    Honestly, this is probably just theatre. The federal cops have almost certainly seen this footage.

    Also, we already saw most of the worst crimes on national TV.

      The DOJ had the footage since day 1. The GOP is blurring to protect these traitors from the public. Meanwhile, pretty crime suspects still get their faces plastered on local news.

      Rules for thee…

        Although, to be fair, a lot of these assholes were all over national TV. Sure, some folks probably flew under the radar, but the worst offenders are pretty well documented.

        IMHO, this is just the GOP trying to fire up its base by telling the base that they’re persecuted victims. It’s all for show, and getting angry about it only feeds into the narrative.

          I completely agree with you. It’s them letting their base know that they’ve “got their backs”

      The public has been identifying these traitors and then giving their names to the DOJ. The public uses the J6 footage to ID the traitors. That’s why blurring the faces is harmful to prosecuting these traitors. The DOJ needs the public’s help to identify them.
