Elon Musk, JD Vance, and the Fever Swamp Right Are Trying to Spin the DOJ's January 6 Report
Briefly

In a striking revelation, the report indicates that multiple FBI sources were present at the Capitol riot, prompting right-wing figures to celebrate and claim vindication of conspiracy theories long dismissed by mainstream media.
Vance expressed that the findings of the DOJ probe were an acknowledgment of what was branded as conspiracy theory, while Musk labeled the coverage as legacy media lies, highlighting a shift in narrative around January 6.
Tucker Carlson's sustained narrative about the January 6 events included speculation regarding FBI involvement, suggesting that agents may have encouraged participants to commit crimes, which he argued was consistent with past FBI behavior.
The embrace of the report's findings by influential figures like Vance and Musk demonstrates a significant crossover between mainstream platforms and far-right conspiracy theories about the FBI and January 6 event.
