Former President Donald Trump has called for the committee investigating the January 6, 2021 unrest at the Capitol to be "tried for fraud and treason," claiming that crucial video footage was omitted and that recently-released security footage shows Capitol Police escorting some alleged Trump supporters through the Capitol building.
Martha Chansley, the mother of so-called "QAnon Shaman" Jacob Chansley, told Newsmax that she's "happy that the truth" of Jan. 6 "is being revealed" through a video showing two U.S. Capitol Police officers escorting her son past other police officers and to the door of the U.S. Senate the day of the protests, as his conviction was an "injustice."
Democrats have voiced concern over House Speaker Kevin McCarthy's recent decision to reveal hidden January 6 footage to television host Tucker Carlson.
