Included in the video is the response by the capital police and lawmakers trying to get out of there. the Captial building is built like a warren maze, in large part as additional security. one of the reasons that we didn't have any lawmakers (or pence,) get seriously hurt was because most of the insurrectionists couldn't find their way.
I really can't see much coming from this. Security relies on capital police, national guard, water cannons, rubber bullets, etc. You either have those or you don't.
*Actually more relies on FBI infiltration, informants, information tapping, etc. This is all wayyy before anything happens at the Capitol grounds.
This is 100% it, there's already so much "bad" footage out there that no one is going to change their mind about jan 6 if more comes to light. But they're hoping to find a few clips that make it look good that they can play on a loop on fox News
Right? This... seems like a good thing... I think?
Maybe the far-right Republicans, thinking that a mob of angry Trumpers can do no wrong, believe the footage will exonerate them and are wanting the footage released for that reason? (And if that's correct, they'll find out otherwise soon enough.)
The footage is already out there. These seems like an information dump under the guise of transparency. It's like when a corporation gets sued and has to release records so they send 20 million pages of documents to the plaintiff, far too much to actually wade through.
Kevin McCarthy gave 41k hours to Tucker Carlson, I assume the same stuff. So it's not that anything politically or legally interesting will come out of it, it's just going to be like the Hillary emails where conspiracy theorists trawl through and invent things, "Pizza" must be a child sex ring, I don't see what else it could possibly mean. Stuff like that.
Now release footage of DNC members submitting applications for ballots using addresses under overpasses and mysteriously upping the vote counts overnight after ballot counting had "stopped."
God I remember some of the shit being pushed online after the election like a video showing voting officials stuffing ballot boxes that turned out to be from Russian elections.
