One of the men involved in the plot was an informant for the FBI, and alleges that he was directed by the FBI to take a leadership role within the group and helped train them. For the record - as described in the video - there were at least twelve informants who infiltrated a group of six.
That means 2/3rds of the group involved were FBI informants.
Also, one of their informants has been indicted on felony firearm charges. On top of that, the lead FBI agent has also been convicted of felony domestic abuse, and is no longer allowed to carry a firearm because of it, meaning he can't be an FBI agent anymore.
This entire case is falling apart more and more with every new update we hear about it.
