Republican 2024 presidential nominee outsider Vivek Ramaswamy railed against CNN host Abby Phillip on Wednesday night, detailing the reality of federal government agent involvement in Jan 6 and the Governor Whitmer kidnap hoax.
Phillip confronted Ramsmwamy on his claims, telling him a protestor who participated in the event – Alan Hostetter – used the GOP nominee hopeful’s comments during his sentence hearing last week.
“If you told me… back when I was a biotech CEO not steeped in this world… that January 6 was in any way an inside job, the subject of government entrapment. I would have told you that was crazy talk, fringe conspiracy theory nonsense. I can tell you know having gone somewhat deep in this: it’s not,” Ramaswamy replied.
“The reality is, we know that there were federal law enforcement agents in the field. We don’t know how many,” he continued before being quickly interrupted by the panicked CNN host. “We’ve seen multiple informants suggesting that there were, we know people who were FBI informants who were asked to do this,” Ramaswamy then countered.
“Why did they suppress footage of now what’s been released 200 hours of footage of shooting rubber bullets into that crowd, shooting tear gas into that crowd, you didn’t see that response before you saw what the response was to that, now you footage coming out of actually out the red carpet for Capitol police allowing people in,” he continued, with the audience beginning to applaud his remarks.
Whitmer Plot.
Ramaswamy then decided to enter uncharted territory for the mainstream media. He mentioned the potential Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) involvement in the Whitmer Plot, which supposedly saw an attempt to kidnap Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer.
“Three people who were in an alleged plot to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer were acquitted at the end of trial because it was entrapment – that is, government agents put them up to do something they otherwise wouldn’t have done,” he explained.
“They gave them credit cards with spending limits of up to $5,000, encouraged them to buy munitions, plan something they were otherwise unwilling to plan. So much so that… one of the jurors went to those defendants and apologized afterwards, gave them a hug… seeing what the government had put a poor guy up to.”
“These people were exploited… FBI agents putting them up to a kidnapping plot that we were told was true but was entrapment, same thing with the Capitol Police…” He added, “I think this is the civil libertarian issue of our time.”
WATCH:
Too bad for CNN, we’ll take the TRUTH on Jan. 6 mainstream. There is clear evidence that there was at the very least entrapment of peaceful protestors, similar to the fake Gretchen Whitmer kidnapping plot & countless other cases. The FBI won’t admit how many undercover officers… pic.twitter.com/SBuc6nnymg
