US Rep. releases Jan. 6 video images of Capitol Police officer who Blaze News writer says appears to have lied in court

DAVE URBANSKI  |  NOVEMBER 06, 2023

U.S. Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-Georgia) has released video images from Jan. 6, 2021, showing the movements of a Capitol Police officer who Blaze News investigative journalist Steve Baker said appears to have given false testimony regarding his whereabouts that day during a key encounter with members of the Oath Keepers.

Loudermilk, chairman of the Committee on House Administration Subcommittee on Oversight, said in a statement to Baker that he released the still frames — from closed-circuit TV video with timestamps — of U.S. Capitol Police Special Agent David Lazarus because "an allegation of a Capitol Police officer lying under oath is very serious and must be fully investigated."

What's the background?
Baker's Oct. 4 investigative story for Blaze News was based on his exhaustive examination of Jan. 6 CCTV video to which he was given access.

In that story, Baker noted that Jan. 6 prosecutors — in their attempt to prove Oath Keepers were guilty of trying to overthrow the U.S. government — said members of the group were involved in a contentious interaction with law enforcement at the top of the stairs next to the Capitol Rotunda, which also is known as the small or mini rotunda or the Speaker’s Lobby.

However, Baker said no video evidence from Capitol CCTV cameras was presented to the jury — despite the existence of at least 1,700 cameras in and around the building and grounds and 41,000 hours of footage. In fact, Baker said much of the video footage has been kept from the public defenders as well as the public.  .  .

UPDATE Feb. 24, 2024
Biden administration now prosecuting Steve Baker for being an actual reporter.
Catherine Herridge was the shot over the bow, perhaps. This freaking fascist government is going after news reporters who dare report the truth.

Baker will be charged in Dallas, TX, where he has been working for @theblaze (not Raleigh, where he lives and where the FBI investigation into him has been based out of)

Misdemeanors? For what? Terrorism? Is there such a thing as misdemeanor terrorism charges? 60 other journalists entered  the Capitol on J6. Do we all have to see the world through the same prism?
Here we go. Game on. I will not take a plea deal.

Biden administration has begun the criminal prosecution of opposition journalists.

Steve has been the most careful, meticulous, detailed journalist uncovering @CapitolPolice wrongdoing.

Steve Baker's latest scoop, aired last week, showed how a key @CapitolPolice surveillance camera monitoring the Democrat National Committee HQ suddenly was turned away from the DNC during the time the supposed pipe bomb was planted. Here's the story.:

Also, the latest print edition of the Epoch Times has an article detailing that the same cameras were turned away from the site of the pipe bomb at DNC headquarters when the bomb squad arrived, and kept focused offsite until after the device had been recovered and dealt with.

Once may be an accident, but start prosecuting everyone who finds fault with key parts of the narrative, and there is a syndrome present, not a theory, but a conspiracy to cover up misdeeds or critical inaccuracies (lies) seminal to the prosecution of opposition figures.

Like the man said, what's the charge? Misdemeanor insurrection, or just misdemeanor reporting?
Freaking banana republic.

 The Biden regime has arrested a reporter for his coverage of J6 and ongoing FBI malfeasance. Steve Baker has been handcuffed and arrested for doing his job. AP and Reuters journalist supportive of Biden have not been arrested. Nor were reporters from leftist news organizations who entered the Capitol that day.
