The newly discovered footage was filmed by this USCP officer with this camera
This new video footage conclusively shows that no legally required dispersal warnings were given to J6 protesters before open firing on them
This highly exculpatory footage and evidence was EXCLUDED from the J6 Select Committee hearings, and was withheld from defendants and the American public for 4 years!

Dispersal warnings have been required of DC police forces to disperse a protest going back to as early as 1977, and have been reinforced by the DC Circuit Court numerous times:
Law and precedent hold that is unlawful to open fire on a crowd, even if some individuals are committing violence, without first warning everybody to come into compliance or disperse:
Not only are dispersal warnings required by the DC Court, but the DC FAAA requires the use of an LRAD amplification system at minimum, mandating that warnings are not sufficient unless they are clearly audible:
see: DC First Amendment Assemblies Act; Dellums v. Powell, 566 F.2d 167, 184 (D.C. Cir. 1977); Chang v. United States, 738 F. Supp. 2d 83 (D.C. Cir. 2010); Barham v. Ramsey, 434 F.3d 565 (D.C. Cir. 2006); Goodwin v. Dist. of Columbia 579 F. Supp. 3d 159 (D.D.C. 2022).
"Dellums [566 F.2d 167] establishes a "bright line rule" that "where a group contains persons who have not been violent or obstructive, police may not mass arrest the demonstration as a group without fair warning or notice and the opportunity to come into compliance and disperse."
USCP Deputy Chief Waldow gives no dispersal orders and has no LRAD, yet he can be heard on radio transmissions claiming to have given warnings numerous times.

1:13PM: DC arrives with canisters of OC spray and pelican cases full of explosives 4 stimuli upon explosion inflicting "psychological and physiological effects". They wage war on the sea of people on the West Plaza who had done nothing wrong mercilessly for more than an hour.
DC commander Glover orders his officers to begin throwing grenades deep into the J6 crowd with no warnings given.
1:18: Just minutes prior to the arrival of explosive munitions outside the Capitol, DC Sgt Thau demands Capitol snipers above open fire on the crowd.
Thau yells "FUCKING SHOOT THEM!"
Capitol snipers strike a group of entirely peaceful protesters standing near a large wooden cross.

On J6, DC and Capitol police shoot a round through a man's cheek, blow a man's lip off, and shatter another's femur with their projectile and explosive munitions, grenades, and mortars:
In early 2024, DC police Sgt Daniel Thau was interviewed by FBI, see Thau's 302 below:
Thau states that he believes officer munitions and use of force made things worse, they were set up, and that DOJ has been overly aggressive in prosecuting J6 defendants compared to George Floyd rioters. He argues that J6 defendants didn't know they were in a restricted area and were being railroaded by politically motivated DOJ who showed no interest in previous leftwing riots when he and other officers were injured.
Notably, Thau and his fellow officers DC MPD on the West Plaza had been sued at least 3 times for similar conduct against protesters with munitions:
Ferris v. Dist. of Columbia, No. 1:23-cv-481-RCL (D.D.C. 2023); Westfahl v. Dist. of Columbia, 75 F. Supp. 3d 365 (D.D.C. 2014); Black Lives Matter D.C. v. Trump, 544 F. Supp. 3d 15 (D.D.C. 2021).
2:18: DC police Sgt's Edwards and Thau admit to DC commander that their munitions are hitting innocent people, and inciting ten protesters for every one they hit:
On J6, Capitol & DC police were restricted from using munitions against protesters:
"Impact projectiles will not be fired indiscriminately into crowds"
On January 5, 2021, USCP operations plan explicitly restricted the firing of impact projectiles into crowds and required verbal dispersal commands using a PA system; outlining 13 permitted events on Capitol Grounds between Jan 4-6 and USCP primary mission objective "to provide an environment in which lawful first amendment activity can be safely demonstrated."
Months before J6 in 2020, DC City Council and DC Mayor Bowser banned the use of tear gas, pepper spray, rubber bullets and stun grenades by DC police to disperse a First Amendment assembly:

2:25: DC police, after exhausting nearly all of their munitions, gas their own police line and retreat. Watch this scene below in an excerpt from @TCNetwork in early 2024.
@TuckerCarlson says that J6: A TRUE TIMELINE should be the most famous film in America! @J6TrueTimeline
In late 2020, two expert DC lawyers came out and said that DC and Park police force used to clear the park outside the White House after George Floyd rioters sieged the White House was illegal.
@JonathanTurley testified before Congress 29 days later:
@ThePCJF did NPR 3 months later and filed suit:
They said the police were required to give multiple audible warnings using an LRAD-100x before firing munitions to disperse.
Following the guidance laid out by Turley in his written and oral testimony, use of force used against J6ers was against the law. Yet not Turley nor anyone else, including attorneys JD Vance and Harmeet Dhillon, has examined the incontrovertible evidence or has spoken out about it.
Why won't Congress call Turley in and investigate the J6 attacks seen in this thread?
