on air that “before airing any of this video, we checked first with the Capitol Police. We’re happy to say their reservations were minor and for the most part, they were reasonable.”after the footage aired that the department had repeatedly requested to review the clips and had not been able to.
At the Capitol on Friday, McCarthy said he had not read the police’s court filing and he instead reiterated his past claims that House GOP officials worked with the Capitol Police to determine which video clips were sensitive to security issues and should not be made public.“We asked the Capitol Police for any, any clips that would give them a problem, any area. They brought up one … so we fixed that,” he told reporters.
When the police first provided the security footage to the Committee on House Administration, they were not told that anyone outside the committee would be reviewing the footage, DiBiase said. DiBiase’s affidavit said people from Carlson’s show viewed footage while supervised by committee personnel before they were given any physical recordings. Even that is unusual, he indicated, saying that who can view footage is restricted by the police for security reasons and requests for clips are regularly denied, even in legal proceedings.DiBiase said he had “numerous conversations” with the House committee asking to review the clips.
The only clip DiBiase saw was one that had been categorized as sensitive. DiBiase said it was “substantially similar” to a clip already publicly available, so he approved it. The other approximately 40 clips that he was not shown had not been labeled as sensitive.
Good. Get the facts out…not the selective BS from the Democrat theatre production.
Twist and shout , shimmy and shake . Why is it so bad to let people see how the events of the day unfolded .
As is the Law
So what? They answer to him.
Elections have consequences
This needs to be investigated by an independent agency
Weird wonder how they CLEARED the tapes first before it was published? 😋
What’s he worried about?
The video makes them really look bad. Good thing they can’t cover it up.
Why are they entitled to know upfront?
It's not capital polices call And Tucker provided capital police with footage he was going to release, and blurred a door they requested. Cry wolf
Release it all to the PUBLIC
Well this is a lie. The owners of the video was the Capitol’s police. They did this to keep it from the courts. But with a new Sheriff in town they didn’t have a choice. By the was Kevin offer the footage to anybody and nobody wants it. WHY?
It didn’t give the Capitol police time to get their stories straight about the Fedsurrection, completely surprised em.
Ahh, they do not give a rat’s posterior about the Capitol police!
The police asked House Republicans to let them review every clip that would be made public for security reasons, Capitol Police lawyer Thomas DiBiase said in the six-page declaration. But DiBiase said he only viewed a single clip.
