Washington, DC) Judicial Watch announced today that it filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Defense and U.S. Department of Justice for records related to the housing of U.S. Capitol Police Lieutenant Michael Byrd at Joint Base Andrews after he shot and killed U.S. Air Force veteran Ashli Babbitt inside the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021 (Judicial Watch v U.S. Department of Defense and U.S. Department of Justice (No. 1:22-cv-02948)). Judicial Watch has received information that Byrd was housed at Andrews in the immediate period after he killed Babbitt.

In its complaint, Judicial Watch explained to the court that it had asked all three government agencies for all records relating to the billeting of Byrd at Joint Base Andrews during the period from January 6, 2021, to July 2022, including authorization papers, housing, meals, transportation, and visitor logs.

Fitton's organization must be digging at something the government doesn't want coming to light.
Its like Hunter Biden being put up in fancy Malibu digs, or Ray Epps' driving around in his golf cart on his ranch.
Maybe Nancy had something to do with this.
OMG!
Protection of an assassin….
Byrd should have went up on a murder one count not receive an award.
1.Murder at point blank range
2.Filmed and witnesses
3.She was unarmed
“I think I was a hero”
It seems certain capitol hill cops went into 1/6 ready to bag them a racist, having been told by their leadership a gang of Trump “white extremists” were planning to attack the capitol.
He may need to wait until the next life, but surely Byrd will get what he deserves.
Who knows—this schlub may have been Nancy’s designated hitman, deliberately activated that day to do her wetwork for her.
The bullet he shot could easily have gone on to hit one of the Capitol Police officers on the other side of the set of doors from him (the set of doors, meaning, the doors that included the door through which Ashli Babbitt was naively trying to climb when she was shot dead).
Yet the Capitol Police officer near where Ashli fell back and collapsed, the one most at risk of being hit by the bullet that hit Ashli, did not react in any recognizably tactically logical way to the fact that a weapon was just fired in his general direction and that the bullet nearly hit him.
Why is that?
Were the Capitol Police in on the “hit job”?
Did the Capitol Police know in advance that that day’s events needed to or was likely to include an individual (Ashli) that would be identified, targeted, isolated, and plucked from among the protestors for ruthless killing like a sacrificial lamb, and then, subsequently, demonized?
All this, and her killer is protected and made to look like a hero/saint.
The Brits may have been onto something when their fife and drum band impudently played “The World Turned Upside Down” as they and the other surrendering troops were filing out of their fortifications at Yorktown and laying down their arms.
That video has it all.
The gun wasn’t pointed at her when it went off.
Darned if it doesn’t now look like a staged shooting, complete with a gun loaded with blanks.
Confirmed (supposedly) buried at sea.

Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.
It appears that the “shooter” pulls the gun to his left before pulling the trigger. I think he might have been scared he was lied to and the rounds were real. So he aimed to his left just in case.
This is messed up.
The following was posted to Ashli’s find-a-grave webpage:

Ashli was a fourteen-year United States Air Force veteran. She lost her life during the January 6, 2021 riot at the US Capitol in Washington, DC. May she rest in eternal peace.

The people close to Ms. Babbitt have all responded with shock. Her husband, Aaron Babbitt, 39, told a Fox affiliate in San Diego that he had sent his wife a message about 30 minutes before the shooting, and she never responded.
Her brother, Roger Witthoeft, 32, said Ms. Babbitt had not told her family that she was planning to go to Washington. But he was not surprised that she would protest.
“My sister was 35 and served 14 years — to me that’s the majority of your conscious adult life,” said Mr. Witthoeft, of Lakeside, Calif. “If you feel like you gave the majority of your life to your country and you’re not being listened to, that is a hard pill to swallow. That’s why she was upset.”
Ms. Babbitt, who had four younger brothers, was raised in a mostly apolitical household, Mr. Witthoeft said. Their father worked in commercial flooring and their mother in a school program. Ms. Babbitt enlisted in the Air Force after finishing high school.
Jan. 8, 2021
While on active duty from 2004 to 2008, she met and married her first husband, Timothy McEntee. She worked as an enlisted security forces controller, a job whose duties include guarding gates at Air Force bases, and was deployed to Afghanistan and Iraq.
She then served in the Air Force Reserves and the Air National Guard. In the Guard, she was assigned to a unit based near Washington that is known as the “Capital Guardians,” because one of their primary missions is defending the city. Security forces in the squadron regularly train with riot shields and clubs for what the Air Force calls “civil disturbance missions.” She was deployed twice more, to the United Arab Emirates in 2012 and 2014, according to an Air Force spokeswoman.
Ms. Babbitt left the military as a relatively low-ranking senior airman in 2016, several years before she would have become eligible for a pension and other benefits.
e, working in security at Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Plant in Maryland. She was employed there from 2015 to 2017, according to a representative for Exelon, the energy company that runs the plant.
It was there that she met Mr. Babbitt, who had been employed at the facility since 2007 and left in 2017, the representative said. The two moved back to her native California. She filed for divorce from Mr. McEntee in 2018.
Ms. Babbitt relocated to California, where she helped purchase Fowlers Pool Service and Supply, a company where her brother, Mr. Witthoeft, said he had worked.
“We all worked together as a family — my other little brother, me, her husband, me, my uncle,” Mr. Witthoeft said. “It was kind of nice, a family affair.”
Ms. Babbitt appeared to struggle in business. In 2017 she took out a costly short-term business loan. In effect, it meant her pool business would have to pay an interest rate that she later calculated in court filings to be 169 percent.
Within days of signing the loan agreement, she stopped making payments, only repaying about $3,400 of the $65,000 borrowed from the lender, EBF Partners, records show. The lender soon sued her.
Ms. Babbitt’s politics were emphatically pro-Trump. On the door of the pool-supply company, a poster declares it to be a “mask free autonomous zone, better known as America,” where “we shake hands like men, fist bump like homies.”

Leaving the military had freed her to participate in politics, something she savored, her brother said.
“That was one of her things — for the first time in her life, she could actually say what she wanted to say, and didn’t have to bottle it up,” he said. She was frustrated, he said, with the number of homeless people in San Diego, and the difficulty of running a small business.
“My sister was a normal Californian,” he said. “The issues she was mad about were the things all of us are mad about.”
Her brother said she was passionate about Mr. Trump’s cause, and believed she was standing up for the American people.
“I know it mattered to her a lot at the end of her life,” he said. “It mattered so much that she died for it.”
Gravesite Details
Ashes in Pacific ocean, rest in peace Ashli
You’re probably right.
He screwed up. It’s right there on the video. He shot nobody. That’s why the Capitol Police officer on the other side of the door reacted with not one ounce of concern or panic initially, then, when he realized that he needed to at least make some kind of show of it, he pulled a kind of “Charlie’s Angels” turn to the side with a rifle point” (politely asking another one of the crisis actors to move to one side).
Thanks. I hadn’t read that. More weird details to add to the story.
Do you think Ashli’s out there somewhere with the sand between her toes, sipping a drink with a paper umbrella sticking out of it, a well-compensated faux-exile?
Did anyone in her family see her body after she died?
We’re supposed to light candles for her today.
