    Lol these videos were obtained using FOIA. Anyone is free to do the same. They are under no obligation to do anything. They can blur whatever they want. The original evidence is still with the state department.

    These videos were obtained using FOIA. Its already evidence the DOJ has, they literally obtained the current evidence that the state department already has and have shared it. They can blur whatever they want.

    Never said they couldn't blur whatever they want. The only reason to blur faces is to hide their identity. Only reason to hide their identity is because the video shows them breaking the law. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Evidence is already submitted and analyzed. If you want to get the video and show faces feel free. If rachel Maddow wants to do so , feel free.

    The ominous dog whistle Johnson used in openly suggesting participants in the riot should be protected from possible arrest by the DoJ was meant for Don and his enablers. A man charged with enforcing the rule of law by virtue of his role as Speaker openly advocated for the identity of lawbreakers to be hidden from the view.

    Things like this are not unique in the error of Trumpery. Be prepared for more as Repubs continue to turn the narrative about 1/6 on its head.

    If that’s the case then there should be no need to blur faces. Think about it. Question everything. Stop being a blind follower.

    LOL what a bunch of malarky. The evidence has already been reviewed by the DOJ, and obtained via FOIA. Nothing to be done from Johnson.

    Right, how about lawsuits? Think about it. Question everything. Stop being a blind follower.

    So holding people legally accountable for their choices, decisions and actions is now 'full fascist'?

    The Democrats are NOT "criminalizing political disagreement".
    The Jan 6 rioters are being prosecuted under NON political statutes. It wouldn't matter if they did what they did trying to overthrow an election or trying to get Congress to pass a Constitutional Amendment protecting the right to an abortion. It's the ACTIONS that has them in hot water, not their political views.

    Same with Trump. He is being prosecuted for NON political crimes.

    My guess is that he is sending this message, primarily, to Trump.

    Why do you think he said the identity of rioters should be hidden from the view of the DoJ?

    We have to blur some of the faces of persons who participated in the events of that day because we don’t want them to be retaliated against and to be charged by the DOJ.

    No clue, don't care. Maybe he's just an idiot? Maybe he thinks this being back in the news again will pressure them to act. Who knows?

    I suggest you take your own advice. Trump supporters love to make false comparisons between the BLM riots and the 1/6 riot. What if Nancy P said she wants video of the BLM riots to blur the faces of those the DoJ may be trying to identify?

    Don't care? That sums it up nicely. When the Repub Speaker says something outrageous just avert your eyes.

    What lawsuits are you referring to? Did Johnson state lawsuits is the reason he wants to blur faces?

    oh you want to compare the BLM riots to 1/6. 1 person died Jan 6. A woman shot by a cop.
    20 people died during just one BLM riot in Minnesota. 20!

    Which one do democrats focus on, why? Which one did you focus on, why?

    Lawsuits from people that could be wrongly targeted if not blurred by rabid liberal media and liberals in general. Think about it. Question everything. Stop being a blind follower.

    The more logical train of thought would be..............he's FOS and is just giving cover and chafe. All logic would dictate that the FBI, DHS would already have the tapes. Unless, of course, he thinks Trumper's might turn in a few of them....

    We don't need to.

    anyone who refers to themselves as The law and order party isn't.

    It's just like when Trump brags he knows more about everything than you do, he doesn't.

    They definitely have the tapes, as these tapes were obtained via FOIA. FOS could be the case too. House republicans have been a S***show.

    Has media and liberals in general wrongly targeted people from all of the original footage we’ve all seen? If you claim yes, please provide your evidence of such.

    No they can't.

    See many times the FBI finds out who the culprit is when somebody calls in after recognizing a face from a publicly released video It's the whole reason for the most wanted posters, so it's still accessory or obstruction

    Actually, I don't. It's a specious analogy. Nice job ignoring the point I made. You have a noticeable habit of not responding to questions that make you uncomfortable.
