🧵Part 2
More than two million people have already viewed my thread on Camera 0903, which shows strange activity in the middle of the night and morning, but I've only gotten through ~noon on January 6. To avoid clutter, this thread will cover the second part of the day.

At about 12:40 p.m. on January 6, Camera 0903 is zoomed in on a sidewalk area. Congress has intentionally blurred this footage to hide the details of who the people moving through here were.

However, at 12:20, Congress did not blur this same shot. Both of these clips come from the same 20 minute file, and both are before Ray Epps ran past the gates. So, Congress is intentionally hiding the identity of some people but not others.

In between these two clips is the zoomed out view of Sam Andrews group, which is where I ended the first thread.

Since this blurred footage is important, and since I've been very critical of @SpeakerJohnson for blurring video that is released - potentially hiding undercover feds - I am posting the entire 15 minutes of video they blurred leading up to the initial rush onto Capitol grounds.

At about 12:58, Camera 0903 zooms in on people who have rushed to the west front of the Capitol. Again, Congress has blurred the face of Ray Epps and others, depriving the public of the precise details needed to fully understand the events of January 6.

At 1:05, Camera 0903 centers on the media tower, where provocateurs like #NWScaffoldCommander are bullhorning for people to move forward and engage with police. However, whenever the camera zooms in on these provocateurs, @RepLoudermilk's @HouseAdmin committee blurs their faces.

Some of the closer shots Congress hasn't blurred. For example, by about 1:30, police had established a perimeter and for a period of time, things were relatively calm. This video is extremely clear.

The calm is broken when police begin launching flash bangs and gas canisters into the crowd at 1:32 p.m.

The police had one perspective, but many peaceful J6 protesters have said they were left with the impression that their own government was intentionally assaulting them.

By 1:37 p.m. the crowd had become unsettled, and scuffles began breaking out along the west front line.

Notice in the previous clip that Camera 0903 catches several undercover operatives filming on the inaugural platform. These are members of the D.C. police Electronic Surveillance Unit. You can read more about them here:

At 1:40 p.m., Camera 0903 catches Ray Epps helping to push a large sign into police. Epps was not charged with assault for this, like others have been, instead he received an unusual 1-misdemeanor pre-arranged plea. I was the first one to point out Epps sign push two years ago:

Just after 2 p.m., Camera 0903 pans the crowd, capturing the incredible number of patriotic Americans who came to Washington on January 6. Sadly, our extreme government has used mass collection warrants to seize phone, internet, and financial information on those who were there.

At 2:12 p.m., the Capitol Police Command Center pans camera 0903 to the Upper West Terrace, which the first protestors have just reached.

At 2:14 p.m., FBI informant #TracksuitPB James Ehren Knowles (orange tape on a black helmet) can be made out through the Congressional blur. Knowles carried flexcuffs into the Capitol and chased police into the visitor center. He testified that he was given permission from the FBI to commit crimes:

At 2:25 p.m., Camera 0903 captures police again launch munitions into the crowd. This results in many of their own officers being gassed and retreating from the line.

By about 2:28 p.m., the gassing has again amped up the crowd and the police line begins to break.

The @HouseAdmin committee has withheld (either intentionally or incompetently) approximately 10 minutes from 2:28 to 2:38 p.m. from camera 0903. When the footage resumes at 2:38, the west plaza is full of people.

For approximately, 14 minutes, camera 0903 zooms in on the crowd. If there are any feds in this video, Congress has blurred them out. At 2:53, the camera goes to the blue screen of death, then resets to a wide shot. By this time, police lines have formed on the upper terrace.

At other times, such as 3:16 p.m., Congress has not blurred video of the crowd. So, their argument that they are protecting people is ridiculous. They are only protecting certain people who were in the crowd at certain times! And Congress already gave the FBI the unblurred video!

Back to blurry footage of the same shot at 3:18. Who is Congress hiding here? Then the camera pans over to the Upper West Terrace where a police line has formed. Things are relatively peaceful on the terrace until police begin pushing the crowd out.

After about an hour of zoomed in crowd footage (which Congress has blurred to hide whoever they are trying to hide) camera 0903 pans back over to the upper west terrace as police begin pushing the crowd back at 4:20 p.m. (because of course police would choose 420).

Thanks to the Capitol Police Command Center, we have a nice zoomed in shot at 4:26 p.m. of police escorting people back down the same steps they first came up more than three hours earlier.

At about 4:44p.m., Camera 0903 took a wide shot of the area. A group of people was gathered in front of the federal court house and there appears to be a white bus similar to the 'ghost bus'
@RepClayHiggins pointed out. We would need Congress to release some of the street cameras for a better view.

The zoom in is done by me digitally to try and enhance the details.

@RepClayHiggins This 'ghost bus' appears to be similar to the one that was circling the Capitol at 5:20 a.m.

At 4:48 p.m., Camera 0903 goes back to police pushing people down the NW stairs. This clip shows a tactical team dropping grenades on the crowd and firing munitions at them.

At 5:13 p.m., camera 0903 recorded the last person on the SW scaffolding - a self-identified antifa named Jonathan Hart Kelly - being physically removed by police.

The wide view captured by Camera 0903 gives you an idea where undercover Detectives Leiva and Callahan were at 5:14 p.m.

Undercover officer Tomasula, who repeatedly urged people up the steps, is also in this area.

Leiva and Callahan were captured on Camera 0908 near Ashli Babbitt around 2:20 p.m:

Leiva, Tomasula, Callahan, and the rest of the 28 officers in the undercover Electronic Surveillance Unit weren't the only undercover police at the Capitol.

21-cr-00128 ECF No. 147, notes that members of MPD's Intel Unit were also undercover approximately 50 yards from the NW scaffold throughout the afternoon and into the evening.

It's interesting how some of the last to leave the Capitol grounds were also some of the first to arrive, some of the first to push up into the scaffold, and some of the most boisterous provocateurs who urged people forward and waved them in doors.

Shortly after 6:10 p.m., Camera 0903 shows police pushing people out of the Peace Circle. Then, for the first time, National Guard troops fill in behind them. USCP Chief Sund claims that both the Senate and House denied him NG support for 90 minutes, then DOD took several more hours to send troops. However, there are also reports that DOD had secret commando teams undercover at the Capitol. After J6, the DOD heavily classified most of their J6 files.

At around 7:20 p.m. Camera 0903 shows police circling around remaining protestors. These individuals were some of the first January 6 arrests. The circle also caught members of the media, who were eventually released. However, the DOJ has recently been threatening to arrest @TPC4USA who was on the ground reporting on January 6. Steve Baker has exposed the DOJ's blatant use of perjured testimony in January 6 trials.

By 9:15 p.m., members of the press are the only ones left in the parking lot leading up to the Peace Circle and Capitol. While the First Amendment protects both the right of speech and the press, these rights were treated unequally during the J6 curfew, and have been treated unequally in J6 cases. How can the non-violent exercise of speech on J6 receive a prison sentence, if exercise of press on J6 is deemed justified? And how can Congress make any law criminalizing either? Our First Amendment says Congress cannot, but in practice our government has begun criminalizing 1A rights. This is a dangerous precedent!

Update, even though the @HouseAdmin committee withheld this video from their main video list, it is included in their Rumble 'playlist' for camera 0903.

For the first two and a half minutes starting at 2:28 p.m., there is noticeable space between protestors and police, even though the barricades have fallen.

By 2:33 p.m., some in the crowd moved in closer, pressuring police to speed their retreat up the stairs.

Camera 0903 zoomed in on this pressure, but @SpeakerJohnson's staff have blurred out important details.

Notice how some individuals were working to hold the crowd back so that police had room to move up the stairs.

At 2:35 p.m., Ray Epps can be seen moving in from the right side of the screen, advancing towards the door and staircase where police are retreating to the upper terrace. Epps only turned back when the gas became too much for him to handle.

Bodycam from MPD Sgt. Tyrone Harris gives us a police perspective of the final few minutes on the lower terrace. Harris was the sergeant in charge of more than two dozen undercover officers on J6, but he himself responded to the Capitol in uniform.
