Скачать или смотреть Archival January 6 footage - USCP Lt Tarik Johnson wears MAGA cap during Capitol siege

Editor's note: After a fresh, close look at my January 6 footage, I discovered something in the chaos I didn't know I captured: On the Capitol East side, Capitol Police Lieutenant Tarik Khalid Johnson is in my footage wearing a MAGA hat and shouting into a bullhorn.

In the clip before he is seen with MAGA cap, USCP Lieutenant Johnson can be seen entering with officers tailed by several Oath Keepers.

Footage by YouTuber Rico La Starza (   • Official video: Jan 6th Capitol Police Lie...  ) shows Johnson wearing the cap and asking for Oathkeepers' help moments earlier.

In my subsequent shot, Capitol Police Lieutenant Tarik Khalid Johnson can be seen wearing a MAGA cap and yelling into a bullhorn while leading several officers out of the building, followed by protesters.

Since the incident, Rico La Starza's footage went viral, and Lieutenant Johnson was suspended.

He has since claimed that he wore the MAGA hat to "win the trust" of the protesters and help extract officers who were trapped.
