Given recent CTH events – is this just random serendipity?

(Via iOTW) Brandon was a left-wing activist who made a name for himself during Katrina relief efforts.
In 2008, during the Republican National Convention, arrests of some violent left-wing radicals were made. It was this event that forced Brandon out of the shadows and it was revealed that he was an FBI informant.
Now Darby is on “our side,” writing for Breitbart.com.
Brandon Darby often works with another recent convert, Lee Stranahan.

From The Official Trailer Release –  Informant is a fascinating portrait of Brandon Darby, a radical left-wing activist turned FBI informant. In 2005, Darby became an overnight hero when he traveled to Katrina-devastated New Orleans and braved toxic floodwaters to rescue a stranded friend. Soon after, he co-founded Common Ground, a successful grassroots relief organization. But over the next few years, he began hiding a shocking secret. After two young protestors were arrested at the 2008 Republican National Convention, Darby revealed he had been instrumental in their indictment as an FBI informant. Today, having renounced his left-wing past, he is a tea-party darling who writes regularly for the right-leaning web site Breitbart.com.
The only film with access to Darby since his public confession, Informant meticulously constructs a picture of Brandon’s life — before and after the many death threats he has received – through interviews and tense reenactments starring Brandon himself. Darby’s version of events is accompanied – and often contradicted – by evidence from acquaintances and expert commentators, posing complicated questions about trust and the nature of reality. As David Hanners of St. Paul Pioneer Press suggests, “When you interview people about Brandon Darby, you realize that everyone has a different idea of who he is.”
In addition to trying to unlock the mystery of Darby, Informant offers an powerful insider look at the hidden use of informants in contemporary America — an especially timely issue in light of the recent leaks about government surveillance.  https://www.musicboxfilms.com/informant
