How about prosecuting all of the BLM and antifa terrorists that burnt every major city to the ground last summer? Huh? How about throwing those fuckers in jail for life! The only person murdered on J6 was a peaceful protestor.

“Peaceful protestors” don’t climb through broken windows into secure areas of federal buildings.

Please respond substantively or not at all.

Literally anything we haven’t seen is “possibly exculpatory”, isn’t it?

Imagine that you were waved into the building by guards, and have been under 23 hour/day lockdown in prison awaiting trial for 9 months, and the government is refusing to release video you say would support your claim. The state is apparently using video evidence to prosecute you, but your lawyer can't get other parts of the same body of video evidence.

no one was waved in, there's plenty of video of people breaking windows and through doors to get in

Begging the question. Defendants say they were waved in, government is withholding video evidence that may support their claim. Hopefully you agree that no valid conviction could be obtained under such circumstances.

Do the defendants have any of their own video evidence to back that up? If this hand-waving were such a big issue, surely someone would have recorded it, even if only by accident.

I've seen a video of these protestors(looked like a quite tour group) politely asking things of the security there. It looked fake judging by how the media blew this up. Never saw that video again, just disappeared. Tech is aligned with the establishment, they have been censoring videos at the request of our politicians for a while now. That technically isnt government censorship is it?
