John B. Whithead and The Rutherford Institute are valiant warriors in the fight to retain bits of our liberty. I subscribe to his e-mail newsletters. His essays are always well-researched and fully documented.
However, the one that arrived this morning builds from a foundation assuming that what the media has shown us about the orchestrated, guided tour given to ANTIFA on January 6th is the truth, when nothing they have and are saying is remotely close.
It is not the players who went into the Capital and staged the fake shooting that are being rounded up. Nope. The people who were there actually protesting for life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness; the ones willing to stand up to a police state; the ones really willing to fight against fascism are the ones the FBI criminals are tracking down and rounding up.
I will give you a bit of what John Whithead wrote, then show you a couple of videos that we may remember what did and DID NOT happen on that day.
Digital Trails: How the FBI Is Identifying, Tracking and Rounding Up Dissidents
By John W. Whitehead & Nisha Whitehead
March 16, 2021
“Americans deserve the freedom to choose a life without surveillance and the government regulation that would make that possible. While we continue to believe the sentiment, we fear it may soon be obsolete or irrelevant. We deserve that freedom, but the window to achieve it narrows a little more each day. If we don’t act now, with great urgency, it may very well close for good.”—Charlie Warzel and Stuart A. Thompson, New York Times
Databit by databit, we are building our own electronic concentration camps.
With every new smart piece of smart technology we acquire, every new app we download, every new photo or post we share online, we are making it that much easier for the government and its corporate partners to identify, track and eventually round us up.
Saint or sinner, it doesn’t matter because we’re all being swept up into a massive digital data dragnet that does not distinguish between those who are innocent of wrongdoing, suspects, or criminals.
This is what it means to live in a suspect society.
The government’s efforts to round up those who took part in the Capitol riots shows exactly how vulnerable we all are to the menace of a surveillance state that aspires to a God-like awareness of our lives.
Relying on selfies, social media posts, location data, geotagged photos, facial recognition, surveillance cameras and crowdsourcing, government agents are compiling a massive data trove on anyone and everyone who may have been anywhere in the vicinity of the Capitol on January 6, 2021.
The amount of digital information is staggering: 15,000 hours of surveillance and body-worn camera footage; 1,600 electronic devices; 270,000 digital media tips; at least 140,000 photos and videos; and about 100,000 location pings for thousands of smartphones.
And that’s just what we know.
More than 300 individuals from 40 states have already been charged and another 280 arrested in connection with the events of January 6. As many as 500 others are still being hunted by government agents…

Do not forget this story was staged
By the way, Brighteon video hosting has placed “disturbing” warnings on these videos. IT WAS THEATER! The blood was fake. The gunshots were blanks. The people dressed as cops were actors and directors in the theater.
I will grant that the truth might be “disturbing” to some people, but no animals or humans were harmed in the production. The warning is a mistake. I have opened a Brighteon support ticket because of it (two actually). They either fix it or I am moving to another video hosting service. I delay doing that because I have uploaded 160 videos to my Bitterroot Bugler account and have accumulated 25,000 views of them. I almost always delete the source file from my computer after I publish online. Thus I will truly be starting over in a new home.
