More evidence has emerged of infiltration of America's dissident political eco-system by Federal authorities. Even worse, it seems that the infiltration happened at the highest levels. The evidence emerged in a heavily-redacted 22-page statement by a nameless veteran FBI counterintelligence agent to the Senate Judiciary Committee. The report was then leaked and posted in mid-July to a Substack newsletter.
According to the report by the Senior Special Agent, which mainly focused om links between Rudy Giuliani and Kremlin-controlled funds, the agent also had an influential source in the dissident right who was codenamed "Genius" and who supplied him with information on so-called "racist extremists" around the time of the January 6 Capitol Riot in 2021.
As reported by Business Insider:
The whistleblower recounts how one of his sources, code-named Genius, won the trust of racist extremists whom the bureau investigated for their role in the January 6 violence. Genius was able to do so because he had credibility on the far-right political fringe. Nevertheless, the whistleblower claims, the FBI ordered that the source be closed, supposedly for making the same kinds of "inappropriate" comments on social media that had earned him access to some of the leaders of the insurrection.
Already speculation is rife on who "Genius" could be, with some assuming it could only be Nick Fuentes.
Fuentes definitely ticks all the boxes. Not only does he strike many as a morally hollow individual who prioritises his own personal interests, but he has been subjected to pressure from Federal authorities in the past, most notably over his rather suspicious funding. He also has the kind of insufferable arrogance that would lead him to being ironically codenamed "Genius" by his handlers. Also, the timing seems about right, with Fuentes's prominence in the wider dissident right dating from somewhat before the events mentioned in the report. Also, unlike many other DR participants in J6 Fuentes has yet to serve jail time.
But it is not impossible that the source could be someone like Richard Spencer, Milo Yiannoupolus, or even Baked Alaska, whose ideological trajectories have been extremely odd to say the least.
But, regardless of which telegenic sub-masculine figure "Genius" ultimately turns out to be, this is yet more evidence of extreme Deep State interference in dissident political movements.

Colin, this Genius informant is not Nick Fuentes or probably anyone you've heard of. I have read the Business Insider article as well as the Whistleblower's 22-page complaint to the Senate committee. To make a long story short, this Whistleblower is an asshole. He was operating independently with little supervision and cultivating informants in Ukraine and Russia. He was trained to speak, read, and write Russian by the FBI, which makes me think he might have a Russian-American background, which means he's Jewish. The 22-page report does not mention the word "Jew" at all, despite the fact that all the people he names are Jewish. That is a pretty big omission and I believe that is what was motivating the Whistleblower to attack Trump and Giuliani, as well as the usual Trump Derangement Syndrome. The complaint to the Senate repeatedly gives examples of how the FBI tried to rein-in his paranoid and intrusive behavior, which he repeatedly disobeyed. The document gives the impression the Whistleblower is a paranoid conspiritard himself.
ReplyDeleteThe way Business Insider describes the contents of the 22-page
The Business Insider write-up of the 22-page complaint is highly tendentious and paints over the paranoid nature of the Whistleblower. This is the sort of politically motivated FBI agent Rep. Jim Jordan is warning us about. The Whistleblower is clearly out to get Trump for his own reasons and recurrently disobeyed FBI officials. As for his involvement with Genius, the far-right informant, it appears in the report as a non sequitur totally disconnected from the rest of the Whistleblower's activities. There is no attempt to connect Genius with Russian/Ukrainian intelligence that was his focus, leading me to believe that the Whistleblower was digging up dirt on Trump and his allies from anywhere he could get it.
ReplyDeleteAfter reading the 22-page complaint by the Whistleblower, I conclude he is a rogue agent operating without supervision or approval from his superiors. His involvement with Genius was his own project and does not speak to a larger collaboration between the Right and the FBI. None of the people Colin names are likely to be Genius.
ReplyDeleteRumors are all over the place about Spencer and Baked Alaska having a sexual relationship.
ReplyDeleteI think it’s more likely that Richard Spencer was the informant. When J6 occurred, Fuentes wasn’t popular enough for the Feds to bother with him. Richard Spencer still hasn’t been arrested for his role in Charlottesville.
Anything to back up those rather "colourful" rumours? My take on Richard is that he's "sub-masculine" and has difficulty relating to women, but there is no clear evidence that I know of that he is actually gay.
DeleteIs this another one of your "some stuff is implied so it must be" takes you already pulled when you claimed Spencer is a Fed?
ReplyDeleteI don't think I have claimed categorically that Spencer is a Fed or a gay, but it is odd that he assumed his children were not his own (clearly a submasculine) and, tell me, how do you explain this interesting snippet from his SPLC buddies?: MORE "EVIDENCE" OF SPENCER WORKING FOR THE FEDS SEEPS OUT
