TL;DR Summary

A video showing a Capitol rioter fist-bumping police has sparked questions about the events of January 6, 2021. House Speaker Mike Johnson announced the release of the complete archive of Capitol riot security footage, with short clips raising concerns. Some social media users questioned the actions of the police, suggesting entrapment or a contradiction to the narrative. However, the Republican Accountability Project accused Johnson of using selective footage to whitewash the events. The bipartisan House select committee held Trump responsible for the insurrection, and he has been indicted on four counts related to the Capitol riot. Trump has pleaded not guilty and claimed the case against him is politically motivated.
