The U.S. public is purposefully being kept in the dark about what actually happened on January 6. But it isn’t Donald Trump or his associates that stand in the way — it’s the Democrat-led Congress.
The Capitol Police are seeking to shut down a legal request for its communications and surveillance video on January 6, as was requested in connection with a Judicial Watch lawsuit.
The Congress that oversees the Capitol Police has blocked it from releasing the footage, because it is preposterously not in the “public interest,” nor is it a matter of “public record.” It is also claiming “sovereign immunity.”
The Speaker Pelosi-led House “has argued that the videos and emails are not public records, there is no public interest in their release, and that ‘sovereign immunity’ prevents citizens from suing for their release,” Judicial Watch pointed out.
On January 21, 2021, Judicial Watch issued a request for the following:
• Email communications between the U.S. Capitol Police Executive Team and the Capitol Police Board concerning the security of the Capitol on January 6, 2021. The timeframe of this request is from January 1, 2021 through January 10, 2021.
• Email communications of the Capitol Police Board with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the U.S. Department of Justice, and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security concerning the security of the Capitol on January 6, 2021. The timeframe of this request is from January 1, 2021 through January 10, 2021.
• All video footage from within the Capitol between 12 pm and 9 pm on January 6, 2021.
According to Judicial Watch, the Capitol Police provided the following rationale to the court for continuing to withhold the requested information:

2&^#(&!* ^$@&$@(^
If Republicans ever get majority again, they need to hammer this out. Expose these evil SOB’s.
sobs
Just like the shooting of Ashli Babbitt, it was obvious that all sides in Congress supported it.
It was the only logical conclusion, and it’s been stated now.
.
Sovereign is defined online as “a supreme ruler especially a monarch” Where did Nancy Pelosi get the idea that she was either of those? She is one evil human being.
Nanny is claining sovreign immunity, right?
So whats the diff between that and Absolute
Immunity or are they getting their p’ s & q’ s
mixed up?
Congress does not have sovereign immunity , they are inventing this , a new royalty privilege.
One could even call it a coup attempt imho.

The video is the property of the people of the United States.
‘... supreme ruler especially a monarch” Where did Nancy Pelosi...’
Exactly. Pelosi needs to go down.
The video of AshleyBabbit trying to stop the attack on the speakers lobby is missing!
Why? Where did it go?
It’s a mistake to think that the Republicans will do anything about it even when given the power to do so.
so much for the people’s house. it’s nannie’s now.
Then again, based on comments from the likes of Mitch McConnell (CCP-Kentucky) and Lindsey Graham (Bath house-SC), the Republicans "have it covered".
