Pastor Walks Back Claims of Antifa Involvement in Capitol Riot

January 11, 2021 by Staff

(ChurchLeaders) Saying he needs to “right the wrong,” Tennessee Pastor Steve Berger admits he referenced “incorrect reporting” about the U.S. Capitol breach on January 6. In a statement Saturday, the leader of Grace Chapel in Franklin first acknowledges misstating the age of a victim of last Wednesday’s violence.

He then notes, “There was additional incorrect reporting that a facial-recognition system had identified Antifa activists in the Capitol. That report has since been shown to be false.” Berger continues, “Also, there was reporting about Antifa being bussed into the [Capitol], a report that has now been retracted.”

On Friday, the FBI said there is “no indication…at this time” that anti-fascist activists, known as Antifa, were disguised as Trump supporters during the unrest. News organizations also have debunked various claims of Antifa’s involvement.
