Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-Fla.) says Fox News host Tucker Carlson’s sympathetic coverage this week of the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack increases the risk for future violence because it creates a space “where people feel like they can do it again.”
In a clip from an interview on Showtime’s “The Circus: Inside the Greatest Political Show on Earth” shared exclusively with The Hill on Friday, the first-term lawmaker said that what Carlson has done with the 41,000 hours of surveillance footage that Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) gave him is “really dangerous.”
“It creates a problem where if there’s not real accountability with people being sympathizers towards the insurrection, it puts us in a position where people feel like they can do it again,” Frost said.
**SNIP**
Frost also criticized the new GOP probe of the House select committee that investigated the insurrection during the past session of Congress. Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-Ga.), who is leading the House Republican investigation, has promised to hold hearings on the matter.
Frost said House Democrats want to work on issues such as affordable housing, gun violence and climate change, but the GOP has prioritized investigations over addressing such issues.
“The things that they brought up during the midterms - inflation, cost of living increasing, etcetera - they’re not working on it now,” Frost said.
“The Circus” will air on Sunday at 8 p.m. on Showtime.

Okay… so next time… bring in the National Guard, stop the FBI from fomenting violence and make sure that the Capitol Police are leading guided tours of congress by unlocking electromagnetic doors…. Or just dont steal elections…. Ez
+1
Their whole idea was to shut us up and make us too afraid to ever protest the evil plans they have in mind to do to us. Protest? Nope, we might end up in a gulag and treated worse than murderers.
So here we are taking every rotten thing they do right up the wazoo because the truth would set us free.
This ass just revealed the reason for the whole Jan 6th debacle.
Amen....... However since Freepers are old and frail, there can be no more demonstrations in DC
Why not steal elections? There is no reason not to.
Stealing elections is like California shop lifting. There’s no punishment and thus no reason not to
Unless it is done by the Republicans and you and me.
Where did Max come from; has he been living under a rock? Vids speak for themselves, Tucker did not have to say a word.
and the rest of the medias covered and the governments response to the BLM riots doesn’t?
LMAO
” Why has NOTHING been done?”
Something has been done. They gave Byrd a commendation.
Indeed, it’s the mainstream medias lack of coverage that makes the leftists ‘feel like they can do it again’
Ashli deserves Justice.
Hmm. The Dems want us to believe that but for extraordinary efforts of the Capital Police, a huge group would have overthrown the government at Trump’s behest.
How exactly did the J6 incident end? Did vast numbers of riot police drag away all those inside the Capitol? Or did the people who had entered just walk away? Tucker Carlson would do us a favor by showing how this ended.
Do what? Take another tour of the Capitol? Try to take our guns and...comment self-censored.
