New House Speaker Kevin McCarthy is promising to release all of the security footage from January 6th.
This is music to the ears of Trump supporters.
Nancy Pelosi and Democrats have flatly refused to do this for two years now.

Kevin McCarthy Pledges to Release All Security Footage from January 6 Capitol Riots
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) told reporters Thursday that he intends to release all the security footage from the January 6 Capitol riots.
“I want to be very thoughtful about it, but yes, I’m engaged to do that,” McCarthy told reporters when asked whether he would release footage from that day.
McCarthy continued:
I think the public should see what happened on that day. I watched what Nancy Pelosi did, where she politicized it. Where for the first time in the history as a Speaker, not allowing the minority to appoint to a committee. We watched the politicization of this. I think the American public should actually see what happened instead of a report that’s written on a political basis.

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), who led the charge against McCarthy during the numerous speakership votes, claimed that McCarthy promised to release the January 6 Capitol footage as one of his concessions to the anti-McCarthy holdouts. Gaetz told Charlie Kirk on Tuesday:
Kevin McCarthy told us he‘s going to get the evidence out in front of the American people, and that means releasing the 14,000 hours of tapes that have been hidden. That I think would give more full context to that day, rather than the cherry-picked moments that the January 6 committee tried to use to inflame and further divide our country.
This needs to happen.

Why do you suppose Democrats refused to do this?
We may soon know the reason.
