Led by a salivating, sputtering, senawhore Schumer, both parties and the media have taken after Tucker Carlson for releasing previously suppressed footage of the January 6th riot at the Capitol. Swimming in their own outrage, they are could care less that an innocent man was scapegoated in what is now shown to have been a political show trial.
-o0o-
The Upper Crusti of the country are in over-drive that Tucker Carlson should have "selectively" released, hitherto suppressed, security video footage showing the peaceable nature of the January 6th insurrectionists once inside the Capitol. Rather than address the issue of why such material evidence should have been kept from Peelousy's supposedly full and fair hearing on the so-called "insurrection," Democratic sound boxes in office and in the media have taken to excoriating the messenger.
Leading the charge was none other than Senawhore Shuck Schumer who vented a pastiche of insinuation and invective blended with indignation and outrage. One gets caught up in this stuff like being overwhelmed by a wave that tosses you up over and around. One was helpless in the spin of Schumer's words. All one can do is shake the water out of one's ears when the overwhelming is over.
It is as pointless to parse such demagoguery as it would be to try to trace the paths of particular molecules of water in a tidlewave. The vile thing about sophistry is that it takes one page of analysis to deconstruct two sentences of bullshit. By the time one is finished everyone has collapsed either out of exhaustion or boredom and the demagogue walks away with his prize. This is why the average Joe simply knocks their teeth out, provided he can close enough.
We leave Schumer to is self-satisfied smirking and salivating. Just wipe away the slime and throw the rag out.
What was surprising was to see Republoscum united with Demorats on the issue, especially in view of the fact that they have sat sullenly on the side-lines while the Pelosicrats carried on with their witchhunt instead of dealing with the nation's business (except of course to fork billions over to some corrupt, bankrupt country in Eastern Europe).
The reason for the sudden show of unity is that they are all of them measily, mice. Behind all the pompous grandstanding, they are cowardly (and incredibly stupid) midgets, bereft of new ideas and cravenly subservient to their dildo-wielding donors.
They were all terrified for themselves on January 6th, crouching under their desks, and so they take after Tucker Carlson for showing footage Viking Warrior being quietly escorted from room to room by Capitol Hill cops.
Let's be clear. Whenever a large crowd is gathered to protest something there is a potential for violence. Grievance and anger are in the air and a spark can always set things off. There were in fact acts of violence on January 6th, mostly by some of the protestors. But the Capitol is a large edifice, and violence was not everywhere.
What the suppressed footage showed was that for the most part the protest outside and into the Capitol itself was surprisingly peaceful.
In this regard, one also has to differentiate between a threat, danger or potential -- all of which refer to something that might or could happen but did not.. and actual conduct which did. No senawhore or congressoid was actually accosted and threatened. Whether they would have been, whether there was an intent to do that, is a matter of opinion... but an opinion that has to be based on all of the footage not portions selected to buttress a chosen conclusion. Tucker is entirely right on this point. What is revolting is that the Upper Crusti don't see it.

What is even more revolting is that the prosecutors of Shaman Man suppressed -- I repeat -- suppressed exculpatory information. This is, and has for decades been, a MAJOR constitutional infringement, known as a Brady Violation, Under Brady v. Maryland (1963) 373 U.S. 83, 86-88, it is a prima facie violation of Due Process for the prosecution to suppress any evidence or information that is of material benefit to the defence. "Material" means anything that could be exculpatory or of assistance to the defence, including but not limited to sentencing issues. Moreover, it is not for the prosecutor to decide what is or is not relevant. The prosecution's duty is to liberally apply the "materiality" standard. Irrespective of its good or bad faith, if it calls it wrong, then it pays the price which is dismissal of the case or nullification of the verdict.
Worse than they hypocrisy of midgets on the hill, was the subversion of justice in the halls of law. Shaman Man, deserves to have his conviction set aside and to be immediately released. Nor should it be taken for granted that the judge or prosecutor are immune for their misconduct.
Immunity serves an important function in the administration of justice. But it should not be regarded as an absolute. If rights aren't absolute, neither are immunities. The suppression of evidence showing Shaman Man being peacefully escorted into the Senate Chamber where he did nothing but emit a wolf-like howl was too persuasive of innocence to not have been discovered. That it wasn't rendedered his trial a vindictive, farce and fraud. Neither judge nor prosecutor as the case may be should be allowed not to swing from the hook.
All democracies must endure demagoguery but when the machinery of justice is used to persecute scapegoats for political ends that is tyranny.
Those who participated in this hunt and those who knowing better stood by and let it happen have forever sullied themselves.
