    Just a question, but as most of this footage was aired live Jan 6, would someone not already have the un-blured footage? Someone should start sharing that footage anyway. Why even play these games?

      Of course the FBI has it. But, there is a whole lot more than what was on TV. Lots of cameras on the Hill.

        But so much was on television from those cameras, the station got that footage somehow. The people that have access to the footage (in part or whole) should put it forward. I don’t think this is a good idea to try to protect the identity of insurrectionists from the country unless they are charging all involved. Now you will once again make it a red vs blue issues where everything is grey and angry.

          No there is a whole lot more, but as I said the FBI has it all so nobody filmed is protected from anything.

            Well someone is being protected from the public, its not like the FBI has been terribly effective so far in this matter.

              What are you talking about? Theyve made over 500 arrests and have won every case they’ve brought to court.

                No one of consequence, and this move seems to show that there are still people to prosecute. This has been one of the lightest punished insurrection attempts in the world.

                  Soo the FBI has identified, arrested and jailed most of the people perpetrating violence that day. The DOJ has indicated the ring leaders. However, you think there are peo0le of consequence left? OK, I’m done here.

                    Well there was that one guy who held rallies telling people to storm the capital, but I guess no one in politics counts. Watching this from outside is fascinating.
