House Speaker Mike Johnson plans to release thousands of hours of footage from the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack, fulfilling a promise he made to far-right members of his party during his campaign.
The release will provide the public, media, and other organizations the opportunity to see the events firsthand, rather than relying on government officials' interpretation.
Around 90 hours of security footage will be released initially, with the rest expected to be posted over the next few months, giving the general public access to explicit footage of the attack.
