You must be talking about Trump as he tried for a c**p on J** 6th 2021 Trump's GOP is just plain d********g
https://justthenews.com/politics-policy/all-things-trump/will-trump-special-prosecutor-backfire-democrats-some-think-so-andMany in traditional news media have suggested the Biden Justice Department's appointment of Special Counsel Jack Smith to investigate Donald Trump is an ominous sign for the former president. But famed television journalist and best-selling author Bill O'Reilly has a different take, predicting it will boomerang on Democrats.
O'Reilly told the "Just the News, Not Noise" television show that Attorney General Merrick Garland's appointee will have to probe what the FBI knew in advance of the J*** 6 r**t, whether law enforcement could have done more to prevent the tragedy, and why a reported eight bureau assets were embedded among the protesters who went to the Capitol that day. Those are all issues the Democrat-led House Committee on J*** 6 failed to address.
Garland's appointment of another special counsel to investigate Trump is "a drastic mistake," warned O'Reilly.
"In order for [Jack Smith] to investigate what Trump did or did not do on J*** 6, he has to get into the FBI and what the FBI did or did not do," O'Reilly explained in a wide-ranging interview Tuesday night. "He has to. He can't bury it."
Noting that the New York Times reported that "there were at least eight FBI agents embedded in the most virulent protesters that day," the former longtime anchor of Fox News Channel's prime-time ratings hit "The O'Reilly Factor" said: "They were there. The FBI was there. Well, what the deuce were they doing?"
That very issue came up at a recent House committee hearing during questioning of FBI Director Christopher Wray, who pointedly refused to answer whether FBI assets were dressed in pro-Trump garb at the Capitol when the r**ts occurred but adamantly denied any FBI personnel instigated the attacks that day.
"Did the FBI have confidential human sources embedded within the J****** 6 protests on J****** 6, 2021?" Rep. Clay Higgins (R-La.) asked Wray.
"As I'm sure you can appreciate, I have to be very careful about what I can say about when and where we do and do not use confidential human sources," the director answered before Higgins interjected another question.
"May I finish?" Wray protested. "But to the extent there is the suggestion that the FBI's confidential human sources or FBI employees in some way instigated or orchestrated J** 6th, that's categorically false."
Higgins persisted. "Did you have confidential human sources dressed as Trump supporters inside the Capitol on J****** 6, prior to the doors being opened?" he asked.
"Again, I have to be very careful," Wray said.
"It should be a no!" Higgins shot back. "Can you not tell the American people, 'No, we did not have confidential human sources dressed as Trump supporters positioned inside the Capitol on J****** 6.'?"
"You should not read anything into my decision not to share information on confidential human sources," Wray answered.
O'Reilly said the pursuit of an answer to that question is not a conspiracy theory. He does not believe the FBI instigated the attacks. But the presence of informants would suggest the bureau suspected something bad may happen that day that could have been prevented, he explained.
During the Wray hearing last week, "the question," O'Reilly said, "was simple: Did any FBI agents dress up like Trump supporters and go into that Capitol? And Ray would not answer the question. Now, that should raise f**gs everywhere.
"I don't think Garland even considered that when he was mocking up the special counsel. I don't think he even considered it, but that — if it's proven to be true, and I'm not a conspiracy guy, I don't believe the FBI instigated anything — but if the FBI knew what was gonna happen and didn't report it to the White House and to the Justice Department, all hell's gonna break loose in this country."
The question of what the FBI knew and what it conveyed to C*****l P****e and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's and Senate Leader Chuck Schumer's teams is also an important question for Republicans taking over the House in January.
