As we continue to get videos from the Jan. 6 cases (thanks media coalition lawyers!) my goal is to be better about sharing them as they come in. The latest batch today are from the case of Kenneth Harrelson, charged in the Oath Keepers conspiracy case; govt says he recorded these

This is the second one from the Harrelson batch, recorded from what looks like the top of steps leading up to an entrance at the Capitol. You can see the crush of people trying to push through the door

Here's the third and final one from the Harrelson batch (shorter clip to make the file size work). Govt made a point of noting the loud alarm, arguing that "should have made it be obvious to Defendant Harrelson that the Capitol was under attack and the rioters were not welcome"

An Iowa man who led a mob that chased Officer Eugene Goodman inside the Capitol on Jan. 6 will be released from jail, six months after his arrest. What changed, and what it says about where things are at with these prosecutions:   buzzfeednews.com/article/zoetil…

These aren't new anymore, but on the subject of Douglas Jensen — DOJ yesterday released videos from his cell phone that they cited in arguing to keep him in jail. He was off on the location, but they argued it showed his intent to cause "mayhem" and disrupt the democratic process

This next Jensen case video is only six seconds, but it's got a lot going on. The sound of the crowd, plumes of something rising up in the distance, people making their way up the stairs towards an entrance to the Capitol

The last one depicts rioters yelling at a line of police who are fully kitted out in riot gear
