An undercover investigation conducted by a group named Sound Investigations, exposes an individual claiming affiliation with both the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) disclosed sensitive information. The individual, identified as Gavin O’Blennis, who portrays himself as a “contracting officer” for the CIA and a former FBI official, made startling admissions captured on a hidden camera.
The video has gone viral and many of the claims being made don’t match what the video (which is highly edited and full of jump cuts) actually says.
FBI Agents were present in January 6th Riot Crowd
Gavin O’Blennis mentions that FBI Agents were present in January 6th Riot Crowd. Some have taken this to mean that the FBI orchestrated the attack on the 2021 United States Capitol attack. Rather, what O’Blennis is that the FBI agents routinely do this to dissuade a riot (by “organically” nudging the crowd to pursue a calmer route) but in this case there weren’t enough agents in the crowd. There were 20, and 1,000 agents would be needed to manage a crowd of this size.
They can put Tucker Carlson/Alex Jones (or anyone) in Jail
Another claim making the rounds is that O’Blennis “admits” that they can put anyone in jail. However what O’Blennis states is that they can put people in positions to where their impulses lead them in a particular direction. It is certainly a bleak situation but the claim being made by those sharing the video implies that the “deep state” can simply fabricate charges and put someone in jail.
In fact, the Alex Jones situation highlights this. O’Blennis states that Alex Jones committed no federal crimes and hence, no charges could be brought. However, a civil suit (over defamation charges) could be brought, and so the parents of Sandy Hook victims did just that. The lawsuit was successful because Alex Jones really was guilty.
Ground News’ Coverage on this
According to Ground News, this story is mainly being covered by right and far right sources and has a rating or low to mixed factuality.
While the claims being made around this video are often exaggerated or even fabricated, these revelations (assuming they are true), nevertheless shed light on the clandestine operations and alleged strategies employed by intelligence agencies against perceived adversaries, raising questions about accountability and transparency within such organizations.
