THREAD: Leaked FBI docs published by the Gateway Pundit regarding a Confidential Human Source the FBI had in the Kansas City Proud Boys

The CHS was prior to the December 12 pro-Trump rally in DC: "CHS stated there are no discussions of pre-planned violence"

1/?

"CHS stated the rally in Washington DC on January 6th should be concern"

However, this was based on publicly available posts on 4chan/reddit, not internal PB communications

2/?

CHS appears to have been authorized to travel to DC on January 6th, and instructed to make contact with two subjects of "full field investigations" (names are redacted)

3/?

"What individuals or groups are threatening violence in response to the arrest of Tarrio?"

"There are no plans for violence... CHS stated the plan remained the same and the only violence will be self-defense from Antifa or other leftist groups."

4/?

FBI met with the CHS on January 6th and made this report

"CHS stated the Proud Boys were not involved in, nor did they inspire the breaking of the barriers at the U.S. Capitol building"

5/?

"CHS stated that the KC Proud Boys (KCPD) in attendance at the rally entered the Capitol building 30 minutes after the building was breached to help deescalate Trump supporters and law enforcement"

(Same document as last tweet)

6/?

Here are the FBI/DOJ reports that their Confidential Human Source committed "Unauthorized Illegal Activity" by entering the Capitol Building

"The public was not at risk as a result of the CHS's conduct"

"The CHS is extremely receptive to FBI directions and admonishments"

7/?

CHS sent the FBI to a video of a fellow Kansas City Proud Boy asking "Do you want your house back?" then yelling "Take it!"

FBI Synopsis: "Identification of a Kansas City-based individual who incited a riot at the U.S. Capitol on 01/06/2021"

8/?

FBI HQ wanted to know if the CHS was willing to return to the Capitol on the 20th for the inauguration (he was)

However, no one else was going to show up

9/?

FBI spent 59.62$ on a January 21 debrief with the CHS

Total paid amounts are redacted

10/?

02/04/2021: "CHS reported many Proud Boy chapters are disbanding, including Kansas City Proud Boys. Due to the label to terrorist organization being used in Canada, and concern of being called terrorists by the Biden administration."

11/?

From the "KC Refugees" Telegram channel:

"There was only 1 member and the other 2 were prospects. (1st degree)"

"Prez gave out a code of conduct to everyone wanting to go and Billy violated that man" (Billy is mentioned in one of the documents above as "inciting a riot")

12/?

"The KC Proud Boys (KCPD) was specifically told to not start anything, and to maintain a defensive status..."

"For example, the group decided that Ryan Ashlock was going to attend the rally under the CHS's wing because Ashlock had made inflammatory posts..."

13/?

"The KCPD attending the 1/6/2021 rally discussed reports that Antifa was going to be dressed in plain cloths [sic] like Trump supporters. Accordingly, the KCPD members attending the rally were instructed to dress similarly and not wear Proud Boy colors."

(same document)

14/?

"The KCPB believed they were attending the rally on 1/6/2021 to prevent Antifa from attacking Trump supporters."

"The group discussed not carrying weapons because that would be seen as offensive, and would detract from their defensive stance..."

(same document)

15/?

"Nobody discussed breaking barriers of taking any action with respect to the U.S. Capitol."

"The CHS described the group as just walking and following the people who seemed to be leading it. At that point, there was no talk or rumors of taking the Capitol building..."

16/?

"The CHS informed the handling agent contemporaneously with the first barrier taken down outside the U.S. Capitol"

17/?

"The CHS considered whether the FBI would approve or if the FBI would want the DHS to observe what was taking place inside the building. The CHS ultimately overheard someone in the crowd state they hoped nobody was stealing or destroying this of historical significance..."

18/?

(cont) "After hearing this, the CHS determined that there was justification for entering the U.S. Capitol building to prevent or observe and document individuals doing those types of acts."

19/?

"The CHS did not touch or take anything in the U.S. Capitol building. The CHS did not break anything. The CHS entered through an unobstructed door, and did not force her/his way into any area..."

Apparently the CHS didn't do the same things most of those charged didn't do

20/?

On January 13th, the FBI re-admonished the CHS that
"CHS is not to participate in unauthorized illegal activity."
"CHS has no immunity for participation in such unauthorized illegal activity."

Despite a lack of immunity, the CHS seems to have avoided charges

21/?

Last page: "CHS reported she/he brought two motorcycle helmets and personal body armor that was worn that day"

"The CHS also reported that Chris Khune handed the CHS pepper spray...but the spray was never used."

Apparently FBI informants were involved in "arming" the PBs

22/?

Current link to the pdf dropbox.com/s/mdcr198jrp4t…

Text correspondence between CHS and handler (1-4/7)

I assume the times are one hour off bc the handler is in Kansas (so add one hour for the DC time the texts were sent)

The first barriers came down at ~12:55pm DC time

23/?

Text correspondence between CHS and handler (5-7/7)

I assume the times are one hour off bc the handler is in Kansas (so add one hour for the DC time the texts were sent)
