Senator Amy Klobuchar has condemned President Trump's claim that the FBI deployed agents as "agitators" during the January 6th Capitol riot. Trump alleged the FBI "secretly placed" agents into the crowd, a statement contradicted by a previous Inspector General report finding no evidence of undercover employees acting as agitators. FBI Director Kash Patel clarified that agents were involved in crowd control, not as agitators. Klobuchar, referencing her investigation, stated no evidence supported Trump's claim, emphasizing that agents were called in to assist overwhelmed law enforcement during the insurrection.
