 was intentionally organized or directed?
Joe Kent: Still under investigation, we’re looking into whether elements of the government could have enhanced the criminal acuity of some of the rioters that day.
Senator Mark Kelly: You’ve said on Twitter that the FBI and the intelligence community were involved in planning and directing the riot. Is that correct?
Joe Kent: Sounds like something I said, yeah.
Senator Mark Kelly: What evidence do you have for that claim?
Joe Kent: We’ve already identified that there were multiple confidential human informants ran by the FBI and other law enforcement agencies that were present in the crowd that day, directing, removing barriers, those types of things. This has been investigated widely. We’re continuing to look into it. I would say the FBI and other elements of the law enforcement apparatus attempted to suppress the fact that there was undercover confidential human informants that were part of these different groups. We also had intelligence leading up to January sixth that there was going to be violence that day. That speaks to some degree of intelligence infiltration into some of these groups.
Senator Mark Kelly: Who within the FBI?
Joe Kent: We’re looking into that right now.
Senator Mark Kelly: Which departments of the FBI?
Joe Kent: Probably the Washington field office.
Senator Mark Kelly: You believe the Washington field office was involved in the planning of the violence in the building next door on January 6th?
Joe Kent: It’s being looked into. I mean, look, we had- Who is looking into it? We are in the intelligence community. Yeah, we’re looking into it right now.
Senator Mark Kelly: Do you believe that the IC conducts actions of this nature against Americans?
Joe Kent: Does the IC, well, the FBI and other law enforcement agencies, entrapping individuals? If you look at who was running the Washington field office during January sixth, so Steven De Antuono, he was also running the field office in Michigan, where many of the defendants were let go after they were accused of attempting to kidnap the governor because the vast majority of them were undercover FBI confidential informants. Unfortunately, this behavior does happen by members of law enforcement and the intelligence community. It’s incumbent upon us to make sure that we are transparent with the American people.
Senator Mark Kelly: Mr. Kemp, would you be willing to share this evidence of this investigation with this committee?
Joe Kent: I look forward to it, Senator. All right.

Once Again… This is not anything new for The Gateway Pundit readers. We have been tracking the many instances of likely government operatives who were involved in the setup of innocent Trump supporters on January 6, 2021.
It all started when Nancy Pelosi refused to bring in National Guard soldiers to keep the peace that day. What did Old Nancy know about the that day?
In July 2022 TGP contributor Cara Castronuova released whistleblower documents, text messages, and audio transcripts of FBI informant James Knowles’s communications with his FBI handlers on January 6. The evidence exonerates Trump supporters and the Proud Boys of any conspiracy or planning to storm the US Capitol, to enter the US Capitol, or to overthrow official proceedings.
The evidence reported by Cara at The Gateway Pundit was explosive.
IT DID NOT HAPPEN as we all know.
Now we have the proof!
The FBI had the evidence that there was “no conspiracy” or plans made by the Proud Boys and others to invade and take control of the US Capitol. The FBI ignored this information from their own operative. They ran with lies about an insurrection instead.
