Original Note:
This was a comedic bit that has been debunked. The prankster Jon Berry says, “I just left the protest at the Capitol building and I got a big bruise on my leg. I had a difficult time pulling off the act that I was paid to do..” Berry later confirmed this was meant as a joke. https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-factcheck-antifa-paid-protest/fact-check-video-shows-prankster-not-antifa-rep-saying-he-was-paid-to-protest-at-the-capitol-idUSKBN29D219/
