The Democrat chairman of the crookedly partisan Jan. 6 Committee just made a very damning admission that proves they were not at all interested in facts or truth with their “investigation” into what occurred on Jan. 6 2021.
After Fox News star Tucker Carlson showed his audience video of Capitol Police officers acting like kindly tour guides — especially for Jacob “QAnon Shaman” Chansley, that goofball dressed in a buffalo hat — the world saw that most of those who were trespassing in the Capitol that day were not violent. And, worse, it shows that the Capitol Hill Police inside the House of Representatives were not afraid for their lives.
But after Tucker rolled the video, Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS), who was the January 6 Select Committee chairman, made a very telling admission.
“I’m actually not aware of any member of the committee who had access [to the footage]. We had a team of employees who kind of went through the video,” Thompson said.
Wait…. what?
You mean they really DID go into their “deliberations” with an already determined outcome, and they didn’t care at all to review the actual evidence?
Looks like it, folks.
Greene told me she doesn’t know "who all's in the room” or if US Capitol Police will be there, but said there are instructions her team has been given, including "how to view the videos, obviously, because there's so many hours.”

Thompson said he doesn’t think any of the Jan. 6 members themselves ever had access to the footage — they let only staff view it. "I'm actually not aware of any member of the committee who had access. We had a team of employees who kind of went through the video."

It is a “stunning admission,” said Mollie Hemingway:
In stunning admission, the chairman of the J6 committee now confesses he never analyzed any footage before running the made-for-TV show trial with Liz Cheney. Absolutely insane. Even worse than we thought. https://t.co/55Cnfo7HMh

No, they hired professional tv producers to shape a false story — those people “watched” it. Problem is that the committee has claimed that they had done exhaustive research. Obviously they did not. Just a fake political op

Just more evidence that the Jan 6 Committee is political fraud… just like the claims that there was an “insurrection” on Jan. 6. There never was any “insurrection.” Not planned, or accidental.
