Panic in D.C.: Merrick Garland Tells Whopper of a Lie, Proving Why Tucker's Jan. 6 Coverage Was So Important
Red State ^ | 03/07/2023 | Nick Arama

We’ve been seeing quite a lot of panic in D.C. with all kinds of freakouts in reaction to Tucker Carlson’s Jan. 6 video coverage.

Adam Kinzinger has been melting down all day, even going on CNN, then getting schooled by former U.S. Ambassador to Germany Ric Grenell. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer lost his mind on the Senate floor and was flipping out so much, he’s demanding that Fox head Rupert Murdoch stop Tucker Carlson from going on with more Jan. 6 coverage.

Nothing says “saving democracy” by trying to stop the speech of your political opponents.

Schumer out and out lied on the Senate floor — claiming that Carlson said Jan. 6 was not violent. Carlson said no such thing. He said that while there was violence, there were other protesters inside the Capitol who were not violent. Schumer is the one lying because he doesn’t want that basic truth to be told.

This isn’t the first time that Schumer has gone after Fox and tried to suppress speech. I wrote just last week about how Chuck Schumer had threatened Fox, saying he not only had a “right to tell Rupert Murdoch and Fox what to do but an obligation.” He said “democracy was at greater risk than it’s ever been,” that Fox must admit they told “lies” or he will take other “steps.”

I don’t disagree with him that “democracy” and our freedoms are at risk — from Schumer threatening them himself.

They are truly panicking that the narrative is becoming unhinged when it comes to Jan. 6, that people are seeing that there are other takes, apart from the cherry-picked narrative of the Jan. 6 Committee and the Democrats which was all about using the riot to attack former President Donald Trump and affect the midterms. Among the people the show reached was Twitter head Elon Musk, he saw the points being made.

But while Schumer and Kinzinger were certainly deplorable with their remarks on the day, it may be Attorney General Merrick Garland who had the worst lie. He was asked by a reporter during a press briefing what he thought about Carlson’s coverage. Listen, as even now, Garland lies. He talks about officers assaulted on “that day” and then says, “Five officers died.”

No officers died that day. The only person “killed” that day was Ashli Babbitt who was shot by a Capitol Police officer. Now multiple police officers committed suicide in the subsequent months. That might raise other questions as to why that might be. But it’s a lie, and grossly misleading to say that they were killed or that they died that day.

But this is just an example of why Tucker Carlson’s Jan. 6 coverage was so important. Dems and media have been lying about this specific point since the beginning, as Carlson noted, to make the riot worse, to add “deadly” to it. That’s why this lie is so disgusting, yet even now, it’s continuing, proving Tucker’s point. The Democrats don’t care about honesty or the facts, just that narrative.

>Now we know why the extreme far lefties were pissin’ and moaning so hard that they couldn’t get their little commie on the SCOTUS.

Imagine what hell we would’ve been put through if we hadn’t elevated Trump above the ‘normal’ Democrat fraud in 2016. They didn’t fight it because ‘her’ wasn’t supposed to lose.

Obvious to me he caved on more tapes. Only one who could do that was murdock. They probably threatened their broadcast license. I put nothing past that pile of turds running DC.

Where did you get the idea the family were given a choice? This is the classic ‘plata o plumo’ if I’ve ever heard it.

It takes 67 senators to convict and remove from office. I’m not sure taking a vote in the senate would do much. Plus Lisa Monaco seems just about as bad.

Something about gooberment officials lying on the record ain’t right.

Isn’t there some form of punishment for that?

Nope. None.

Was the Babbitt shooting caught on the official cameras? Was she on video before the shooting?

We dodged a big bullet with the GOP blocking Garland from being a Supreme Court justice. Just look at the damage he as done as AG in two years, and imagine what he could have done by issuing opinions on major cases before SCOTUS.

On a side note, has anyone seen the reporting that the attorney for Qanon Shaman said the video shown by Carlson is video he has never before seen?

The fact that Constitutional, Criminal, and Evidence attorneys, both practicing and in academia, aren’t lining up to object to the malicious prosecution of these defendants is very telling. To them, the ends justifies the means.

Doesn’t look like Tucker is releasing any video tonight, I wonder who got to him

I saw that too and was wondering the same thing.

I think Tucker is strategically holding on to releasing more videos until later (Wednesday?), just to wait and summarize how the MSM, Rinos and Rats respond today. I hope he then reports on their immediate panic reactions and stupidity.

Exactly. So when good guys in the media say …. No officers died that day. The only person “killed” that day was Ashli Babbitt who was shot by a Capitol Police officer……

They lie also.

Hopefully, Tucker will cover that murder, as well.

I believe he did last night . I might be mistaken I have seen it so many times.

John Sullivan was charged in federal court after being arrested by the @FBI. He was heard allegedly egging on protesters in video he provided, according to a federal criminal complaint. He remains in custody in Utah, on a U.S. Marshals hold request: https://t.co/e14U2xSWg4

The UK tabloid The Sun also reported on Sullivan’s arrest, with a headline reading “MOB AGITATOR? BLM activist John Sullivan at Capitol riot ARRESTED after shouting ‘it’s our house’ and ‘we got to BURN this s***’”:

Was the Babbitt shooting caught on the official cameras? ****

I don’t know.

But there is a video by a citizen journalist filming ppl walking from the Trump rally towards the capitol.

She is recorded looking at the camera and talking to the camera guy.

***Was she on video before the shooting?***

The official one, I don’t know. See my comment above.

There is a video of her being shot, taken by Jaden X aka John Sullivan, who was leading ppl into the capitol, and encouraging them.

Garland is a coward, weasel and lying little prick. In other words, a typical Democrat. Even ground slugs avoid him because he is slimier than they are.

He should be subpoenaed before every House Committee/subcommittee that can legitimately question him on many fronts/issues.
