Meet Donell Harvin: Trump-Hating Deep State Official Who ‘Predicted’ J6 Pipe Bombs in Advance

Peloni:  Revolver News continues to provide greater clarity of the facts and details which surrounded the psyop exploited on January 6.

The Ides of March, H.G. Well’s prediction of atomic weaponry, and Babe Ruth’s iconic finger pointed toward the stands all enjoy pride of place in the annals of historic prognostications. When all is said and done, these annals may need to open once again to accommodate a largely unsung Nostradamus by the name of Donell Harvin, former chief of the Homeland Security and Intelligence division of Washington, D.C.’s Fusion Intelligence Center. This deep-state official and vehement never-Trumper is responsible for predicting the infamous January 6th pipe bombs to an uncanny and rather troubling degree of accuracy. Why isn’t he interested in taking credit?

Those who have been following our ground-breaking coverage on the scandalous J6 pipe bombs may recall that two pipe bombs were discovered on January 6th, one near the RNC building and one outside of the DNC building. The pipe bomb discovered near the RNC building was reported at around 12:50 p.m., and the bomb near the DNC building was discovered at 1:05 p.m. The fact that these two bombs were discovered independently within a 15-minute time frame that perfectly coincided with the unfolding attack on the Capitol (the Ray Epps breach) at 12:53 p.m. is a most remarkable coincidence indeed, especially given that they were both planted the evening before on January 5th and had been sitting in their respective locations for over 16 hours before magically, independently, being discovered in this critical 15-minute window.

The timing and infinitesimally implausible synchronicity of it all led many, including former Capitol Police chief Steve Sund, to embrace a “diversion theory” of the pipe bombs—namely, the bombs were never intended to go off but rather to be discovered at the critical time window so as to distract police resources and personnel from the unfolding attack on the Capitol. This theory gains extra plausibility when we consider that the bombs were equipped with a one-hour mechanical kitchen timer. If they had been intended to go off, the latest they could have gone off would have been 9 p.m. or so in a back alley, and it is hard to see what that would have achieved. It all makes perfect sense until we reflect on the following: how could the bomber have counted on the bombs remaining undiscovered for nearly 17 hours only to be independently discovered by a random pedestrian and undercover Capitol Police officer within the critically necessary 15-minute period overlapping with the unfolding attack on the Capitol? This is the damning question we have pursued with the determination of a pit bull chasing after an infant, to the point of unraveling one of the darkest scandals in recent American history.

We refer those who wish to brush up on such details to our comprehensive piece on the January 6 pipe bombs published earlier this year:

Secret Service Foreknowledge or Criminal Negligence? Damning New Evidence Surfaces In FBI’s January 6 “Pipe Bomb” Story

Now back to Deep State Donell Harvin, the unlikely Nostradamus of the January 6 pipe bombs. We mentioned that Harvin is responsible for predicting the January 6 pipe bombs to an uncomfortable and rather bizarre degree of accuracy, but don’t take our word for it—the original source for this claim is a detailed puff piece on Harvin from none other than the Washington Post. The Post piece itself, titled “Red Flags,” is extremely illuminating, and it is rather surprising that it hasn’t gotten much press coverage beyond Revolver News and Julie Kelly (actually, it’s not surprising at all when we consider the consequences for raising uncomfortable facts in relation to January 6).

The purpose of the “Red Flags” piece is to chronicle exhaustively the mountains of evidence that DHS, FBI, Capitol Police, DOJ, the Pentagon, and other agencies obtained suggesting the need for heightened security on January 6th—a day that, despite this heightened need, suffered from uniquely and suspiciously poor security. While the public may have been surprised by what transpired on the 6th, the piece asserts that the so-called “insurrection” was “spotted at every level, from one side of the country to another. The red flags were everywhere.”

It’s rather telling that this ostensible exposé of foreknowledge and forewarning in relation to January 6 features Donell Harvin as its main protagonist. The piece even begins with Harvin (emphasis ours):

The head of intelligence at D.C.’s homeland security office was growing desperate. For days, Donell Harvin and his team had spotted increasing signs that supporters of President Donald Trump were planning violence when Congress met to formalize the electoral college vote, but federal law enforcement agencies did not seem to share his sense of urgency. On Saturday, Jan. 2, he picked up the phone and called his counterpart in San Francisco, waking Mike Sena before dawn.

Sena listened with alarm. The Northern California intelligence office he commanded had also been inundated with political threats flagged by social media companies, several involving plans to disrupt the joint session or hurt lawmakers on Jan. 6.

He organized an unusual call for all of the nation’s regional homeland security offices — known as fusion centers — to find out what others were seeing. Sena expected a couple dozen people to get on the line that Monday. But then the number of callers hit 100. Then 200. Then nearly 300. Officials from nearly all 80 regions, from New York to Guam, logged on.

In the 20 years since the country had created fusion centers in response to the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, Sena couldn’t remember a moment like this. For the first time, from coast to coast, the centers were blinking red. The hour, date and location of concern was the same: 1 p.m., the U.S. Capitol, Jan. 6.

Right off the bat, we’re alerted to the fact that not only were multiple intelligence and law enforcement agencies receiving red flags about the January 6th date generally, but the U.S. Capitol location at 1 p.m. specifically. Informed readers of our ground-breaking January 6 coverage will recall not only that 1 p.m. was when the certification of the vote proceeding was to begin in Congress, but also a critical intersection period between the discovery of the RNC and DNC pipe bombs at 12:40 p.m. and 1:05 p.m., respectively, and the initial and decisive Ray Epps orchestrated breach of the west perimeter of the Capitol at 12:53 p.m.

We encourage readers to keep this timeline in mind as we proceed.

The Post piece continues with a remarkable revelation:

Harvin asked his counterparts to share what they were seeing. Within minutes, an avalanche of new tips began streaming in. Self-styled militias and other extremist groups in the Northeast were circulating radio frequencies to use near the Capitol. In the Midwest, men with violent criminal histories were discussing plans to travel to Washington with weapons.

Forty-eight hours before the attack, Harvin began pressing every alarm button he could. He invited the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Department of Homeland Security, military intelligence services and other agencies to see the information in real time as his team collected it. He took another extreme step: He asked the city’s health department to convene a call of D.C.-area hospitals and urged them to prepare for a mass casualty event. Empty your emergency rooms, he said, and stock up your blood banks.

After learning the hour of concern (1 p.m.) and the location of concern (US Capitol), we now learn that the intensity of Donelll Harvin’s concern was such that he purportedly asked DC hospitals to prepare for a “mass casualty event” and to “stock up your blood banks.” Remarkable indeed. Already, the Washington Post piece represents a very different version of events than that of FBI Director Christopher Wray, who, for instance, told Amy Klobuchar that officials were simply caught off guard on January 6th. The Washington Post’s red flag piece highlights figures like Donell Harvin as a means of criticizing the ostensible incompetence and ignorance of federal agencies that should have taken more active steps to prevent January 6 from unfolding as it did. Of course, it would never occur to the penetrating minds of the Post that Christopher Wray and other key figures opted not to take preventative steps on January 6 precisely because they wanted it to take place—that they needed something they could contort into an “insurrection” in order to justify the political weaponization of the national security apparatus against Trump supporters.

Harvin’s urging hospitals to “stock up blood banks” for a mass casualty event may be a bit hysterical and hyperbolic, but all of the warning signs the Washington Post covered, including chatter from militia groups, chat rooms, and information from informants (yes, there were several), all seem to reasonably support the idea that there would be concern in relation to January 6th. The Post piece (likely inadvertently) takes a different turn, however, when it relays a concern regarding January 6th that is so uncannily specific that it forces us to ask some very uncomfortable questions regarding the source and nature of this foreknowledge.

Here’s where the Post piece starts to get bizarre. In the section of the piece meant to chronicle agency preparation 16 days and fewer before January 6th, the post reveals that Harvin was analyzing a number of protests throughout the country, and for whatever reason, he assigned the task of analyzing January 6th to his most junior analyst.
