GOP “Tours” Pre-Capitol Attack – Proved Unfounded

GOP “Tours” Pre-Capitol Attack – Proved Unfounded

  19 Mar 2021  

Despite Democrats’ claims to the contrary, no investigation into the Capitol attacks has yielded any evidence that GOP lawmakers were conducting “tours” of the Capitol the day before the riots.

It has been several months now since House Democrats accused “unnamed Republican colleagues” of aiding the Jan. 6 rioters by providing them with so-called “reconnaissance tours” of the U.S. Capitol before the siege. However, no proof has come to light to back up any such claims.

Media outlets are reporting that federal prosecutors are still “requesting video” from Capitol authorities in an effort to ascertain if any such “recon tours” took place in the days leading up to what the left has labeled as an “insurrection.”

Even Fox News has said that “a well-placed source familiar” with the inquiry has said that the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia is still actively investigating allegations that members gave Capitol tours to rioters on Jan. 5. and other days leading up to the now-infamous Capitol riots. The source says that as part of that investigation, the DA has asked for additional video that might show said tours, yet, to date, no such footage has surfaced.

Fox said that the Department of Justice and FBI declined to comment.

But lawmakers on Capitol Hill have raised concerns about the unsubstantiated allegations – with one saying any speculation is “dangerous.”

“There was never any name. There was never anyone who anyone saw do something to have the charge of basically running reconnaissance tours leveled against them,” said House Administration Committee ranking member Rep. Rodney Davis, R-Ill. “I think it’s part of the problem we have around here, that there will be accusations leveled and the media discusses those accusations, but we don’t ask the simple question – who are they talking about? We can’t speculate because that’s a very dangerous place for anyone to be.”

In late February, Rep. Tim Ryan, D-Ohio, the chairman of the House subcommittee with oversight authority over the Capitol Police, told reporters the matter was “in the hands of the U.S. Attorney here in DC…They are reviewing the footage.”

But, where is the “footage?” Nowhere apparently.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., in January, also suggested Republican members of Congress could face criminal prosecution if they assisted rioters in the attack on the Capitol on Jan. 6.

But, again, no evidence has yet to come forward to back up such outrageous claims.

Meanwhile, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia is also investigating the hundreds of U.S. Capitol rioters. Authorities have charged more than 300 people, and at least another 100 are expected to face charges.

The FBI is still actively seeking information and ask you to call 1-800-CALL-FBI (1-800-225-5324).

  1. More Media and Democrat lies. Does anyone ever get called on this BS. By the time these ridiculous charges are investigated and found false, the Dems are on to a new story created by the Media. Pelosi’s theatrics are destroying the country. Does no one care any more?

  2. I wouldn’t trust any FBI information. They are worse than the Media at creating BS stories, then lying about it under oath. Sad about a once-proud law organization.

  3. In the real world when one makes unfounded accusations I automatically have to ask myself why. In the nearly six decades I’ve existed I’ve found typically the answer lies in the accusers mentality. Those who don’t trust often impose their mindset on others. For example a person accusers their significant other of cheating for no apparent reason. Almost always it’s because they themselves are or have in fact cheated. We can ascribe the old adage that “a great offense makes the best defense”, but in the end it really comes down to how that accuser thinks. I have seen the same in business deals. While the accusers are absolutely positive others are out to take advantage it’s simply due to the fact that it’s exactly how they themselves would act. This goes to the core of who these people truly are and they simply cannot be trusted as they cannot trust themselves. What a very sad existence it must be for people who think and feel this way. Never knowing a truly personal relationship with absolutely trust.

  4. Quite frankly, I’m tired of the manipulations and lying manuverings of Pelosi, Schumer and the going along with, Democratic Party. Hilary is responsible for the fake Russia collusion against Trump, Warren once said of Trump, “he ain’t seen nothin yet” this was about two or less months into his presidency ..
    They, the Dems are lying, crying, whining, abusive , deception-ridden bunch of 3 year olds after world power and you need to disband them now. Interview for a New Democratic Party maybe.

    1. They might be the qanon group also : can’t accept the truth that our votes were stolen: so they prepared for the platform which stands for socialism and communist agendas under the democracy embrace. They want to dictate a new constitution called apologize: for we’re not a republic for which it stands one nation under GOD indivisible with liberty and justice for all but a global station with socialists communist agendas under the democracy embrace.

  5. No proof while the investigation is ongoing? Instead of pushing propaganda that “there’s no proof ” you should add “that the public has seen since the investigation is still going on.” Look forward to your commentary when the investigation is completed and facts are given to the public.

  6. Of course democrats can’t name anyone. Just another accusation Democrats can’t prove. Isn’t the biden voter sick of all the broken promises, chaos, racism, elimination of jobs, raise in taxes, hundreds of thousands of illegals getting free pass and you pay for all the free schitt. Humiliation from China and a challenge from Putin doesn’t register with leftists. 3 months and democrats have turned America into an Idiocrecy.
