Published | Video Starts at 01:47

Well, again, what happens with government disclosure is it's always, you know, limited hangouts, modified limited hangouts. They'll give you some truth. They may give you lies, but they never share the whole story. And so We do know that there were individuals who were affiliated, confidential human sources, people that worked with the FBI, not necessarily for them in the crowd [on January 6th]. but the inspector general report only talked about them and didn't open up its aperture and talk about other potential federal agents that might have also been in the crowd tasked to do specific things. (01:47–01:58)
