J6 footage vindicates J6 protestors
Although I am not a fan of new US House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, and I view his semi-release of the hidden 42,000 HOURS of January 6th video footage to just one opinion maker (Tucker Carlson) with skepticism, what little bit of this footage is beginning to drip out into the public domain already vindicates the January 6th protestors around the US Capitol on January 6th, 2021.
The day after the protest, I wrote about my January 6th experience in front of the US Capitol here, and over two years and an FBI interview later, my strongest, clearest recollections remain thus: The uniformed police rained an immense and unceasing barrage of physical and chemical assaults down upon the peaceful and lawful protestors standing out in front of the Capitol.
When I was asked 18 months later if I saw any violence or property destruction in front of the Capitol, I responded “By whom?”
Because yes, I witnessed and personally experienced a tremendous amount of violence… by police against American citizens engaging in the most basic of our Constitutional rights of peaceable assembly to petition our government for redress of our grievances. I well recall standing huddled with friends, well behind the barricades that separated the legal protest from the no-go area, shocked by the police brutality, each of us asking one another “Are you seeing what I am seeing? Is this really happening?”
Despite being far away from the barricades, I was repeatedly shot with rubber bullets and gassed or bombed with pepper spray. So were my friends standing with me. We did nothing wrong. We should not have experienced this treatment, and neither should the protestors standing at the barricades.
Now that Republicans control the US House, approximately 42,000 HOURS of police badgecam and vestcam video footage, CCTV footage, and related videos are being released to the American public. This footage had been hidden away by Nancy Pelosi in order to both create a false narrative of what happened on January 6th, 2021, and to prevent access to video evidence that runs contrary to the fake narrative Pelosi and the mainstream media have pushed since January 7th 2021. These videos include audio, and police officers can be heard gloating over how much illegal use of force they had engaged in, how much lawlessness they had turned against the protestors, how they enjoyed using blunt force weapons against helpless Americans who were physically swept up and away in a tide of angry humanity and who found themselves in places they never intended to go.
And that is the takeaway from the newly released videos. American citizens who are aggrieved about a blatantly stolen 2020 election are going to become enraged when subjected to even more illegal official mistreatment.
I do not condone what happened in the US Capitol, but I also know that angry people do angry things. I also know that a great number of the people who were actually inside the US Capitol on January 6th, 2021, were ANTIFA and US federal employees dressed as Trump supporters. There is already a ton of evidence of this at news outlets like The Gateway Pundit and The Epoch Times.
I hope America has some version of a Truth and Reconciliation Commission after this video footage comes out. Americans are going to see January 6th as it really happened, not as one side lied about how it happened and then hid away evidence to the contrary.
UPDATE: More J6 video footage showing uniformed police ushering well behaved protesters into the US Capitol.
Rebel News, heroes of the World Economic Forum
Nature abhors a vacuum, and when it is healthy the natural world is designed to quickly fill up vacated or otherwise empty space so that other life may flourish.
Such is the gigantic accurate information void left on Planet Earth by the missing-in-action disinformation narrative spewing lying mainstream brown-nosing legacy media (NPR, BBC, CBS, MSNBC, PBS, NYT, WaPo etc), that a tiny little news reporting outfit called Rebel News has very quickly occupied it, clinging on for dear life most of the time. And I mean tiny, like maybe a dozen really intrepid and brave reporters placed strategically around the world. Sheila Gunn and David Menzies in Canada, Avi Yemini in Australia and New Zealand, a few young people in Canada whose names I regretfully forget right now, and of course the Rebel News boss and founder, Ezra Levant, who is everywhere all at once.
Yes, Breitbart will provide news reporting from their perspective, and so will The Gateway Pundit, where one of the Hoft brothers may end up reporting from the ground. Other non-establishment news sites like Zero Hedge and Conservative Tree House kind of report and also do enough digging to add a fuller and more accurate (truthful) understanding to some complete lie put out by the Associated Press. But only Rebel News has old fashioned news reporters scurrying around, asking Very Important People crucial questions about their actions, their thinking, their policy goals for the rest of us.
Well do I recall encountering Rebel News two years ago. Ezra Levant and David Menzies were covering the covid1984 lockdown tyrannies in Montreal, Ottawa, British Columbia, and other Canadian cities and provinces. Rebel News reporters closely covered (like right there in the thick of the physical altercations and police violence) the official abuse and repeated false but violent arrests of peaceful Pastor Artur Pawlowski, while the mainstream media liars stood outside the churches and dutifully reported the official state narrative about how Pastor Artur’s free speech and free religious practices were such a great “threat to democracy.”
They also covered the Canadian truckers’ convoy protest.
In Australia, Rebel News reporter Avi Yemini repeatedly took to the streets of Melbourne and Sydney and other Down Under cities to report live from peaceful anti-lockdown protests. Not only did Avi Yemini document the citizen protests and the incredible, overwhelming, and illegal police brutality against the citizens, he himself was violently arrested a bunch of times, for doing nothing more than holding a microphone and asking basic questions about lockdown policy and the illegality of unwarranted, unjustified police brutality.
Avi Yemini kept coming right back to the fore, at Australian protests large and small, over and over again, to do what news reporters used to do. And the incredible thing about it is, Avi Yemini WAS ALL ALONE from the news media. He and he alone was reporting just the facts from the ground, shining a bright light on wild tyranny, while establishment media staff stood around and lied over and over again, repeating a false narrative about covid1984 and lockdowns and masks and so-called covid vaccines to support and protect their political masters and keep them in power.
Doggedly, Avi Yemini kept crowd-funding to pay his own ridiculous fines for engaging in free speech, and also to help pay the fines of other people, like mothers with kids in public parks, who had been violently attacked by Australian police and thrown in jail. For playing with their children in public parks. Each of these unbelievable antidemocratic acts was a news item, and in each one, Avi and Rebel News helped fundraise to cover the victims’ legal and court costs.
Where the mainstream media reported each night about the violent police and the violated citizens as if “they deserved it,” Rebel News kept asking the police, the citizens, the protestors, and the officials just how did any of this anti-democratic behavior make any sense. In person, real time, at the actual site of the arrests and police boot stomping and horse trampling of little elderly grandmas.
Yemini’s last big result was exposing New Zealand’s communist-fascist Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern for the control freak liar she was. She resigned last week, after Rebel News’ expose.
In the end Avi Yemini and Rebel News prevailed, both in Australian and Canadian courts of law, and in the court of public opinion world-wide. They have been the David to the mainstream media-government industrial complex’s Goliath.
This past week, while the mainstream media organizations were paid invitees at the WEF, Rebel News was the only visible news organization at Davos, Switzerland, where the very mis-named World Economic Forum was held by a bunch of control freak billionaires and their sycophantic groupies. Led of course by the skinhead supervillain Nazi (no, I am not making this up) Klaus Schwab, whose plans for all humans of the world is that we all will “own nothing and be happy.”
Oh, but Klaus Schwab and his billionaire buddies will own everything, and they will be much, much happier than the rest of us.
Yes, the WEF is a full-on assault by elites against representative democracy and government led by The People. It is exactly the kind of organization that should be questioned and probed. If only the news media would do its job. Thankfully, Rebel News was there (so were a bunch of elected Republicans as well as the FBI director Chris Wray).
I just sent Rebel News a small donation, because they are heroes. They and they alone in the entire media enterprise are holding truth to power, and asking real questions of super powerful people on behalf of The People.
What was their budget for their presence at Davos this entire past week? A whopping (sarcasm) $22,000 for about ten staff. Judging by the colossal luxury offices opened at Davos by MSNBC, CNN, and illegal “stakeholder capitalism” investors like BlackRock, their own representatives there must cost $22,000 each per day. At least.
The one moment Rebel News really gained attention was where Ezra Levant and Avi Yemini doggedly pursued Pfizer CEO Bourla and peppered him with the correct hard-hitting questions about his so-called vaccine’s effectiveness and all of the damage it has done to otherwise healthy people around the world, even while he Bourla personally raked in hundreds of millions of dollars. If you only ever watch one video of Rebel News in action, you have to watch this brief video.
Look at Rebel News’ budget for their entire week at the WEF. Just $22,000. These guys punch WAY above their weight class, and they deserve a small donation from you
Pfizer’s super sketchy CEO Bourla looking askance at the pesky news reporters asking him real questions about his failed but expensive covid1984 vaccine. Not one other news outlet anywhere on our planet ever asked Bourla any questions, other than to rely on his answers as supposed non self interested recommendations for official government policy.
Fake News John Micek leaves fake news “Patriot News” to create more Fake News
He is no “journalist.” Media fraud John Micek leaves political cover of old Patriot News, becomes publicly visible political propagandist
Patriot News devotes 45% of its editorial page to a Vogue-worthy celebrity photo of anti-American US Rep. Nancy Pelosi. And the media wonders why regular Americans have lost faith in the legacy media
Ever since fake news purveyor John Micek arrived at the Patriot News (now pennlive.com) about eight years ago (he had some role there before taking on the editorial page), the paper went from liberal-lean to all-out 24/7 partisan propaganda. The opinion page that Micek ran became a seething cauldron of popular notions of political correctness. Micek’s opinion page became an Exhibit A of how the establishment legacy media maintains a constant saturating Blitzkrieg barrage of intellectual garbage on trusting, good-natured Americans, long used to sitting down to read “the paper” after a day’s work.
Micek made national news several years ago by peremptorily banning all anti-gay-marriage opinions from being published on the Patriot News opinion page. When Micek appeared on national television shows where he was simply questioned about his censorious practices and intellectual dishonesty, he became a deer in the headlights. He literally could not find the words to articulate a why to his censorship. Not in a professional way. The guy was exposed as a puppet master, not a man of letters, as would be expected of a “highly educated, highly experienced media expert.” Media experts like Micek have been trained as Fascist mini Stalins, not as thinkers.
My own exposure to Micek was what free-thinkers have come to expect from official media censors across the nation in recent years. I have submitted pro-Constitution opinion pieces to the Patriot News, where Micek would eventually get around to accepting them. Weeks after the issue had left the headlines. But Micek wouldn’t just delay them, he would edit out the strongest parts of my op-eds, then post the essays digitally for about 15 minutes, and then pull them off of the pennlive.com editorial page. So he could truthfully say that he had technically published the letters, but unless a reader went searching for them using the search function on the website, they would not be visible as one scrolled down through past posts. It was a sleight-of-hand trick.
So let’s be honest about Micek: He is completely dishonest. As an editor, anyhow. Not that an honest, objective reader would be surprised at this. After all, Micek has done his misdeeds up front and in public view, where he has long misrepresented himself as a “journalist,” and therefore as a fair-minded arbiter of fact and truth, when he is so obviously the opposite.
Now John Micek has left pennlive.com to join another up-front fake news start-up. There, he will be able to more freely purvey his anti-America PC garbage and nonsense; his censorious ways will become de facto “the norm” for official media discussions. Micek is doing this to even further control the political and social narrative, to limit and shape the information and language available to curious people, and thereby, he hopes, to artificially control and shape the way Americans think about public policy issues.
John Micek embodies pretty much everything honest, patriotic Americans despise about liberals. He is a weak-kneed manipulative weasel with a feminized pseudo-intellectual affectation who hates America as it was founded, but who nonetheless enjoys and relies upon the Constitutional rights he is trying to destroy for everyone else.
If bowties were at all “in” today, Micek would festoon his entire body in them. Mister Peabody Knowitall Do-Good has now gone on to do more bad things, more often, more publicly. This move is about the most honest thing he has ever done in his career, as the cat is finally out of the bag and he is openly admitting he has been a fake news propagandist the entire time.
Congratulations, John.
