Another video from the Jan. 6 Capitol riot was released by Tucker Carlson, who claims it offers a new perspective on the upheaval that will take place at the US Capitol in 2021.
Jacob Chansley, a purported QAnon Shaman, was reportedly seen being taken into the Senate by Capitol police in the video that was shown on his show Monday night. Carlson disputed the commonly held belief that Chansley, who was sentenced to four years in prison for the incident, violently barged into the room. Video of Capitol police officer Brian Sicknick, who passed away soon after the riot, was also released.
Initially, it was asserted that Sicknick died as a result of protesters’ use of a fire extinguisher and pepper spray against him. But a medical examiner later determined that he had passed away naturally. Carlson also showed a video of Sicknick exploring the Capitol after the assault.
He appeared to be in good health, which, according to the Fox News host, cast doubt on leftist media’s assertion that the Capitol riots were responsible for Sicknick’s death. He also brought up Ray Epps, who was observed encouraging the rioters to rush the Capitol but was never charged, leading some to believe that Epps was actually an informant. Epps has disavowed having a job with the government.

Jan.6 Capitol Riot Footage Shows QAnon Shaman
Carlson indicated Epps was lying on Monday. They clearly revere the Capitol, who noted that they queued up in tidy little lines and took selfies.
Carlson cited a video that showed Jacob Chansley, the ‘QAnon Shaman,’ entering the Capitol wearing a Viking helmet and baring his chest. On January 6, Chansley, a 33-year-old Arizonan naval veteran, was one of the most well-known people to visit the Capitol.
He was sentenced to approximately four years in prison for impeding a legal process. In the video, Chansley can be seen navigating the Capitol with the help of an official.
A group of riot cops stands in his way, yet they do nothing to stop him. Next, they lead him to a number of the chamber’s exits that look to be locked until seeing an open door through which he disappears.
Carlson also displayed what happened after the protesters confronted Officer Brian Sicknick. The day following the violence, on January 7, Sicknick, 42, passed away.
