Watch: Dem Cuts Off Rep. Higgins as He Confronts FBI Director About Jan. 6 ‘Ghost Buses’
GOP Rep. Clay Higgins Confronts FBI Director About Jan. 6 ‘Ghost Buses’
During a House Homeland Security Committee hearing, GOP Rep. Clay Higgins of Louisiana raised questions about the FBI’s involvement in the Capitol incursion on Jan. 6, 2021. Higgins referred to two vehicles he called “ghost buses” that arrived in D.C. in the early hours of that day.
Higgins claimed that these buses were filled with FBI informants disguised as Trump supporters, who were deployed into the Capitol. However, before he could get a response from FBI Director Christopher Wray, he was abruptly shut down.
Higgins expressed frustration that a year had passed and the American people still did not have a definitive answer regarding the FBI’s presence and participation leading up to the 2020 election and on Jan. 6. He cited testimony from former FBI assistant director Steven D’Antuono, who confirmed that FBI informants attended the “Stop the Steal” rally on Jan. 6.
Despite Higgins’ persistence, Wray refused to confirm or deny the presence of confidential human sources at the rally. He emphasized that he would not disclose information about the FBI’s use of informants.
Higgins then shifted the focus to the “ghost buses” and presented evidence that these vehicles were painted completely white. However, his time was cut short by Democratic Rep. Glenn Ivey, who noted that Higgins had exceeded his allotted time.
Despite being denied the opportunity to conclude his statement, Higgins warned Wray that his day would come. The confrontation between Higgins and Wray highlights ongoing questions and concerns about the FBI’s actions surrounding the events of Jan. 6.

What evidence or information does Representative Clay Higgins have to support his claim that FBI informants disguised as Trump supporters were present at the Capitol on Jan. 6?
Ts were present at the Capitol on Jan. 6, but did not provide any further details or clarification on their involvement.
The incident on Jan. 6, 2021, when a mob of supporters of then-President Donald Trump stormed the U.S. Capitol, shook the nation and raised numerous questions about security, law enforcement, and the events leading up to that day. One of the lingering questions has been the extent of the FBI’s knowledge and involvement in the events that unfolded.
During the recent House Homeland Security Committee hearing, GOP Representative Clay Higgins of Louisiana took the opportunity to raise these concerns. Higgins drew attention to two vehicles he referred to as “ghost buses” that allegedly arrived in Washington D.C. in the early hours of Jan. 6. According to Higgins, these buses were filled with FBI informants disguised as Trump supporters, who were then deployed into the Capitol.
However, before Higgins could receive a response from FBI Director Christopher Wray, he was abruptly shut down. The level of frustration expressed by the Congressman was palpable, as he pointed out that almost a year had gone by and the American people were still left without a clear answer regarding the FBI’s presence and participation leading up to the 2020 election and on the infamous day of January 6.
Higgins referred to the testimony of former FBI assistant director Steven D’Antuono, who had confirmed the presence of FBI informants at the Capitol on Jan. 6. While this confirmation acknowledges the presence of informants, it falls short of providing any substantial transparency or addressing the concerns raised by Higgins and many others.
This lack of transparency and definitive answers has fueled speculation and distrust among the American people. Questions remain about the FBI’s knowledge of the intentions of the perpetrators, the extent of their surveillance and intelligence gathering, and whether any of their actions may have contributed to the events that transpired on that day.
It is crucial for the FBI to provide full disclosure and clarity regarding their involvement to restore faith in the agency and ensure accountability. The American people deserve to know the truth about what transpired on Jan. 6 and the role played by law enforcement agencies in preventing or responding to the attack.
While investigations and hearings continue to shed light on the events of Jan. 6, the testimony and evidence presented thus far have been insufficient in satisfying the public’s demand for clarity and accountability. It is incumbent upon the FBI, as the premier federal law enforcement agency, to address these concerns promptly and comprehensively.
In conclusion, Representative Clay Higgins’ inquiry into the FBI’s involvement in the Jan. 6 Capitol incursion has highlighted the need for transparency and accountability. The American people deserve answers and reassurance that their concerns are being addressed. It is essential that the FBI respond to these inquiries with clarity and full disclosure to restore public trust in the agency and uphold the principles of democracy and justice.
