Capitol lies — footage of police helping protestors was hidden for two years

By Jo Nova

Twenty six months after the so called “deadly insurrection” at the US Capitol, the video tapes that have been hidden are finally available. This was a day that “echoed through history” according to Kamala Harris, who compared it to Pearl Harbor but didn’t want you to see the footage. People are in jail because they dressed up and walked with a police escort through open doors.

It’s a Redpill moment. The few people who did break windows or incite the crowd to do acts of violence have not been arrested.  Who were the Feds?

“Even 57% of Democrats think that it’s at least somewhat likely that Feds were not just there but were also encouraging people to riot or go into the Capitol.” — Thomas Massie Rep Congressman.

The Jan 6th Committee had all this footage. They knew…


Tucker Carlson Fox News

Q Anon, Mr Horns, Capitol Riot. Jacob Chamsley.

..

Jan. 6 footage shows Capitol cops escorting QAnon Shaman to Senate floor

Miranda Devine, New York Post

“The tapes show the Capitol Police never stopped Jacob Chansley. They helped him. They acted as his tour guides.”

And yet in the narrative formed that day by Democrats and much of the media, “Jacob Chansley became the face of January 6, a dangerous conspiracy theorist dressed in an outlandish costume who led the violent insurrection to overthrow America’s democracy,” says Carlson.

Chansley, the horned “Shamen” became the perfect Photo Op for the Democrats. His sentence is four years.

Why were these tapes released now? Apparently Tucker Carlson was given the footage as part of a deal to win over the last few Republican votes that were needed to get Speaker Kevin McCarthy elected as Speaker of the House.

*  *  *

Those with discernment don’t buy it,
The much hyped up Capitol riot,
That a wild mob broke in,
To do battle and win,
But once inside, turned peaceful and quiet.

     –Rauiri

This site is but a cog in an information war. Every news outlet that ran the Insurrection story on January 6th should have been showing these tapes tonight.

        Tony Heller: “The Republican and Democrat leaders of the US Senate say it is a threat to democracy for the press to show evidence that contradicts claims made by authorities.”

        They openly say, with anaesthetised faces, that if the videos contradict the police chief, and people who saw what happened (i.e. the narrative), then the videos are lying. It is unbelievable that such people can remain in office, in a supposedly democratic country.

        Quite true “another ian”. You can see it with all the current policies and media surrounding the current federal ALP government. The general policy ( just like the Biden admin) is to promote every “woke” subject you can to the n’th degree. That generates the most social and MSM media coverage. It also happens down at Australian state level. The Andrews government have been particular adept at it. During COVID there was a comment that was repeated many times over, but I think initially by Biden. That is, it was going to be a pandemic of the unvaccinated. 2 days after Biden uttered those words , who should repeat it? Daniel Andrews, word for word.

          Undoubtedly, the ALP will follow in the footsteps of the democrat administration, and our own swamp will help them. And all their actions are linked. From the Treehouse today –

          “When Jerome Powell says they are raising interest rates to “cool the economy,” the raw truth behind the statement is the central banks are trying to reduce the western economies in order to meet the diminished energy production created by policy. If they can make the economy smaller, less energy is needed….. and this should stem the rising costs from limiting the resource development.

          Their problem is that baseline energy demand remains high. This is keeping energy prices high…. this is keeping inflation high. Their approach to continue raising interest rates, will only work if they achieve an economic outcome similar to the pandemic lockdown period.”

          Fascinating ‘grilling’ of Jerome Powell by John Kennedy in the article https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2023/03/07/inflationary-gaslighting-fed-chair-says-interest-rates-likely-to-be-higher-than-previously-expected/#more-244055

    Both Nancy Pelosi’s Daughter and Son in law were at the Capitol that day.

    The Son in Law was outside the Capitol Building and meeting with Q-Anon Shaman just minutes before he was escorted through the Capitol Building, by police, into the Senate Chamber.

    While this meeting was underway (and prior to any entry into the capitol building) Nancy’s Daughter was inside, with her mum, filming a ‘Documentary’ about Nancy in which Nancy specifically said the following “I’ve been waiting for this … Trespassing on the Capitol Grounds”.

    Just for the purpose of clarification – the protesters had applied for & been granted permission to protest on the Capitol Grounds, but not (obviously) inside the Capitol Building.

    This is further evidence that Nancy Pelosi helped plan and execute this ‘insurrection’.

        They = an evil cabal of Democrats, Never-Trumpers, Rino’s and Deep state operatives that had a track record of spying on, leaking against and impeaching Trump on bogus allegations, that oversaw the expansion of mail out ballots and then ballot harvesting illegally in order to expel Trump from the White House.

        They brought the protesters inside to try and banish Trump from public life, so that nobody like him would ever dare take them on again.
        They did it to distract the people from the underlying truths of ‘the big lie’ … where they admit they ‘fortified’ election result & where Biden in particular acknowledged “We have put together, I think, the most extensive and and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics.”
        They did it for petty revenge.

        They had the motives and there is rampant evidence that they acted on those motives.

        “While Fox is the only station showing it, it will have no legs.”

        Is this because Fox appears to be waging a quiet counteroffensive, having placed Trump under a “soft ban,” according to Semafor?

        “Everyone knows that there’s this ‘soft ban’ or ‘silent ban,’” one Trumpworld source told the outlet. “It’s certainly…indicative of how the Murdochs feel about Trump in this particular moment.”

    With the help of the Gateway Pundit and other alternative news sites we have strongly suspected that the Feds staged the “riot” in order to entrap Republicans who were simply demonstrating their anger at the obvious election cheating that denied Trump his second term. My dismay was that the FBI, an organisation held in high esteem since watching Ephram Zimbalist Junior star in the TV programme, was another Democrat controlled weapon to be used against fellow Americans. We saw organised operatives break windows, encourage the surge inside (see Ray Epps) and facilitate the entry into the inner chambers by very peaceful people. Then the confected outrage and lies. We also saw the photos of Roslynd Boyd being killed by a female cop and Ashley Babbitt being shot by a man who was not under any sort of threat and yet both those criminals are still running free and even received commendations for bravery. That female cop beating Boyd to death deserves to be in jail and yet walks free while innocent Mr buffalo head rots in jail. Many of those arrested have been held without trial and denied bail for two years based on false testimony. The US DOJ is totally corrupt and this release of films will go some way to exposing that corruption.

    As Dave mentioned above, a fairly safe rule of thumb to ascertain the truth is to just take the opposite of whatever a Leftist says.

    In fact, the nature of evil doers as claiming the opposite of truth has been recognized for a long time:

    Isaiah 5: 20
    Woe to those who say of the evil that it is good and of the good that it is evil; who present darkness as light and light as darkness, who present bitter as sweet and sweet as bitter.

Likewise Ben Fordham on 2GB keeps reminding his listeners that during Mondays demand on electricity 68% was coming from black coal and that this morning less than 10% was coming from renewables. It only takes a few more media outlets to start laughing at the renewable fools and the change will start. Suddenly Matt Kean realises he better shore up Eraring before it winds down or NSW will be in blackout and he will be held responsible.

      Bumped from Tuesday Open

      “Well now there’s a problem.

      Tucker has released video that pretty-much blows a hole in the entire January 6th narrative. In fact, it blows it up, sets it alight and watches it burn to ash.

      This is a serious problem for a number of reasons, not the least of which is the number of people sitting in prison — or convicted on connived, false claims with no ability for their defense to access the evidence proving that in many cases they were escorted.

      At worst most of these people are guilty of trespass, but even there you likely can’t make it stick as trespass is voided if you’re invited or chaperoned, and its quite clear that at least in some cases — they are.

      There’s another problem too: The Brady decision by the USSC makes clear that the prosecution must turn over all evidence they have which exculpates a defendant. It’s not optional and it dates to 1963. The violations here are severe and in fact it appears basically universal.

      Indeed the definition of malicious prosecution is to bring a case before the court where you know the exculpatory evidence is so strong you’d never win a conviction and you intentionally withhold it from the defense. That opens up the DOJ and even the individuals involved to personal liability.

      I have no idea how the DOJ thought they’d get away with this indefinitely, but apparently they did think they would.

      Well, not any more.

      Now the question becomes if the government will not live to its own laws, what remains?

      It’s not a pleasant question to ponder, but ponder it we must, and the implications do not just extend to January 6th.

      Unfortunately.”

    The difference in this particular lie, as opposed to all the others, is that it has no deniability. The Dem leadership, Pelosi & Schumer, run the capital police. They created, and have for two years reinforced, this particular fraud as official party policy. Violation of civil rights and manipulation of state security are now here official party instruments with no middlemen; technically, for starters, these two leaders denied defendants access to exculpatory evidence. The list of other violations is long. They, as congress-critters,
    may have immunity in the law. Perhaps not, for in other contexts, they have given civil rights cases special rules.

    Few things that politicians do really enrage people any more; the bar has been lowered to the point it’s underground. But improper incarceration of the innocent for political gain is one of those “there by the grace of God go I” things that might strike a chord in the US, considering that we no longer seem interested in incarceration of actual criminals.

    “My opponent put her political enemies in jail and let violent thugs roam the streets unmolested” is a powerful campiaign theme, especially if it’s true.

    Tucker Carlson has been given the “official” video footage from the capitol building. But at the time there was an incredible amount of private phone videos of J6 and a lot posted on social media. A number of alternative news sites also showed this same video. There was video of busloads of suspicious looking protestors being dropped off near the Capitol building. Probably agent provocateurs. Video of capitol police pushing aside security barriers to let protestors in closer to the building. Video of outside doors to the building being opened by people in uniform. Not main doors, but side fire exit type doors. Then also video of the scene where Ashley Babbitt was shot, showing a strange man with a backpack. So, do we add this to the long line of news events which the MSM ignore ( well, apart from FOX)? That list includes Project Veritas/ Pfizer executive expose, Nordstream pipeline, Epstein island visitor list and then all the COVID stuff.

    A storm is developing around Tucker Carlson because of the videos.
    Lawmakers, Capitol Police chief blast Fox News’ Tucker Carlson over Jan. 6 footage

    The U.S. Senate’s Democratic and Republican leaders, along with other lawmakers and the White House criticized Fox News and its host Tucker Carlson for airing footage of the deadly Jan. 6 insurrection in a way that portrayed it as a peaceful visit to the U.S. Capitol.
    The U.S. Capitol Police’s chief and the romantic partner of Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, who died a day after being attacked with other cops by members of the mob of Trump supporters, also blasted Carlson for his Monday broadcast.
    The Jan. 6, 2021, riot began after weeks of false claims by former President Donald Trump that he, and not President Joe Biden, had won the 2020 election.

    What to know about the Tucker Carlson January 6 footage

    CNN — Fox News host Tucker Carlson aired newly released footage on his show Monday from the January 6, 2021, US Capitol attack, that included images of the rioter known as the “QAnon Shaman,” as well as of Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, who died following the attack.

    Tucker Carlson, with video provided by Speaker McCarthy, falsely depicts Jan. 6 riot as a peaceful gatheringy

      Well, they would be right, based on the complete lack of success Trump has had so far in his fight against them. We conservatives may huff and puff our outrage, and attend the odd protest, but the two largest demos so far – the truckers in Canada and the Capitol Hill ‘insurrection’ – achieved nothing. Likewise the extraordinary violence used by Dan Andrews’ goons, publicised widely, had no consequences for him because there he sits, still premier.

    Not a stretch to assume they concocted fake other stuff.
    Like election victory.
    Or ‘insurrection’.
    Just sayin’.
    It would be gauche for me to mention AGW.
    Or a global Pand … never mind.

    It’s not a stretch to surmise that the FBI was involved in this. Remember the Michigan Governor Whitmer kidnapping plot that was led by FBI?
    Why hasn’t Epps been arrested? Not only did he attempt to incite an incursion into the Capitol Building but he lied under oath about his whereabouts.
    Who were the people dressed all in black with backpacks, gas masks, black hoodies and black masks? Not exactly the garb of patriots wanting to peacefully protest……

      Ray Epps was recorded on video, multiple times, imploring people to invade the Capitol Building: “We’ve got to go INTO the Capitol”.

      Before those words, he would start with:

      1) “I’ll probably go to jail for saying this but…”, or
      2) “It’s probably illegal to say this but…”

      I’m not the legal expert around here, but it sounds like he was inciting people to do something he knew was ILLEGAL. Anyone within earshot of his ‘instructions’ would have a legal defence, wouldn’t they? e.g. “Your Honor, I was incited by Ray Epps who was working — in some capacity — for a federal agency”.

      But we know he’ll never be arrested .. Must’ve been a ‘provocateur’ .. and that’s why he’s protected by the authorities.

      Steven D’Antuono* will know the details .. He’s the thread that — if pulled on — might unravel a bunch of dirty dealings, leading back to the J Edgar Hoover Bldg.

      *Fed chief in Michigan at the time of the Whitmer ‘kidnapping’ fiasco, then became Chief in Washington DC Field Office in time for the Jan 6 ‘mass trespass’.
      “Good timing, Steve! … A special talent for orchestrating ‘provocateurs’, perhaps?”

    Release the tapes to the public. Tens of thousands of people will go through them. More will be found. People will be recognized. Things will be noticed. Why not? Certainly the myth that there was a violent riot has been busted, but there will be more.

    This was a very successful conspiracy to create the National appearance of a riot which could be exploited by the incoming administration, distracting from the fraud of the election itself which was the entire issue being protested. And now two years later and closer to the next election, the perpetrators feel that people and politicians will be focused on the next election, even the Republicans. Job done.

    So release the tapes. And find out what part the FBI/CIA/Police and Pelosi/Schumer played in orchestrating this fake insurrection. Was it successful? Very. Did they get away with it? Yes.

    Were all the tapes released? Unlikely. Was the FBI/CIA/DOJ involved. Certainly. They work for the Democrats.

      It’s hard to believe that a man escorted everywhere by the police and who thanked them for their help is serving four years for violent insurrection and trespass.

      Is wearing outrageous clothes or costume and makeup now a federal offence? In which case Sam Brinton should be in jail, not least for stealing tens of thousands of dollars of womens clothes and suitcases and extremely poor taste.

    But once inside, turned peaceful and quiet.

    There are people still rotting in jail cells, in terrible conditions, without a trial, just for being at the capitol that day. On the other hand, an unarmed veteran was shot in cold blood just for trying to climb through a window and her killer was let off scott free. Disgusting.

      Have you seen the rest of the 14000 hours? That’s what they are “rotting” in jail for.

      The 2 minutes of tape showing police diverting trespassers away from their intended targets and de-escalating the situation doesn’t change that.

      But, you know. Nancy wanted to stop the vote that day because of reasons

            The prosecutors are far-left operatives, intent on hiding the truth.

            You can bet the courts have not seen the footage of people being GUIDED BY POLICE.

              Tuckers video’s do show what really happened, just different aspects to “Broadies preferred vid”. Let it be, OK?

              Has anyone got footage of Ashley Babbit arriving and who she turned up with? Is she seen conspiring with the Feds? Have anyone got her phone records, leaked emails, FOI information, claims from her former school that she didn’t exist? Do we have photos of who played Ashley Babbit in the Psy-Op? Until there is some evidence, all you have is a suggestive video. Tucker, Bannon, Trump etc probably make the rational decision that hanging their entire reputation on that is high risk, little gain (what if it was a CGI to bait them?)

              We already have enough hard evidence that J6 was a set up and that people should not be in jail, that Congress lied, the media helped, and the main beneficiaries were Democrats+Uniparty-Reps who got to hide the testimonies of people about the election breaches.

              Those who win the information war have the discipline to pick the battles worth fighting, and not attack their own soldiers on the front line.

          But only takes one shot of someone unlocking doors or doing damage to change the picture. And who was doing it.

          If the police did not want these people inside and were prepared to use deadly force, there would have been no intrusion. So they were let in. That was a decision. Whose?

          The months long armed invasion, arson, murder, pillage and rape and riot by AntiFA in Portland and many other place was classified as ‘mostly peaceful’ by the same press who called this short period of genuine protesters invited into the building a violent insurrection. Everyone was taking tourist shots and no one was armed, no one in balaclavas, no one avoiding cameras. That’s not an insurrection. That’s a protest, a civil right.

            Not true. You can’t just look at a shot of someone opening a door and know the context and intent. 2 minutes of “looks to be”, “might be” is meaningless pap, just like all those overdubbed videos from election night.

        Why are you so aggrieved already it takes a while to go through the video files to separate them out and see what minimal classified material needs to be addressed and also for Tucker to make a commentary over it yet just a single first report has the democrats howling demanding censorship, but no credible counter has been made on what he released.

    I knew this whole fiasco was staged just based on the costumes and outfits of the “protesters” and the absurdity of unarmed lunatics breaching one of the most heavily guarded buildings in the world. Almost as insane as the passport that survived the fireball on 9/11 to be found on the day of the attacks… “if you can believe that”.

    Reversal of all charges and convictions, as well as substantial federal-money reimbursement to all affected for each day of loss of freedoms, is going to be a profitable Republican campaign promise in the upcoming prez election.

      Just a note …
      I lived and worked within walking distance from the Capitol for many years.
      Even once witnessed a very famous US Senator stumbling staggering drunk down E. Capitol Street in broad daylight.

      The idea that authorities can’t keep trespassers out of important buildings (if they want to) is ridiculous.
      Especially true after 9/11.
      Which was not as bad as 1/6.

      How much money and time did the Jan 6th committee spend on this ‘violent insurrection’? We know why.

      “Chief of Police, J. Thomas Manger, who depicted Monday’s video footage as “offensive” and would lead to “misleading conclusions.”

      Four congressional committees have statutory oversight.[10] The authority of the Capitol Police Chief is, in many ways, restrained. The Capitol Police chief reports to the Capitol Police Board, a three-person group composed of the Senate and House Sergeants at Arms and the Architect of the Capitol.[11] The Capitol Police Board consists of the Sergeant at Arms of the U.S. House of Representatives, the Sergeant at Arms and Doorkeeper of the U.S. Senate, and the Architect of the Capitol. The Chief of the United States Capitol Police serves in an ex-officio non-voting capacity. The Chairmanship alternates annually between the House and Senate Sergeants at Arms.

      The Chairman of the Capitol Police at the time of the 1/6/2021 event was Sergeant at Arms of the House, controlled by Nancy Pelosi.

    Don’t forget that Jan 6th hype and the show trial are all about keeping Trump out and to cover up how they got Trump out.

    There are only three possibilities to those who have pushed this Jan 6th false narrative for the last two years:

    1)There are too stupid to see it.
    2)They have been bought and paid for by the perpetrators of the stolen election.
    3)They are among the perpetrators of the stolen election.
