I've been thinking over the odd promotion of FBI agent Thomas Jensen, who worked heavily on the J6 investigations. Why would Cash Patel promote a guy that a lot of the right consider a traitor? This question has been floating around in the back of my mind, and I've come up with some theories.
1. Jensen snitched. This one is almost certainly 100% true, because if Jensen didn't snitch on anybody, he would be on the chopping block himself. Patel and Hegseth wouldn't trust him without a good-faith offering.
2. Jensen was immediately cooperative and agreeable. He presented himself as non-partisan and agreed to work on behalf of the Trump administration, just as hard as he'd worked for the Biden administration. If it weren't for item #1, item #2 wouldn't matter, because nobody would believe him.
3. Jensen is using geofencing against current protesters and terrorists. Geofencing techniques were perfected during the J6 investigations, and few people know more about them than Jensen. He's now using these techniques against Tesla terrorists, Palestinian protesters, and I'm sure he collected some very interesting data this weekend about professional protesters and where they really come from and where they've been.
These 3 things all together merit a promotion imho. Take any two and leave one out, and that just merits not having his head on the block. With only one, he'd have gotten a pink slip instead of a reward. Have none, and it's double-secret-investigation time.
