If you look at the two cameras being used at the bottom of the screen....these are not $500-type cameras.
With the lens? I'd take a guess they were in the $3,000 to $4,000 range (as a minimum)....not the type that a regular guy would lug around.
So it begs the question....getting the ten-odd people to stand there and pose.....with the right photographers on hand? Planned ahead of time? I would suggest that.
Nancy Pelosi's daughter, filmmaker and journalist, was there with Nancy, filming a documentary on her mother Nancy and the insurrection. What a coincidence??!! I think not, it was all planned ahead of time, and orchestrated very well.
ReplyDeleteAny thoughts on the black Capital Police Officer Tarik Johnson, who wore a MAGA hat to blend in with the crowd on Jan 6. He was suspended for wearing the hat. Then later fired and lost his pension.
ReplyDeleteThere seems to be more video in the Memphis, Tyre Nichols case. A judge in Tennessee has blocked the release of some 20 hours of additional video and audio recordings of the beating death of Tyre Nichols by Memphis police officers in January.
ReplyDeleteOn the Memphis-Nichols situation, there were a fair amount of body-cam video from the police (some who arrived 30 to 60 minutes later to help keep the peace in the complex). Some of this probably is just confrontational material of the neighbors to the police action and of zero value to either prosecution or defense. Judge had to watch it and determine value. Body cam video just adds to complicated stories, and leads you to two or three different opinions.
ReplyDeleteOn Johnson/MAGA hat...ask yourself this...when has a cop (city, state, fed) ever removed his work-hat and put on a non-work-hat? Know any military people who would do this? It makes no sense unless he was under some 'demonic-spell' or got knocked in the head.
Whole 6-Jan thing needs a 're-do', with 3 teams: what was going on before the breech of the capital, what happened inside of the capital after the breech, and who gave what orders. My perception...their security detail (capital cops) are more like mall-cops...without a true plan for what was going to occur. Whole thing now seems like a failed Hollywood movie.
