‘I deserve to know the truth’: Capitol Police Officer Harry Dunn
The Hill ^ | 08/29/22 6:00 AM ET | BY CHEYANNE M. DANIELS

Posted on 08/30/2022 11:23:11 AM PDT by RandFan

For seven weeks, Harry Dunn sat in the same seat before the House Select Committee on the Jan. 6 Attack.

Cameras pointed in his direction snapped photos of his every reaction as details of the insurrection were shared with the public.

Dunn looked on, not paying the photographers any mind. He was there for one reason: to hear the truth.

Dunn, who is Black, was thrown into the spotlight in the weeks following the attack.

The Capitol Police officer’s testimony before Congress detailed the horrors he faced on Jan. 6, 2021, from facing down the mob’s deluge of racial hatred to wondering if he’d make it home alive that night.

“What people have to realize is that I’m not only a police officer, but I’m a victim,” Dunn told The Hill. “I’m an American citizen who cares about this country and wants to see it do right. I’m a patriot. I’m a voter. I’m a taxpaying citizen. This is my country and I deserve to know the truth and make sure this doesn’t happen again.”

As Congress prepares to reconvene in September, Dunn said he’ll be back in the chamber to watch, listen and wait for that truth as the Jan. 6 panel heads toward its conclusion.

An imposing figure standing at 6 foot 7, Dunn, 38, speaks passionately but kindly. He’s unafraid to share his opinion and occasionally, when especially fired up, he’ll let a swear word slip. But he’s also quick to laugh and keep things lighthearted.

Is this the idiot that had his gun pointed at an R congressman? And the guy that left his gun in the bathroom on another occasion?

No that was Michael Byrd, the hero who shot the unarmed 110lb Air Force veteran.

I stop reading any article in which the word “black” is capitalized.

John Sullivan is a fascinating and key character in this drama.

Yep, neither John Sullivan (pictured) nor any of the other BLM/ANTIFA activists that were photographed inside the Capitol Building are in prison awaiting trial. Sullivan was arrested and then released that evening and never charged. I think they were not charged because they were supposed to be there.

No one can sit there for five minutes and hope they will hear the truth, much less seven weeks. I don’t believe he wants to hear the truth as he should already figure out the scam that’s going on.

“For seven weeks, Harry Dunn sat in the same seat before the House Select Committee on the Jan. 6 Attack. . . .Dunn said he’ll be back in the chamber to watch, listen and wait for that truth as the Jan. 6 panel heads toward its conclusion.”

Is he burning up vacation, out on leave without pay, or being allowed to sit watching the hearings on the clock? Inquiring minds want to know if he is receiving special privilege courtesy of his employer — the taxpayer.

"...The Capitol Police officer’s testimony before Congress detailed the horrors he faced on Jan. 6, 2021, from facing down the mob’s deluge of racial hatred to wondering if he’d make it home alive that night..."

A deluge of racial hatred.

Really.

I suspect this person, who stokes the fires of racial hatred to further a political goal, is the worst kind of racist. The kind who uses it to slander people.

The J6 protestors are American heroes.

We should name streets, parks, hospitals and schools after them.

“Deluge of racial hatred”? From Trump supporters?

Fear of racial hatred due to propaganda, at most.

....”Dunn and Lazarus contradicted each other in their respective Oct. 31, 2022 trial testimonies. Dunn first claimed to have seen Lazarus already at the top of that staircase when he arrived at 2:44 p.m., being “hassled” by protestors.

By contrast, Lazarus testified that he saw Dunn already standing at the top of the staircase landing when he came up from behind him on those stairs. Both men lied in their conflicting stories because Lazarus was in a Senate office building at that moment in time.

It is a physical impossibility for either Dunn or Lazarus to have seen what they claimed in their testimonies in the Oath Keepers trial, and this is borne out by what myself and other @theblaze analysts saw on Capitol CCTV videos from access given to us by @RepLoudermilk....”
