Tucker Carlson roasted for suggesting the FBI was behind the Capitol insurrection

Tucker Carlson claiming on Fox News that “FBI operatives were organising the attack on the Capitol” has been met with criticism online.

The conservative host of Tucker Carlson Tonight made the claim on his broadcast on Tuesday, which Media Matters For America has labelled a “bizarre conspiracy theory”.

“It means that in potentially every single case they were FBI operatives.” Carlson claimed on his show. “Really? In the Capitol on January 6th?”
