Tucker Carlson: Why are we still talking about this?
Fox News ^ | 1/6/21 | Tucker Carlson

Posted on 01/06/2022 10:31:14 PM PST by conservative98

if you take three steps back as historical events go—if we’re being honest now—January 6th, barely rates as a footnote, really, not a lot happened that day. If you think about it, the presidential election was not overturned, the Capitol was not destroyed. The government wasn't toppled. No matter what you may have heard, not a single elected official was injured, thank God. Police got shoved. Unfortunately, punches were thrown. But the only person who wound up dead from violence was an unarmed protester who was shot to death without warning by a cop. None of the so-called insurrectionists had guns. When was the last time you saw an insurrection like that?

There's a man called Ray Epps, who was a longtime conservative activist. He was captured on camera at least three times, possibly more encouraging people on January 6th and the day before—January 6th Eve, January 5th—encouraging protesters to storm the Capitol.

Epps: Tomorrow we need to go into the Capitol! Into the Capitol! CROWD: What? No! Epps: Peacefully. Crowd: fed! Fed! Fed! Fed! // Epps: Ok folks, spread the word. As soon as the president is done speaking, we go to the Capitol. The Capitol is this direction

Now this man has been dubbed by internet sleuths as the scaffold commander. Now he was shot from a variety of different angles on videotape on January 6th, appearing to give orders to the crowd from an elevated position.

The democrats were saying democracy is in trouble today.

So I looked into it.

Midterm election is November 8, 2022.

Presidential election is November 5, 2024.

Looks like they’re worried about getting their ass kicked.

we are still talking about Jan 6 because it’s a smokescreen that obfuscates a year of rioting, burning, murder and antifa and BLM types attacking folks for the color of their skin, that was encouraged and facilitated by various Democrat, Communist and racist political leaders, including encouraging violence post-election towards Republicans - violence that persists in the mindset of the 57% of brainwashed Dems who now think that Republicans are their ‘mortal enemy’.

“There’s a man called Ray Epps, who was a longtime conservative activist...”

He looks like an FBI conservative actorist. The crowd pegged him. Fed! Fed! Fed!

It's the Left's ranting attempt at legerdemain. Hope the American public isn't that easily fooled.

4 1/2 MINUTES OF INFO YOU MAY FIND HELPFUL FOR THE 2022 ELECTION. THAT, OF COURSE, ASSUMES THE MARXIST DEMOCRATS DON’T COBBLE UP SOME NEW NATIONAL EMERGENCY (INSURRECTIONS WORK), DECLARE MARTIAL LAW, LOCK US DOWN, TRASH THE CONSTITUTION, ROUND UP TROUBLEMAKERS (LIKE US), SCRUB THE ELECTION AND HOLD A CORONATION.

Rioters Set Fire to Historic St John's Church in Washington, DC

BREAKING: St. John’s church in Lafayette Square is burning right now. Every single president since James Madison has sat in that church. It’s a historic landmark and it’s on fire.#Riot2020 #DCProtests #protests2020 pic.twitter.com/C7IDAruu1T— Urban Conservative Politics (@UCPolitic) June 1, 2020

The Parish House of St. John’s Church is on fire - we just completed a 6 million renovation of it last year. This is unconscionable. WHERE IS THE DC FIRE DEPARTMENT.— Brian W. Schoeneman (@BrianSchoeneman) June 1, 2020

“We” are still talking about this because the enemedia newsliars have determined that is what should be on TV, in newspapers, and on the internet - and in doing so, they have decided what SHOULD NOT BE on TV, in newspapers, and on the internet.

Are you saying that Jan.6,2021 was just a decoy to take away from all the real riots & destruction of the summer before & maybe dim people’s memory of it? Well, if so, in my mind it did not work. There was a huge difference in what happened between the two events. Look at those who are being held for the Jan. 6 event in comparison to the many perps who should have been arrested during the summer of rioting. No comparison. Seems to me if the right people had been arrested during the riots & looting that had occurred, that a good number of jails in various places would be filled to capacity with people awaiting trial.There was talk of ANTIFA and/or BLM being declared terrorist groups. What happened to that? Every bit of this seems to be aligned to nothing more than preventing Donald Trump from running for office ever again. That seems to be the whole thing in a nutshell.
