Fox News anchor Carlson: “These never-before-released footage of the interior of the Capitol subverts the so-called “violent shock” scenes previously reported by the media.

McCarthy also disclosed another fact that the “January 6 Committee” did not tell the public.
MCCARTHY: “There’s a lot more video than the ‘January 6 committee’ would tell you or the American public, they said there was only 14,000 hours of footage. But we did find out that one of the Democrats on the committee did visit Congress that day building, but it was never exposed.”
In addition, the video on the show also showed that the Capitol Police did not stop Jacob Chanceley, known as the “horn man”. Carlson said Chansley did not break into Congress but was guided in by police. Police took him to several entrances and tried to open locked doors for him.
