A Justice Department watchdog found that there were no undercover FBI employees at the US Capitol during the January 6, 2021, riot, rejecting speculation from allies of President-elect Donald Trump who have for years suggested that the violence that day was provoked by federal agents. The DOJ inspector general said that while no undercover agents were at the rally, 26 confidential human sources – or paid FBI informants – were in Washington that day, none of whom were authorized to break the law themselves or encourage others to do so.
