Wow you guys, this J6 ‘stuff’ just gets worse and worse. Yesterday we reported that January 6th Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson said none of the committee members had actually viewed the footage (blamed staffers), and now we’re seeing reports about the DOJ/FBI reportedly having all of the footage soon after the protest/riot but failing to turn it over to the defense of many J6 prisoners.
It’s hard to believe that this happened (is happening) in America.
Jonathan Turley put together a short thread ...
Jonathan Turley (@JonathanTurley) ~ Fox News is reporting sources as saying that these videotapes were handed over to the FBI soon after Jan. 6th. If true, the Justice Department did have the evidence and failed to turn it over to the defense as constitutionally required.

Was it just Chansley’s defense that was not given this footage?
Or is this something that has happened to all of the prisoners?
This is so not good.
Jonathan Turley (@JonathanTurley) ~ ... So the DOJ played videotapes for the court to secure the heavy sentence against Chansley while the government allegedly withheld videotapes contradicting that account.
They used the evidence they wanted while withholding evidence from the defense.
In America.
Elevator Man (@howienudet) ~ There’s gonna be a lot of retrials, dismissals, and suits.
Certainly, hope so.
Sam Akoury (@samakoury) ~ Regardless, they have them now and Chansley's case needs to be reopened.
J3B3ST (@J3B3ST) ~ Illegality every step of the way. It’s extremely alarming.
Add all of this to what we’re seeing from the #TwitterFiles and it’s like Americans never really stood a chance one way or another. Government, media, tech ... working against everyday Americans to push one very specific, politically convenient narrative.
Scary times.
