Some of the initially released video showed non-violent protesters moving freely through the Capitol with Capitol Police monitoring the situation, but seemingly not too concerned.
These videos stand in stark contrast to the footage the Jan. 6 Committee and the legacy media aired on a loop for public consumption.
Johnson said one of the reasons he is releasing the footage is that it may provide exculpatory evidence to those facing Jan. 6 charges.
Axios reported, "Jan. 6 defendants and victims can request access to the withheld footage if it was not made available by prosecutors, contains exculpatory evidence and will be used in their legal cases but not shared publicly."
Several accused Fox News host Tucker Carlson of cherry-picking Jan. 6 surveillance video footage in March of 2023 after then-House Speaker Kevin McCarthy gave him access to it.
"The footage does not show an insurrection or a riot in progress. Instead, it shows police escorting protesters through the building," Carlson said.
"Taken as a whole, the video record does not support the claim that Jan. 6 was an insurrection. In fact, it demolishes that claim," he concluded.
