The Department of Justice’s (DOJ) Inspector General’s (IG) report on the FBI’s complicity in the January 6 riot reveals that the one-time law enforcement agency-turned-intelligence operation had 26 assets on the ground on the Capitol Complex when a riot broke out. Though this IG report didn’t go into it, videos also show that Metropolitan Police, Capitol Police, and likely DHS agents were also in the crowd.
