Without further context, it is difficult to understand precisely what the officer was referring to. However, it does further reinforce the reality that the circumstances surrounding the riot at the Capitol Building are not exactly straightforward. Until there is clarification, the officer’s comments only pile on another layer of complexity in a whirlwind of narratives, opinions, and outright lies about the incident.
"House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) sparked a spirited debate last week when he announced that House Republicans would be releasing all of the J6 footage. Since then, members of the chattering class have been going back and forth about the riot now that new evidence further demonstrates that the incident was not worse than the 9/11 terrorist attacks, as was claimed by several on the left.
"Now, a new revelation has emerged that could either add more complexity to the ongoing narratives about J6, or it could mean absolutely nothing at all. Just the News reported on bodycam footage from a D.C. Metro Police Officer in which he claimed that he and other officers routinely “go undercover with Antifa.”
Just the News on Tuesday obtained footage of an undercover Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officer recorded by his body-worn camera behind police lines on the U.S. Capitol grounds. The footage was obtained directly from official sources and has not been altered.
He is seen giving water to his fellow police officers who were suffering from the effects of tear gas which the Capitol Police had deployed against the pro-Trump protestors. 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.
While helping his fellow officer, the undercover officer told his colleague that “we go undercover as Antifa in a crowd.”
