🧵I've verified with Cage that the GFM account set up for him and his X page are both legitimate. Please show him some love by helping pay for that equipment. Now ... we just need a share from @elonmusk of the original post and a BIG helping hand from @CaterpillarInc.⬇️ Additionally, even though the stated goal of only $3,000 has already been reached, let's make it $200,000 so he can pay off that equipment. (By the way, Cage is already sharing those funds with other volunteers in greater need than himself.)

🧵THREAD AHEAD🧵:

At 6:18:54 pm on J13 - seven minutes after would-be-assassin Crooks was terminated - @SecretService Special Agent “Better Call Saul Goodman” asks, “Is the shooter down? … Is he a shooter? Did he have a weapon?” The local cop responds, “That was the report.”⬇️ Image At the exact same moment, with Crooks dead for more than 7 minutes, Special Agent "Shaft” and two other @SecretService agents are still cowering behind a large truck rig behind the stage with their guns drawn. (Curiously, that BWC video contains no audio.)⬇️ Image

🚨THREAD🚨: To begin … PLEASE PAY ATTENTION … All of us at @theblaze and @blazetv believe the @FBI’s Mar-a-Lago document raid was an unprecedented, reprehensible political attack ordered by the Biden camp against Trump. Maybe even illegal. But … A more comprehensive review (and release) of the FBI’s MAL “Law Enforcement Operations Order” form FD-888 and FD-302 paints an entirely less “mind-blowing” picture than the artifical rage storm that was unleashed last week.

🧵Q&A THREAD🧵- Following yesterday's sentencing of the infamous John Sullivan to 6 years in prison, I'm still amazed by all the misinformation that persists about him, even from those who seem to follow J6 stories closely. I'll be happy to answer questions here.⬇️ Image I, too, carried a lot of inaccurate beliefs about him for two and a half years. Then, I dug in. I've interviewed John, his brother James, both of his parents, spent a few minutes with Jade Sacker, and am the only journalist who attended every minute of his trial.⬇️

🚨THREAD🚨- As I’ve been able to show via @theblaze and @BlazeTV - through a series of stories and videos (linked in this thread) - former @capitolpolice officer Harry Dunn (@libradunn) is anything BUT the man the mass media made him out to be post-January 6.⬇️ Because of my early and frequent access to the Capitol CCTV videos - before @RepLoudermilk’s staff began making those videos public on @rumblevideo - my team was able to show you that the man portrayed as the HERO of J6 (@libradunn) is actually the LIAR of J6.⬇️

🚨🧵🚨: “The @CapitolPolice strongly opposes the public release of any of its CCV footage from Jan 6, 2021, outside of the criminal prosecutorial process, particularly the public release of thousands of hours of footage in the aggregate.” -Thomas “Tad” DiBiase (@TheNoBodyGuy) General Counsel for USCP, on July 25, 2023 In early March of last year, sources revealed @TheJusticeDept knew of a particular story I was working on, and “we're not happy about it.” If the DOJ knew, then Tad DiBiase knew. DiBiase is the direct link between the DOJ and USCP. After all, he is a former DOJ AUSA himself.

🚨BREAKING🧵- This time, it’s really happening.

Unlike the two previous threats my attorneys received from @FBI / @thejusticedept (Nov. 21 and Dec. 23), my self-surrender for alleged J6 crimes is set for this Friday morning in Dallas, TX. There is now a signed arrest warrant.⬇️ I must turn myself in to the @FBI at 7 am, and then the FBI (or US Marshalls?) will transport me to the Dallas courthouse, where I can meet my attorney at 9:30 am.
I’m then scheduled for a 10 am hearing before the magistrate.⬇️

I want to personally thank these men for their commitment - not just to my fight - but also to the fight for important underlying constitutional issues in my case and the blatant selective prosecution of voices that don't align with the current administration. ⬇️

💥Boom Chicka Boom💥 THREAD:

An unnamed @CapitolPolice source, who I’ve been working with for more than a year, just sent me this private message following his review of the latest on the J6 pipe bombs from @theblaze and @DarrenJBeattie with @RevolverNewsUSA: “EVERY SINGLE 10-100 (suspicious package) I’ve responded to or declared, I never saw my coworkers disregard their/other’s safety as I saw in that video...

🚨Breaking🚨 - Sources within @CapitolPolice today confirmed to me that USCP Officer Harry Dunn's (@libradunn) resignation from the department was effective on Dec. 15, 2023. One can only speculate about the reasons for his departure before earning full retirement benefits.⬇️ Dunn can continue accruing time if he takes another federal job. Several weeks ago, he floated a trial balloon about his interest in running for Congress. He resides in @RepRaskin's district in MD. Given @SenatorCardin's announcement last May of his intention to retire...⬇️

🚨THREAD🚨: Given the reactions from our sources inside @CapitolPolice to last night’s thread, I’ve decided to go ahead and drop the names of those who produced and distributed the anonymous letter on USCP letterhead on May 19, 2021. Follow this thread. ⬇️ It's no secret I had direct contact with @CapitolPolice Officer Harry Dunn for several weeks. This began with a four-hour-long personal meeting in September of this year. We maintained contact until @theblaze went public with Part 1 of our series about him and SA Lazarus.⬇️

🚨THREAD🚨: This anonymous letter on @CapitolPolice letterhead was distributed to members of the Capitol press pool and circulated by Rep. Jamie Raskin’s office to other Congress members on the evening of May 19, 2021. There are a few big problems…⬇️ Image …with this letter. As a department, @capitolpolice does not issue anonymous press releases. Indeed, not of a political nature. This letter, drafted by a USCP officer, violates several USCP employee regulations.⬇️

🧵THREAD 🧵: Now that everyone is in a tryptophan coma . . .

I spoke with a Senior Congressional Aide on Tuesday morning regarding the fallout after the limited release of J6 videos under the direction of @SpeakerJohnson. ⬇️ They, too, are following and monitoring all the comments. They are aware the first thing that needs to be addressed is the timecodes are stripped once they convert from the Capitol CCTV software to basic MP4 format for uploading. ⬇️

THREAD: Day Four of John Sullivan's trial begins this morning. This will likely be the last day of testimony before the jury gets this one. John took the stand yesterday afternoon, about half an hour before recess. He'll resume direct examination this morning. ⬇️ My article on the first two days of the trial pissed some of you off, but flooding my X with screenshots of Sullivan's past social media posts, Discord, videos, etc., of his previous words and activities doesn't show me anything I don't already know.⬇️

THREAD: The John Sullivan trial has a 'different' kind of feel. I'm not insinuating anything, but while the government attorneys are saying and presenting all the "facts" and video evidence related to Sullivan's behavior, they are doing so without much exuberance.⬇️ By comparison, in the trial of indy journalist Stephen Horn - who made the mistake of joining in a chant of "USA, USA, USA" - he was basically treated like a terrorist by the government prosecutors, who oozed disdain for the defense's presentations of his historical journalism.⬇️

🚨THREAD🚨: Regarding @theblaze 's recent story about @CapitolPolice Special Agent David Lazarus's Oath Keeper trial testimony, we are pleased to finally be able to release a statement from @RepLoudermilk, followed by never-before-seen screenshots from Capitol CCTV video...⬇️ “An allegation of a Capitol Police officer lying under oath is very serious and must be fully investigated. For this reason, I am releasing these still frames from USCP CCTV video footage, with timestamps, showing the movements of Officer Lazarus on January 6, 2021.” ⬇️

THREAD: Not a book review. Just a list of questions to help me prepare for what’s coming.

We’re only five days away from the release of @HachetteBooks @HachetteUS book by @CapitolPolice Officer Harry Dunn @libradunn’s book, “Standing My Ground.” ⬇️

amazon.com/Standing-My-Gr… In addition to all the videos I’ve harvested from Capitol CCTV for @theblaze’s upcoming series on “A Day in the Life of @CapitolPolice Officer Harry Dunn” . . . Perhaps others can help me acquire certain videos to tighten everything up. ⬇️

THREAD: @HachetteBooks ... on page 80 of the prerelease copy of Harry Dunn's book, received by Blaze Media, his ghostwriter wrote: "Right across from where I was standing, I could read the sign above the door to her office in gold leaf and all capital letters, . . . ⬇️ Image . . . 'SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE NANCY PELOSI.' I'm guessing those idiots didn't see it."

This may seem like a minor issue . . . but that simply could not have happened. Dunn didn't arrive at the top of that staircase facing the Speaker's Lobby until 2:44 p.m., and . . . ⬇️

McCree seems like a stand-up guy. 30 years on the force. Probably an exemplary career, but... ⬇️ ...Lt. McCree has no knowledge of what @stephenehorn either did or didn't do on #Jan6.

THREAD: Lunch break for @stephenehorn trial. Opening statements were made. The government recaps the events of #jan6 and characterizes Stephen as "one of those rioters," saying, "On January 6, he was part of the mob." They never mentioned his journalistic activities . . . ⬇️ The government says @stephenehorn ignored all the "signs" - literal and implied - of the restricted space he'd entered on J6. They make no mention of the hundreds of other journalists in that restricted space who have never been charged with a crime. Many who were . . . ⬇️
