Summary

Tucker Carlson's theory distorts work by Trevor Aaronson, a journalist for the Intercept and the author of 'The Terror Factory: Inside the FBI’s Manufactured War on Terrorism'. He joins us to explain why the idea that the January 6th storming of the capitol was an "inside job" by the FBI may not hold water. We explore real cases of FBI undercover stings targeting Muslims as part of the "war on terror", "Black Identity Extremists" (their words) and, increasingly, far-right extremists as well. ↓↓↓↓ SUBSCRIBE FOR $5 A MONTH SO YOU DON'T MISS THE SECOND WEEKLY EPISODE ↓↓↓↓ https://www.patreon.com/QAnonAnonymous Follow Trevor Aaronson: http://twitter.com/trevoraaronson Chameleon High Rollers podcast: https://apple.co/368Z5pn QAA Merch / Join the Discord Community / Find the Lost Episodes / Etc: https://qanonanonymous.com Episode music by Max Mulder (http://doomchakratapes.bandcamp.com) & Pontus Berghe

0:43.4	Unfortunately they were thin on evidence, mostly garnering support from the likes of
0:47.4	Newsmax and OAN.
0:49.3	But for a refined outlet like Fox News, the bullshit would have to be spun in subtler
0:54.2	and less cartoonish ways.
0:56.2	And so, inevitably Tucker Carlson used something very real, the FBI's long history of entraping
1:01.8	Muslims, civil rights activists, etc. to claim something more flimsy that the FBI had somehow
1:07.8	engineered the January 6th storming of the capital.
1:10.8	We'll be dissecting the issue with the help of Trevor Arensen, a journalist for the intercept
1:14.8	whose book The Terror Factory, inside the FBI's manufactured war on terrorism, was recently
1:20.1	brandished by Tucker Carlson to make his point.
1:22.3	Arensen however found Tucker's discernment on the matter lacking, accusing him of distorting
1:26.9	the reporting to promote what is essentially a conspiracy theory.
1:30.4	But before we get into all that, QAnon News.
