I have a pimple on my ass I’m renaming Adam Kinzinger.

[telescope115]

Nothing he does is remotely conservative.

Well, as much as I hate to admit it, I voted for him. He had us all fooled.
BOY, did he have us all fooled.
DAMN

[telescope115]

I am in his district. I voted for him. You can have what’s left over…

[TangoLimaSierra]

Adam was driven to tears last night when he realized that he, and his kangaroo court, are being completely exposed.

I see Adam as the bad guy in "A Fish Called Wanda" as he is stuck and is watching the steamroller approaching.

[FamiliarFace]

I hear ya. I’ve had my share of being fooled. Once burned, twice shy.

[BuckeyeGOP]

prove it you fcking crybaby. If tucker is lying it would be the easiest thing to prove and you could bring down fox news for once and for all.

...well??

[DoughtyOne]

Yes, truth is so evil. /s

[Eleutheria5]

I hope so.

[Vaduz]

He still carries his mothers apron strings in his coat pockets.

[CDB]

Adam, since when is telling the truth, “disgusting?” Your “moral compass” is 180 degrees off, like all “wokesters.”

[FLT-bird]

No. Kinzinger’s constant lying is what is disgusting....that, along with the constant lies of the corporate media of which he is now a member.

Tucker Carlson’s exposure of the truth about Jan 6 is refreshing.

[TChad]

Tucker torpedoed the lie that cops were killed by the Jan6 protestors.

Tucker really should have mentioned that Brian Sicknick died of a stroke. As for the other police supposedly killed by the protesters, I have the impression that they simply don't exist.

IIRC, there were a total of five people who died during the Jan 6 events, including Sicknick. They were named at the time by journalist Glenn Greenwald, but I don't have a current link to his coverage then. There were strokes, maybe a heart attack, a woman was crushed by the crowd, etc. Ashli Babbitt was the only person murdered, courtesy of the Capitol Police.

If Tucker wants to interview an authority on those deaths, he should ask his frequent guest, Glenn Greenwald. Name all the dead, and provide their causes of death.

[MplsSteve]

“Former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL), now a CNN contributor...”

Wow, I don’t think any of us saw that post-Congress gig happening to Kinzinger.

[RedMonqey]

I enjoy the hysteria from the LSM over the release of publicly owned documents.

You’d think Tucker was sending photocopies of the atomic bomb to the Nazi’s.

[nathanbedford]

What exactly is it that Tucker has proved that is so consequential?

1. His videos have demonstrated that on some occasions not all those who entered the capital, especially the rotunda, were violent or destructive but were merely observing the building as though they were tourists.

Note: videos of this nature showing passive, nonviolent citizens in the capital building were already available and had been shown in the media.

2. The iconic "insurrectionist," Chewbacca, was escorted about the capital and apparently abetted and encouraged by uniformed police who made no attempt to impede him and in fact in at least one instance attempted to open a door for him, all with the appearance of leading him on a tour of the facility.

Note: videos of the Chewbacca man had already been made available to the public showing him peacefully in the Senate chamber in discourse with a security guard.

3. That the media (apparently CNN) misled viewers by selectively editing the government videos into believing that Sen. Hawley alone fled in fear from a mob when in fact the senator was only one of many senators induced to leave at the behest of the police and he was, in fact, the last to go. Carlson demonstrated that CNN lied or at least misrepresented Sen. Hawley's actions.

Note: the essential fact that Senator Hawley left in a hurry is in no way altered or challenged by Carlson's video, he merely establishes that CNN is up to its old tricks by making it appear that he was alone in fleeing.

4. Carlson asserted that the videos revealed that Ray Epps lied about the his time of departure from the scene by 30 minutes.

Note: how significant is this? Carlson's video does not otherwise incriminate Epps as an enabler of the mob or as an undercover FBI agent. That videos showing apps exhortations to the mob to enter the capital were already freely available.

5. Officer Brian Sicknick was shown to be apparently healthy wearing a helmet to protect his head at a time subsequent to the alleged attack that allegedly killed him.

Note: the narrative that Brian Sicknick was was killed by being struck with a fire extinguisher had long been debunked and available in the media.

7. Carlson asserted that this video had not been made available to criminally charged insurrectionists, contrary to their constitutional right to be afforded evidence in exoneration or mitigation of guilt.

Note: this fact had been well reported.

8. Carlson asserted his conclusion that the bulk of the people entering the capital were peaceful, unarmed (apart from flagpoles) who were not "insurrectionist" and therefore there was no insurrection, no attempted coup.

Note: apart from Carlson's personal conclusion, it was well reported that no insurrectionist was accused of possessing a firearm or other weapon and in fact no, or at most one, person was charged with "insurrection," facts already known.

9. An interview was presented of a police officer who was suspended for wearing a MAGA hat who complained that he failed to receive guidance from his superior officer when he requested it because the capital had been breached by 100 or more protesters.

Note: it was already well established that the police force was inadequate and the response undoubtedly unprofessional, the question has and remains who is responsible and why was the National Guard not put in place? A mid-level police officer who failed to respond to pleas for help is hardly a person whose failings will undo the January 6 narrative.

Having reviewed the material to this extent, I ask what is so consequential? Why are the Democrats so exercised? Why is Mitch McConnell and Senator Mitt Romney criticizing the release of these tapes? Mitch McConnell perhaps because he was either complicit or negligent in failing to summon the National Guard and Mitt Romney because he is Mitt Romney. Why are the Democrats squealing?

I conclude there is nothing earthshaking about what we are watching up to this point. Certainly there is not much new that would alter the course of history or the narrative of January 6.

Keep in mind the 2020 election in which Biden would not venture out of his basement, even as he was the object of allegations of profound corruption being raised from his son' s laptop, which was known to many Americans and yet he officially received 85 million votes and won the election. Keep in mind further that John Fetterman was elected to the Pennsylvania Senate in 2022 when anyone with a television set would know that man could not speak.

We are in a brand-new world in which blatant proof of Democrat perfidy and disqualification for office has no apparent effect, why is the release of these tapes suddenly so consequential in this environment?
