Pelosi knows why Jan 6 riot happened, why won’t she tell us?
By: Robert Jonathan
Tucker is absolutely 100% correct in every point made last night. I stand with most conservatives with him in full regarding every aspect of Jan. 6 issues and other examples of federal abuses of power. Well said Ticker Carlson. Nancy Pelosi’s committee is a fraudulent sham.

Tucker: Pelosi knows why Jan 6 riot happened, why won’t she tell us?

He earned a Juris Doctorate from the University of Connecticut School of Law, “a law school the basketball teams can be proud of.”
Instead of launching a committee for the purposes of political theater, U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) herself could shed a lot of light on what happened at the Capitol on January 6. Instead, the investigation will resemble “MSNBC with subpoena power.”
That is how Tucker Carlson assessed the situation in another powerful editorial delivered on Wednesday evening on his eponymous Fox News show.
Pelosi could save the committee, if not the entire Congress and America itself, a lot of time by answering a few basic questions, Carlson said. These include the following:
-
Why did the House sergeant-at-arms, a Pelosi subordinate, allegedly deny the Capitol police chief’s repeated requests for National Guard backup when everyone knew a huge protest was coming?
-
Why are authorities sitting on many hours of surveillance video?
-
Who killed U.S. Air Force veteran Ashli Babbitt?
-
What role, if any, did FBI informants or operatives play on January 6?
“January 6 is one of the most discussed events in modern American history, and yet more than six months later, we still don’t know why that happened. No one has explained it. Nancy Pelosi knows why it happened. She could tell us why it happened if she felt like it…and yet repeatedly, Pelosi has worked to stop any inquiry whatsoever into the state of security at the Capitol on January 6,” the host of Tucker Carlson Tonight asserted about the San Francisco Democrat.
“And yet, it turns out that Nancy Pelosi has no intention of revealing everything she knows about January 6th, so she has turned that committee into yet another instrument of cover-up,” Tucker Carlson declared in the monologue embedded below in two parts.
Highlighting Pelosi’s rejection of U.S. Reps. Jim Jordan and Jim Banks, both Electoral College certification challengers, for the investigative committee, which caused House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy to pull the plug on GOP participation altogether, Carlson claimed that was a way to preempt uncomfortable questions.
“Those two specifically seem most likely to ask questions about January 6 that Pelosi did not want to discuss. They pushed for openness, so she booted them…
“So, if you want to know why officials who report directly to Nancy Pelosi repeatedly turned down security at the Capitol on January 6th even after protesters were inside the doors of the Capitol, if you want to know what the hell that’s about, you’re un-American. You’re a traitor. You hate the country,” he said sarcastically.
“In fact, you may be a white supremacist insurrectionist yourself, so be careful. That’s the official position of congressional Democrats tonight. Remember when they told us that they would unite the country if they ever took power? It looks like they didn’t mean it.”
“It turns out there is still an awful lot of things we don’t know about January 6th despite all the talking about it. For example, why is the Justice Department still tonight hiding thousands of hours of surveillance footage from the Capitol that day? What could possibly be on that tape that we’re not allowed to see?,” the FNC host asked rhetorically.
Insofar as the Ashli Babbitt case is concerned, Carlson suggested that “government agents get to shoot unarmed political protesters in the neck for trespassing and we’re not allowed to know who did it or why? Is that really the new standard? Does that same standard apply to BLM protesters, too, or just to people who voted for Donald Trump, people whose lives clearly don’t matter?”
Apparently alluding to the Whitmer alleged kidnapping plot , Carlson insisted that it is known that the FBI stages crimes, “So, what exactly was the FBI’s role in January 6? And why can’t we know?”
Given the chance, the GOP could pose some of these pertinent questions. Instead, the committee will likely devolve into a politicized method for blaming ordinary, peaceful, law-abiding, conservative-leaning Americans — who had nothing to do with the lawbreakers at the Capitol — for what happened, Tucker Carlson implied.
“None of these are trick questions; they’re not even partisan questions. They’re entirely fair questions, and they’re important. Every American has a right to hear the answers and hear them immediately.
“January 6 is being used as a pretext to strip millions of disfavored Americans of their core constitutional rights. We are witnessing the most aggressive crackdown on civil liberties in our lifetime. That is not an exaggeration. Yet thanks to Nancy Pelosi, the January 6 committee will now operate the way she would like America to operate, as a one-party state.”
U.S. Rep. Liz Cheney, the anti-Trump GOP neocon, wants to opportunistically stay on the committee because she knows her political career in elective office is over, Carlson claimed.
“Well, like her friend Bill Kristol before her, Liz Cheney has a next chapter planned. She’ll find some billionaire to fund her push for pointless foreign wars. That’s the one thing she believes in.”

January 6th must be investigated to stop gop lies!

What nonsense !
Carlson insisted that it is known that the FBI stages crimes, “So, what exactly was the FBI’s role in January 6? And why can’t we know?”
Carlson is losing what's left of his little twisted mind.
She doesn't have to tell us something that we already know. The riot happened due to Trump, Rudy, and the [deleted]. Trump told them to go there and Rudy advocated using force once there. The [deleted] were following their instructions.
What SG???? They were in fact Trumptards.
Well, they were republicans. It was 100% the gop that were the violent insurgents. No Democrats have been arrested for the violent crimes of Trump's Insurgency in DC on January 6th. No ANTIFA! No BLM! Not even one Democrat...
No sweeping generalization. Those are facts!
Yet not even one of them was involved in violent crimes associated with Trump's attempted overthrow of the results of our election...
The political right in thrall to Trump wont be happy until America is destroyed. I wouldnt rule it out anymore either.
This article, and the premise behind the article, are the height of fraudulent misrepresentation, but it's no surprise to anyone that Trumpist-Fascists constantly lie and distort the truth.
Goebbels would be extremely proud of his Trumpist successors.
The anti-American propaganda now being churned out by the far rightwing would make Axis Annie and Tokyo Rose blush...
We know what happened the question is how and why. How did a bunch of unarmed Yayhoos manage to penetrate the Seat of Government in the USA. It seems my old junior high school had better security than the Capitol Building. I have a hard time believing that the Capitol Building is less secure than a US Embassy, less secure than a shopping mall on black friday. Either the breach was allowed as political theater for propaganda purposes or Security is so lax as to be a joke. If Security is really that bad imagine what 40 heavily armed terrorists could have accomplished. If Security is really that lax every member of the House and Senate would be screaming about the vulnerability since they would be in jeopardy every day because of it. When are they going to investigate these security failures ? I wonder how History will look back at this after the fog of political hatred has cleared ?
It may be worse than that. Imagine if the FBI knew about it in advance?
One question I wanted asked is why everything wasn't shut down when a pipe bomb was found early on?
I doubt there will be any real questions.
