Incoming: I have transcript of yesterday's hearing in Judge Kelly's courtroom about last-minute revelation a trusted confidante to some of the defendants was an FBI informant for nearly 2 years.
Defense attorney notes other issues with unknown FBI informants in the case
DOJ claimed they didn't instruct the FBI informant to collect intel on defendants, attys, etc but here's one defense attorney telling Judge Kelly about her outreach to him:
This FBI informant seemed to be most solicitous of defendant Joe Biggs--his attorney explains here:
This is pure 🔥🔥🔥 and should be sent to every representative on @JudiciaryGOP.
I've recommended a public and thorough vetting of FBI CHS program, which is mostly used to entrap citizens to build right-wing "domestic terror" threat
As I pointed out on Laura Ingraham last night--just like Whitmer fednapping---there are MORE FBI informants than defendants in Proud Boys case:
Defense lawyer asked DOJ if 2 other defense witnesses are also FBI informants (CHS).
Prosecutors did not answer.
And I'll leave it here for now.
One defense lawyer starts to raise DOJ tactics to Cuba, where he was born.
Judge Kelly, the rubber stamp for all this, cuts him off
