Yes. You read that right. Johnson is saying that he is intentionally hiding insurrectionists from prosecution in the release of tapes that Republicans claim will vindicate them on January 6th.

    This is the dumbest part about this whole thing. It’s just grandstanding.

    Edit: He’s already recanted it. Instead saying they are blurring to protect their identities from the public.

    Meanwhile, any little suspect from small time crime gets their face plastered all over local news anyways.

      Only if they’re black or hispanic. There’s a narrative to push, don’t you know.
