Newly revealed surveillance footage from Jan. 6, 2021, shows two Capitol police officers escorting Jacob Chansley, the be-horned so-called “QAnon Shaman” who has come to symbolize the riot, through the halls of the Capitol and to the very door of the US Senate.
The footage aired on Tucker Carlson’s Fox News show Monday night shows the officers closely following Chansley as he wanders the corridors of the Capitol, bare-chested and wearing face paint and a luxuriant fur hat with Viking horns.
“Virtually every moment of his time inside the Capitol was caught on tape,” says Carlson, who was granted exclusive access by Speaker Kevin McCarthy to 40,000 hours of surveillance footage from that day inside and around the Capitol, which has never been seen before by the public.
“The tapes show the Capitol police never stopped Jacob Chansley. They helped him. They acted as his tour guides.”
At one point, the officers are seen walking Chansley past seven other police officers milling around outside the Senate chamber, who barely give him a second look.
Then they escort him to various entrances of the chamber which appear to be locked. Eventually they help him open a door, and he enters the chamber.
Chansley, a 33-year-old naval veteran from Arizona, has been jailed for almost four years for “obstructing an official proceeding.”
In a jailhouse interview played by Carlson he says: “The one very serious regret that I have [is] believing that when we were waved in by police officers that it was acceptable.

Did you not already know this ?!
“Hat tip House Speaker Kevin McCarthy1”
Maybe not so fast, not so much.
It should be released to the ENTIRE U.S. public, NOT just government functionaries.
It's been better than I expected so far. But Tucker said it would be wrong to identify the Reichstag-Fire-Feds in the videos. Hmmmmm... Somebody has been whispering in Tucker's ear.
Reichstag fire. I knew it all along.
He ssaid he doesn’t have facial recognition software, and can’t positively identify them. It would be reckless to accuse someone whose identity you don’t even have.
The next step is to GET facial recognition software and find the FBI agents instigating this BS!!
At this point, I wouldn’t put half past the government to initially claim this video never existed.
“..Members of the committee should be indicted....”
The Jan 6 protestors need to be released....NOW!!!
Then, lock up these committee jackazzes in their stead...and give em the same, exact treatment the protestors got...and then some.
This thread cries out for that comment.
What Tucker actually said was, "We can't show people without proof of who they really were." Maybe he meant "accuse," maybe not. Obviously there are people in the video who don't want to be identified at all.
It's possible that some are them are not in any image database outside of the deep state, and will never be available to Tucker. And we don't know if the deep state released all of the footage.
I would hope all on the Jan 6 sham committee go to jail knowing everything they said was a lie.
They were trying to jail innocent people like Donald Trump.
The video should all be labeled and posted online, so people can refer to individual frames by reference number.
Crowdsource the investigation.
He trusted the plan.
sham, shaman, shame — they are all pretty close together.
Not totally convinced this shaman is a loose-cannon patriotic type, he could be some kind of agent. What jail is he in? Or where did Tucker Carlson go to interview him one day in jail, and where is he the rest of the time?
But it could well be that he was targetted as a visible “lunatic” type to make the political protest look unhinged.
In any case, half the country evidently knows this was all theater and farce, and the other half may know it at some level but they accept it as a means to an end.
There cannot be treason against an illegal government.
It does. Very peculiar
A true “justice system” would include a provision for someone who withheld exculpatory evidence like this, or in any other way was involved in prosecuting someone fraudulently, to swap places with the accused and serve out their sentence while they go free. THAT would be true justice.
Very much agree.
I think a lot of people in the justice system are lying, cheating and basically gaming the system (on Jan 6 and on every other case anyone can think of). People like that should be treated like criminals and should be dealt with harshly. The Justice System needs to be rigorously honest above all else.
I am absolutely infuriated, I cannot stop thinking about this. A VETERAN with a mental disability railroaded all because that ultra vomitus C Pelosi didn’t like it that Donald Trump called her “crazy Nancy”.
Compare how this guy was treated to all those involved in the Jan.20th 2017 riot in DC when Trump was being inaugurated and the continual lootings, burnings, in every major city for 4 years by BLM and Antifa, why do I never read about any major jail time for those terrorists? And what of the guy who *gasp* had the audacity to sit at Pelosis desk? They threw him the book as well right?
