Yes, there was violence inside the Capitol on J6, but the police committed it
American Thinker ^ | 11/25/2023 | Andrea Widburg

The newly released J6 footage is a revelation because it shows that the “insurrection” was not by, of, and for the people, it was by, of, and for the government. When it comes to events inside the Capitol, there’s growing evidence that the violence came not from the people peacefully and reverentially wandering around but from law enforcement. Certainly, the most recent footage appears to bear that out.

There are two narratives about January 6. The dominant one is the Democrat narrative. Practically within minutes of events on January 6, every Democrat politician and media outlet was claiming an “insurrection.” Endlessly repeated footage and still photos showed a huge crowd outside the Capitol, black-clad masked figures breaking into the Capitol, Trump supporters streaming into the Capitol, and the “QAnon Shaman” (escorted by a guard) surveying the Senate chamber. Police officers had been beaten to death. America was over.

The media endlessly reinforced that narrative. The FBI engaged in the biggest manhunt in American history. Almost three years later, many of those arrested are still languishing in prison, uncharged and untried. The House, under Nancy Pelosi’s control, and with help from a couple of NeverTrump Vichy Republicans, engaged in the farcical January 6 Committee investigation and hearings, complete with weeping cops.


Image: Trump supporters in the Rotunda. YouTube screen grab. (By the way, this is a blurry screengrab. You’ve probably noticed fabulously clear Getty and AP photos from inside the Capitol. I’ve long wondered how they got them.)

However, behind this propaganda, another narrative was emerging, one bolstered by actual data and video footage. Here are just a few examples:

But still, this was always just a small part of the narrative. The Democrats and Kevin McCarthy refused to release the full 41,000 hours of video generated by the Capitol’s own security cameras. Mike Johnson finally stopped the censorship, and crowd-sourcing is revealing the full story of a day that the Democrats have used to persecute, prosecute, imprison, and silence their political opponents.

The latest revelation comes from Julie Kelly , who introduces footage showing that the police ambushed Trump supporters who were peacefully and reverentially wandering through the Rotunda on January 6 (most of whom, almost certainly, had no idea they’d been trespassing given that signage had been removed and police were welcoming them in). Kelly has the details, but here’s the overview:

At 3 p.m., footage shows people peacefully wandering through the Rotunda. No one appears to be committing acts of violence against persons or property. Two minutes later, Capitol police storm in from the Rotunda’s south side and begin shoving and grabbing protesters. (Keep in mind that many of these protesters were elderly.) The masked police also seemingly used chemical gas.

Three minutes after that, D.C. officers stormed the room, again physically assaulting people who, minutes before, had simply been standing there or wandering peacefully around.

The police didn’t seem interested in arresting anyone or guiding them to leave the building. They were just pushing them around and corralling them in a corner of the rotunda.

Kelly notes that these law enforcement actions violated D.C.’s use of force laws. These require police to de-escalate situations and use all means other than physical force to deal with them. In this case, though, the police came in loaded for bear.

A lot of these tapes came out a day or two later but then disappeared.

What got me the most was a pix of Brian Sicknick and the fire extinguisher that came out a few days after he died. A photo was taken 90° from the original and showed the extinguisher nicked the helmet of the cop next to him but the media ran with the “He was murdered!” story for months.

1. In 2000 mules, they identified the people stuffing ballots into the drop boxes using phone data. Why weren’t the perpetrators prosecuted and pressured to identify the people who organized the criminal activity?

2. In the J6 incident, they know who the capitol police are. Why don’t they prosecute the bad cops and pressure them to identify their organizers?

3. It’s been almost 3 years.

I just call it the Fedsurrection without qualifying it. People might object to the use of it, but I just continue to use the word to rebrand it. You can tell it irks the left but my leftie friends know the feds were involved because it’s a pattern even they can’t not notice.

A new J6 committee should be formed to subpoena Pelosi..... and her daughter ......who was apparently privy to the facts of the Dem’s J6 conspiracy. The daughter was videotaping Pelosi to get her mother’s biased take on the events in order to display them to the original J6 committee.

As we saw w/ Trump, the new thing is to rake the children over the coals.

Video footage, recorded by Pelosi’s daughter, Alexandra, a documentary filmmaker, showed Pelosi and Schumer on the scene, dithering about what to do.

The video was shown during the J6 committee’s 10th hearing as an alleged illustration of President Trump’s supposed “inaction” WRT the peaceful protesters and the cowardly Dem lawmakers who were hiding.

We demand a new J6 committee subpoenaing Pelosi, her staff, Capitol
Police leadership, Ray Epps, Chris Wray..........and dozens of others,

(The Federalist—circa 2022) The inspector general for the U.S. Capitol Police (USCP) has opened a formal investigation into whether the law enforcement agency tasked with securing the Capitol has been inappropriately surveilling elected members of Congress, their staff, and visitors to their offices, The Federalist has learned.

The opening of the investigation follows news reports and accusations from lawmakers that USCP has overstepped its bounds as it tries to recover from the January 6 riots that tarnished both the Capitol and the reputation of the law enforcement agency that was supposed to keep it safe.

Related - Pelosi’s Capitol Police are alleged to have illegally entered the office of Congressman Troy Nehls (R-TX), photographing confidential legislative products and grilling staff, according to reports. The police – now under formal investigation – stand accused of dressing up as construction workers and attempting another entry just two days later. Reports suggest Capitol Police have built intelligence dossiers on those illegally investigated.

OBSERVATION - Pelosi has converted the Capitol police into her how personal stazi. The incidents are egregious. Should the democrats lose the house in November, the incoming republicans should clean house an have heads roll (figuratively). This is another step taking govt agencies and targeting protected activity of citizens and their representatives.

Related, Representative Louie Gohmert has accused the DoJ of intercepting mail from his constituents and illegally holding it. In one case, mail was withheld from the Congressman for over four months. “It is gravely concerning that since Congressional mail is constitutionally protected under the Speech and Debate Clause of the Constitution, it could be routed, intentionally or not, through the highly partisan DOJ. This is felonious behavior.”

OVERALL OBSERVATIONS - These heinous Capitol police and DOJ actions point to a more aggressive move by the Biden/leftist govt against US citizens. If a CW2 scenario goes hot, the likelihood of active involvement by govt agencies skyrocket. It ceases to be a more “culture conflict” between Red and Blue, but hate-filled Biden’s Fed Govt vs Red States and American citizens in Red States.

“Nobody better **** with a Biden.”

On Fox News, Sonya LaBosco, Biden’s Director of the Air Marshals National Council said Air Marshals are quietly following Americans who flew into the DC area around Jan 6, 2021.

Vengeful Biden’s TSA has now ordered Air Marshals (who are DOT employes w/ no L/E duties):
<><>to follow J6 people who have not had any type of criminal investigation –
<><>they haven’t committed a crime,
<><>there is no evidence their J6 attendance was illegal,
<><>now three years later Biden insists they are to be followed 24/7.

The Fox News host weighed in, “You’re saying Air Marshals aren’t…tracking terrorists at all?”

HAMAS is laughing so hard they’re rolling on the floor while planning their next moves in the US...

This is just astonishing.
Every air passenger who flew into the DC area.
