lawsuit in what is arguably the most painful chapter in their lives, hats off. thanks, chris. and thanks to you at home for joining us this hour. one of the most watched cable news programs in all of the united states is rewriting the history of january 6th, defending the violent mob that attacked the capitol, and they re doing it with c the explicit aid and support of the highest ranked elected republican in the country. last night fox news host tucker carlson aired his first news report, footage carlson was given access to by speaker of the house kevin mccarthy. we re not going to show you all of tucker carlson s defense for january 6th rioters here, but this is a sample of what the fox newsat audience heard last nigh. very little of january 6th was organized or violent. it was neither an insurrection or deadly. they were peaceful or meek. these were not insurrectionists, they were sight seers. they re not destroying the capitol. they re there because they believe the
about good, versus evil, an insurrection with no guns that took place at the u.s. capitol, those were lies and were lies told for a very specific purpose. of course the people in power wanted more power and they got it from the basis of those lies. essentially this is how tucker carlsonhi is attempting whitewash the crimes there were committed on januarycr 6th. play footage of rioters trespassing on capitol grounds but not engaging in any violence, play footage of police officers shepherding the rioter around and assert because police weren tss arresting the riotersn the spot, that the claims of an insurrection are all hoax. except despite what whatever footage a w fox news host has cobbled together to make his point, theos american justice system has been very clear what happened on january 6th. it was a crime scene. people who participated in the storming of the capitol, broke the law. and many of them are now in jail.
