Trump Demands January 6th Prisoners Let Go, House Select Committee Prosecuted After Tucker Carlson Releases Bombshell Videos

Loading

by RUSTY WEISS

Former President Donald Trump called for the release of detainees and political prisoners from the January 6th, 2021 riot at the Capitol after bombshell new videos offer a counter-narrative to several aspects of the so-called ‘insurrection.’
 
Trump offered praise to Tucker Carlson after the Fox News host released a series of previously unseen videos which counter several claims made by the media and Democrats since that fateful day.
 
The videos show Capitol police officer Brian Sicknick appearing well and amply defended from physicality, despite claims he was murdered by the mob, as well as evidence that the ‘Qanon Shaman’ was readily escorted by police around the complex, seemingly contradicting assertions that his behavior warranted a multi-year prison sentence.
 
And there was much, much more.
 
Trump called the dramatic new evidence one of the ‘biggest scoops’ in American journalism.
 
“The New Surveillance Footage of the January 6th Events sheds an entirely different light on what actually happened,” he wrote on his Truth Social media platform. “LET THEM GO FREE, NOW!”
 

 
Trump Calls for Release of January 6th Prisoners
 
Trump also praised House Speaker Kevin McCarthy for showing “great courage” in releasing over 41,000 hours of Capitol surveillance footage from the January 6th riot so that Tucker Carlson could properly review and report on the actual findings.
 
“A whole new, and completely opposite, picture has now been indelibly painted,” he contends. “The Unselect Committee LIED, and should be prosecuted for their actions.”
 
In another posting on Truth Social, the former President reiterated his call for those charged for their relatively mundane actions that day to be released.
 
“Let the January 6 prisoners go,” he wrote in an all-caps screed. “They were convicted, or are awaiting trial, based on a giant lie, a radical left con job.
 
Trump added, “Thank you to Tucker Carlson and Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy for what you both have done. New video footage is irrefutable!”
 


 
Vows to Pardon J6 Prisoners
 
Donald Trump has long contended that, should he win re-election in 2024, he would issue pardons to many of the individuals charged and convicted for their actions during the January 6th riot.
 
Not for actual thugs who sought violence that day but rather, for those whose mere presence led to prison time.
 
Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, who spoke to the former President and First Lady Melania Trump, said the couple was “just sick” over some of the January 6 defendants and the way they’ve been pursued since the Capitol riot.
 
This past December, Trump recorded a video message aimed specifically at the J6 defendants.
 
“People have been treated unconstitutionally, in my opinion, and very, very unfairly, and we’re going to get to the bottom of it,” said Trump, speaking before the group known as Patriot Freedom Project.
 
“It’s the weaponization of the Department of Justice, and we can’t let this happen in this country.”

“A whole new, and completely opposite, picture has now been indelibly painted,” he contends. “The Unselect Committee LIED, and should be prosecuted for their actions.”

I am sick and tired of the Congresspeople putting witnesses under oath and then they themselves lying or allowing THEIR witnesses to lie with impunity. I believe that when there is testimony that requires the witnesses to be put under oath, the CONGRESSPEOPLE should be considered to be under oath as well, as strictly enforced.

Going forward, many of the defendants will have their sentences overturned and will be released. There will then follow numerous lawsuits, the settlements for which the US taxpayer, once again, will have to pay. The perpetrators of this definite act of sedition will go Scott free.

So, out of 43,000 hours Tucker gave us only about 30 minutes worth of this video.
Dems can claim he “cherry picked” those minutes.
They certainly know how to cherry pick to build a narrative.

But, instead of more and more videos nightly, Tucker’s ego got in the way and he devoted the lion’s share of his next show to how HE was treated.
I hope he gets back down to business, but won’t be surprised if he doesn’t.

03/07/23 – ‘Just a lie’: Senate Republicans blast Tucker Carlson’s Jan. 6 narrative

Senate Republicans blasted Fox News on Tuesday for airing a show that twisted details of the January 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol into a conspiracy-fueled narrative, breaking ranks with House GOP colleagues who cheered on the show.

From Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) to rank-and-file lawmakers, Republican senators largely rejected Fox personality Tucker Carlson’s vision of the deadly insurrection as a mostly peaceful protest that involved little violence.

Appearing at his weekly news conference, McConnell denounced the leadership of the conservative cable network for airing the entertainer’s vision of the assault on the Capitol, holding up a letter from U.S. Capitol Police Chief Tom Manger that accused Carlson’s show of being “filled with offensive and misleading conclusions.”

“It was a mistake, in my view, for Fox News to depict this in a way that’s completely at variance with what our chief law enforcement official here in the Capitol thinks,” McConnell told reporters.

Sen. Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.), once a vocal supporter of former president Donald Trump who has consistently denounced the attack, was blunt in his assessment of Carlson’s narrative: “To somehow put (Jan. 6) in the same category as a permitted peaceful protest is just a lie.”

The sharp criticism from his own party left House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) on the defensive following his decision last month to grant Carlson exclusive access to 41,000 hours of mostly never-before-seen video from Capitol Police security cameras that day. The speaker gave that access after Carlson, who has aired conspiracy theories related to Jan. 6 on cable’s highest-rated prime time show, publicly stated it as a condition of support during McCarthy’s marathon effort to win enough votes in early January to claim the speaker’s gavel.

When asked Tuesday if he had any regrets about allowing Carlson’s access to the footage, after Monday night’s depiction of Jan. 6, McCarthy said: “No.”

“I said from the very beginning: transparency,” he continued. “Each person [can] come up with their own conclusion.” He claimed he did not watch Carlson’s show and didn’t answer questions related to the depiction.

McCarthy has previously said he would release the video to other media outlets and that Carlson’s access was part of a media strategy to grant an “exclusive” that is simply normal practice for lawmakers.

Senate Republicans on Tuesday avoided directly criticizing McCarthy’s decision to give Carlson the access, but they said that the undeniable result was both offensive and bad politics.

“I can’t forecast what Speaker McCarthy was thinking about but if you’re going to give footage, give it to all the networks, not just one,” said Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah), who voted to convict Trump in the 2021 impeachment trial that stemmed from Jan. 6. “I think it’s a very dangerous thing to do to suggest that attacking the Capitol of the United States is in any way acceptable and is anything other than a serious crime against democracy and against our country.”

Sen. Mike Rounds (R-S.D.) agreed that a wide distribution of the video would have been better and echoed his colleagues, saying: “I was there on Jan. 6. I saw what happened. It clearly was violent. It was an insurrection.”

“I was there Jan. 6. It was not peaceful, it was an abomination,” Sen. John Neely Kennedy (R-La.), who did not watch the Carlson show, told reporters Tuesday. “And there’s no way to pretty it up.”

03/07/23 – Tucker Carlson on Trump in days before Jan 6 attack: ‘I hate him passionately’

Months after the 2020 presidential election, and two days before the January 6 attack on the US Capitol, Tucker Carlson wrote in a text message that he hated then-President Donald Trump “passionately,” according to the newly released court documents.

“We are very, very close to being able to ignore Trump most nights,” Carlson wrote on Jan 4, 2021, the filings show. “I truly can’t wait.”

“I hate him passionately,” the Fox host continued. “I blew up at Peter Navarro today in frustration. I actually like Peter. But I can’t handle much more of this.”

“That’s the last four years,” Carlson added. “We’re all pretending we’ve got a lot to show for it, because admitting what a disaster it’s been is too tough to digest. But come on. There isn’t really an upside to Trump.”

I don’t know what it takes to wake people up. The FOX-Dominion law suit exhibits are at the bottom of the page. They’re available as public records.

CNN lies

No evidence that Carlson actually texted that.

They don’t care. They are so desperate now, not even trying to hide the fact they lie on demand.

Notice there is no link in the article to the court documents?
If they were simply seeking ratings it would be an utter failure as most dont really trust cable news outlets especially those that call a state for Biden 2 minutes after the voting is closed. But dont call states he was several points ahead on, before they stopped the count late night then found only votes for Biden.
Most of our information on Dominion cheating machines came from sources that read the owners manuals of the machines. Watching clips of live coverage where vote numbers flipped.
Those were only the first clues, then evidence kept building, we found out the machines were illegally connected to the internet, missing flash drives, destruction of ballots it just kept piling up.

Indeed, what “court documents” are these? Were they leaked from a grand jury? Is there no “gag order” on this trial, or does that only apply to the conservatives?

I can remember NO ONE on Fox News involving themselves in the election fraud rhetoric. Like almost everyone else, they feared going there. Stories about Dominion’s failures were rampant and, as we now know, mostly verified

Bottom line is, based on real-life experience, you cannot trust anything that comes form the left wing Ministry of Propaganda.

No evidence that Carlson actually texted that.

No, but there is evidence that Comrade Greggie is simply trying to provide click bait for the unsuspecting and uninformed LIVs.

Why, after all the lies told by the left, is Schumer and Jeffries writing letters to the head of Fox demanding Fox either stops Carlson, Hannity and Ingram cease talking about “election fraud” or remove them from the line up? That’s an odd thing to do since the left, including Schumer and Jeffries, talked of nothing but election fraud after the 2016 election.

And Merrick Garland, the worst AG ever, said yesterday that FIVE COPS were killed on J6. No mention of the two women who were murdered by the DCPD officer.

How many letters did they write to get CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC, NYT and WaPo to stop running stories about “Russian collusion”?

It’s all about protecting the propaganda.

The emails ARE official evidence. They’re part of the 23 pages of Exhibit 151 from the Dominion lawsuit against FOX, for destroying Dominion’s reputation with stolen election lies. The emails have been entered into evidence in a trial. If they weren’t real, FOX’s lawyers would have challenged them and had them thrown out. They damn well would have challenged them, because Dominion seeks over a billion dollars in damages.

No evidence Tucker ever texted the bullshit you espouse

Jan 6 hoax wrecked.jpg

All McCarthy and Carlson have done is expose the leftist lies. Nothing else. I wonder, how many of those shown kicking in doors and smashing windows have been charged as opposed to those who did no damage, committed no violence but were charged with “trespassing” and given ridiculously harsh sentences?

With as many lies as CNN has been proven to have broadcast, why do you keep believing their propaganda? Why is there such a massive campaign to discredit the full release of the January 6th videos (showing all the lies we have been fed by Democrats) and distract from the facts?

When will YOU wake up and see how little regard the Democrats and leftist propaganda media has for your intelligence? It doesn’t appear it will ever happen.

Tell me, how did lying about Officer Sicknick being killed in the Capital help defend Democracy? How did lying about when and how Hawley left the Capital protect Democracy? How did persecuting the “Shaman” help sustain Democracy? All these lies do nothing but enhance Democrat power, which is DANGEROUS to democracy.

That literally means nothing. You don’t get to commit treason against the people of the United States and their choice for President, Donald Trump, because you pulls an outlier comment from Tucker.

You pigs are finished.

Our federal government is illegal, and has no authority. They seized power and now we know.

The “FOX hates Trump” narrative isn’t impactful.

We knew that already.

FOX = CNN.

Go look at the differences in our currrency, the 2021 quarter is fine, the 2022 quarter Washington has turned his back on “in god we trust” And “Liberty” is squashed.
Cute symbolism.

Instead of hating the fact that your false January 6th narrative was destroyed, why not look inward as to why you allow yourself to be constantly duped by the leftist Ministry of Propaganda and your lying Democrats?

Gee looks like someone knocked over your sippy cup today. You get played a lot and then can’t deal with it when exposed. You fell for Russian collusion and got played. When the train derailed in East Palestine you blamed Trump. Even after it was pointed out to you that he had nothing to do with it you still clung to the blame Trump narrative. Now, just like a good little lemming, you fully embrace the company line on J6 and hate the idea of anyone shining some more light on it.
While the some J6’ers are still in a DC jail we see this.

I could have included CBS too. They covered it about the same way. There’s a clue here for you.

The Cathedral of Lies
A cascade of falsehoods from the Ruling Class — on January 6th, Ukraine, & Inflation…STEVE CORTES

comment image

“Live Not by Lies.” In 1974, Russian dissident and intellectual Alexander Solzhenitsyn wrote an essay with that title, and was summarily exiled from the Soviet Union the very next day.
Nearly a half century later, here in the United States, the nation that accepted Solzhenitsyn now endures a previously unimaginable cascade of falsehoods promulgated brazenly by the most powerful people and institutions in the country.
The Cathedral — an appellation for the Ruling Class of government, big business, media, and academia – clearly feels the growing power of the patriotic populist movement in America. Hence, the repressive torrent of ruling class lies increases in frequency and magnitude. Consider the lies promulgated in just the last 24 hours. These lies, mind you, are grand ones, with immense consequence.

Lie One: January 6th
Tucker Carlson aired stunning video footage from the Capitol building on January 6th. The American people have waited years to witness this evidence, even though we own that building and we paid for those cameras. Thankfully, new Speaker Kevin McCarthy made good on his promises and provides this transparency as the first step toward a full release to the public.
The Carlson evidence obliterated the Permanent Washington narrative about that day. With just a sampling of clips shown so far, the truth emerges that the election sanctity rally escalated into an unruly protest, with small portions of the crowd engaging in real violence against police and public property.
But the overwhelming majority of the protestors were entirely peaceful and treated as welcome guests by authorities, even inside the Capitol.
The video footage proves, in fact, that January 6th was neither an insurrection, nor deadly, with the notable and tragic exception of MAGA supporter Ashli Babbitt. As Tucker Carlson aptly observed while showing the previously-suppressed tapes: “these were not insurrectionists, these were sightseers.”
The most glaring ruling class lie involves the so-called “Q Anon Shaman,” Jacob Chansley. He now sits in a federal prison after enduring nearly a year in pre-trial detention in solitary confinement in Washington. For what crime? “Obstructing an official proceeding” was the conviction that sealed a 41-month sentence for this military veteran. 
But the tapes released by McCarthy reveal that police inside the Capitol welcomed and escorted Chansley all around the building, even respectfully standing by as he led a group prayer of protestors. He was not treated as a threat because he wasn’t one, as the video footage makes clear. At worst, Chansley trespassed and engaged in some uncouth behavior. But an eccentric donning a costume hardly deserves a felony conviction and hard prison time.

Lie Two: US Intelligence and Ukraine
Within the Cathedral of globalism, the New York Times serves as a sort of “church bulletin” for the true believers. More broadly, American legacy media platforms overwhelmingly transform into supplicant public relations agencies for the ruling class, and especially so for the US Intelligence Community. What a contrast vs. the press of decades past that formerly approached almost any I.C. agenda with dogged skepticism?
In 2023 America, though, media mavens act as stenographers promoting the press releases of the national security apparatus, thinly disguised as legitimate reporting. Consider the just-released NY Times report: “Intelligence Suggests Pro-Ukraine Group Sabotaged Pipelines, US Officials Say.”
On its face, the premise is laughable. What rational person believes that the poor and technologically primitive country of Ukraine could somehow muster the means and expertise to stage such an advanced clandestine operation as blowing up the Nord Stream pipeline? We are to somehow believe that Kiev pulled off this incredible SEAL Team Six-like feat, hundreds of miles from Ukraine, undetected, in freezing deep Baltic waters…without the assistance and/or permission of the United States?

Lie Three: Inflation
Katie bar the door, it turns out inflation is not “transitory.” Not at all, actually.
Feckless Fed Chairman Jerome Powell appeared before the US Senate on Tuesday and tried to dial back the massive lie of the Administrative State regarding systemic and persistent inflation. Powell parroted the equally dishonest Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen in repeating the “transitory” lie for over a year as the inflation tsunami grew.

Now forced into a corner, Powell finally concedes that monetary policy will have to be much more aggressively hawkish, meaning rates must rise, and rapidly…

03/24/23 – Judge says several Trump aides, including former chief of staff, must testify to Jan. 6 grand jury

You don’t blow off a criminal Grand Jury subpoena. They can plea the Fifth, but they’ll then be granted immunity and compelled to testify. Further refusal would result in contempt findings and imprisonment.

05/04/23 – Four Proud Boys members found guilty of seditious conspiracy

…Enrique Tarrio – the Proud Boys longtime chairman – Ethan Nordean, Joseph Biggs and Zachary Rehl were found guilty Thursday of seditious conspiracy and a range of other charges, including three separate conspiracy charges, obstructing the Electoral College vote and tampering with evidence.

The guilty verdict marks the third time that prosecutors have secured convictions for seditious conspiracy in the Justice Department’s historic prosecution of those who breached the US Capitol on January 6, 2021

BREAKING: Soros-Funded St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner Resigns!

Too bad that scumbag trash couldn’t be fired and disbarred.

Amazing what imbedding FBI assets into the defense and withholding exculpatory evidence can accomplish for a prosecution, isn’t it?

Meanwhile, ANTIFA thugs who assault, burn, loot, kill are NEVER brought to justice. You just LOVES you some fascism, don’t you?

Trump is afraid to debate because he’d be questioned about January 6.

The Proud Boy’s attorney said they’re only scapegoats—that the person really responsible is Donald Trump.

“It was Donald Trump’s words, it was his motivation, it was his anger that caused what occurred on January 6 in your amazing and beautiful city,” defense attorney Nayib Hassan said. “They want to use Enrique Tarrio as a scapegoat for Donald Trump and those in power.”

Yeah, “Peacefully go and make your voices heard” is a really inciter. You are so full of hypocritical shit it’s pathetic.

But, speaking of inciting speech, when is Ray Epps going to be charged? Or, why hasn’t he already? Oh…. that’s right. He was part of the government op to create the riot and blame Trump…. which failed.

Tell it to the Proud Boys’ attorney.

Tell it to the Proud Boys’ attorney.

If he doesn’t know what  “Peacefully go and make your voices heard” means, what can I tell him? There seems to be a lot of abysmally stupid people who can’t understand basic words and sentences.

Trump won’t even debate other republicans. He knows they’ll tear him apart on national television.

Change out Trump for Biden and you may have something.

Is that why idiot Biden is always taking questions from the media? (that would unscripted questions he hasn’t been provided in advance)

A “seditious conspiracy” that had no plan to commit sedition. Only in Amerika. Or Soviet Russia. Or Nazi Germany.

It is perplexing that unarmed men would be able to overtake the capital. Especially since we know that some of the capital police are trigger happy.

Them opening fire on a peaceful crowd is what triggered the riot.

The drugs don’t even work on idiot Biden anymore. It would be impossible for him to debate anyone; hell, he can’t even take questions without having them provided in advance. And he doesn’t even bother to tell the truth or remember the lies he’s already told.

biden will never make it to a debate stage. The masters have already decided he will not run.

While Biden leads the county, fights inflation, and pushes back Putin:

While idiot Biden does NONE of that, inflation gets worse, the economy continues to tank (the last two months jobs reports have quietly been “adjusted” downward) and Russia overtakes Ukraine, thanks to idiot Biden’s stupid energy policies. Idiot Biden is the antithesis of an actual leader (see “TRUMP”).
