Our ruling
A Facebook post claimed Sullivan "incited (the) insurgence of (the) US Capitol."
Sullivan joined the mob of Trump supporters that entered the Capitol, filming the events as they transpired and posting his videos online. But he was one person among thousands. There’s no evidence that he "incited" the violence himself or led the charge into the Capitol.
Sullivan denied any affiliation with antifa, although he has posted related hashtags on Twitter.
We rate this statement Mostly False.
