Political Wire: “The Jan. 6 select committee is in possession of documentary footage showing a man who took part in a Jan. 5 tour of the Capitol complex with Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-Ga.) outside the Capitol the following day, yelling threats at members of Congress – including Speaker Nancy Pelosi – as the insurrection raged,” Punchbowl News reports.
“The select committee has video of this person taking part in the Loudermilk tour on Jan. 5, as well as documentary footage of the same man outside the Capitol on Jan. 6.”
But Political Wire also recently shared this story this week:

“Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) led a group of 12 people through a Rayburn House Office Building on January 5 2021, a group that later “grew to 15 people,” Politico reports.
However, CNN reports that U.S. Capitol Police have concluded after reviewing security footage that “there is no evidence” it was a reconnaissance tour with Trump supporters trying to learn more about the Capitol complex the day before the deadly January 6 insurrection.”
