Original Note:
There is no evidence to support claims that the January attacks were assisted or encouraged by Capitol Police. Police who were outnumbered attempted to deescalate the situation and lure rioters away from potential targets and sensitive locations. https://www.factcheck.org/2021/05/video-doesnt-prove-capitol-police-allowed-jan-6-protesters-to-enter-capitol/ https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/capitol-police-waving-video/
