As we reported earlier, a viral image of around six or so clean-cut, White males in sunglasses at the sketchy “Justice for J6” rally in Washington D.C. has prompted lots of suspicion and speculation on Twitter.
Journalist Ford Fischer captured another moment that is sure to fuel more speculation on whether or not the whole event was a setup.
Fischer reported, “Police surround masked man reportedly armed with a firearm. He tells them where the gun is, and they pull out his badge. He’s undercover law enforcement. Without disarming or handcuffing him, police extract him from the event.”
“Are you undercover?” the officers asked the masked man, who gave them a badge. I guess not anymore,” Fischer added in a follow-up tweet.
Fischer added, “The masked man claimed ‘I’m just here’ when asked if he’s undercover as he presented a badge to justify the gun he was apparently wearing, before being pulled out. Other than undercover, he could have hypothetically been simply masked & off duty with his badge and gun concealed.”

Journalist Andy Ngo tweeted a clip of Fischer after the incident and said in the tweet, “Journalist @FordFischer said he only witnessed one detainment at the US Capitol rally in support of the Jan. 6 suspects. The person was undercover from a law enforcement or intelligence agency.”

GOP and America First House candidates Mike Collins and Joe Kent spoke at the rally, lending some legitimacy to it not just being a setup, however and they both said that the crowd was peaceful.
Kent said in an interview with the Daily Caller’s Jorge Ventura, “American citizens, our brothers and sisters that have been denied their constitutional rights.”

According to Mica Soellner with The Washington Times, Collins explained in his speech, “The American people are not stupid. We can see with our own eyes, the difference in the treatment from our federal government because of someone’s political beliefs.”
