Hello, everybody, and thank you for tuning in to the weekly report.

The real January 6th coup.

In my first column, after the events of January 6th, 2021,

I criticized those who called the protest a coup,

pointing out that some of the same politicians and bureaucrats denouncing the ridiculous farce at the Capitol as if it were the equivalent

In their real coups, many thousands of civilians have died.

The media at that time played up the violence committed by a relative few

at the protest to stoke a national outcry and demands for justice.

More than 1,500 Americans were charged over the incident, and nearly 500 were in prison,

including outrageous prison sentences for relatively minor crimes like entering the Capitol

building through doors opened by the police and filling the event.

While most Democrats and Republicans in Congress harshly denounced the January 6th insurrectionists,

a few members displayed the appropriate skepticism over accepted government narratives.

Representative Thomas Massey, for example, was relentless in his search for answers to a simple but a critically

important question.

How many of the insurrectionists were actually undercover FBI agents and other law enforcement

officials?

And what role might they have been playing in inciting the violence?

Massey grilled then, Attorney General Mary Garland, several times, but Garland would not budge.
