Deconstructing the Jan. 6 committee lies

DAVID MARCUS: The $3M, two-year January 6th committee was destroyed by a single devastating cable news segment - because the left was never interested in truth. They just wanted revenge

How fitting that such an extravagant outlay of government resources would be thrown on the trash heap by a single cable news segment.

On Monday night, Fox News' Tucker Carlson played never-before-seen footage of the Capitol riot. The closed-circuit security tape appears to show the notorious, so-called QAnon Shaman (a.k.a. Jacob Chansley) being led through the halls of Congress by police.


The video has no audio, so we can't hear what the police told Chansley. But we can see with our own eyes - Chansley didn't overpower anyone.

In fact, it looks like Capitol Police willingly guided him, shirtless and adorned in horns, into the Senate chamber for his infamous photo-op.

So, for all the effort and expense poured into the January 6th committee, why is America only seeing this footage now?

The answer is obvious. It didn't fit the Democrats' narrative, so it was left out.

Democrats, aided by two virulently anti-Trump Republicans, sought to portray January 6th as an insurrection – inspired, led, and directed by Donald Trump.

They recruited a former top news executive to build the drama. Democrat-allied media compelled millions of Americans to watch. And it all cost the U.S. taxpayer more than $3.3 million dollars. 

But it was easily undermined because it was all so obviously, blatantly disingenuous.
