The man whose posting on social media warned authorities that agent provocateurs from Antifa and Black Lives Matter would be at the U.S. Capitol dressed as Trump supporters on Jan. 6, 2021, is a self-described government informant tied to former deputy attorney general Rod Rosenstein.
Rosenstein warned about a “soft coup” against then-President Donald Trump in fall 2020.
On Jan. 4, 2021, an account under the name @JohnHereToHelp posted on Twitter that Antifa and BLM agitators were being bussed from Baltimore to Washington to cause trouble at the Capitol on the day of Trump’s speech at the Ellipse.
“Pantifa/BLM, Balt./DC branches, are already bussing people in to disturb Jan. 6,” the post read. “Orders [were] given to dress like ‘MAGA,’ blend in [and] cause trouble, especially around cameras. At night, arson has been ordered. All to be blamed on Trump supporters attending. Please be careful.”
The post caught the attention of an assistant commander in the Intelligence and Counterterrorism Branch of the United States Park Police, who forwarded it to officials at the U.S. Capitol Police, the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department, the Department of Homeland Security, and other agencies.
The now-suspended Twitter account belonged to Ryan Dark White, also known as Jon McGreevey.
McGreevey has described himself in court papers and interviews as a former Department of Justice informant who supplied information on corruption in the federal government, law enforcement, and the Trump administration.
He once used the name Ryan White as a cover but now identifies as McGreevey. He is running for federal office in Maryland.
JohnHereToHelp’s original post was shared more than 6,000 times before it hit the radar of the Park Police.
At the time, McGreevey had more than 120,000 followers on Twitter, according to an archived version of his page stored at the Wayback Machine.
Twitter later suspended his account.
“There are multiple replies to this comment that says BLM/Antifa will wear MAGA hats backwards, wear camo, and attempt to blend in with MAGA crowd,” the Park Police official wrote to his colleagues on January 5, 2021.
The Wayback Machine archive of White’s post shows nearly 600 replies, but the replies are not visible from links on the website.
Infiltrator Warning
The emails, part of a trove of documents obtained in 2021 through a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit by Judicial Watch, show that federal law enforcement knew that infiltrators could be among the crowds at the Capitol.
They also back up anecdotal reports of BLM and Antifa activists from Oregon, Maryland, and other states causing disruption and committing vandalism on Jan. 6.
Trump supporters tangled with alleged Antifa provocateurs in several spots on Jan. 6, including the Lower West Terrace of the Capitol.
Victoria White of Rochester, Minnesota, scuffled with a man attempting to break an arched window adjacent to the Capitol’s tunnel entrance.
As the tightly-packed crowd chanted “[expletive] Antifa,” White wrestled for control of the red wooden club wielded by the man, who wore a green helmet with Trump stickers.
“I’m like, ‘We don’t do that. We don’t do that. Trump supporters, we don’t do that,’” White told The Epoch Times in an interview for an upcoming documentary, “The Real Story of January 6,” on Epoch TV.
“And then there’s other people [who said] ‘No, we’re all on the same team.’ I’m like, ‘No. No, we’re not.’
“Who brings something like that to a Trump rally, let alone to break out the Capitol windows?” White said. “That’s not us. That’s not what patriot Americans do. We don’t do that stuff.”
After another man got control of the club and began smashing the window, White helped pull him down before she was pulled away by other bystanders.
Members of the crowd vented anger at the vandals. “We are not Antifa!” one protester shouted. A man with a green stocking cap pulled over his MAGA hat pulled what appeared to be a stereo speaker from a backpack, spurring more howls of protest from the crowd.
At the same window, the crowd shouted at a man dressed all in black. “No, no, Antifa!” a woman yelled from the crowd. “Antifa’s breaking the windows! Antifa’s breaking the windows!”
While conducting a live stream on January 6, independent journalist Tayler Hansen recognized a protester in a gas mask from her appearance at riots in Portland, Oregon.
“I recognize you from Portland,” Hansen told the woman as she quickly turned away from the camera.
“So you’ve got Antifa here, too. You have Antifa and Trump supporters within the same vicinity here for the same thing. This is absolutely [expletive] crazy.”

The BLM and Antifa scumbags wouldn’t have had the opportunity to infiltrate and cause trouble that could be pinned on Trump and MAGA if Trump wasn’t stupid enough to draw so many of his supporters to DC that day, and they weren’t stupid enough to go.
And it was a whole other level of stupidity that would say “march to the Capitol and make our voices heard” (or whatever Trump told them), and then actually do so and walk into the building “taking selfies,” walking out with podiums, and sitting with your feet on Pelosi’s desk. Trump and his supporters basically put a ball on a tee for his enemies to smash out of the park..
They might be good people, but they aren’t rocket scientists. They’re gullible and naive. You didn’t have to be a federal informant to realize this was going to be trouble.
If Trump wanted to have a big rally that day, he should’ve done it far, far away from DC – like FL or TX.
Makes you wonder…
FFS, Trump was in on the whole mess. He set those people up and skipped down to Florida while his base paid the price. Whatever happened to that 200 million Trump and pillow man raised to “fight the steal”? Bet those two had a good laugh over that as well.
Maybe Trump was ‘in’ on it, but I think a more plausible explanation is he’s gullible, lacks situational awareness, and is too self-centered to give a damn.
And it’s possible that Pillow Man is smoking crack and doing blow again, based on his behavior and the way he comports himself. Once an addict, always an addict – even if Jesus gets “involved.”
May I just inject a bit of irrefutable truth here?
Thanks.
IT WAS ALL A GOVRNMENT OP to try yet again to stop DJT from ever coming back.
He is garlic to The Swamp Vampires. As long as DJT is viable, they are vulnerable. Hate the man
all you like, but he alone exposed the DC evil we all see now. America sees it too.
Fucking MAGA already.
I have pretty much tuned out on this whole thing but didn’t this all start while he was still giving his speech? I thought someone posted the timeline and it was/would have been impossible to walk that far to be involved in the initial action.
Certainly agree that it was dumb to be anywhere near DC. The few people I know who might have gone under different circumstances had their spidey senses tingling.
I think it did start while he was giving his speech, but he did say at the end of his speech, “I’m going to walk over to the Capitol with you and we’ll make our voices heard,” or something like that. Really, really dumb.
I did consider going, but a whole bunch didn’t feel right about it.
Ray Epps…..all over the Capitol shouting “we gotta get in there”.
Zero interest by the FBI about him while others rot for well over a year now in some DC dungeon. Hmmmm?
I heard Stewart Rhodes is gonna be testifying soon. Seems to be in the same camp as Epps.
Yes, but Rhodes put some (reasonable) conditions on his agreeing to testify. Those might go against a bunch of communists who want total control over the story. In particular requiring live vs recordings will make it harder for the socialists to selectively edit his testimony. We’ll see. This is the most criminal and destructive administration I can remember, and I’m 75.
It will be live until the cameras malfunction occasionally at key moments.
I warned about it, and I am not a former informant!
The shit was Roadrunner and Coyote obvious.
And the next one will be just as obvious.
Federal informant = shit eating dog
Just remember the same money people supporting ANTIFA & BLM also support all leftist democrats and their anti-American hate America and Americans first agendas
Soros and WEF
Not even a first class bitch… second rate whore at best.
Has she been deployed to Ukraine yet?
I’m sure that’s the top concern there right now.
I have no way of knowing what the 3.8k of Twit replies were, but my reaction is she has already violated her oath and needs a general courts martial and out! No vet benefits; no veteran status.
She needs a jump boot in her stupid silly ass and a one way ticket back to the kitchen.
Dishonorable discharge is too good for her.
It should be more than obvious to anyone with critical thinking ability that this was a set up by the left wing power establishment. Both sides of the aisle were involved because lets face it they hated Trump and wanted to discredit him…forever and for good. It was also done to divert attention from the real insurrectionists who stole the election for Joe Biden.
