In a never-before-released video, FBI agents posing as documentary filmmakers can be seen running an undercover operation to investigate a Nevada ranching family whose fight with the federal government sparked an armed uprising and rallied militias from around the country.
The undercover operation by "Longbow Productions" began shortly after the Bundy family and hundreds of supporters, many of them armed, forced government agents to surrender cattle they'd impounded from the family in 2014.
In audio and video recordings of the operation, an FBI agent going by the pseudonym "Charles Johnson" tries to find out the Bundy "family rank structure" and who planned the uprising in the desert town of Bunkerville.
