VIDEO PROOF: Nancy Pelosi's head of security LIED about January 6
David Lazarus was Nancy Pelosi’s head of security on January 6, 2021, and his testimony was key in the prosecution of several defendants.
However, Capitol CCTV footage can now be released to the public that appears to prove Lazarus lied in court about where he was on that fateful day.
Lazarus was initially brought in to corroborate the account of another Capitol police officer, Harry Dunn.
“So, Lazarus was brought in to corroborate Harry Dunn’s perjury,” Sara Gonzales says, noting that his lies “were used to put innocent people in prison, ruin their lives, ruin their family’s lives.”
Investigative journalist Steve Baker has been leading the charge in exposing what really happened on January 6, and at this point, he believes that this was all “allowed to happen.”
“I’ve harvested a day in the life of Harry Dunn from the Capitol CCTV video, and I can’t corroborate anything that he has said that he did that day that made him the hero of the day, that gave him the privilege of earning a Congressional Medal,” Baker explains.
“And now he’s running for Congress,” he adds.
As for whether or not Baker believes the “insurrection” was orchestrated, he definitely doesn’t believe it was all spontaneous.
“There were absolutely, irrefutably, agents provocateur in the crowd. They were there. Who were they working for? I don’t know,” Baker explains.
While the Capitol Police didn’t “draw first blood,” the provocateurs did. Then, the police allowed them in the building.
“There’s the video of the cop squirting a little tear gas canister at the first two guys coming through the window instead of drawing her weapon. I have never quite reconciled myself with that,” Baker says.
“It was allowed to go too far.”

Speaker vows to release the J6 tapes, but what does that process actually look like?
It’s about time the public hears the truth about what happened on January 6, 2021, and according to House Speaker Mike Johnson, that time is nearing.
Investigative journalist Steve Baker, who has seen and analyzed the tapes himself, joins Steve Deace to explain how this process will likely play out.
“How much footage is the speaker vowing to release, and under what kind of a timetable are we talking about here?” Deace inquires.
“He's talking about releasing about 95% of [the footage],” says Baker. “Now what's the other 5%, and what makes that nefarious? Nothing – it's the secure areas of the Capitol,” such as the hidden staircases, doors, and passageways where “members under threat of an emergency would … escape.”
As for the timeline, Baker says that “there's a lot of misconceptions “ about an “early release” floating around.
As of last Friday, “only 90 hours” of footage were posted on the House Administration Committee's website, and the reason for that is because “that is the 90 hours that have already been cleared by security review.”
As for the rest of the 40,000 hours of footage, it will be a “monumental task on behalf of these congressional staffers and aides,” says Baker.
According to one senior aide Baker spoke to, “they're thinking about hiring a company to come in and handle this for them.”
“So this is going to take many months for the speaker's promise to release this to the public to finally be fulfilled.”
“How confident are you that they're going to follow through with this to the end?” asks Deace.
“I am confident because, as you know, I've had direct communications with Speaker Johnson” and other “congressional contacts,” says Baker, “and we know that this is going to happen.”
