200 Feds At the Capitol on Jan 6, According to Congressman

CV NEWS FEED // A U.S. Congressman stated that based on his investigations, there were at least a couple hundred undercover  Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) assets at the Capitol on January 6, 2021.

Rep. Clay Higgins, R-LA, said Saturday that “real, hard, objective, and conservative estimates would put the number of FBI assets in the crowd, outside, and working inside at well over 200.”

Higgins made his remarks on Tucker Carlson’s X (formerly Twitter) show on the three-year anniversary of the riot.

The congressman told Carlson that his investigations point to “the involvement of certain actors … within the federal government to set the stage for what happened on [January 4, 5, and 6, 2021] and to entrap thousands of Americans from across the country and to lure them into this set stage.”

“The people that were involved in that is quite a large web,” Higgins added. “We do have a great deal of evidence compiled, and we are gradually [and] professionally rolling that evidence out.”

“You just said that elements within the federal government – I assume law enforcement, intel, and military … lured Americans to Washington in what you called a trap,” Carlson summarized.

“Yes sir,” said Higgins.

“The FBI assets dressed as Trump supporters that were inside the Capitol were there … to specifically wave in the Trump supporters that had gathered outside the Capitol,” Higgins continued.

“On the inside were … more Trump supporters … but really those were FBI assets, law enforcement assets that knew their way around the Capitol,” he said. “And they waved those guys in.”

Higgins suggested that FBI assets led some rioters straight to Nancy Pelosi’s office.

“On January 6 the guides were FBI assets,” he emphasized.

Aaron Babbitt, whose wife Ashli was killed by a Capitol Police officer during the day’s events, came to a similar conclusion during an interview with Newsmax’s Greg Kelly in 2022. “They let everybody in,” Babbitt stated. “They didn’t stop anybody from coming in.”

First elected to Congress in 2016, Higgins serves on both the House Homeland Security Committee and the House Oversight Committee.

“To find that level of conspiratorial corruption at the highest levels of the FBI has been very troubling to me, as a man, as a cop,” the Louisiana lawmaker said. “Yet, you follow the evidence wherever it leads. This is what investigators do.”

Higgins is an Army veteran and has worked in law enforcement for nearly 20 years. He currently holds a reserve commission with the Louisiana Department of Justice.

“Did you have confidential human sources dressed as Trump supporters inside the Capitol on January 6, prior to the doors being opened?” Higgins asked FBI Director Christopher Wray during a 2022 Homeland Security Committee hearing. 

“Again, I have to be very careful,” Wray said in reply.

“It should be a ‘no,’” the congressman said. “Can you not tell the American people, ‘no?’”

In his opening remarks, Carlson said that “hovering over” January 6 “has remained the question, to what extent was it a set-up?”

“We still don’t really know,” Carlson said. “But what’s interesting is how few people have asked that entirely legitimate question.”
