The Attorney General’s Outrageous January 6th Lie

5 Jan 2022

BUCK: We got Attorney General Merrick Garland talking right now about Jan 6th live. Let’s go to it for a second and see what he’s saying.

GARLAND: …defended and secured the Capitol that day. They demonstrated to all of us and to our country what true courage looks like. Their resolve, their sacrifice, and their bravery protected thousands of people working inside the Capitol that day. Five officers who responded selflessly to the attack on January 6 have since lost their lives. I ask everyone to please join me in a moment of silence in recognition of the service and sacrifice…

BUCK: Okay. Okay. All right. All right. All right. Oh, my God!

CLAY: First of all, when you are the attorney general, I hold you to a higher level — and maybe I shouldn’t even do this. But I hold you to a higher level of factual accuracy. No one died, Buck. They have not been able to connect at all. Even though the media tried to obfuscate and confuse us and make it seem the case, no one died directly who was a police officer because of January 6th. Right?

They have tried to make it seem that that is the case, but when you look at the autopsies, when you look at the reports to all the media that have later come out to correct it. You notice what Merrick Garland there said? Five people have died “since” the January 6th incident. The only person to die on January 6th violently… Now, there were some people who were aged, and I think had heart attacks or had medical related conditions who were involved in the protest and in the riot.

But Ashli Babbitt was the only person who died in the Capitol as a direct result of what took place on January 6, and she was shot and killed by a Capitol Police officer. So what you’re seeing there from Merrick Garland was she seeking, the attorney general of the United States, the person that Barack Obama wanted to put for life on the Supreme Court, is an intentional misrepresentation. We talk a lot about misinformation and disinformation. That is an intentional misinformation. That is designed to make it appear that five Capitol Police officers died of a result of January 6.

BUCK: I also remember — because it happened in my own neighborhood — when third party marauding bands of Biden-loving bureaucrats under the banner of BLM which — of course, as we know — didn’t do anything good for the country and actually made the country less safe and a whole lot more people were killed as a result of the pullbacks and support the police. I remember when the same mainstream, so to speak — I hate that term — legacy lib media anchors were saying, “This is what happens when people are angry.”

“Who says protest peacefully?” Former CNN anchor Chris Cuomo with former governor of New York, Bro Cuomo, not able to get a handle on things in New York City during these riots? Clay, there were federal officers who were being intentionally blinded on a regular basis with laser out in Portland by Biden voters. Now, they did get their sight back, but would anyone else want to try the laser-in-the-eye thing and see how they feel about it?

Go blind for a few hours in an eye and see if you think that that’s fun? They were having cinder blocks thrown at them. They were having pepper spray in their faces. Now, that’s all bad. The only time I’ve ever seen Democrats outraged about violence against police is this one day. The rest of it is, “People are oppressed and they’re angry. Sorry. Cops have to suffer.”

CLAY: What distinguishes us from many people in the media, Buck, is we’ve argued that people who riot — regardless of their political motivations — should be prosecuted. The difference here is, I’m not aware anybody who was involved in those “mostly peaceful protests” all over the country in the summer of 2020 which we still don’t really know where the money for the riots came from, where the organizational capacity came from. Nobody’s really been incorporated to a significant extent there.

And, by the way, I’m not aware of anybody still being held in solitary police confinement over the riots in the summer of 2020. In fact, most of the people who were arrested for that were let out with no charges filed. Democratic politicians raised money… Think about this for a minute: They raised money to defend anyone who was being arrested for those violent protests in the summer of 2020. Kamala Harris said, “I will give you money, so you get basically a get-out-of-jail-free card.” Imagine if Donald Trump responded to January 6th and said, “Oh, I’m gonna pay everybody’s court costs, everybody’s legal fees.” That’s what basically happened for many of these people arrested in the summer.

BUCK: We’ve seen who actually gets the… Wow, Merrick Garland is still going. Such a little hack. It’s so funny they try to say, “Oh, he’s so moderate. Let’s put him on the court. It’s a stolen Supreme Court seat!” Shut up, libs. But we have Kamala Harris during the riots in Minneapolis, as you point out, advocating for raising bail Monday because presumption of innocence. Let’s get them out on bail. Meanwhile, Kyle Rittenhouse, you advocate for bail for him if you’re a cop or you’re anybody? They destroy you. They fire you from your job.

CLAY: They show up at your house to report on you donating money to his defense fund!

BUCK: This is the fundamental separation that we see now throughout the system, and it’s particularly pernicious in our justice system where politics is being infused in all these decisions all the time. It is an absolute outrage. The fact that the ACLU doesn’t have its lawyers lying down in the street in D.C. in protest of what’s going on with the Jan 6 — and of course, we don’t expect them to because the ACLU is a left-wing hack organization.

But the people that claim that they care about civil liberties are absent on this. Why? Because the politics of the system tell them that you have to destroy everybody who, remember, are not even just the worst offenders on January 6th. There are people that were just there, present. It’s glorified trespassing, folks!

CLAY: I’d say this, too, about Merrick Garland. It’s particularly disgusting to me for someone to spend their entire career dreaming, probably, of being the attorney general of the United States, and then when you get there, being so terrified of what people in your own party are going to say that you aren’t willing to stand up and do what you believe is right. ‘Cause I do think this guy is not as much of a clown as he is having to behave like he is a clown because he’s terrified of his own Justice Department.

BUCK: Doesn’t that make him worse? Doesn’t that make him worse? He actually knows better.

CLAY: He’s feckless and pathetic and afraid, ’cause he’s an old white guy being targeted by his own administration, just like Joe Biden, honestly. It’s a disgrace.
