The Daily Signal - The Other Side of J6: ‘Capitol Punishment’ Movie Tells Stories You Won’t Hear From Congress

During the month of June, lawmakers in Washington plan to hold six public hearings on the events that took place on January 6. Two of them are even scheduled during primetime TV in an effort by Democrats to maximize their attempt to frame what happened that day at the U.S. Capitol.

But there’s another side to the story that you won’t hear from the likes of Reps. Bennie Thompson, Adam Schiff, Liz Cheney, or other members of the House select committee. They determined long ago who to blame and what narrative to tell.

Now, thanks to a new documentary called “Capitol Punishment,” Americans are able to hear stories from the people who were there on January 6—in their own words and the ordeals they’ve faced since that day.

Joining "The Daily Signal Podcast" are two people who made the movie—actor Nick Searcy and director Chris Burgard.

The movie is available to watch at givemelibertynow.org and capitolpunishmentthemovie.com.

Consider This from NPR - Looking Back At A Life In Limbo

Some immigrants never look back. Some spend their lives look back. All Things Considered Senior Producer Miguel Macias has done both.

For the last decade, Macias has documented his life as an immigrant from Spain. His story of migration, of being in limbo is, in some ways, unique, but also similar to that of many immigrants. Over the years, he has wondered time and time again about his decision to leave his country, and whether to return one day.

In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment to help you make sense of what's going on in your community.

The Intelligence from The Economist - Base motives? China in the Pacific

The country has just one foreign military base, but there are fears it wants to dot the Pacific region with more—and that is, so far, proving tricky. With ties between Western and Russian scientists severed, decades of research in the Arctic, particularly on climate change, are at risk. And a new series further unpicks the mythology of punk music.
