Former Federal `Informant' Warned of Antifa, BLM Infiltrators at Capitol on Jan6

   Law enforcement aware large crowds would be travelling to Capitol from the
   Ellipse, documents show

   The man whose posting on social media warned authorities that agent
   provocateurs from Antifa and Black Lives Matter would be at the U.S.
   Capitol dressed as Trump supporters on Jan. 6, 2021, is a self-described
   government informant tied to former deputy attorney general Rod
   Rosenstein.

   Rosenstein warned about a “soft coup” against then-President Donald
   Trump in fall 2020.

   On Jan. 4, 2021, an account under the name @JohnHereToHelp posted on
   Twitter that Antifa and BLM agitators were being bussed from Baltimore to
   Washington to cause trouble at the Capitol on the day of Trump’s speech
   at the Ellipse.

   “Pantifa/BLM, Balt./DC branches, are already bussing people in to
   disturb Jan. 6,” the post read. “Orders [were] given to dress like
   ‘MAGA,’ blend in [and] cause trouble, especially around cameras. At
   night, arson has been ordered. All to be blamed on Trump supporters
   attending. Please be careful.”

   The post caught the attention of an assistant commander in the
   Intelligence and Counterterrorism Branch of the United States Park Police,
   who forwarded it to officials at the U.S. Capitol Police, the D.C.
   Metropolitan Police Department, the Department of Homeland Security, and
   other agencies.

   The now-suspended Twitter account belonged to Ryan Dark White, also known
   as Jon McGreevey.

   McGreevey has described himself in court papers and interviews as a former
   Department of Justice informant who supplied information on corruption in
   the federal government, law enforcement, and the Trump administration.

   He once used the name Ryan White as a cover but now identifies as
   McGreevey. He is running for federal office in Maryland.

   JohnHereToHelp’s original post was shared more than 6,000 times before
   it hit the radar of the Park Police.

   At the time, McGreevey had more than 120,000 followers on Twitter,
   according to an archived version of his page stored at the Wayback
   Machine.

   Twitter later suspended his account.

   “There are multiple replies to this comment that says BLM/Antifa will
   wear MAGA hats backwards, wear camo, and attempt to blend in with MAGA
   crowd,” the Park Police official wrote to his colleagues on January 5,
   2021.

   The Wayback Machine archive of White’s post shows nearly 600 replies,
   but the replies are not visible from links on the website.

Infiltrator Warning

   The emails, part of a trove of documents obtained in 2021 through a
   Freedom of Information Act lawsuit by Judicial Watch, show that federal
   law enforcement knew that infiltrators could be among the crowds at the
   Capitol.

   They also back up anecdotal reports of BLM and Antifa activists from
   Oregon, Maryland, and other states causing disruption and committing
   vandalism on Jan. 6.

   Trump supporters tangled with alleged Antifa provocateurs in several spots
   on Jan. 6, including the Lower West Terrace of the Capitol.

   Victoria White of Rochester, Minnesota, scuffled with a man attempting to
   break an arched window adjacent to the Capitol’s tunnel entrance.

   As the tightly-packed crowd chanted “[expletive] Antifa,” White
   wrestled for control of the red wooden club wielded by the man, who wore a
   green helmet with Trump stickers.

   “I'm like, ‘We don't do that. We don't do that. Trump supporters, we
   don't do that,’” White told The Epoch Times in an interview for an
   upcoming documentary, “The Real Story of January 6,” on Epoch TV.

   “And then there's other people [who said] ‘No, we're all on the same
   team.’ I'm like, ‘No. No, we're not.’

   from a protester as the crowd shouted "[expletive] Antifa!" at the U.S.
   Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. (Screenshot via The Epoch Times)“Who brings
   something like that to a Trump rally, let alone to break out the Capitol
   windows?” White said. “That's not us. That's not what patriot
   Americans do. We don't do that stuff.”

   After another man got control of the club and began smashing the window,
   White helped pull him down before she was pulled away by other bystanders.

   Members of the crowd vented anger at the vandals. “We are not Antifa!”
   one protester shouted. A man with a green stocking cap pulled over his
   MAGA hat pulled what appeared to be a stereo speaker from a backpack,
   spurring more howls of protest from the crowd.

   At the same window, the crowd shouted at a man dressed all in black.
   “No, no, Antifa!” a woman yelled from the crowd. “Antifa’s
   breaking the windows! Antifa’s breaking the windows!”

   While conducting a live stream on January 6, independent journalist Tayler
   Hansen recognized a protester in a gas mask from her appearance at riots
   in Portland, Oregon.

   “I recognize you from Portland,” Hansen told the woman as she quickly
   turned away from the camera.

   “So you’ve got Antifa here, too. You have Antifa and Trump supporters
   within the same vicinity here for the same thing. This is absolutely
   [expletive] crazy.”

   IFrame

   The documents obtained by Judicial Watch include other disclosures that
   run counter to the prevailing Jan. 6 narrative that a mob incited by Trump
   rampaged to the Capitol to storm the building and upend the counting of
   Electoral College votes.

   A “Daily Operational Snapshot” circulated by U.S. Park Police on Jan.
   5 noted multiple events planned for the area around the Capitol.

   “Large crowds expected to gather at and travel between the Ellipse and
   the U.S. Capitol,” the document said.

   Other scheduled events included a Freedom Rally, Jericho March, the March
   for Trump, and the “Wild Protest.”

   A MAGA Rally Map Guide said of the Wild Protest: “We the people must
   take to the U.S. Capitol lawn and steps and tell Congress #DoNot Certify
   on #Jan6!” U.S. Park Police circulated a copy of the map to other
   agencies.

   The WildProtest.com website said, “The Congress cannot certify this
   fraudulent Electoral College. Our presence in Washington D.C. will let
   Members of Congress know that we stand with Rep. Mo Brooks and his
   colleagues in the House of Representatives who will bravely object to the
   certification of the Electoral College.”

   The activist group ShutDownDC circulated a statement asking people to call
   hotels and demand they cancel reservations of “people coming to town to
   undermine democracy on Jan. 6.”

Whistleblower Role?

   McGreevey posted on social media and his own website that he was a
   longtime informant for the Department of Justice.

   He said he worked under Rosenstein, who became a central figure in the
   Trump Russiagate scandal.

   According to McGreevey, Rosenstein ran what was nicknamed the “Dirty
   Tricks Squad” out of the Baltimore office of the U.S. Attorney.

   The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Washington did not respond to a request
   from The Epoch Times for comment on McGreevey’s warning about Antifa or
   his allegations about Rosenstein and the Department of Justice.

   McGreevey accused the federal government of conducting illegal
   surveillance on journalists, federal judges, political rivals, and other
   Americans, planting evidence in criminal cases, and other criminal acts.

   In August 2020, he warned of a “covert coup” to be carried out by
   Democrats via the forthcoming presidential election.

   McGreevey also made other explosive allegations in 2021 court papers,
   accusing Vice President Mike Pence, Supreme Court Chief Justice John
   Roberts, and others of sexual impropriety.

   McGreevey said the DOJ had scrubbed online and offline records of his
   academic achievements and military service.

   He is one of 10 Republicans on the ballot in the primary for the U.S.
   Senate in Maryland. The primary will be July 19.
