“Last week, during an interview with NBC’s Lester Holt, FBI Director Chris Wray said that the FBI doesn’t ‘monitor protests’. Subsequently, an incredulous public response ensued via every social media platform imaginable. Having supervised the FBI’s Washington Field Office (WFO) surveillance squads, I can say with complete confidence that the FBI does monitor protests. But, that statement doesn’t necessarily contradict Director Wray’s comments to Holt. During the summer of ‘mostly peaceful’ protests in 2020, the FBI was involved in monitoring protestors — more accurately described as rioters. The BLM movement, supplemented by ANTIFA anarchists, capitalized on the [police murder] of George Floyd.” (04/30/24)
