Thanks to Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) and Fox News�s Tucker
Carlson, the record regarding the January 6 Capitol Hill riot has officially
changed.

Those who have paid attention to the story have argued that the narrative put
forth by the House of Representatives January 6 Committee and their allies in
Legacy Media has been largely bogus from the get-go. Now, those skeptics have
video footage that appears to back up their claims thanks to Carlson.

As a result, the American public � and future generations � are one step
closer to having a full look at all the available evidence and drawing their
own conclusions as to what really happened that day.

As speaker of the house, McCarthy chose to give Carlson more than 40,000
hours of Capitol security footage. It was within his complete authority to do
so. Leftist critics warned that doing so would endanger the Republic itself.
Some members of the press suddenly woke up and demanded that they too be
given access to the footage, but many fretted about conspiracy theories.

On the first night of its airing, we found several key differences from what
Congress depicted for the past two years, according to the Fox News host.

Contrary to the official story, the video evidence allegedly shows that Q-
Anon Shaman was led around the building by police and could have been
arrested at any moment � he wasn�t rampaging through like some madman. We
know for a fact that Congressman Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) did not give a tour
around the capitol on January 5 to rioters as alleged. And, Senator Josh
Hawley (R-MO) was not the only senator to run away from the mob, he was just
captured doing it alone on security footage.

These claims have been discussed for more than 24 months now, but it has been
just chatter � not necessarily video content. To paraphrase a quote from
investigative journalist James O�Keefe, �Content is king. Everything else is
just gossip.�

It seems much of that gossip could be confirmed on security footage with more
to come. Here�s his first segment:

Until more information is released that debunks Carlson�s claims, there is no
reason to doubt most of his version of the story thus far. Carlson�s record
is certainly more trustworthy than the J6 Committee or any of the lapdog
journalists who have reported on that day.

Because the inaccuracies of the government are now exposed, their entire
version of the story � which was put forth as entirely factual � must be
called into question by those who have bought it at face value.

Don�t take this author�s word for it, listen to Representative Thomas Massie
(R-KY). He told Carlson that the clips shown have altered his own
�perception� of what happened � and he was there:

61% polled believe Feds helped incite J6 protests, and we all know
they were there. We need a complete catalog of the Feds present on
Jan 6th so we can see what they were taped doing.@TuckerCarlson

Of course, more transparency is still needed. Carlson�s opinion and
conclusion based on the facts may not necessarily be the exact truth of what
happened either.

Ideally, all videos should be released so that we can get to the broader
picture of the truth. If you care about sharing accurate information and
trusting your fellow man, you should want that.

Yet it doesn�t seem like many journalists do want that at all.

In many cases, mainstream media has been more than happy to regurgitate the
official J6 narrative rather than dig for answers.

Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) could have given this footage
to NBC, ABC, or CBS. She did not. It doesn�t seem as if they cared.

Now, many of those outlets are carrying water for the powers that be by
accusing Carlson of being a propagandist.

NBC News ran a story, �Tucker Carlson, with video provided by Speaker
McCarthy, falsely depicts Jan. 6 riot as a peaceful gathering.� ABC News
couched the story as �Capitol Police chief slams Carlson�s comments about
Jan. 6 video as �offensive and misleading� in internal memo.� At the time of
this writing, CBS.com�s lead story was about Republicans who disagree with
Carlson�s characterization.

It seems no other legacy media outlet is asking why Congress �misled� the
American public � as Twitter CEO Elon Musk characterized it � on this matter
for more than two years. Their lack of curiosity can only be described as
negligence and malfeasance.

There is an old quote that �Journalism is the first draft of history.�

In recent years, journalists have been content with letting the government �
particularly when aligned with the Democratic agenda � have the first crack
at a record and letting it stand with very few edits.

Now, because of Carlson and McCarthy, it�s time to rip up that draft and
start fresh. When future generations look back, they won�t have to rely
purely on left-wing sources or the government narrative.

They can point to Carlson�s coverage, and hopefully, the primary footage
themselves should it be released. History has changed.
