DC Police Department Wants over $1.5 Million for January 6 Police Bodycam Footage.

Judicial Watch filed June 2024 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia after the Metropolitan Police Department denied an August 2021 FOIA request (Judicial Watch v. District of Columbia (No. 2024-CAB-003453)). Judicial Watch is asking for:

All audio/video recordings captured on body-worn cameras from MPD officers during their response to protest activities in and around the Capitol Building on Jan. 6, 2021; and

All body worn camera video captured by Washington, DC, Metropolitan Police Officer Michael Fanone when responding to protests at the Capitol Building on Jan. 6, 2021.

The DC Metro Police initially rejected Judicial Watch’s request because, it claimed, the videos were, at the time, “part of an ongoing investigation and criminal proceeding.”

But since President Trumps pardons of January 6 defendants, the DC government will make public the videos (supposedly containing over one thousand hours of footage) if Judicial Watch agrees to pay over $1.5 million.

“There never has been a legitimate reason to withhold the January 6 police bodycam videos,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “If they wanted the videos out for political reasons, they’d be public, but instead the DC government wants more than $1.5 million in order for the public to view its January 6 videos.”

President Trump celebrated a major political victory with his SOTU speech; however, Dems took yet another devastating hit. Their situation is getting dire, and more people are starting to notice what’s being called the “80/20 problem.”

Even Brit Hume—a well-known Trump critic—couldn’t deny the reality. He summed up President Trump’s night perfectly: If you ever doubted that Donald Trump is the political colossus of our time and our nation, this night and this speech should have put that to rest.

The Americans who tuned in felt “hopeful” and “proud.” According to this CBS poll, they also saw President Trump as both “presidential” and “unifying.”

Every poll confirmed it—the American people liked what they saw.

What are the Dems resisting? Law and order, a secure border, no more endless wars, ending fraud and waste? Nobody knows, not even the Dems. Democrats have a massive problem—they’re pandering to the unhinged 20 percent while the other 80 percent look on, wondering where common sense and sanity went. This is the infamous 80/20 problem, and its exactly why President Trump won in a landslide in 2024.

Trump planted his flag with the 80 percent on every major issue. The Democrats, meanwhile, bet everything on the radical 20 percent—and they lost big.

It’s very clear to see that Dems have an 80/20 problem—a massive gap that spells big trouble. But the real issue is that they don’t even seem to realize it. Instead, of course-correcting, they’re doubling and tripling down on the insane 20 percent.

Thanks to Sean Duffy, the Hurricane Damaged I-40 in North Carolina is Already Open Again – Pete Buttigieg Claimed it Would Take ‘Months or Even Years’.

The I-40 in North Carolina was heavily damaged during Hurricane Helene, which was a huge problem as it’s a major road.

The Biden administration ignored many of the problems in North Carolina after the storm, leaving people sleeping in tents in winter. Who can ever forget FEMA under Biden, avoiding homes that had Trump signs in front of them?

When it came to the I-40, Biden’s transportation secretary Pete Buttigieg said it would take months, maybe even years to fix it.
