THREAD: I’ve been chomping at the bit for @EpochJoe64 to get this story out . . .

Not only did Joe find video proof that Oath Keeper founder Stewart Rhodes was under active surveillance #Jan6, but . . . ⬇️

theepochtimes.com/us/exclusive-c…

We also had testimony in the first Oath Keeper’s trial that Rhodes and other OKs were being surveilled at the Million MAGA March on Dec. 12, 2020. @CapitolPolice Special Agent Ryan McCamley - their liaison officer to @FBI - who also officed at DC FBI headquarters . . . ⬇️

. . . testified that he was on covert surveillance duty that day, and claimed he chanced upon the Oath Keepers and someone looking like Stewart Rhodes, (around 5 pm), took their photo, and immediately sent it to “other agents.” ⬇️

SA McCamley claimed he only recognized Rhodes from an article he’d seen in Defense One, an imprint of The Atlantic. I find this aspect of his testimony to be rather dubious, considering we also learned in the Oath Keepers trial that Rhodes’ 2nd in command, Greg McWhirter . . .⬇️

. . . was a CHS informant, and had been secretly reporting to @FBI about Oath Keeper activities in the months leading up to #Jan6. (This was something that I and an NYTs journo reported on, having been present at the time of that leak, causing a firestorm during the trial.) ⬇️

We are being asked to believe that McCamley - liaison to @FBI - wasn’t already aware of McWhirter’s CHS status and wasn’t actively surveilling the OK’s on Dec. 12. I don’t think so, considering we now have proof Rhodes was being followed on #Jan6, from the USCP command center. ⬇️

We are also being asked to believe that #Jan6 was the result of an “intelligence failure,” and the reason given to us for USCP’s being so unprepared and under-manned that day. (While numerous USCP officers themselves believe they were "set up.") ⬇️

Given that we’ve learned both CJCS Gen. Milley and acting SecDef Miller wanted to lockdown DC on #Jan6 and cancel all protest permits, and that @FBI had tactical forces from multiple 3-letter agencies and Army special forces deployed in and around the Capitol . . . ⬇️

. . . this argument of “typical government incompetence” and “intelligence failure” is quickly falling apart. It’s becoming evermore apparent that the KNOWN intel of planned violence against Congress and the Capitol Building was ALLOWED to take place. ⬇️

@FBI / @CapitolPolice liaison officer McCamley either purposefully withheld intelligence from Asst. Chief Pittman, (head of USCP intel), or Pittman suppressed the dissemination of that intelligence to then-Chief Sund, her downline commanders, and their frontline officers.

@ProudArmymom66 @EpochJoe64 you'll know when it drops
