A defense attorney for members of the Oath Keepers organization who have been charged with seditious conspiracy in connection with the Jan. 6, 2021 false flag at the U.S. Capitol Building says that scores of federal "assets" were present in the building that day. David W. Fischer, attorney for Thomas E. Caldwell of Berryville, Va., filed a motion with U.S. District Judge Amit P. Mehta in Washington, D.C., seeking to dismiss the conspiracy and obstruction charges against 10 members of the group, The Epoch Times reported. While Caldwell is listed in the indictment, he is not a member of the Oath Keepers, the outlet reported in March. “At least 20 FBI and ATF assets were embedded around the Capitol on J6,” says a footnote on page 6 of the 41-page motion, though no other details were provided. The Epoch Times added: In addition to the information about law-enforcement assets on the ground at the Capitol, the footnote says, the Oath Keepers “were being monitored and recorded prior to J6.” An examination of evidence turned over in discovery by prosecutors in two major Oath Keepers cases has “not found one iota of proof” that defendants “had any plan, intention, design, or scheme to specifically enter the Capitol Building on J6,” the motion says. Fischer told The Epoch Times he couldn’t comment on the motion or provide more details on the footnote. There have been reports for months that federal agents were replete in the crowds that descended on the Capitol Building, with many suggesting that it was a straight-up false flag attack with one objective: Blaming it all on then-President Donald Trump so as to permanently tarnish him in the eyes of Americans. During a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Jan. 11, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) pressed top FBI officials about the allegations. “How many FBI agents or confidential informants actively participated in the events of Jan. 6?” Cruz asked Jill Sanborn, executive assistant director of the FBI’s National Security Branch. “Sir, I’m sure you can appreciate that I can’t go into the specifics of sources and methods,” Sanborn responded. Cruz replied, “Did any FBI agents or confidential informants actively participate in the events of Jan. 6, yes or no?” “Sir, I can’t answer that,” Sanborn replied. “Did any FBI agents or confidential informants commit crimes of violence on Jan. 6?” Cruz pressed. “I can’t answer that, sir,” Sanborn said. Jeremy M. Brown, an Oath Keepers member from Florida who is not part of either major Oath Keepers conspiracy case but has nonetheless been charged with two counts related to Jan. 6, told The Epoch Times that the FBI attempted to recruit him in December 2020 as a plant and spy. He refused; he was summarily arrested by a swarm of FBI agents in September 2021, months after the incident. “When asked by me and my girlfriend to produce the warrants at the time of arrest, they refused to produce them,” Brown told the outlet. “One agent was even recorded stating, ‘We don’t know what we are looking for yet.’ They should look for a copy of the Constitution and read it.” A noted expert has said he saw trained cadres suggesting federal agitators moving toward the U.S. Capitol ahead of the riot on Jan. 6. J. Michael Waller, who was at the Capitol that day, wrote about what he saw in a piece for The Federalist a week after the breach:
  • Plainclothes militants. Militant, aggressive men in Donald Trump and MAGA gear at a front police line at the base of the temporary presidential inaugural platform;
  • Agents-provocateurs. Scattered groups of men exhorting the marchers to gather closely and tightly toward the center of the outside of the Capitol building and prevent them from leaving;
  • Fake Trump protesters. A few young men wearing Trump or MAGA hats backwards and who did not fit in with the rest of the crowd in terms of their actions and demeanor, whom I presumed to be Antifa or other leftist agitators; and
  • Disciplined, uniformed column of attackers. A column of organized, disciplined men, wearing similar but not identical camouflage uniforms and black gear, some with helmets and GoPro cameras or wearing subdued Punisher skull patches.
