Claim: Some 274 undercover FBI agents were embedded in the crowd in Washington, D.C., on Jan. 6, 2021, inciting violence that resulted in the riot at the U.S. Capitol. The reports appeared to suggest that the long-standing rumor that undercover FBI agents had incited the violence was true. "Depending how one reads 'undercover' agents versus 'plainclothes agents,' both statements could be true," it read. It is important to note that most FBI agents do not wear uniforms in the field, unlike local law enforcement. The Blaze's and Just the News' reports did not cite "undercover" agents, but plainclothes agents, which is consistent with FBI standards for dress.
