“The Real Story of January 6” revealed the truth that has been hidden from the American people. In this special edition live Q&A, we go into why it was important to expose the "insurrection" narrative and reveal the key events and witnesses that had been ignored.
We are also joined by Roman Balmakov, host of Facts Matter, and Joseph M. Hanneman, investigative reporter at The Epoch Times, to discuss what went into "The Real Story of January 6."
Hey, welcome back everyone. So today is a special episode, a day we normally don't hold it on.
We're going to have two special guests, Roman Balmykov, you might know him from Facts Matter,
also Joe Hanneman, who you know from our documentary, The Real Story of January 6th.
So this is a special episode and we're tiptoeing around some of the censorship on YouTube.
We're going to do a short episode on YouTube, but we will be doing a full episode on Epic TV,
and if you're on YouTube, we are completely opening up Epic TV for this episode because
they will block us and probably delete the video if we say too much. So join us on Epic TV. There's
no paywall, no subscription, no nothing today. You can watch this completely free, but we can't
talk about a lot of what I want to talk about today on YouTube. So we'll be doing maybe five,
10 minutes on YouTube, then we'll be jumping over to there. Again, it's totally open today.
So come join us. We're going to be showing some video footage about January 6th that I think has
not been shown publicly yet. We're also going to have some in-depth conversations about some of the
information that's being kept from the public. This is a very important episode, and so I'm
glad you're all here to join us. Now that said, I'm going to bring on our first guest, Roman
Balmykov, who worked on me with the documentary, The Real Story of January 6th. Again, the host
of Facts Matter. As you can see, I'm actually in Washington right now at our office in Washington,
D.C., and this is not a green screen. We're actually right by the Capitol Building.
Now, folks, again, right now we've published the full documentary, The Real Story of January 6th.
If you haven't watched it yet, please watch it. If you have watched it, please share that
documentary. Tell a friend about it. Really, we're trying to get the real story out, and if you've
seen it, or you want to see it, I think you'll know that really what the public has been shown
about this is a lie, just plain and simple. What the public has been shown about January 6th is an
absolute lie, and the scary part is, if you understand the history of what we call menticide,
mental genocide, it actually does follow a clear precedent that's been set both by, funny
of the Reichstag, and also under the Communist Party of China. What they did, for example,
following the Korean War, where they got people basically mentally tortured, they convinced them
that something that did not happen did happen, made them confess to false crimes, and then used
the accumulation of those false confessions to manufacture a false narrative. That false
narrative is then used as the foundation to make arguments, one, for the political campaigns
they want to launch, and two, for the takeover and the elimination of their adversaries through
the new party. Again, the Nazis did this play-by-play after the burning of the Reichstag.
The Communist Party of China did it, for example, by forcing confessions on prisoners of war during
the Korean War against Americans, convincing the Chinese people and using propaganda, saying
America wanted to launch germ war attacks on China. Unfortunately, the reality is the Democrats
are doing the exact same thing, play-by-play, with the January 6th incident, and I want to really,
again, tell the full story of what's happening. Again, and today I'm going to be showing you
actual video evidence of some of what we have. The documentary we have, The Real Story of January 6th,
is really the accumulation, I think, the consolidation of a lot of the evidence on that,
and so again, if you haven't watched it yet, be sure to check it out. All right, that said, let me
bring out Roman Balmykov. We'll go a bit into this, but then we'll be jumping over to Epic TV,
because again, YouTube, if we talk about January 6th too much, if I show you the videos, they will
delete our video, so we have to be a little careful on YouTube. We will be going just a few more
minutes on YouTube and then jumping over exclusively to Epic TV, so let's bring on Roman now for this.
Hey Roman, good to see you. Nice set you have there as well. Yeah, since I'm sure your
long-time viewers will notice that since you're in Washington, D.C., I get the privilege of being
here in your set in New York, and if anybody's wondering, the drink today is office coffee with
milk. Hey, I also actually have office coffee with milk today, a bit of a switch-up. Yeah, well Roman,
you know, you of course, you and I worked together on that documentary, The Real Story of January 6th,
and you did in particular the interview with Jake Lang, and I know you were talking to some
other people on the side as well. One thing that I'm kind of looking at is what a lot of people
are telling me, which is a lot of people claim that they've admitted to crimes that they believe
they did not commit, and they're doing it really because they're facing like 20 years in prison,
24 years in prison, some of them, and they're offered basically a plea deal on a slap on the
wrist charge, and some of them are not taking it. Was the story of Jake Lang, was he one of
those individuals, like what are you seeing with that? Yeah, that's one of the things that I asked
him about, because he was offered a plea deal already, but he decided to not take it, and I
asked him pretty specifically about it. I said, listen, Jake, you're about to face a jury
trial in Washington, D.C. come January of 2023. Those people are not likely to be too sympathetic
to you, right, because regardless of anything else, of course, it's a jury of his peers, but
Washington, D.C. voted something like 92% for Hillary Clinton, so generally the jury pool
might just not be that sympathetic to someone in Jake Lang's position, so I asked him,
why don't you just take the plea deal? I mean, it could be better than potentially facing
decades behind bars, and he said, well, I don't want to do that because I have faith in God,
that's what he told me, that I'm going to just state the truth during the trial,
have the judge hear it, have the jury hear it, and then it'll be in God's hands,
so that's what he told me, but on the flip side, I feel really sympathetic to not only him,
but the other J6 detainees who've taken the plea deal, because I mean, just really think about it,
and I hope the audience can really think about it as well. January 6th of 2021 was so long ago,
you could, since then, meet a girl, date her, get married, and have a baby all in that period
of time, right? That's how long ago that January 6th of 2021 was, just an example,
but that's how long these people have been sitting in prison for, and so when they're
offered a plea deal, and a lot of them are in solitary confinement, and so when they're offered
a plea deal, a lot of them just take it, because they're sitting in solitary confinement, they're
facing the prospect of a hostile, potentially hostile jury trial. It's, yeah, it's a tough
choice, it's a tough choice to make. Well, you know, that was one of the things that Steve Bannon
brought up, and Alan Dershowitz in particular, so you know, Steve Bannon, of course, he's being
charged with contempt, because he refused to go and testify before this congressional committee
that even is arguably unconstitutional in and of itself, because it's not technically bipartisan,
right? The Democrats refused the Republican appointees, and they chose two individuals
who basically vote with them, because they voted to impeach Trump. Technically unconstitutional,
although that needs to be argued, I think, more thoroughly, like maybe in court one day,
but Alan Dershowitz was arguing, and this is where it's going to be interesting with Bannon,
that basically, it's impossible to have an, it's impossible to have a jury pool that is not
poisoned. And the important part of that is, again, as you mentioned, it's like 92% voted
Hillary Clinton, maybe even more than that, maybe Democrat in general, I think they're saying like
98%, roughly in Washington, DC. And because this is such a deeply politicized issue, you're not
going to find any jury member who has not been, I think, exposed to information or, you know,
on one side or the other, that is, that has really altered their opinion ahead of time.
And in normal cases like that, where the jury pool is poisoned, where you can't have, you cannot
have really a fair trial before a jury, because they have predisposed kind of understandings and
beliefs, they will either move that out of state or find another solution for it. And so it's
almost impossible to have an honest, a really, I'd say an unbiased jury, and a fair trial with this.
And Roman, I know you were looking at some of this too. The other part of it too, just briefly,
Dr. Simone Gold, Brandon Strzok, you know, they both, of course, pled guilty. But both of them
have told us previously, and there's even video evidence to support it, that they believe they
were innocent on all charges. And they've said, you know, Dr. Simone Gold just went to prison
this last week. Brandon Strzok got off on a plea deal as well. Simone Gold, of course,
criminal trespassing, but they dropped like 20-year charges. They were accusing her of
assaulting police officers, other things like that. There was no video, there was no evidence
even submitted in the trial supporting those charges, meaning they pressed charges against her
without evidence, which even in itself is not normal, not normally something you could actually
do. And of course, Brandon Strzok had video evidence showing his innocence, and he still
pled guilty because he didn't want to face 20 years in prison. But, you know, what are your
thoughts on this, Roman? Well, I mean, you mentioned the case of Dr. Gold, who there was no
video evidence, but it seems like the prosecutors are getting creative even with the video evidence
that they have. I know you're about to have Joe Hanneman on this program in a bit, but he did
an amazing, he published an amazing article, I believe, just yesterday on the Epoch Times,
showing how there was a sheriff's deputy, his last name was McAbee, and at the appellate level
in the D.C. Circuit Court, the prosecution showed a video to the judge, which purportedly showed him
laying on top of a police officer, assaulting him, and allegedly, you know, pushing him towards the
quote-unquote terrorists, which is the name that they're giving to the riot, which is the name that
the judge in the case called the rioters, right? So the prosecution showed this videotape of this
sheriff's deputy laying on top of a police officer on January the 6th, and they use that as
the justification for saying he's a very dangerous man, you should lock him up, even pending trial
without bond. However, the article by Joe, it was just, again, this is what real journalism is,
he found the audio for that video, which was not played in court, and the audio shows this sheriff's
deputy, who was on top of the cop, saying, hey, I'm with you guys, I want to help you, I want to
protect you, let's not get up until it's time, you know, let's not get up until it's safe,
etc. He was saying things like that, because he himself is a law enforcement officer, he sees
what's going on, and he's trying to help the cop who's laying underneath him. But the prosecution,
they didn't show, they didn't play the audio, they only showed the video, which looks damning
until you play it in addition with the audio. So you had the examples of, you know, Dr. Gold
and Brandon Strzaka, but even when you have video evidence, the prosecution seems to be very
activist and very loose with the facts, such that they would actually do something like that, right?
So, I mean, maybe I'm naive, I always want to just assume the best of our judicial system,
but with examples like this, it's like, it's a little bit difficult to assume impartiality here.
And then going on the fact of, you know, having an impartial jury, it's tough. I mean, listen,
who in the country doesn't know about January 6th, right? It's like maybe some hermit in the mountains,
in the mountains of North Carolina or something, who's just going, you know, from cave to cave for
the last 30 years, doesn't know about it, but everyone's heard about January the 6th. So
it's a bit hard to get a jury who's not, you know, quote-unquote poisoned, but at the very least,
you would want to pull from a jury pool that has potentially kind of different ideological
bends so that they have a more robust view of the event, right? When you pull from a Washington,
D.C. jury pool, it's like, you know, like you said, 92% Hillary Clinton, I think it was something
like even 95% for Joe Biden. It's like, yeah, it's unfortunately, it does not seem like we'll get a,
well, they will get a fair trial, just like what we saw in the Durham case.
Well, on the note too, even on the video footage you mentioned,
so that guy, again, is being charged with assaulting a police officer. The prosecutors
show this video. They remove the audio during the video, but they also, in addition to removing
the audio, they also cut out the context. Basically, these two guys, you know, of course,
you look at January 6th, it was a bit police and protesters kind of mixed together. They actually
fell down, and the guy, of course, fell on the police officer, and he's like, okay, you okay,
you okay? And the audio, you okay? All right, we'll get up together. You know, I'll watch out
for you. Don't worry, I got your back. And he's telling this to the guy. They fell down together.
It's not like he tackled him or something like that. And then in the audio, he's, of course,
stating his intention. And the police officer is, of course, not, doesn't seem at all to be afraid
of him in any way. So it's ridiculous the way they're altering the evidence in order to make
their cases. And unfortunately, it's being used politically as well. All right, so we're going
to cut off on YouTube, because I want to show you, we actually have footage today I'm going to show
you. They will not let us show you this on YouTube. We're opening up. All right, so click on that
button below if you want to check out Epic TV. Yeah, so we're actually, we've pulled down the
paywall today. You can jump and watch us on Epic TV. No paywall, no subscription, no email.
Come join us, because I want to show you this evidence. And we cannot show you it on YouTube.
They will not let us show you it. They will delete our video if we show you it. We have
several clips I want to go over with you all today. So again, folks, go in the description
below, grab that link, join us on Epic TV. They will not let us show you the evidence on YouTube.
So come join us now. Epic TV will continue this discussion. All right, Roman, we are in the clear.
Enjoy, breathe the fresh air.
