Claim: New J6 Videos Show Undercover Cops Urging Protesters To Trespass

From JusttheNews.

Congressional investigators have obtained hours of video footage from undercover officers who were dispatched by the Washington D.C. Metropolitan Police Department to the U.S. Capitol to conduct electronic surveillance during the Jan. 6 riot, a critical new piece of evidence that could help lawmakers fashion long-delayed security reforms.

The footage reviewed by Just the News ranges from the mundane -- such as chronicling moments when Capitol Police officers are impacted by tear gas fired into the crowd -- to more provocative scenes that appear to show plainclothes MPD officers exhorting rioters to climb scaffolding near the Capitol or talking about being undercover with liberal fascist protesters in a crowd.

"Well, we go undercover as Antifa in the crowd," one officer that congressional investigators believe is a member of the MPD electronic surveillance unit is captured on video saying.

That officer made the comment as he was helping uniformed Capitol Police officers get some water after inhaling tear gas, the footage shows.

Just the News obtained footage from official sources and confirmed it has not been altered. The footage showed the officer in plainclothes with a grey jacket. Spotted in the video and identifying him as a police officer is a badge hanging around his neck.

Another claim is made by the Jack Posobiec and Raheem Kassam, that police fired rubber bullets at protesters who were "just milling around" and not doing anything violent or threatening.

I don't trust either of these guys, so we'll have to wait on the evidence.

I don't see enough to say for sure if cops opened fire on perfectly peaceful protesters "just milling around or not." Definitely you see the cops shooting off tear gas grenades and firing rubber bullets.
