‘The Real Story of Jan. 6 Part 2: The Long Road Home’ was screened at the Capitol on Jan. 9, followed by a panel discussion.
WASHINGTON—Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) praised The Epoch Times’ new documentary exploring the events of Jan. 6, 2021, at the U.S. Capitol and their effects on American life.
The documentary, “The Real Story of Jan. 6 Part 2: The Long Road Home,” was screened at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 9 in an event hosted by Mr. Johnson.
The documentary is available online now for Epoch Times subscribers.
Released on the third anniversary of the “Stop the Steal” rally, the documentary is the long-awaited sequel to “The Real Story of Jan. 6.“
Both the original documentary and the sequel were researched and narrated by Epoch Times senior investigative journalist Joe Hanneman.
While the original documentary explored the events of Jan. 6, 2021, themselves, the sequel explores how the aftershocks of Jan. 6 have changed the United States.
Mr. Johnson extolled the documentary, saying it continued the process of trying to get answers to the many lingering questions about Jan. 6.
“We haven’t even begun to be told the full story, which means the truth about January 6,” Mr. Johnson said in his opening.
“They always say, ‘To the victor, go the spoils.’ The victor writes the history. And unfortunately, in November 2020, Democrats had the full suite. They’re the ones that had power, and they wrote the history of January 6.”
After taking control of both chambers of Congress and the White House, Democrats began to push the narrative that Jan. 6 constituted an attempted “insurrection” against the U.S. government.
This narrative of events was the one pushed by the now-defunct House Jan. 6 panel. This narrative left several questions—deaths, possible police misconduct, the role played by undercover law enforcement agents, and the Capitol’s general lack of security preparedness that day—unanswered.
“There are so many questions that haven’t even been asked, much less answered, to get the full story—to get the full truth,” Mr. Johnson said.
