I saw it back when it was on tv (and I thought it was pretty good), so I'm going off memory; I know Reno was mentioned and there was an actor playing her part on the show, and she was on screen. I don't remember exactly how many times they mentioned it. Clinton I can't remember. I definitely don't think, based on what I saw, that the FBI\ATF came out of that show looking very good.
They specifically never mention their names though. Its implied who they are. Its also implied they were being misled and had little or nothing to do with the situation (which evidence shows is not true).

The main FBI officer goes to Janet Reno in a brief scene where he asks for permission to use the tear gas. She says she will ask the President.
So, they make it clear that they both made that final decision. Other than that, the entire show is focused on the ATF/FBI.
