Capitol riot hearing: FBI Director Wray says no evidence Antifa, 'fake Trump supporters' involved
Fox News, Mar 2, 2021

FBI Director Chris Wray testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee Tuesday that the bureau, to date, has not found any evidence showing Antifa members or "fake Trump supporters" participated in the Capitol riot.

Clarifying that the FBI does not evaluate perpetrators based on a left or right political spectrum, Wray testified that it’s clear a large and growing number of those arrested so far in connection to Jan. 6 could be categorized as militia violent extremists or racially motivated extremists, naming both the Oath Keepers and the Proud Boys groups.

In response to a question from Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., Wray clarified that FBI's ongoing investigations have not found Antifa involvement.

"We have not to date seen any evidence of anarchist violent extremists or people subscribing to Antifa," Wray said. "That doesn’t mean we’re not looking and we will continue to look."

Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., asked Wray to clarify rumors circulating online that "fake Trump supporters" might have infiltrated crowds that stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6 in an effort to disparage the former president.

"Do you have any evidence that the Capitol attack was organized by ‘fake Trump protesters?'" Durbin asked. To that, Wray responded, "We have not seen evidence of that at this stage."

Wray also declined to disclose or confirm the cause of death for Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick.

Josh Hawley on @OANN: "We learned very little today from Director Wray. We can't get straight answers from the FBI. We are due here for a bit of a reckoning to hold them accountable."

Garland's incoming team is already laying the groundwork for investigations into Trump supporters who weren't even present on Jan 6th.

Jake Sullivan urging Biden to accept the Garland approach to dealing with Trump supporters, per senior WH official. Wray also on board.

Biden staff already talking about plans to turn Jan 6 into another 9/11. Plan to hold events on the anniversary next year, per WH official. Want to open investigations of prominent Trump supporters, groups, and media outlets.

People really don't yet fully grasp how hard the Biden Administration & their allies in the Swamp are going to crack down on Trump supporters.

Would that be Jerry Pournelle?

They don't even really need to crack down that hard. Just by making these noises, they will achieve their goal of scaring them into silence. They will make people afraid to openly support Trump, or a similar candidate in the future. They will make people afraid to work for a Trump administration. They will pave the way to silence conservative news media.

Exactly what Mr. M and I said to one another when we saw a video clip on the news of Wray's comment.
A big, "well, duuhhhhh," and no one dares challenge him on it?

Lies from deep staters are par for the course. But where is a single republican to call them out?
