Before Tucker Carlson aired some unseen January 6 footage Monday night, politicians and pundits were in a panic. Rep. Jamie Raskin said it was a “roadmap” to another insurrection. The harpies on “The View” wondered if Carlson was setting up the next 9/11. Carlson was going to reveal the location of safe rooms and show the video surveillance capabilities of the Capitol.
But what Carlson showed was the QAnon Shaman being escorted around the building by Capitol Police.
We used to think Mitch McConnell was cool. What happened to “Cocaine Mitch”? The Grim Reaper? He’s calling it a “mistake” to have aired the footage on Fox News.

This is our "Republican Leader" in the senate.
What a joke.

"the government fought to keep hidden." Why is this? I think we all know.

Leader McConnell should be censured immediately 👊🏽🇺🇸

Nothing in the January 6th footage includes an excuse to send another billion to Ukraine.

Priorities.
The "mistake" was been keeping this footage from the American people for 2+ years, furthering this heinous "insurrection" lie.

Not to mention time and money wasted to ‘investigate’ it.

This is so disturbing that that elected members want less information to get out into the public

So he only trusts the Chief of the Capitol Hill Police? Would this be the same Capitol Hill Police who were holding open doors and waving people to come inside?

And were awarded medals for it?
This is yet another Great Sorting.

Tucker seems to have struck a nerve.

I thought we were for transparency Mitch?

Our "leader". We're being sabotaged from the inside.

So, count McConnell with all the democrats and pundits and journalists who thought it was a grave mistake to give Tucker Carlson the January 6 footage. What a disappointment.
