Kevin McCarthy gives Tucker Carlson access to all Jan 6 footage. Chuck Schumer and Mitch McConnell Big Mad!

You looked at the two images and your analysis was: "The police were outnumbered that day".

So yeah, I am trying to figure out how you perceive reality lol.

I would hope you aren't looking at two pictures and believing you know what went on that day. There was no way cops would be able to leave their post to arrest someone, and no way they could leave the building to do so if they wanted.

You've both been quite literally fact checked,

Explaining the Missing Context of Tucker Carlson's Jan. 6 Presentation - FactCheck.org

Claim: “The tapes show the Capitol Police never stopped Jacob Chansley. They helped him. They acted as his tour guides.”

Facts: This is false. Chansley, also known as the “QAnon Shaman,” who was sentenced to 41 months in prison for obstructing an official proceeding on Jan. 6, 2021, signed a plea agreement acknowledging that he entered the Capitol through a door broken by other rioters and that he ignored Capitol Police officers who asked him to exit the building multiple times.

But Capitol Police Chief Thomas Manger disputed Carlson’s description of the events in a staff memo issued the day after Carlson’s show aired. Manger said officers tried to resolve the situation without violence.

“One false allegation is that our officers helped the rioters and acted as ‘tour guides.’ This is outrageous and false,” Manger wrote. “This Department stands by the officers in the video that was shown last night. I don’t have to remind you how outnumbered our officers were on January 6. Those officers did their best to use de-escalation tactics to try to talk rioters into getting each other to leave the building.”

One of the officers seen walking with Chansley, Capitol Police Officer Keith Robishaw, who has red hair and was wearing glasses and a light blue face mask, explained his thinking in the 2021 HBO documentary “Four Hours at the Capitol.”

In one of his first encounters with a group of rowdy protesters, including Chansley, who was armed with a spear affixed with an American flag, Robishaw said he knew he and his fellow officers had to try to get them to leave peacefully.

“We were standing on that line, and there was the six of us. Meeting violence with violence at this time would not be safe for me and my fellow officers,” Robishaw said about 36 minutes into the film. “The sheer number of them compared to us, I knew in my head there was no way that we could all get physical with them, so I took it upon myself to try and talk to them.”

“No attacking, no assault, remain calm,” Robishaw told the men.

There isn't much to debate. Tucker tricked you both and now you just won't accept it.

No matter how many times you post Tucker's selected videos, facts are facts. We know what happened as per court documents, videos not played by Tucker, and police statements. This is useless. The issue is over and settled as per reality.

This thread is a huge L.

I don't know all that "went on that day". My claim is so simple I don't have to. It's obvious that the cops could have handcuffed Chansley in either of those two situations if they really wanted to. They didn't have to leave their posts, he was right next to them...

You just don't want to give an inch, which in a way I respect 🙂. But I think you read in way too much in what I was saying.

I suspect that it may be because you think I am a Trump supporter, which I'm not. I treat every question independently. Me thinking that Chansley should not get four years (from what I have seen) does not imply anything about my other views.

No, you do know all that went on that day. It explains what was and wasn't done.

I don't care if you're a trump supporter or not. Chansley PLED GUILTY.

Lol you are a bit silly now. Don't you have eyes and a brain of your own? The question was if the cops had the oportunity to arrest Chansley in either of those two situations. There is no need to copy-paste some long text.

If I ask you "how much is a sandwhich these days", will you quote some study from the WTO?

Do you?

Yes. I saw videos of all of the things these two fact checkers mention, who say you are wrong. Videos which show you are unequivocally wrong and that the Shaman's trial and verdict were 100% legitimate, containing zero falsehoods. I seem to have eyes and brains of my own that also saw videos Tucker didn't include.

Yes. In this hypothetical of yours my peer reviewed study will literally tell you the price of sandwiches.

Which you would oddly deny in subsequent posts because of a (objectively proven by two court cases) a Fake News host giving you sandwich prices from a different country from a decade ago.

My fact check link literally tells you why.....straight from the Capitol Police....

Refute it with citation.

Ahh...pleading ignorance to facts that refute your PROVEN fictional assertions.

It's too late.

McCarthy and Tucker got to him. He's just a drone now who thinks fiction is reality.

This is what Republicans, Democrats, and I were worried about.

You'll get no disagreement from me there.

But it makes me wonder.....if you are for investigating these police officers for escorting these individuals into the chamber, then on what basis are you pushing for the exoneration of Chansley? You can't have it both ways. Seems to me, if you believe the officers were derelict in their responsibilities to the point they should be investigated, that is a further indictment of Chansley's actions that were allowed to occur because of that dereliction.

So what is it exactly that you support, as you're sending conflicting messages.

The escorting thing was already fact checked as false.

Those cops were basically just keeping tabs on them, and contentiously/calmly asking them to leave. They were insanely out numbered, so they couldn't do much else.

PolitiFact | Evidence rebuts Tucker Carlson’s claim about Capitol Police acting as tour guides to ‘QAnon Shaman’

It saddens me that so many Americans are now even more confused about this event. Ugh the far right cult sickens me.

You never answered my question because you know I was right.

Then it should be very easy to answer my simple question. In those two images I posted was there an opportunity for the cops to handcuff Chansley?

I do not want copy-pasted articles, tweets or any other nonsense. Just your own analysis in your own words.

No I know you're wrong. Also not all cops knew every action each individual took. That is why investigations were done.

So it was impossible for two police officers to handcuff a single unarmed man? Ok then....

I understand that, and I agree.

I'm only challenging Sargent on the logic of what he already believes, because there's no changing that, no matter how many links or quotes you will throw at him. That's futile. But it would seem to me, if he thinks the officers should be investigated for their conduct, that is an implicit concession to guilt on their part, and if that is so, then that is a further indictment of Chansley's actions which occurred under their supervision.

Chansley cannot be innocent if the cops escorting him are in the wrong. Because Sarge seems to agree with that saying they should be investigated, what then is the basis for exoneration?

I literally posted multiple fact checks directly telling you that you are wrong.

Reading can't be that hard.

I'll paraphrase it for you. The Capitol Police themselves said they were extremely out numbered and to not engage. The Police did not let him in, he entered himself with the first group that broke down the doors (and was with the initial group that broke down external barriers too, in plane view RIGHT NEAR police being pushed back).

The Police asked them to stop, instead he did not stop and instead used his bullhorn to tell the crowd to continue forward. He was among the first in the Senate chambers, and left a threatening note to Pence. His motive was clear and he broke many laws.

These are well established facts.

Honestly after reading more on this today, I'm surprised it was just 3.5 years.

This is as crazy as defending Ashley Babbit. Just admit you were tricked by Tucker. No one will judge you.

*sigh* Read the entire post.

Also you have a preconceived idea of what went on and don't care about the overall picture. Can you show evidence he did not do what he was convicted of doing? I don't give a **** what he did before or after.

I never claimed the police didn't ask him to stop. I never claimed he didn't use his bullhorn.

I never claimed the police was not outnumbered. I never claimed the police let him in. I never claimed he did not enter with the first group.

I never claimed the police did not ask him to stop. I never claimed he was not among the first in the senate chamber. I never claimed he did not leave a theatening note to Mike Pence. I never claimed his motives were not clear. I never claimed he did not break multiplie laws.

I simply asked: In those two situation in the images was there an opportunity for the police to arrest/handcuff the man?

I guess you're not going to answer the question. Typical.

The Police literally answered this question,

“No attacking, no assault, remain calm,” Robishaw told the men.

Later, when Chansley had made his way to the Senate floor, Robishaw saw him and followed him inside, by himself, and tried to get Chansley and others already in the chamber to leave.

“I walk in behind him, and that’s when I realized I was alone now. I was by myself,” Robishaw told the documentarians. “I was like, ‘I can’t do anything.’ You know? I can only do is, you know, shout orders, and if they listen, great, if they don’t, I can’t force them. I’m all by myself.”

In video filmed by a New Yorker reporter, Robishaw is shown saying to the men: “Any chance I could get you guys to leave the Senate wing?” At one point, a protester says, “You should be stopping us.” Robishaw responds that he is outnumbered.

According to court documents, Chansley and others did not exit the chamberuntil additional law enforcement officers arrived to back up Robishaw.

I gave this link a page ago....

He's not getting out early because of Tucker's little tricks.

So then why are you complaining about his 4 years?

There appears to be a disconnect here. You don't dismiss the reasons he got the 4 years but still think it's too much.

NOT REAL NEWS: A look at what didn't happen this week - The Washington Post

Posts misrepresent rioter’s actions in Jan. 6 Capitol attackCLAIM: Footage from the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol shows that Jacob Chansley, who participated in the riot sporting face paint, no shirt and a fur hat with horns, was “led through the Capitol by police the entire time he was in the building.”

THE FACTS: Court documents and video footage from the attack on the Capitol make clear that Chansley, who is widely known as the “QAnon Shaman” and is one of the most recognizable Jan. 6 rioters, entered the Capitol without permission, was repeatedly asked to leave the building and was not accompanied at all times. After Fox News host Tucker Carlson broadcast previously unseen Jan. 6 security footage on his Monday night primetime show, social media users began sharing segments from his program that misrepresented Chansley’s involvement in the riot. “BREAKING: Never before seen video of January 6 shows Jacob Chansley, the QAnon Shaman, being led through the Capitol by police the entire time that he was in the building,” reads a tweet that includes a clip from Carlson’s show. But the footage leaves out important context about Chansley’s time in the Capitol that day. A statement prepared by the Department of Justice, which was signed by Chansley and his attorney, provides a timeline of the rioter’s movement in the Capitol. For example, the statement explains that Chansley entered the Capitol through a broken door as part of a crowd that “was not lawfully authorized to enter or remain in the building” and that he was one of the first 30 rioters inside. It goes on to note that although officers asked Chansley and others multiple times to leave the Capitol, he did not comply and actively riled up his fellow rioters. The statement describes Chansley’s interactions with officers, but also points out that he “entered the Gallery of the Senate alone.” Chansley pleadedguilty in September 2021 to a felony charge of obstructing an official proceeding. He was sentenced in November 2021 to 41 months in prison. Asked about claims that protesters were led through the building, a Capitol Police spokesperson pointed The Associated Press to an HBO documentary about the riot, “Four Hours at the Capitol,” in which an officer describes his encounter with Chansley, including how he asked the rioter and others to leave the Senate wing. Footage from the interaction appears in the documentary. “Any chance I can get you guys to leave the Senate wing?” the officer says as Chansley sits in the presiding officer’s chair on the Senate Dais. A video of Chansley walking into the Capitol through the broken door is publicly available on the website of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. U.S. Capitol Police Chief J. Thomas Manger lambasted Carlson’s segment on the Jan. 6 footage in an internal memo Tuesday. “Last night an opinion program aired commentary that was filled with offensive and misleading conclusions about the January 6 attack,” Manger wrote. “One false allegation is that our officers helped the rioters and acted as ‘tour guides.’ This is outrageous and false.”

How many outlets have to debunk this thread, embarrassing.

SargentD hits a new low.

Do you have a better source to confirm these claims? Why post a proven fake news TV Show? This is going by 2 court cases.

It's pretty astonishing in how much Tucker absolutely despises his own audience and his audience seems to be totally fine with it. This is some kind of truly weird psychological masochism going on.

No one thinks Tucker Carlson viewers are dumber than Tucker Carlson does.

Particularly a TV Show that was fact checked 5 times in this thread alone. You could not refute my fact checkers regarding this thread, meaning you know the thread is fiction based. Meaning you can not plead ignorance. You know you're peddling lies.

Prosecutors say newly aired Chansley footage paints misleading portrait of his Jan. 6 conduct - POLITICO

“Prior to that time, Chansley had, amongst other acts, breached a police line at 2:09 p.m. with the mob, entered the Capitol less than one minute behind Pezzola during the initial breach of the building, and faced off with members of the U.S. Capitol Police for more than thirty minutes in front of the Senate Chamber doors while elected officials, including the Vice President of the United States, were fleeing from the chamber,” they continued.

In Sunday’s filing, however, the Justice Department contended that it had shipped all but 10 seconds of the footage to Chansley’s attorney by Sept. 24, 2021 — about three weeks after Chansley pleaded guilty but more than a month before his sentencing.

“Once tethered to facts and reality, defendant Pezzola’s arguments quickly unravel,” the Justice Department wrote.

You stood no chance Sarg.

It's official. The shaman has been freed!

Sushiglutton! Tucker did it! He freed the Shaman!! Lmao

https://www.dailywire.com/news/qanon-shaman-jacob-chansley-released-from-prison

No he didn't. He plead guilty. This was an early release to a half-way house for good behavior and had absolutely nothing to do with Tucker's fake news.

You don't understand how anything works.

'QAnon Shaman' Jacob Chansley, a Capitol rioter, gets early release from prison : NPR

Chansley, 35, was convicted of obstruction of an official proceeding in Nov. 2021 and sentenced to 41 months in prison. But prison records show that Chansley has been moved to a residential reentry management facility in Phoenix, where he is originally from, and is expected to be released on May 25.

Chansley received an early release, in part, because of his good behavior while in prison, says Albert Watkins, who represented Chansley through his plea and sentencing.

Why do all of your posts have to be either lies or severely misleading.

I love how Tucker lives rent free in so many of your peanut brains. Doesn’t take much to agitate the lunatic woke brigade.
