DOJ Inspector General said there were more than two dozen confidential human sources in the crowd outside the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, but only three were assigned by the FBI to be present for the event, Fox News has learned.

    3 agents purposefully sent there. OK. Seems like a sane thing for our top cops to investigate. I’m concerned there weren’t more boots on the ground.

    26 with no authorization.

    Among 2,500 people?

    Something like .01% were FBI “plants”, if we’re being extraordinarily liberal with that word? And keep in mind, this event was in DC. There’s maybe a few local FBI guys?

    If anything, this disproves that the FBI was agitating or participating in the event. If anything, the unauthorized participants might say something about the conservative bent of the FBI. An agency, much like the military, who should have no political bend.

    It’s embarrassing to bandy this about as a conservative “win”.
