Thousands of hours of video footage of the January 6 Capitol police riot demands new methods to reveal the truth.
It's been over 34 months since the events of the 2020 election and January 6th, 2021, sparked a growing fissure in public trust. Those two historic occurrences began public and private debates over facts that still rage unresolved today. Do we the public know enough truth to make informed decisions about either of those events? Have we seen and heard all the actual facts? Is the insurrection narrative that the mainstream media and the Biden administration have been declaring so vehemently a true and accurate representation of what happened?
The J6 defendants, families, attorneys, investigators and now a growing segment of the American public, have been demanding the release of the tens of thousands of hours of Capitol security videos and body cams of that day to settle the debate and prove the facts of what happened in and around the capitol on Jan. 6th. But they got only crickets in response from Congress and Nancy Pelosi.
The now former speaker of the house, Kevin McCarthy, promised to release all the videos after being forced to put it in writing in order to win that seat of power. But in the end, and despite having ample time to honor his promise, he failed to deliver. To appease the outcries, he released a few tantalizing and carefully selected minutes to the press, while obstructing any meaningful investigations into the bulk of the data using the smoke screen of national security.
The new owner of that House of Representatives throne, Speaker Mike Johnson, began to roll out hundreds of hours of internal CCTV cameras on the House website Friday Nov. 17th.

ALL OF IT!
Then maybe our first action should be to cancel our TV subscriptions and stop pouring money into the mainstream media's coffers.
Even if it means giving up on watching the latest Star Trek series.
Where does one find links to the J6 videos?
The Red Hat that showed a badge as he went past a checkpoint?
Maggots are the larvae stage of flies.
Clinton is Lord of the Flies.
He can’t get out of the closet?
Kevin McCarthy lied about releasing all the tapes of J6 and broke many promises. Kevin McCarthy is gone due to his own duplicity. Kevin McCarthy is deep state. “Well Bye,” Kevin McCarthy, you will not be missed.
That’s gonna leave a mark.
Humph.....Trumph’s only requesting about 10 million pages....no big deal.
plus anyone who was “at or within 5 miles of the US Capitol on January 6, 2021.”
That would be a LOT of people
A lot........heh heh.
I hope they have to produce every single one of them.
The judge has a say in what he thinks is relevant to the defense.
This is what that weasel mccarthy should have done months ago.
Video tape produced by the FBI with him and young boys is my bet.
Yes, I understand.
We can hope, though. Also a denial can be grounds for appeal.
In the article, there were people talking about how difficult it would be to analyze the footage, and they broke it down to make it sound kind of hopeless.
I don’t think it is. What if there were a way to crowdsource this video? I mean, after all, that is what releasing it to the Internet does, but it isn’t organized, it happens semi-organically.
We also crowdsource things here, which is why I like it. A lot of things appear that simply are not plausible, and people don’t hesitate to bring that to the attention of posters. And you get to hear opinions you didn’t arrive at yourself. And sometimes you don’t like them.
I find that refreshing.
I know it is probably already possible and is done where I am not seeing it (because most of my online time is spent here on FR) but having a way to have tens of thousands of people looking through video and flagging things for analysis, flagging them, feeding them into a queue of some kind where the meaningless bits of video float to the bottom, and things of significance, like cream, rise to the top for more visibility.
I suppose X works like that, but...having never used it, I don’t know.
One would also think that lawyers who represented various people who were convicted...or plead guilty...would want to see if there's exculpatory evidence to be found in those videos.
Hard work....long work...for sure.
