While detailing the measures taken Tuesday night to restore order at Columbia University, New York City Police Chief of Patrol John Chell and Deputy Commissioner of Operations Kaz Daughtry told Newsmax Wednesday that “professional agitators” infiltrated the campus.

“There have been agitators on campus from day one,” Chell said on “American Agenda.” “We’re not gonna go into names. Our intelligence bureau knows who they are. And when we’ve filtered through all these arrests, we’re gonna differentiate between students and nonstudents.”

Daughtry added, “I don’t know what type of intelligence they [Columbia] were getting.

We found intel inside of their tents on how to be a professional, how to be a professional protester.”
