Tucker Carlson's Revisionist History on Jan.6

Kevin McCarthy gave TC the entire 41,000 hours of the Jan. 6 riot videos. The question was 'why'? Now we know why:

Quote:

Carlson acquired the tapes as part of a push by McCarthy, R-Calif., to win the speaker’s gavel. When McCarthy was struggling to gather the votes to lead the House, Carlson used his program to list two “concessions” he could make to win over far-right Republicans. “First, release the January 6 files. Not some of the January 6 files and video — all of it,” Carlson, the most-watched host on cable news, said after McCarthy faced three failed votes. “So that the rest of us can finally know what actually happened on January 6, 2021.” In the two months since McCarthy won the gavel, he has granted both. Carlson announced in late February that McCarthy had given him exclusive access to 44,000 hours of security video from the deadly riot before he unveiled some clips of the video on his show Monday night.

TC used the tapes to re-write history. He has cherry picked parts of the videos to present the rioters as "mostly peaceful sightseers":

Quote:

“The footage does not show an insurrection or a riot in progress,” Carlson told his audience Monday. “Instead it shows police escorting people through the building, including the now-infamous ‘QAnon Shaman.’ He continued: "More than 44,000 hours of surveillance footage from in and around the Capitol have been withheld from the public, and once you see the video, you’ll understand why. Taken as a whole, the video does not support the claim that Jan. 6 was an insurrection. In fact, it demolishes that claim."

Here is TC's lie riddled show from last night. If there was ever any doubt that TC is a lying POS, this should remove it. Sadly, from the comments below the video, his followers are, and remain, idiots.
