MTG’s speculation is based on false reporting of FBI informants infiltrating protests and past covert operations—zero proof dealing with current events. https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2021/nov/04/tucker-carlson/tucker-carlsons-conspiracy-theory-about-fbi-and-ja/ https://www.factcheck.org/2022/01/jan-6-conspiracy-theory-centers-on-baseless-claim-about-ray-epps/
