(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced that it filed an opposition to the U.S. Capitol Police’s (USCP) effort to shut down Judicial Watch’s federal lawsuit for January 6 videos and emails. Through its police department, Congress argues 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 filed a lawsuit under the common law right of access after the Capitol Police refused to provide any records in response to a January 21, 2021, request (Judicial Watch v. United States Capitol Police (No. 1:21-cv-00401)). Judicial Watch asks for:
Congress exempts itself from the Freedom of Information Act. Judicial Watch, therefore, brought its lawsuit under the common law right of access to public records.

Got news for you San Fran Nan.
The gig is up!
It should but it won’t.
DC is not actually a territory. It is the one and only federal district. As such, congress has complete control, by the constitution and the District of Columbia Organic Act of 1801, which codifies that in federal law.
Beyond lawmaking power, two other (often contentious) aspects of sovereignty are eminent domain (the right of the sovereign to take private property for public use) and sovereign immunity(which offers the sovereign protection from lawsuits).
Well since the President signs a bill into Law, then the President has sovereign power, correct President Trump.
The fact that Congress is hiding potentially exculpatory evidence should weigh heavily on all Jan 6 prosecutions
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Can’t let that out. Would blow their narrative
”In your face” is our communist masters' favorite tool to rattle the chains of tyranny that they have wrapped around our necks...
No Big Deal!
Our communist masters know that the pathetically servile and indolent Aamerican people will just continue to roll over and spread their collective cheeks...
I’m fairly certain that’s not how the checks-and-balances system written into the Constitution works.
BTTT
Simple. After the new Congress is sworn in its Speaker refiles an amendment/retraction to the sovereignty claim.
They will be shredded and erased by then. By mistake, of course. Oopsie-daisy. Sorry about that.
The Speaker of the House is the Commander of the Capitol Police Force.
The Speaker of the House is the Commandant of the Capitol Jail.
Immunity for the democrat lynch mob who wrongfully attacked President Trump.
They dont want to Lea e any windows nor doors open for people to see the contempt they have for America.
Sovereign immunity? Pelosi is now the sovereign? I thought we got rid of sovereigns in 1789. It doesn’t surprise me that elitist Democrats who want to rule over us consider themselves “sovereign”.
Shredding machines will be going full blast until the new Congress is sworn in. Better get a Temporary Restraining Order, and fast.
So they can prosecute and hide evidence of innocence?
That’s absurd.
Probably be upheld, given how corrupt the courts are.
But absurd.
The election of B. Hussein Obama was this nations biggest hoax
The Russia collusion accusation was the 2nd biggest
January 6th is the 3rd.
The left will try to ridiculously compare Jan.6th to Pearl harbor or 911. How about they compare it to the riots at Trumps inauguration which made Jan. 6th look like amateur hour? Completely brushed under the rug, no special televised committee ‘investigation’, no hyper-sensationalized TV reports about it, and this went on for FOUR YEARS!!! FOUR YEARS COMPARED TO FOUR HOURS!!!

Nancy and her goons are NOT sovereigns; they are PUBLIC servants!!!!
Only if we somehow enforce it.
Sounds like the South African guy in Leathal Weapon 2 claiming “Diplomatic Immunity” to which Danny Glover’s character replies “has just been revoked”. We should do the same to Congress. They are using semantics to stop the lawsuit. Obviously they are hiding a lot of what went on including coordinating with the FIB agencey and CIA putting folks like Ray Epps, Megaphone Commander and others inserted into the crowd to provoke them.
defund capital police, move the capital to a neutral location where the jury pool does not depend on handouts from dems...
