Jacob Chansley, the January 6th protester cast by the media as a 'violent insurrectionist' and sentenced to nearly four years in federal prison, has been vindicated in the eyes of many, after new footage emerged last week which refutes the entire narrative surrounding the events of that day.After reviewing footage withheld from the public by the January 6th Committee, Fox News host Tucker Carlson revealed that Chansley (given the moniker "QAnon Shaman"), was calmly escorted throughout the Capitol complex by Capitol Police, who even helped him find open doors.“The tapes show the Capitol police never stopped Jacob Chansley," said Carlson....

The newly released footage of Jacob Chansley, the "QAnon Shaman" from the Capitol protest on Jan. 6, only shows four minutes of his time inside the Capitol, according to a new court filing. The footage, released by Fox News host Tucker Carlson on Monday, does not include most of the evidence that is damaging to Chansley, according to the filing by prosecutors of Proud Boys member Dominic Pezzola, who was also sentenced for his involvement in the Capitol riot. Of the footage that Carlson has shown, the filing read, all of it took place between 2:56 p.m. to 3 p.m....

Former President Donald Trump told Breitbart News exclusively he is very pleased that House Speaker Kevin McCarthy made the decision to release surveillance footage from the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021.McCarthy’s move to provide some tapes to Fox News host Tucker Carlson, which aired last week, captured the attention of the nation because the tapes Carlson aired undercut several official narratives proffered previously by the now-defunct House January 6 Select Committee. McCarthy, in an exclusive interview with Breitbart News last week, pledged that he will release the entire cache of surveillance footage publicly once congressional advisers finish poring over...

Pete Santilli drops bombs on January 6th narrative. Santilli says the FBI facial recognition confirms majority of initial capitol breachers were federal agents.

Former President Donald Trump reacted to Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson releasing new and unseen footage from the Capitol Hill riot that unfolded on January 6, 2021, which appears to portray a different picture than the one that former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) painted.Throughout Tucker Carlson’s segment on Monday, footage showed scenes that ran contrary to some of the narratives put forth by the likes of former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) and the January 6 committee by claiming that rioters had participated in an “insurrection.” One particularly jarring piece of footage actually appeared to show Jacob Chansley, a.k.a. the...

Feminist author Naomi Wolf offered a formal apology to conservatives who "put America first" after reviewing newly-released footage of the January 6, 2021 Capitol riot. "Peaceful Republicans and conservatives as a whole have been demonized by the story told by Democrats in leadership of what happened that day," Wolf said in a lengthy post on Substack Thursday. "Republicans, conservatives, I am sorry. I also believed wholesale so much else that has since turned out not to be as I was told it was by NPR, MSNBC and the New York Times," Wolf also said. "Anyone in leadership who misrepresented to...

Gosar laid the epic gauntlet down on an appearance on the Stew Peters Show. Republican Arizona congressman Paul Gosar told Stew Peters on Monday that if House Speaker Kevin McCarthy does not release all of the January 6 footage in his possession then Gosar is “sure” that Republicans will discuss the possibility of removing McCarthy from the speakership with a motion for McCarthy to “vacate the chair.” Gosar made the comment in an appearance on The Stew Peters Show. Kevin McCarthy won the Speaker’s gavel after a contentious and historical 15-vote marathon during the first week of 2023. He only...

Its been almost two years now since we were first contacted by January 6 police brutality victim Philip Anderson. Phillip Anderson was on the ground on the steps of the US Capitol with Rosanne Boyland when she died that day. Phillip was knocked unconscious at the time when he was gassed and pushed into a pile by Capitol Police. He was later rescued and revived by Jake Lang, a current January 6 political prisoner. Rosanne Boyland was not as “lucky.” She was killed that day by Capitol Police. Cara Castronuova at The Gateway Pundit later posted video of Capitol Police...

VIDEOA few days ago I uploaded a rather low resolution video featuring a J6 fedsurrectionist. Unfortunately that low resolution makes it difficult to identify him. However, the GOOD NEWS is that I found a much better resolution video (and much longer) of the same scene from a different angle. In fact, the improved resolution and longer length made it possible to easily identify MORE fedsurrectionists. At least THREE and probably FOUR fedsurrectionists were identified. Oh, and if you thought from the first video that the blonde woman standing by the window was a mere bystander, you can see in this...

During an interview with Charlie Kirk on his radio show on Tuesday, Florida Republican congressman Matt Gaetz announced that Republicans would be releasing 14,000 hours of January 6 tapes that have been hidden from the public. Gaetz said that releasing the tapes “would give more full context to that day rather than the cherry-picked moments of the January 6th committee.” The Republican congressman revealed that this was one of the deals he made with House Speaker Kevin McCarthy to give the American people more context about the events on January 6th instead of the narrative pushed by the Democrat party.

Looks like we will finally get the full story on what really happened on January 6th. Congressman Matt Gaetz (R-FL) told Charlie Kirk today on Kirk’s radio show that the new Republican Congress will unveil the hidden J6 tapes. Gaetz told Charlie Kirk that releasing the tapes “would give more full context to that day rather than the cherry-picked moments of the January 6th committee.” He further explained this is one example of the deal made with Kevin McCarthy to provide the American people the truth rather than the lies propagated by the Biden Regime. VIDEO Here is the relevant...

House Republicans intend to release 14,000 hours of January 6 tapes that have been hidden from the public, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) revealed on Tuesday. During an interview with Turning Point USA (TPUSA) president Charlie Kirk on his radio show, Gaetz said that releasing the tapes “would give more full context to that day rather than the cherry-picked moments of the January 6th committee.” The Capitol building is monitored round-the-clock by an “extensive system of cameras” positioned both inside and outside the building as well as near other congressional offices on the grounds. The tapes could shed light on what...

Like all good political scandals, the path to the truth begins with the tapes. Tucker Carlson now has the equivalent of nearly five years of surveillance footage captured by U.S. Capitol Police security cameras on January 6, 2021. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) turned over the tapes to the Fox News host earlier this month, according to Axios. Carlson’s producers and researchers are already distilling the footage; the first round of clips is expected to air in a few weeks. While some grumble that McCarthy did not fulfill his promise to publicly release the footage—arguably a valid complaint—Carlson’s team undoubtedly...

What we are hearing from the media industrial complex is fear, not concern. Ever since Axios reported that House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) gave Fox News host Tucker Carlson unfettered access to surveillance video captured by Capitol security cameras on January 6, 2021, the corporate media has experienced a collective convulsion bordering on a nervous breakdown. Guardians of the fourth estate long ago abandoned their self-proclaimed role as watchdog over those in power in exchange for the role of lapdog. But apparently the last ones to get the joke are reporters, editors, and cable news hosts themselves, who still operate...

House speaker Kevin McCarthy is finally releasing all the official security tapes and other video evidence showing what really happened during the massive stolen election protest at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. This evidence had been commandeered and hidden by Nancy Pelosi and the Democrat party for the last two years. This material did not belong to Pelosi and the Democrats; it belongs to the American people. In fact, wannabe mob boss Nancy Pelosi and her reprehensible Democrat party had been trying to arrange, just before the new Congress came in, to have all this evidence locked away...

Kevin McCarthy has exclusively given access to the J6 tapes to Tucker Carlson and his Fox News pals. Nationally-syndicated news host Stew Peters is slamming GOP establishment Speaker Kevin McCarthy for refusing to hand more than 40,000 hours of unreleased January 6th security footage over to the American People as promised. Instead, McCarthy has exclusively given the footage, which is said to expose police brutality and federal provocateurs, to Fox News host Tucker Carlson. Kevin McCarthy is covering up the narrative-busting evidence contained in the J6 tapes, which hold more than 40,000 hours of US Capitol security footage taken on...

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) defended his decision to release tapes of the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol to Fox News host Tucker Carlson, making the case during a closed-door conference meeting on Tuesday that former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) daughter had access to the footage and the Jan. 6 committee provided clips to networks. Top Democrats in both chambers have slammed the move, arguing that providing Carlson with access poses a security risk to the Capitol and that the Jan. 6 committee worked with the Capitol Police to ensure the safety of those working within the Capitol...
