I would love Madison to release names about those coke orgies he talked about. You know McCarthy was totally behind torpedoing his race!
I keep hearing some version of the following on conservative commentators: “The FBI says that the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers each had seditious conspiracies in place prior to January 6. And we now know that the FBI and ATF had 8 informants within the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers. So why didn’t the FBI stop January 6? They wanted it to happen!”
Like most fanciful conspiracy theories, this one is unlikely to be true. Here’s the much more likely explanation: The informants did not have the placement required to glean any useful information about the alleged ongoing conspiracy, and thus couldn’t provide it to their FBI handlers. Or the informants simply chose not to provide the information to their FBI handlers. Most likely, some combination of both of these explanations applied across the field of 8 informants.
These same commentators also continually conflate the terms Confidential Informant (CI) and Undercover Agent (UC). Obviously these are very different things.
CI’s are often poorly placed, but inflate their importance to get money or special treatment. And they often provide untrue information or make material omissions. When this happens, they’re rarely charged with obstruction, because doing so would compromise ongoing investigations and reveal sources and methods. And besides being poorly placed, CI’s will often hold back important information or provide untrue information. Once again, CI’s are NOT undercover law enforcement officers.

This post isn’t a commentary on the guilt or innocence of those targeted by these investigations. It’s simply a clarification of the nomenclature and procedures involved.

Archdiocese of Baltimore covered up child sexual abuse of over 600 victims, Maryland AG alleges
The state's top prosecutor filed a motion seeking approval from the Circuit Court of Baltimore City to release its 463-page report on abuse in the diocese to the public.
Nobody seems to know a single fixed income trader who has ever executed a trade with Tether or its associates entities. Given Tether’s purported balance sheet, how could that be possible?
How about CFTC Commitments of Traders reports showing Tether with positions in interest rate futures positions for purposes of hedging overnight imbalances and the like? Any institution of their size would surely be on some of of those. But they don’t seem to exist either.
If Tether simply chose not to hedge their duration risk, that would mean that their portfolio of fixed income securities would have taken an absolute bath over the last year, given that US and UK treasuries have sold off by about 50%, wiping out 10 years of gains.
Like FTX, Tether is also based in the Bahamas.
Tether is a house of cards.

They saved this special counsel move until after Trump formally announced, in an effort to ensure that the RNC can’t pay his legal bills.
SBF has still not been indicted, but the DOJ is appointing a special counsel to investigate Trump.
