Trump Repeats Claim ‘Biden FBI’ Planted 274 Agents at Jan. 6, Calls It a ‘Scam’

The assertion remains unverified, conflicting with the fact that Trump led the federal government on Jan. 6.

Overview

  • Trump posted at 12:38 a.m. Sunday on Truth Social alleging the FBI placed 274 agents in the Jan. 6 crowd and urged supporters to “DO SOMETHING!!!”.
  • He attributed the claim to the “Biden FBI” even though Biden took office two weeks after the Capitol riot and Trump was president at the time.
  • The FBI has denied orchestrating or inciting the violence on Jan. 6, and no independent confirmation of a 274‑agent deployment has been presented publicly.
  • Trump made a similar allegation last month, reviving a recurring narrative that casts the Capitol attack as a hoax.
  • A disputed after‑action document alleging plainclothes FBI deployments has circulated to House committees, though it has not been publicly corroborated.
