That's from October, btw, but circulating again. For some reason I missed it the first time and had to look up to see if it was real. It is (https://www.cnn.com/2025/11/17/politics/grocery-prices-fbi-january-6-trump).

Two days prior to Trump's social media post, a right-wing website had published a document that said 274 FBI agents had been deployed on January 6. But the document, whose authenticity CNN hasn't verified, made clear that these agents were responding to the riot and other incidents that day (like the pipe bombs found near Republican and Democratic offices), not instigating or perpetrating the riot. And the inspector general for the Justice Department found last year that the FBI had no undercover agents at all at the Capitol on January 6, though 26 of its paid informants were in Washington that day.

Kash Patel, the Trump-appointed director of the FBI, tried to correct the record about the activities of the 274 agents on January 6. He told Fox News on the day of Trump's post: "Agents were sent into a crowd control mission after the riot was declared by Metro Police - something that goes against FBI standards." Patel reiterated on the social media platform X, "274 FBI agents were thrown into crowd control on Jan 6 against FBI standards."

Even with the "against FBI standards" claim, Patel's statements represented a clear repudiation of the president's conspiracy theory.

Trump repeats the original false claim: Nearly two months later, Trump revived the conspiracy theory about the 274 agents on Monday morning. The president re-posted the September post in which he wrongly described the actions of the agents. And in a second Monday post, Trump promoted someone else's call for Wray to be indicted and imprisoned - and he wrote, baselessly, "Wray lied!!!"

Daniel Dale did an article on the lies this week. He has 28, I'll just excerpt a few of the worst whoppers

... Please read Digby's column for the rest. Well worth the time, again.
