IF YOU DONT HAVE A SCENE WHERE A CLOSETED GAY MAN IS ANGSTILY PLAYING MOZART’S DIES IRAE ON THE VIOLIN AS A SIMULTANEOUS ODE TO HIS DEAD MOTHER AND TO HIS BROKEN RELATIONSHIPS WITH HIS SIBLINGS ARE YOU EVEN WRITING LITFIC???????

[theleagueofsupermushrooms]

Listen if I get a custom made chess set right? And I get this chess set colour coded with the colours of myself and my childhood best friend turned nemesis. And then one of the pawns on the nemesis side looks suspiciously like said nemesis. And then I update the chess set over the years to swap out which piece is the nemesis and update its characteristics. Then absolutely do not assume I'm in love with them. This is just casual arch nemesis things and it's not gay.

Thomas Joscelyn and Norman Eisen at The Bulwark:

Kash Patel, President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee to serve as FBI director, asked that question during a November 25, 2022 episode of his Kash’s Corner podcast for the Epoch Times. It was no slip of the tongue. As the title of that episode suggested—“What Did the FBI Know Before Jan. 6?”—Patel spent considerable time trying to cast the FBI as a villain responsible for January 6th. Patel noted that FBI Director Christopher Wray had “testified that the FBI never instigated or helped the January 6th protesters commit crimes.” But citing a report that the FBI had confidential human sources in the crowd, Patel asserted: “Okay, well, that was in planning for at least a year.” Our review of Patel’s public appearances over the past four years reveals that he has repeatedly insinuated or argued that the FBI used its confidential human sources or employees to instigate the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol and entrap Trump’s supporters. Patel has claimed (as in the podcast episode above) that what he calls the “FBI’s Confidential Human Source Corruption Coverup Network” was somehow involved with January 6th. That is not only an insult to the memory of that day; it should be disqualifying for him to helm the bureau.

During the September 30, 2022 episode of Kash’s Corner, for instance, Patel said: “The question that has to be answered is, when did the FBI put those guys in, and where? And did those confidential human sources engage people who are not going to conduct criminal activity and convince them to do so?” Patel claimed that “is the definition of entrapment, which is illegal, and you can’t charge someone who’s been entrapped.” And he wondered who “was running this confidential human source network” and reporting it to FBI Director Chris Wray.

Patel added he would “venture a guess” that “once we see the documentation from January 6th, you will see the FBI’s confidential human source corruption coverup network on blast.” And he accused the FBI of inserting these human sources “into these matters.” Patel asked rhetorically: “Why? Why would you say January 6th? Because they wanted a political target, a political prosecution, not one based on law and fact.” The man who could lead Trump’s FBI has failed to substantiate these wild accusations, which are contradicted by other evidence and by common sense. Regardless, he has frequently advanced this conspiracy theory, using his background as a former federal prosecutor and public defender—key credentials used to buttress his nomination—to provide it with a veneer of credibility. Below, we provide additional examples showing how Patel has elaborated on this conspiracy theory in his public appearances and his book. But first, we explain how Patel’s conspiracy mongering was recently debunked by the Department of Justice’s own inspector general.

A debunked conspiracy theory

Patel is not alone in claiming that the FBI had a hidden hand in the events of January 6th. That conspiracy theory is popular on the right. In December 2024, the Department of Justice’s Office of the Inspector General (OIG) released a report debunking the conspiratorial claim that the FBI corruptly used its confidential human source network to instigate January 6th. The OIG reports that it “found no evidence . . . that the FBI had undercover employees in the various protest crowds, or at the Capitol, on January 6.” The OIG did find that the FBI tasked three confidential human sources (CHS) with traveling to D.C. “for the events of January 6 to report on domestic terrorism subjects who were possibly attending the event.” And twenty-three other FBI CHSs were in D.C. for January 6th. However, the OIG emphasizes that “none” of these twenty-six CHSs was “authorized to enter the Capitol or a restricted area, or to otherwise break the law on January 6, nor was any CHS directed by the FBI to encourage others to commit illegal acts on January 6.” Simply put, the FBI relied on CHSs to provide information about domestic extremist groups such as the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers. The leaders of both groups have been convicted of seditious conspiracy for their actions surrounding and on January 6th. These rightwing extremists—especially the Proud Boys—were proven in a court of law to have led the attack on the U.S. Capitol.

[...]

Patel falsely asserted that Ray Epps was “allowed to encourage and incite” the Jan. 6th riot as a “government employee”

As part of the conspiracy theory blaming the FBI for January 6th, the MAGA right has fixated on Ray Epps—baselessly asserting that he worked for the FBI and somehow instigated the attack on the Capitol. As discussed above, Patel and Pool wove Epps into their retelling of the conspiracy theory. Patel has pushed his baseless claims much further in other appearances, falsely stating that Epps was “allowed to encourage and incite a riot around some of the events of January 6th as a government employee”; was on the U.S. Capitol grounds “on behalf of the FBI”; was on the “FBI payroll”; and was part of the FBI’s “corruption coverup network,” involving “the illegal use of confidential human sources.” Patel’s allegations, documented more fully below, are not based in fact. During a January 2022 interview with the House January 6th Committee, Epps himself denied working for the U.S. government in any capacity, saying that “the only time I’ve been involved with the government was when I was a Marine in the United States Marine Corps.” In September 2023, Epps pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct on restricted grounds and was subsequently sentenced to one year of probation. During his plea hearing, a government prosecutor confirmed on the record that Epps “was not before, during, or after” January 6th “a confidential source or undercover agent working on behalf of the government, the FBI, or any law enforcement agency.” Outgoing FBI Director Christopher Wray has directly rebutted the conspiracy theory centered on Epps in congressional testimony as well. Nevertheless, Patel has alleged on multiple occasions—without citing adequate supporting evidence or documentation—that Epps was working for the FBI. And again, Patel used his credentials as a former federal prosecutor to lend the conspiracy theory the appearance of legitimacy. “Look, as a former federal prosecutor who ran sources and informants, if the answer is, ‘This guy is not on our payroll and we don’t know him, and he did absolutely nothing for the United States government,’ you come out hard and fast in your press op and say those things,” Patel said during the January 6, 2023 episode of his Kash’s Corner podcast. “But those things have never been said by this DOJ or FBI about Ray Epps.”

[...]

Conclusion

PATEL PUSHING CONSPIRACY THEORIES about what happened on January 6th should disqualify him from leading the FBI. These allegations deface the truth: the responsibility of Donald Trump, his supporters, and his enablers for what happened that day. That dishonors the memory of the members of law enforcement who were injured or died as a result of what really happened that day and in its long runup. But groundlessly focusing blame on the very agency Patel is supposed to lead is more shocking still. It undermines his ability to win the trust of those who make up the FBI. Given the bureau’s central role in protecting us all, the risk of dysfunction is unacceptable. And what other conspiracy theories will he subscribe to, and who will be targeted as a result? Because of the power of the FBI, that question should concern us all. Patel should be thoroughly examined on all of this at his confirmation hearing. It should be disqualifying.

Potential Donald Trump FBI nominee Kash Patel traffics in the dangerous myth that the FBI “planned” the January 6th Insurrection and the lie that Ray Epps “incited” the insurrection.

Patel is wrong: Trump was the chief instigator, and the OIG debunked Patel’s BS lie. On top of that, this fascist bozo should NOT be leading the agency.

DOJ IG reveals 26 FBI informants were present on Jan. 6

The FBI only directed 3 confidential human sources to attend the events of Jan. 6, 2021, Horowitz says

Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz said there were more than two dozen confidential human sources (CHSs) in the crowd outside the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, but only three were assigned by the FBI to be present for the event, while stressing that none of the sources was authorized or directed by the bureau to "break the law" or "encourage others to commit illegal acts," Fox News has learned. 

Horowitz on Thursday released his highly anticipated report on the FBI’s Handling of its Confidential Human Sources and Intelligence Collection Efforts in the Lead Up to the Jan. 6, 2021 Electoral Certification. 

DOJ INSPECTOR GENERAL DOES NOT DENY FBI INFORMANTS WERE AMONG JAN 6 CROWD

"Today’s report also details our findings regarding FBI CHSs who were in Washington, D.C., on January 6," the report states. "Our review determined that none of these FBI CHSs was authorized by the FBI to enter the Capitol or a restricted area or to otherwise break the law on January 6, nor was any CHS directed by the FBI to encourage others to commit illegal acts on January 6."

The report revealed that the FBI had a minor supporting role in responding on Jan. 6, 2021 — largely because the event was not deemed at the highest security level by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). 

[partisan-by-default]

An independent watchdog probe uncovered no evidence that federal agents were involved in inciting the Jan. 6 assault on the U.S. Capitol, according to a report released Thursday, undercutting years of baseless claims spread by far-right political figures who have alleged the FBI played a significant role in the attack.

The long-awaited report by Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz found no evidence that FBI undercover employees were present among the thousands of Trump supporters who stormed the building, or even among the crowds of Trump's supporters who attended protests around Washington, D.C. that day.

While the report confirmed there were 26 informants in Washington, D.C., who were dubbed within the FBI as "confidential human sources" or CHSs, Horowitz uncovered no evidence suggesting that any were instructed to join the assault on the Capitol or otherwise encourage illegal activity by members of the pro-Trump mob.

[darkmaga-returns]

January 6 was a staged and orchestrated event intended to criminalize Donald Trump and his supporters. There is a slew of evidence pointing to US intelligence interference, with more emerging by the week. US intelligence agencies wasted additional resources to investigate their own bureaus, “FBI’s Handling of its Confidential Human Sources and Intelligence Collection Efforts in the Lead Up to the Jan. 6, 2021 Electoral Certification.” Naturally, US intelligence found no wrongdoing on their end.

Department of Justice (DOJ) Inspector General Michael E. Horowitz announced that over two dozen confidential human sources (CHS) were present at the Capitol on January 6. He admits that three FBI agents were among the crowd but insists there were no undercover officers. Twenty-six CHS agents were also among the crowd, but the report insists only three were authorized to be there. One actually entered the Capitol building while the other two made their way into restricted areas. None of those four agents were charged with committing a crime.

“Our review determined that none of these FBI CHSs was authorized by the FBI to enter the Capitol or a restricted area or to otherwise break the law on January 6, nor was any CHS directed by the FBI to encourage others to commit illegal acts on January 6,” he stated.

Horowitz believes that they have simply “found no evidence in the materials we reviewed or the testimony we received showing or suggesting that the FBI had undercover employees in the various protest crowds, or at the Capitol, on January 6.” The FBI applauded the investigation, which was clearly skewed in its favor, and said they would take additional precautions in January 2025.

FBI Director Christopher Wray announced that he is fleeing his post before Trump takes office. “When Chris Wray first got there back in 2017, the FBI was spying on congressional hill staffers, including the guy who is slated to replace him, and then the day after he announces he’s leaving, this report comes out and confirms what so many of us suspected, that there were these confidential human sources present on Jan. 6,” House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, told Fox News.

Those who read between the lines can see that the DOJ and FBI have been weaponized political tools of the deep state under the Biden-Harris regime. Over 1,265 Americans were charged in connection to the January 6 events. The government used J6 as a premise to weaponize financial institutions to spy on Americans and usurp more power. These agencies are working against the American people for the private interests of the deep state and will never admit to any wrongdoing. It is laughable to think that any agency will deter civil unrest next month at Trump’s inauguration.

PASILLO DE LOS SUEÑOS

ORTHO: El seguimiento de señales espectrales ha sido completado. Ha llegado a las coordenadas seleccionadas.

VIL: ¡AAAAAAAAAAY!

¡Nadie me avisó de esto, que se acabe ya! *se aferra a Silver*

SILVER: ¡Vil senpai… ya hemos aterrizado!

VIL: ¡Por favor! ¡AAAAAAY! ¿Eh, ya está?

SILVER: Vil senpai me ha agarrado tan fuerte de repente que no podía mover ni un pelo.

Me ha recordado a las llaves de judo que me hacía señor padre…

Yo solo no habría podido realizar el aterrizaje, ha sido gracias a las instrucciones de Ortho.

SEBEK: Qué capacidad pulmonar y qué potencia vocal tendrá que tener para pasarse todo el viaje chillando.

¡Pensé que me iba a quedar sin tímpanos!

ORTHO: Creo que tú tampoco eres quien para hablar de potencia vocal.

VIL: Seguro que esto es lo que siente un arándano congelado en una batidora. 

SILVER: Siento no haber podido darte un viaje ligero. 

VIL: ¡Ejem! No te equivoques, no te culpo a ti.

Tan sólo me he asustado un poco y he perdido la compostura. ¿... Qué maúllas tú, Grim?

¡Oye, Yuu! ¿Sabías desde el principio que cruzar sueños era así de brusco?

YUU: Sí… / Sí. ¡Pero me pareció divertido ocultarlo!

VIL: ¡Si lo sabías, habérmelo dicho!

GRIM: Nosotros tampoco lo sabíamos la primera vez y lo pasamos fatal.

Sería injusto que sólo tú estuvieses preparado mentalmente.

VIL: Hay que ver, todos los alumnos de esta escuela son iguales. ¡Aay jo, mi pelo, maquillaje y ropa están hechos un desastre!

IDIA: ¡JUAJUAJAJA!

¡Nunca imaginé que oiría esos grititos tan patéticos saliendo de Vil!

Tienes suerte de no haber hecho el ridículo delante de los de tu mismo dormitorio.

VIL: Cállate, Idia. ¿Te destrozo esa pantallita?

IDIA: ¡Jujiji! Adelante, por mucho que rompas la pantalla, a mí no me harás daño.

Esto es el mundo de la imaginación, tengo vidas infinitas~

ORTHO: ¡Muy bieeeen, ya basta de pelear!

GRIM: Bien dicho, Ortho. Esta gente no tiene ni una pizca de consideración.

VIL: Que me lo diga Grim es el pico de la humillación… Pero tiene razón.

Vamos de una vez a buscar al dueño de este sueño y despertarlo.

SILVER: Sí. Este sitio… No creo que esté en la escuela.

VIL: Si no estamos en la escuela, los uniformes de dormitorio serán demasiado llamativos. Tenemos que cambiarnos al uniforme de clase.

TODOS: ¡Dream Form Change!

SEBEK: Bien. Sin más dilación, busquemos al dueño de este sueño.

*chsss… chss…*

GRIM: ¿Qué es ese edificio de ahí? Con ese techo en forma de cebolla, se parece a Scarabia.

*chss… chssss…*

ORTHO: Es el estilo arquitectónico del País de la Arena Ardiente. Está tan reluciente que parece nuevo. 

*chsss… chsss…*

VIL: Hace tanto sol que siento que me va a atravesar la piel. Por cierto…

TODOS: ¡QUÉ CALORAZO!

SEBEK: ¡Uugh, estoy sudando sin hacer nada!

IDIA: M-mierda…

¡Si sube la temperatura interna de la tablet se va a apagar!

¡Me pasa por ser demasiado realista imaginando dispositivos…!

GRIM: ¡Fuaaaag! El suelo está tan caliente que siento pinchazos en las patitas, ¡no aguanto más!

¡Me voy a dar un bañito en esa fuente de ahí, ta’luego!

SEBEK: ¡Grim, que estamos en propiedad pública!

*¡plas!*

GRIM: Fuaa~ Qué fresquitas se me han quedado las patas.

VIL: Hay que ver, la fuente no es una piscina. ¡Sal ahora mismo de ahí!

SILVER: ¿Hm? Hay una estatua dorada en el centro de la fuente a la que se ha tirado Grim.

SILVER: Tengo la impresión de haber visto antes a ese abuelo. 

¿¿¿???: Ese abuelo es el benevolente gobernante del Oasis Legendario.

¿¿¿???: Era un hombre tan sincero que, ante cualquier preocupación, te aconsejaba sin tapujos…

… y te ayudaba a buscar una solución.

Y se dice que con el paso de las generaciones, fue cambiando las leyes de forma proactiva.

¿A que es genial?

¿¿¿???: En la Academia del Sultanato Qasr ¹ admiramos el espíritu altruista del benevolente gobernante del oasis.

GRIM: Pero si eres…

TODOS: ¡Kalim!

¹ Al parecer qasr (قصر) significa castillo o palacio en árabe y “saltanat” sultanato (سلطنة). Juntos harían “Castillo del Sultanato”.

Poesía pura, si me preguntan.

Me encantan los gritos de Vil, si podéis, id a escucharlos en el juego, jajaja. Son literalmente “KYAAAA”. 

Aquí está Kalim, estoy deseando ver cómo es su sueño y qué dilema se le presenta 👀 (Como alguien le haga pasarlo mal me m*to).

Un dato curioso sobre el pie de nota en el que explico que qasr significa castillo en árabe, es que la palabra “alcázar” viene de al-qasr, y que a su vez viene del latín castrum. Por tanto, en español decimos castillo por el latín (en este caso adaptado de castellum, diminutivo de castrum) y alcázar por el árabe y a su vez por el latín otra vez. Me ha parecido curioso que qasr suene un poco parecido a castillo y he hecho bien en investigarlo con un par de búsquedas en Google, la etimología siempre me sorprende :)

David Edwards at Raw Story:

A report from the Department of Justice's Office of Inspector General found "no evidence" to support the claims of Republican officials who alleged undercover FBI agents provoked the riot at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. In a comprehensive report released Thursday, the DOJ watchdog said it had reviewed evidence and testimony following the Jan. 6 riot, but there were no "undercover employees in the various protest crowds, or at the Capitol, on January 6." At least three confidential human sources were said to have been at the Capitol on Jan. 6, but "none of these three FBI CHSs were authorized to enter the Capitol or a restricted area, or to otherwise break the law."

[...] Conspiracy theorists have regularly referred to the event as a "fedsurrection." Earlier this year, a poll found that 25% of Americans believed the FBI "probably" or "definitely" instigated the violence that day.

A report from the DOJ’s Office of Inspector General debunks the bullshit “fedsurrection” narrative pushed by right-wing history revisionists who make excuses for the domestic terrorists who violently stormed the Capitol on 01.06.2021.
