‘A Lot of People Do Not Realize What Happened’: Panelists and Audience Members Share Their Stories A

Many are feeling the aftermath of the January 6th Capitol breach still to this day. It was the main topic of discussion at a panel hosted by our partners at the Epoch Times during the Conservative Political Action Conference. It's one of the nation's largest annual gatherings of conservative groups and voters. I spent the weekend at CPAC speaking with panelists and audience members following the discussion. They told me how January 6th changed their lives. It was very eye-opening. I didn't realize the extent of all of the, not only the incarcerations, but, you know, the individuals that have been arrested. A lot of people do not realize what happened, even though, like they said, they showed the video of Roseanne Boylan as his testimony, and the D.C. jury just doesn't care. And it's incredibly necessary that we have people like these people from the Epoch Times, these attorneys, these specialists, and these families that are willing to speak up and to fight back against what's happening. We had the attorney angle, we had the FBI whistleblower angle, we had Kash Patel, and then we had the family aspect of it. But ultimately, we had the investigative journalist on the panel that has shed light on the atrocities surrounding January 6th. It amazes me, even now, how many people are still in the dark about how many January 6ers are still sitting in jail that haven't even been convicted of a crime. When I speak about this at the many engagements that I go to, they look at me like in total disbelief. It's because our media isn't reporting on it. It's not reporting on it enough. Epoch Times is wonderful. They are constantly putting news out there about the January 6ers. It can be a fearful time. I mean, I lived that firsthand. Almost every day, I think, is today the day, or every night when I go to bed. Is tomorrow the morning an FBI SWAT team like I used to be on? Is that the morning they're going to come kick my door in? But even amongst that fear, you have to do what is right. Now let's take a look at a bit of that panel discussion that was going on earlier. Take a look. I was kind of stunned by this. He said, you know, the Epoch Times stands for vulnerable people. Vulnerable people of all sorts. And he said, you know, I wasn't totally sure about you guys until you decided to tackle January 6th. Because this was one of these issues that, you know, you're really not allowed to go there. The president acted preemptively. Now the documents are out. Mayor Bowser's letter shows her in writing refusing the National Guard. Nancy Pelosi's Capitol Police timeline and her chief of police reported in Black & White Inc. that she declined the authority of the National Guard. There's been no effort to examine the law enforcement response to the arrival of the crowd and what could have been done better or what was done wrong? No. The politicians need to know that this is not a losing issue. That people care about this and they want to see the truth win out. And maybe that will bring courage to more of them. But have hope because there are investigations going on and you will be hearing about more of them in the near future.
