The Washington Post reports an interesting fact about foiling the leftist plot to stink-bomb the Deploraball inauguration fest and stopping other terror attacks on January 20.

It turns they needed that recording from James O'Keefe, of Project Veritas, that depicted the plotters hatching their nefarious plans.

Meetings of activists planning to disrupt inauguration were infiltrated by conservative group

In the weeks leading up to President Trump’s inauguration, a small group of activists threatening to disrupt the event tried to keep the details secret. D.C. police detectives worked hard to learn the plans and head the protesters off.

What neither authorities nor the protesters apparently realized was that conservative activist James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas had already infiltrated key meetings of groups of suspected agitators.

A D.C. police spokesman has confirmed that a secret video recording made Dec. 18 by one of O’Keefe’s operatives led to the arrest of one man and foiled an alleged plot to spread acid at the DeploraBall for Trump supporters at the National Press Club. It was not clear whether the alleged plotters ever obtained the acid.

Law enforcement authorities said they think that the successful penetration of DisruptJ20, an umbrella organization for a number of groups that police said sought to wreak havoc at the inauguration, forced it to abandon plans to try to shut down Metro trains and block entrances into the District, according to two law enforcement officials with knowledge of the investigation.[More]

In other words, the cops were so incompetent they couldn't stop a terror attack on conservatives without the help of a conservative group, which had to infiltrate the terrorist group.

So we are left to defend ourselves?

If so, Peter Brimelow is right. There will be blood.
