An undercover FBI agent was in a car directly behind Elton Simpson and Nadir Soofi when they started shooting. A cellphone photo of school security guard Bruce Joiner and police officer Greg Stevens was taken by the undercover agent seconds before the attack. The FBI agent was taking a photograph of the two people who happen to be attacked moments before they’re attacked. No SWAT team, no FBI counterterror force was in place.
An FBI agent was in constant contact with the jihadis leading up to and during the attack. PDF here. We have twice filed an inquiry with the appropriate FBI internal affairs division. FBI Request for Internal Investigation. We have been summarily ignored.
So, apparently, has been the security guard who was shot by the Muslim terrorists. We expect this from an obviously broken FBI, but the Garland police?
“It turns out the undercover agent did more than just communicate online with (suspect) Elton Simpson. In an affidavit filed in another case, the government disclosed that the FBI undercover agent had actually ‘traveled to Garland, Texas, and was present … at the event.’”
“The undercover FBI agent,” “60 Minutes” said, “was in a car directly behind Elton Simpson and Nadir Soofi when they started shooting. This cell-phone photo of school security guard Bruce Joiner and police officer Greg Stevens was taken by the undercover agent seconds before the attack.” Here are copies of some of his cell phone footage.
Cooper speculated, “If this attack had gone a different way, and lots of people had been killed, would the fact that an undercover FBI agent was on the scene have become essentially a scandal?” The FBI agent at the scene of the crime reflected the Obama administration’s overall attitude.
“The Obama administration steadfastly pursued unreality and fantasy with regard to Islam,” she said.
Garland Police keeping tight grip on documents two years after ISIS attack
by Todd Shepherd | Washington Examiner,Police in Garland, Texas, are refusing to release documents that could show an FBI agent allowed a terrorist attack to go ahead in 2015, in order to avoid blowing his cover.
Police are still saying key documents can’t be shared because the investigation is still “pending,” even though the police chief said just days after the attack that they did not believe there were other suspects, and the two known assailants were killed on the scene. The 2015 attack was the first ISIS-backed act of terrorism on U.S. soil.The tight hold on documents by police is making it difficult for a security guard who was shot during the event to learn whether an undercover FBI agent was there at the scene and knew that a terrorism event was being planned. The security guard’s lawyer believes the FBI agent was trying to get close to the terrorists and may not have warned authorities of the event in order to keep his cover.
In May of 2015, political activist Pamela Geller was hosting a “Draw Muhammad” contest at the Curtis Culwell center in Garland, a northeast suburb of Dallas. Two radicalized Islamists, Elton Simpson and Nadir Soofi, drove from Phoenix to Garland in a car loaded with numerous firearms and hundreds of rounds of ammunition.
The two men were stopped at a parking checkpoint at the perimeter of the parking lot at the center and opened fire. The security guard, Bruce Joiner, was shot in the knee, and because the event was heavily guarded, Simpson and Soofi only made it a few yards past the checkpoint before they were fatally shot.
Joiner and his attorney now want to learn everything they can about a 60 Minutes report that said an undercover FBI was right behind Simpson and Soofi’s car and was taking pictures of the men just before they opened fire.
Court documents reveal that the undercover agent had been in contact with Simpson, and had even texted him weeks earlier, “Tear up Texas.”
As the attack began, the undercover FBI agent fled the scene, but was briefly detained by the Garland Police. Part of that episode was caught on camera by the Dallas news station WFAA.
ISIS later claimed credit for the attack, making it the first ever ISIS-sponsored attack on U.S. soil, and at a May 11, 2015 news conference, Garland Police Chief Mitch Bates said, “At this time, we have no evidence that there were any other suspects involved in this attack.”
(Credit: WFAA-TV)The Washington Examiner has requested all documentation from the Garland Police Department that mentioned or made reference to the FBI agent and is currently working through administrative legal issues in hopes of obtaining the documentation, but the “pending” label could be an insurmountable hurdle.
The “case status” box on the investigation report forms on Simpson and Soofi that Garland provided are marked “CLOSED/CLEARED.” The same case status is provided on the investigation report into Joiner, the security guard injured at the scene. In a filing with the Texas attorney general, the city attorney’s office also stated about the Examiner’s request:
“The Chief of Police of the Garland Police Department considers this case to be a pending investigation. The fact that the statue of limitations has not run in this matter is enough, in and of itself, to justify the Chief’s determination, as additional information regarding an incident often becomes known long after the original incident and forms the basis for additional law enforcement action.”
Representatives from the Garland Police Department and the Garland City Attorney’s office have not responded to multiple requests for comment.
Open-government advocates like Shannon Kelley with the Texas Freedom of Information Foundation are all too familiar with the issue of police departments using the “pending” label.
“Unfortunately, some law enforcement agencies use a loophole in the Texas Public Information Act to withhold police records even though a suspect is deceased. The law allows investigative records to be withheld if a case didn’t end in a conviction or deferred adjudication, but that exemption is intended for living suspects,” Kelley told the Examiner.
“When a suspect is dead, the public should have the ability to see the records and learn what happened,” Kelley concluded.
In the legislative session this past spring for the Texas General Assembly, a state representative introduced a bill that would have compelled law enforcement agencies to provide case documentation in instances where the suspect died. However, the bill failed later in the session.
Joiner is now the one leading the push to discover what the FBI knew about the impending attack in the days and months before. Joiner’s attorney, Trenton Roberts of Houston, previously told the Washington Examiner he thinks the evidence supports a theory that the FBI knew the attack was imminent, but did little to stop it.
“It seems like it had to have been one or the other,” Roberts told the Washington Examiner in April. “Just a complete botched operation where they [the FBI] don’t want the attack to actually take place, or, it’s something where they need the attack to take place in order for this guy [the agent] to advance in the world of ISIS.”
“And that’s really what I think. I think that they thought, ‘He’s undercover and in order to advance, he needed to get pictures or video of this attack,’ and then that would bolster his street cred within ISIS,” Roberts said.
Joiner is considering suing the FBI and, due to legal constraints, would have to file his lawsuit by the end of October if he chose to go forward with litigation.

FBI -> Federal Bureau of Islamization.
That seems to be the ugly truth. I wonder how many muslums work for the F-I_B now? I wonder if Molly Norris is still alive or if she’s already been sold out by some muslum F-I_B apparatchik?
Obama people need to be weeded out of the FBI and the CIA. Float a whistle blower REWARD!
a false flag terror attack created by deep state obama fbi in collusion with garland police……?
No. City of Garland went WAY out of their way to take care of us, no collusion there. I seen how shaken up one of the police officers was after seeing the jihad’s shot and thrown into a vehicle. I heard the car being blown up at 2:43 in the morning.
There are a lot of questions that will remained unanswered as long as the liberal democrat muslims enablers are allowed to remain in government. The sooner they are purged and replaced with patriots, the sooner things will improve.
Agreed Mahou.
Anyone hired by Clinton, Bush and Obama should go; and the ones who they hired should go too – the Kaiser Soze method. The problem seems to be unionization and all of these laws designed to protect their jobs. That is one reason that I think islam should be declassified as a religion and reclassified as an enemy political ideology. That way there may be a legal basis for firing all these people and their enablers.
They have got to go, one way or the other.
The Garland police were ordered by the Obama administration to a) either never release the documents b) destroy them c) or have everything pertaining to the case, be sent to Washington. In any event, probably nothing beyond who the attackers were will ever be revealed, unfortunately.
It also seems HIGHLY unlikely and suspicious that, an undercover agent, knowing of an imminent attack, would a) allow it to happen, knowing there could be deaths, placing civilians in extreme danger and b)not be there with a full FBI SWAT team to thwart the attack. Could it be he was MORE than an undercover agent. Being an instrument of the Obama administration, it would make perfect sense.
Good point.
I was there that day so obviously I’m interested in getting to the bottom of this. Is there no way to get a real thorough investigation going? This stinks and the FBI is hiding something.
I was there too, and have since seen the FBI’s actions in other aspects. They are not worthy of our trust. They assassinated LaVoy Finicum. They are a corporation based out of France and answer to the deep state and are agents of their agenda. Wish I was wrong, and that they served the American people, but the evidence is contrary to that position.
Agreed. The evidence of what you say is overwhelming.
I was there and have since seen the FBI as an enemy to the American public. Their internal moral compass isn’t working, and that puts people at risk. Keep yourself right with Jesus, cause you’ll never know when your going to meet him. When the speeches ended, some went outside and then I heard thumping sounds echoing against the glass. People began briskly coming back in, WITHOUT FEAR, and we were moved into another room. NO politician has the type of followers Pam has. They’ll all walk quite literally through hell with her. You’ll never see anything like it, it can only be seen 1st hand. I’ve never seen it before and it was a sight to see.
I think it is broader than that. I think that the entire US government and all of its agencies have been infiltrated and all are enemies to the American public – and by the “American public” I mean those of us who have roots in this country and belong no place else.
John Guandolo, of ” Understanding the Threat” and spoke at Pam’s protest of Linda Sarsour, documents this quite clearly. I agree, all departments have been thoroughly infiltrated. Unfortunately the only conclusion we’re left with is that all need to be removed, or at least made ineffective. This mess is worse than most realize.
Yes Bradley it is and so many people are suffering from the 6th Sense Pathology of “you see what you want to see and hear what you want to hear,” and they really do not want to see or hear anything that disturbs their karma. It is like Sara Connor of Terminator fame.
Hard to tell if the agent had sympathy with the culprits or was just humouring them to stay in contact.
But the outcome showed he misjudged the situation completely.
What did he think they were planning, a poster campaign?
Just shows how vital that 2nd amendment is.
MAGA
The FBI had prior substantial knowledge of every jihadi that committed every act of islamic terrorism inside the U.S., according to their own reports.
The truth about this debacle will never be known. It could be just as plausible the F-I_B wanted innocent citizens to die at the event — in order to carry out the 0mahdi’s threat that “there must be no future for those who slander the prophet of islam.”
