“It almost seems like the narrative was created in advance.” — Julie Kelly
Everyone knows that the Democrats, legacy media and NeverTrumpers (surely, I repeat myself) have crafted a scripted narrative about what happened on January 6, 2021, calling it an “armed insurrection,” a “violent insurrection,” an event worse than Pearl Harbor and 9/11, and because we almost lost our precious democracy (*spit*).
No doubt there was violence, but there were less than a handful of protesters charged with carrying a handgun during the breach — hardly what you’d call an armed mob. And three of them weren’t even at the “insurrection” but arrested later. I understand the energy of the crowd, but there is no way it can be characterized as an insurrection, either armed or violent, when it was not a coordinated attack nor when the only people who died on that day were members of the crowd, at least one (and probably two) of whom were murdered by Capitol Hill Police.
I watched Tucker last night for the second part of his report on the January 6 “riot” as he reveals the pertinent video footage from nearly 44,000 hours of video that House Speaker Kevin McCarthy gave him access to. Carlson is demonstrating once again that Democrats and their lap dogs in the media are lying to us.
[On Monday] Carlson exposed falsehoods that bolster key animating aspects of January 6 including the movements of Jacob Chansley; the activity of still-uncharged agitator Ray Epps; the death of Capitol Police officer Brian Sicknick; alleged “reconnaissance tours” conducted by House Republicans the day before; the “escape” of Senator Josh Hawley (R-Mo.); and the overall deceptiveness of the January 6 Select Committee. “Taken as a whole, the video record does not support the claim that January 6 was an insurrection,” Carlson explained. “In fact, it demolishes that claim. And that’s exactly why the Democratic Party and its allies in the media prevented you from seeing it.”
Julie Kelly of American Greatness has been doing a yeoman’s job of actual journalism about the January 6 events and particularly about the persecution of what amounts to political prisoners who still languish in Gestapo Garland’s Archipelago.
American Greatness first reported Chansley’s peaceful interaction with Capitol Police officers in May 2021. Chansely spent more than 300 days in solitary confinement conditions under court-ordered pretrial detention before finally accepting an offer to plead guilty to the nonviolent offense of obstruction of an official proceeding. In announcing his sentence in November 2021, U.S. District Court Judge Royce Lamberth described Chansley, a Navy veteran with no criminal record and a history of mental disorders, as the “epitome” of January 6 and insisted his conduct was “horrific.” (Chansley was not charged with a violent crime.) He is currently serving a 41 month prison term.
There was also the lie of CHP officer Brian Sicknick who, it was first claimed, was killed when a fire extinguisher thrown by rioters hit him in the head. We’ve known that wasn’t true, but the video shown by Carlson proves it.
American Greatness has also covered the lies about what happened to Capitol Police officer Brian Sicknick, first raising doubts about the account of his death as early as February 2021. The media, Justice Department, leading Democrats, and the January 6 select committee claim Sicknick died as a result of scuffles with protesters that afternoon. But Carslon played a never-before-seen video of Sicknick walking around the inside of the building after the alleged attack where he appears to be healthy. A man from New Jersey, Julian Khater, pleaded guilty to spraying Sicknick with pepper spray after spending 18 months in the D.C. Gulag. He was sentenced to six years in prison.
The shoddy nature of these narratives constructed to score political points against Republicans and give the DOJ cause to ruin the lives of people with whom the current administration disagrees was exposed as soon as Officer Brian Sicknick’s death was ruled to be natural causes. This came months after the media smeared the protestors for killing this man. It was the first domino to fall and a major clue that everything that had been reported by liberal outlets about January 6 was wrong. Months later, that suspicion has been confirmed.
If these lies and propaganda efforts were conducted in some communist nation like Russia or Venezuela, we’d shake our heads and think “how terrible.” This kind of cheap political hit job is now being done here in our country, formerly known as the United States of America. I’m not sure what we are now, but we’re approximating a third-world dictatorship where truth is suppressed and political enemies are destroyed with propaganda and kangaroo courts.
The worst of it is that none of these Marxist liars, including Nancy Pelosi, Adam Schiff, Chuck Schumer and turncoats Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger, will ever be punished for their subversion. It’s a Uniparty, with the exception of a few. Even Mitch McConnell, the Republican Senate Minority Leader, calls January 6 a violent insurrection (linked above).
We’re not about to go over a cliff. The cliff is behind us and we’re dropping into the abyss. Unless something radical happens, I am not optimistic about our near future.
