Public Citizen, a liberal activist nonprofit watchdog group, filed an ethics complaint against House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., for releasing security camera footage of the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol to Fox News host Tucker Carlson.

The Washington Examiner reported that the group filed the complaint on Tuesday, accusing McCarthy of being politically motivated. Public Citizen asked the Office of Congressional Ethics to investigate McCarthy to determine if he is in violation of House rules.

So releasing only tidbits that support your lies is "truth" but allowing ALL of the tapes to be seen is politically motivated?

Riiiiight.

Oh, they are targeting him. As opposed to what they normally do to a GOP Speaker? Now, they have put him on double secret targeting.

Remember when the Left wanted government exposed to the citizens?

Democracy should be hung in the public square.

It is nothing more than MOB RULE.

We have a ‘Republic’.

If we can keep it.........................

Of course, when Demonrats target Conservatives, they’re not being one bit “political”!

21st Century American Media: It’s outrageous for the government to release all information transparently! Scandalous!

Whats the matter public citizen? Afraid of the light?

The left are countering the evidence that is being released by claiming that tucker is “cherry picking” evidence to support his agenda. Seems to me though that the remaining video that hasn’t been seen refutes the agenda driven claims of the left and the Jan 6 panel.

Cockroaches hate the light- public citizen certainly has a light sensitivity condition

Let’s hope the leftists are pushing McCarthy over to the conservative side of things.

Can somebody tell us why McCarthy gave the tapes only to Carlson, thereby opening Republicans to the charge of selective release? (Ignore any claims that public release would help terrorists.)

I agree, they should be available to everyone. All 41,000 hours of video.

Tucker dashed the hopes of the left wingers and they don’t like it.

Observation:

It’s becoming apparent that this was the intent all along.

Evidence: They ‘lost’ Hillary’s emails, etc.

They didn’t ‘lose’ the 44k hours of video, leaving proof that they both lied, and it was all just theater. A fraud.

This stinks, and not in the obvious way. Smacks of ‘with intent’.

The endgame under such a scenario is much, much more worrisome.

We now know the truth, question is, what will we do about it?
my guess—Zip.

Wouldn’t it be fun if the democrats started screaming for the recordings to be released to everyone.
