WASHINGTON DC—Greg Phillips and Catherine Engelbrecht of True the Vote published a documentary of the timeline of the breach of the U.S. Capitol breach that occurred on January 6, 2021. J6, True Timeline was produced by actual J6ers who were present. The film is packed with thousands of crowd sourced videos, hundreds of CCTV footage, and dozens of bodycam footage taken from police officers on the scene.
The production was released in time for the three-year anniversary of what media has referred to as the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. The events that transpired that day have become one of the most reported events in history.
Mass media has censored out so many facts and eyewitness accounts making it nearly impossible for Americans to know the truth about what happened that day. In Greg Phillips explained it best on the social media platform, Truth Social.
“When truths are cherry picked, people suffer.”
There has been so much traffic in this documentary that the only opportunity to view it was in the middle of the night or wee hours in the morning.
The crowds began to muster by 11:51 a.m. It is important to note that there were six other permits for events on Capitol grounds scheduled for the day.
Ryan Samsel can be seen in a black and white hoodie, and a red baseball cap is seen crossing the street. Plain clothes officer Michael Sherman is weeding through the crowd after receiving reports of a person with a gun. The individual is shown in the video. False alarm. No gun. “Only a knife.”
Video footage captured the moment U.S. Capitol Police officer, Caroline Edwards, was pushed to the ground, inciting rioters even more. Ryan Samsel helps Edwards back onto her feet. Side note-Ryan Samsel is later arrested, indicted, and held behind bars. Caroline Edwards, who was also sprayed with tear gas, testified in court.
“It was carnage. It was chaos. I can’t even describe what I saw. Never in my wildest dreams did I think that as a police officer, as law enforcement officer, I would find myself in the middle of a battle.”
At 12:00 Donald Trump takes the stage. He is speaking at the Ellipse, a 52-acre park south of the White House and approximately a mile from the U.S. Capitol building. The narrator relays that Trump supporters came out for what could be, “Their last chance to hear the President speak.” The crowds swelled all the way to the Washington Monument. Trump’s speech lasted approximately one hour and eleven minutes.

Medical examiners later listed Phillps cause of death as hypertensive atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. He died of a heart attack.
In his speech, President Trump spoke to the crowd about walking down Pennsylvania Avenue in a peaceful fashion.
“After this we are going to walk down to the Capitol, and I’ll be there with you, and we are going to cheer on our brave Senators and Congressmen and women to only count electors lawfully slated.”
Ray Epps, a man seen the night before instigating the crowds, is there at the Capitol urging people on. “As soon as President Trump stops speaking, we are going to the Capitol,” and
“We are going to the Capitol. That’s where our problems are.”
