Conflicting Reports Emerge on FBI's Role in Jan. 6 Capitol Riot

A new report by Inspector General Michael Horowitz confirms that there were no undercover FBI agents at the U.S. Capitol or the rally on January 6, 2021, debunking conspiracy theories that law enforcement instigated the riot. The report found that 26 informants were present in Washington, D.C., but they were not directed by the FBI to break the law or enter restricted areas. The FBI was found to have taken significant steps to prepare for the event, though it was advised to improve its information-gathering processes for future security threats.

Jan. 6 Rally Organizers Concealed Capitol March Plan, Government Report Reveals

Women for America First, the pro-Trump group that organized the "Save America" rally on January 6, 2021, intentionally lied to federal officials about President Donald J. Trump's plans to have his supporters march to the Capitol, according to a new inspector general investigation. The report found that the organization repeatedly denied to the National Park Service that there would be a march, while privately planning for one. Text messages and emails revealed that the organizers knew about the march but concealed their intentions. This report adds to the evidence that Trump and his supporters planned in advance to direct the crowds to Capitol Hill and worked to hide their intentions.

The Justice Department's inspector general released a report on Tuesday that found Jeffrey Epstein died by suicide, not foul play, due to negligence and mismanagement at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan. The report revealed that the jail's staff members allowed Epstein to hoard extra blankets, linens, bedding, and clothing, despite the fact that he had tried to hang himself earlier. The inspector general referred two supervisors at the facility responsible for ensuring Epstein's safety for criminal prosecution, but prosecutors declined to bring charges.

US Continues to Provide Military Aid to Ukraine Despite Equipment Issues.

The US Army's 401st Army Field Support Battalion and contractor Amentum Services have been faulted by the Defense Department's inspector general for failing to maintain equipment, including M777 howitzers and M1167 Humvees, that were set to be sent to Ukraine. The faulty equipment could have endangered the lives of Ukrainian or US troops if fielded. The report also exposes problems with a program designed to help soldiers deploy quickly across the world. The contractor responsible for maintaining the supplies is Amentum Services, which has held the contract since 2016 and will continue until January 2024, charging $947.6 million for its services so far.
