Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky recently appeared on Tucker Carlson’s program to speak with Tucker about how the footage Tucker Carlson’s program has shared and explained, saying that it changed his perceptions of the day even though he was there.
Speaking on that and explaining how the tapes of people being mostly peaceful changed his perceptions, Massie said “You’ve exposed so many lies tonight with these tapes that it’s changed my perception of what happened two years ago, and I was there. The tapes of people milling peacefully about, and my hat’s off to your producers for sitting over there and going through hours of this.”
Continuing, Massie then called on Tucker to release all of the footage so that the American people can go to work in examining it and picking out even more clips from is that demolish the corporate media’s lies about what went on, saying:
“But I would love to you to unleash the resourcefulness of the American public on these videos. I think they should be released. You know, I think it’s poppycock that they can’t be released because of some security issues. Look, I’m the one who is supposed to be secured by these buildings, and I’m not worried about releasing them.
“They need to be released. In fact, there was a Rasmussen poll that just came out that showed over 80%, 78% of Democrats and 86% of Republicans say that all the videos should be released, and they should because, as you said, Tucker, you didn’t have facial recognition software there. We need a complete catalog of all of the Feds who were there. Tell us who they were.”
Then, commenting on what sort of things people might find if they are given access to the footage and time to poke through it, Massie brought up Ray Epps and the likelihood of FBI or other federal agency involvement in instigating the day’s events.
“Let’s watch the videos and let’s see what they did because there are some really strange behavior on those videos of people behind the police lines in plain clothes, like touching them on the shoulder, talking in their ear, walking up around boundaries, as if they weren’t even there.
“It’s very odd. I’m the one who asked Merrick Garland. I showed him the tape of Ray Epps. The Democrats didn’t like it. I had to show it on an iPad for Merrick Garland to watch it, and then he refused to say how many Feds were there. But that was also in the Rasmussen poll, 57 percent of Democrats think that it is at least somewhat likely that Feds, agents of the Federal government, we’re not just there, but we’re also encouraging people to riot or go into the Capitol.”
On Monday, Tucker said, when introducing the footage:
“Once you see the video, you will understand why. Taken as a whole, the video record does not support the claim that January 6th was an insurrection. In fact, it demolishes that claim.”
“That is exactly why the Democratic Party and its allies in the media prevented you from seeing it. By controlling the images you are allowed to view from January 6th, they control how the public understood that day.”
