Contrary to what the Facebook post claims, there is no evidence that the rioters in the video were"already" positioned inside the Capitol before the attack began.captured from the same part of the Capitol shows several rioters climbing inside the room through the broken window before and after one rioter yells the expression heard on the Facebook video:"We just need a plan. We need enough people. We need to push forward.
The video also does not show a"setup" by members of antifa. Antifa is a loosely organized coalition of anti-fascist left-wing activists commonly scapegoated for domestic unrest. The Chicago Project on Security and Threats, a group at the University of Chicago, has examined the cases of more than 900 people who had been charged with crimes relating to the attack. The team has found"no evidence" of antifa involvement, research director Keven Ruby told PolitiFact. That has not wavered since FBI assistant director Steven D’AntuonoPolitiFact could not identify all the rioters in the Facebook post’s video.
