There are questions regarding FBI informants that were in

Trump clothing around the Capitol on that day throughout the crowd. Do you have any insights for us regarding their role in those events, the FBI's role? I personally don't. That's the committee. I would make sure to go look at that and see all that and we'd get more information. I know the director of the FBI has been asked this question numerous times. Thomas Massa is one who's been working on this and I think he'd have greater insight for you. Apparently a $787 million settlement does not change any behavior of Maria Bartiromo or anybody at Fox who continue to lie. And of course, former Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy is totally spineless.

I'm Ben Micellpe from the January 6th insurrection to help fuel all of the MAGA Republican conspiracies about the insurrection. And we saw this in the various congressional hearings. This is being spread by actual leaders in the House of Representatives and MAGA Republicans in the House and Senate who are saying that January 6th was actually an operation that was spurred on and initiated by the FBI. And all of the people that we see with the MAGA hats and pretending to be Trump supporters, they are actually FBI agents. And even though we all saw what went down on January 6th, We are all to believe this was supposed to be a peaceful event. And the MAGA Republicans clip like three seconds of it with people walking out

and go, see, you see, look, it was a peaceful event. And so one of the biggest new conspiracies with the release of this footage, because they latch on to these very small portions of it, is that an individual who was a Trump supporter was actually an FBI agent. And they say that this individual in the video was showing people in the Capitol building a badge that he was an FBI agent. In fact, this is completely and utterly false. The individual was a convicted January 6th insurrectionist by the name of Kevin Lyons from Chicago. We know about this because there have been over a thousand prosecutions of January 6th insurrectionists. This insurrectionist was convicted back in April of 2023, was sentenced to four years,

called himself an idiot at the sentencing hearing, and we know all about it. So let me just show you right now, this is being spread at the highest levels of MAGA Republican leadership. For example, here is MAGA Republican Senator Mike Lee, and here's what Mike Lee is posting on X or Twitter or whatever you want to call it. He says, I can't wait to ask FBI Director Christopher Wray about this at our next oversight hearing. I predict that, as always, his answers will be 97% information-free, attacking the Republican FBI Director Christopher Wray, who was appointed by Donald Trump in 2017. And what Mike Lee was responding to was a post by someone named Derek Evans, some right-wing MAGA person who says, this was sent to me. Is this person flashing a badge? If so, this would prove there were undercover federal agents disguised as MAGA.

I was thrown into solitary confinement for peacefully protesting. I just want the truth to be known. Please RT so we can get the truth either way. Well, we know the truth. We don't need to RT, retweet, or repost it. We can actually go to the facts. I'm going to show you in a moment Kevin Lyons holding the vape, but just take a look at all of the right wing MAGA influencers as the platform formerly known as Twitter, now known as X, has, in my opinion, become one of the single biggest disinformation spreaders in the history of mankind. Here are other MAGA people go, Fed badge in his right hand, jihadi's face covering, decoy MAGA hat blowing through security as if the checkpoints were prepared and accustomed to many more doing the same.

Hashtag fedsurrection. That's what the MAGA leadership, like actual, by the way, I mean, this is like a MAGA influencer right-wing person, but like you've got the MAGA senators and MAGA Congress members calling the insurrection a fedsurrection. They go hashtag fedsurrection to distract from election theft. Then you got this other right-wing influencer who goes, and that, ladies and gentlemen, is a badge with a red hat and fully disguised. Here's another person who posts, heavily disguised fedsurrectionist showing his badge in the Capitol on January 6th. One of the big Trump

influencer accounts goes, wow, just one of the many federal agents caught on the J6 tapes. This one is flashing his badge to Capitol Police in order to let him through. Do you think January 6th was an inside job? Benny Johnson, who works with Charlie Kirk, one of the leaders there at Turning Points, and has all this right-wing money being funneled into it. He goes, there it is, an undercover federal agent with badge fully disguised as a Trump supporter inside the U.S. Capitol on January 6th. January 6th was a Fed setup. Cops opened the doors inside job. All January 6thers should be released on the grounds

of entrapment. I'll just show you one more and then let's actually get into the facts. Grant Stitchfield writes, the J6 fedsurrection disguised law enforcement officer flashes his badge. I'll have to show you this one of Marjorie Taylor Greene who got in on the action as well. And every peaceful J6er must be released. Charges dropped, records expunged. I'm calling on at Speaker Johnson to create a J6 select committee. Releasing the tapes is not enough. There needs to be an investigation and accountability for all of the lies, deceit, and lives ruined.

Every member of the J6 committee, Nancy Pelosi, FBI, DOJ, then she lists everything. I mean, these are the rantings and ravings of lunatics, but these are now the leaders in the Republican Party that has gone full-blown MAGA. Your pets are a member of the family.

I don't know where, if we actually cared about the facts, I don't know, maybe a simple Google search of the Department of Justice's factual information. Maybe we can look into who this individual is. We'd find out that it's Kevin Lyons. Kevin Lyons. You see him right here before entering the Capitol building. Pull up this photo. This was posted by Corey Cullington. That's J6 convict Kevin Lyons holding a vape. And it appears that he's quite fond of his vape. Zoom in. You see the vape right there that he is holding. We have photos of him actually in the Capitol building. And we know about this because he was convicted.

He went through, he was arrested. He spoke with FBI agents. there was a trial, there was a sentencing where he went in front of Judge Beryl Howell. And so we know all of this. This was the headline by NBC at sentencing, idiot January 6th rioter who stole John Lewis photo from Nancy Pelosi's office gets four years. The judge, Beryl Howell, said it was ironic that Kevin Lyons called police officers Nazis on January 6th because the attack on the U.S. Capitol was about the most fascistic thing she'd seen. That's what the federal judge says. And look, there he is right here during the riot. We have Lyons was screaming at the Capitol Police using expletives. He also stole a wallet with $150 of cash in it from the jacket of a staffer. And he's the one that they're all saying this proves that this was all an inside job,

that this was a hashtag Fed-surrection. We know who this individual is. Pro tip, not a Fed at all. And again, we can go through the information in the charging documents by this individual. He was interviewed by FBI agents after January 6th. He posted photos of himself when he was on or around or near a Nancy Pelosi's office shortly thereafter, spoke with FBI agents, was arrested, was prosecuted. And there we have it. By the way, Mike Lee,

whose social media handle is at based B-A-S-E-D, Mike Lee. I mean, it's just so unprofessional, so strange. He calls himself based Mike Lee. And then Liz Cheney goes, hey, at Based Mike Lee, heads up, a nutball conspiracy theorist appears to be posting from your account right now. It was a good jab by Liz Cheney right there. And then if you just continue to go through the record here, it is filled with actual data, which I think we should all care about here on the Midas Touch network. And so I'll show you this clip right here. This is MAGA Republican Clay Higgins further spreading these lies, attacking FBI Director Christopher Wray last week and saying, you know, aren't you aware that these are ghostbusters? And then the Republican FBI director has to actually say, if this is not

an inside job, what are you talking about? Here, play this clip. If you are asking whether the violence at the Capitol on January 6th was part of some operation orchestrated by FBI sources and or agents, the answer is emphatically not. You're saying no? No. You're saying no? Okay. Not violence orchestrated by FBI sources or agents. Are you familiar with, you know what a ghost vehicle is? Director, you're director of the FBI, certainly should. You know what a ghost bus is? A ghost bus? Ghost bus. I'm not sure I've used that term before. Okay. It's pretty common in law enforcement.

It's a vehicle that's used for secret purposes. It's painted over. These two buses in the middle here, they were the first to arrive at Union Station on January 6th. Zero five hundred. I have all this evidence. I'm showing you a tip of this iceberg. Mr. Chairman. These two buses are painted completely white. Point of order. This is a very significant

hearing, Mr. Chairman. And these buses are nefarious in nature and were filled with FBI informants dressed as Trump supporters. Deploy it onto our Capitol on January 6th. Your day is coming, Mr. Wright.

And look, folks, most people, if you were to spread a lie like this, you'd have some degree of shame and you would feel bad and you would apologize. But not with these MAGA Republicans. They're going to go in, put all the disinfo. It's a game to them to try to manipulate the American people for their grift, for their power, for their money. Why wouldn't they just show the actual facts if that wasn't the case? Why wouldn't they show that was someone holding up the vape who's been found guilty, who's been sentenced to four years. We know who this individual is. It's not a Fed. It's not a Fed-surrection. But no, they'll just move on to the next one, move on to the next one, move on to the next one. And then you have people like Kevin McCarthy who know what they're doing,

and he is just smiling. He likes the disinfo. They like the chaos because, frankly, they hate America. There's no other conclusion that you can reach. And these MAGA Republicans hate the fact that America is a democracy. They hate the fact that America is an intelligent country. They want to undermine all of that.
