Some #SeditionHunters reassurances: 1) the effort can go on even if Twitter fails 2) a report on the physical Jan 6 attack will be written even if the J6C doesn't.
Review of progress & resources: sync video is now timed to 1s on both sides of the Capitol (L: East, R: West)..1/
..letting us see how the Capitol attack was paced. In Tweet 1 video, the #BigMediaTowerFlag is dipped on the W just as Alex Jones climbs the E steps.
Release of security cam has let us build syncs over 3 hours long on both East and West sides of the Capitol. The channel also has some short highlighted clips showing the 'little signals' that mark the breaches. 3/
Maps and timelines of the Capitol attack are at bit.ly/Jan6Analysis. The attack is broken down into phases; each is described and has its own map showing major movements and breaches. 4/
The stages of the attack are described in the "Phases" timeline, see docs.google.com/document/d/1jx…. Phases were defined in Oct. 2021 and the framework has held up. (Only 1 real change: the end of Phase 4 was moved back 7 minutes to 2:48 PM when we learned of one additional breach.) 5/
The "Timelines" folder holds multiple timeline versions that describe the attack. Some have clickable video links (L). The "Big Timeline" (R) has the most detailed accounting of events on Jan 6, including the movements of the major influencers. 6/ drive.google.com/drive/folders/…
The #SeditionHunters video archiving effort, led by @justhelpingout6, is now over 41,000 items (>5 TB), w/
4,888 Facebook accounts
1,476 Twitter

All video is publicly available on archive.org. The easiest way to start is through Jan6evidence.com: you can search ~3000 videos by time, location, and hashtag. For example, anyone searching for Ray Epps (#BigMagaCamo) can quickly find 30 sightings... 8/
The visualizer is no longer updated so some links are dead, but you can find all 41,000+ archived Jan 6 media items through the amazing media sheet (h/t the Jan6evidence team). No hashtag match but you can search by title, video ID, account, etc. 9/ jan6evidence.com/#/media-items
The media list doesn't include Parler videos, but those with location and timestamps are available on the ProPublica website, and others are hand-annotated with time, location, and suspect hashtags on jan6attack.com/videos.htm 10/
Of the ~15K invaders at the Capitol, over 1000 are fully hashtagged & over 3000 numbered. jan6attack.com/individuals.ht… allows search by hashtag, appearance, or affiliation; click for more photos, videos, & descriptions. Below are some of the over 250 Proud Boys at the Capitol. 11/
A full set of tags, including all 3000+ numbered "insiders" who entered the Capitol, is at seditionhunters.org/perpsheet/. This site is less searchable but more complete. 12/
For arrested suspects, you can find all court documents, as well as photos and description, at seditiontracker.com, built by @seditiontrack. 13/
The 'Agency Response Timeline', in the bit.ly/Jan6Analysis "Timelines" folder, compares all reports by responding law enforcement agencies to known events, showing their discrepancies. It also provides a compact graph that captures the attack. 14/ docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…
This is only a partial list of the open-access resources that have been assembled. All are listed and linked in the Jan6Analysis "Resources" document. Downloading this document will give you a reference guide to use in the event that Twitter goes down. 15/ docs.google.com/document/d/1zB…
Losing Twitter would be painful, as it holds nearly 2 years of work by the #SeditionHunters community - contributions by hundreds of volunteers who used Twitter as a shareable 'notebook'. But it's not fatal and the work of synthesizing what's been learned is well underway. 16/

Can we ask why Trump's new hire for the Bureau of Labor Statistics recorded a podcast promoting Project 2025 IN FRONT OF A PICTURE OF A NAZI WARSHIP? @briantylercohen flagged the podcast but missed the Bismarck. Is any reporter going to cover actual Nazis in our government? 1/
Compare the images. Who would do a podcast in front of a ship launched by Hitler, used to attack the US and Allies in WWII? Trump's appointees. People asked today, why did Trump pick the woefully unqualified Antoni for BLS? This is his qualification. 2/ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_ba…
See that forward gun turret right behind EJ Antoni, our new head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics? Here's Adolf Hitler inspecting the Bismarck in front of that same turret. We are way beyond dog-whistles. Antoni CHOSE to use Hitler's navy up as a backdrop. It was a choice. 3/
Don't sleep on how telling it that Trumps prepares to abandon Ukraine by using Russia-loving Hungarian autocrat Viktor Orban as the excuse: 'Orban told me that Russia is too powerful'. Remember that Orban, Trump, and Netanyahu are the product of the same US political machine. 1/
Orban made his country the poorest in Europe, but he's the role model for America's neo-fascist oligarchs. Peter Thiel & Yoram Hazony's "National Conservatism" is full of Hungarians; Orban's adviser signed their "principles". Even the Economist gets it. 2/ archive.is/GJWuN
Decades of fuckery is the same people, over and over. Arthur Finkelstein's army of dirty tricksters (Roger Stone and Paul Manafort are his 'boys'; Orban, Trump, and Netanyahu the products). Russian influences pushing the far right in the US and Europe. 2/
Sean Casten just learned that Mike Johnson was Dean of a planned law school named after pedophile Southern Baptist leader Judge Paul Pressler, who preyed on young boys. Wait til he learns that Ted Cruz was on its board. Pressler also gave Cruz one of his first endorsements. 1/
Johnson's failed Paul Pressler School of Law was a major play by the religious right. Its board, formed in 2010, was full of the biggest luminaries in the fundamentalist Evangelical universe. Then in 2011, the obscure Ted Cruz was added. Ask him why. 2/ web.archive.org/web/2012012200…
The Paul Pressler School of Law was an intensely political project, meant to train lawyers to overturn US law, build a Christian-focused government. That's why its board were key names - and then Cruz. Many of these people have Jan 6 connections. They're still power players. 3/
As Fox revisits Hilary's email server, let's do a comparative politics test. Question: why did the Jan 6 Committee have to subpoena phone records of Trump officials? Answer: because they were ALL using private emails and phones for government business. Yet no media covered it. 1/
Do you want to learn how Trump aide Vince Haley managed the 1776 Commission, worked on the Jan 6 speech, or negotiated Mike Flynn's pardon? It was on his @ newt. org email from when he worked for Newt Gingrich. Not submitted to the National Archives. 2/ govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GP…
Just look at the J6C's material: only a tiny portion is from the National Archives. Most of it is personal devices and personal emails, used by Trump officials for government business. Wildly insecure and also illegal. But sure, talk about Hillary. 3/ govinfo.gov/collection/jan…
People missed the likely explanation for Trump's bizarre ramble yesterday, when he falsely said his uncle taught the Unabomber Ted Kaczynski. Trump is under huge stress right now about the Jeffrey Epstein files. And it's Epstein who claimed that he studied with the Unabomber. 1/
That detail came out in 2019. After Epstein's address book got released, reporter Leland Nally called the numbers in it, and got a wild interview with Stuart Pivar, who said he was a close friend of Epstein's: "Jeffrey once told me that he studied math with the Unambomber." 2/
Epstein's story is a lie: Kaczynski quit teaching in 1969, when Epstein was in high school. But the interview reminds us again how odd it is that in 1974, after Epstein dropped out of college, he was immediately hired to teach math & physics at Dalton, a prep school. How? 3/
A part of the Epstein nothing-to-see-here fiasco no one's talking about: what happened to the "army of FBI agents" pulled off their cases in March to work on the Epstein files? Pam Bondi made people move to DC, pull all-nighters redacting the files. Did they just.. go home? 1/
Bloomberg: Pam Bondi demanded all the FBI's Epstein files, then ordered "hundreds" of agents to work on them (bizarrely via their personal phones). They were "holed up in offices at the bureau’s sprawling Central Records Complex". Are they still there? 2/ bloomberg.com/news/newslette…
The public should know what happened to Bondi's redaction effort, when and why (and if) the decision was made to send FBI agents home. And if she won't answer maybe one of those hundreds of agents is mad enough to leak. Keep your eye on who is next laid off at the FBI, too. 3/
