The House committee investigating the attack on Jan. 6 has released footage tied to a tour Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-Ga.) gave the day before, showing a man taking photos of hallways in the Capitol complex before ultimately attended the rally itself.
Loudermilk has acknowledged showing a small group of constituents around House office buildings the day before the attack, but claimed those participants “immediately turned back” once they saw the “chaos” developing at the rally.
But video shared by the committee claims one of the men was at the riot, showing clips of the unnamed man marching toward the Capitol the morning of Jan. 6
“There’s no escape Pelosi, Schumer, Nadler. We’re coming for you. We’re coming in like white on rice, for Pelosi, Nadler, Schumer even you AOC, we’re coming to take you out, and pull you out by your hairs,” the man says, referring to several Democratic leaders and lawmakers.
Loudermilk was subpoenaed by the committee in May alongside four other lawmakers, but has thus far failed to comply with the compulsory order for testimony.
His office did not immediately respond to request for comment.
In some respects, the footage affirms Loudermilk’s description. The video shows him leading a handful of people through different tunnels underneath the Capitol, but they never reach the main building.
The man can be seen taking photos throughout the tour. It’s move that alarmed some Democrats after the events of Jan. 6 who feared some lawmakers may have lead “reconnaissance tours” through the Capitol, allowing rally participants to better understand the different passageways that lead into the building.
But the footage is a departure from how Loudermilk described the actions of the group he gave a tour too.
In an interview given on Jan. 6 as the attack was unfolding, Loudermilk referenced that he had “about a dozen people up here” when asked if he had a chance to talk to any of those involved in the rally.
“They definitely were peaceful people, people that we met at church, they were supporters of the president, they just wanted to be up here as if it was another rally. We’ve actually checked on them to make sure they are safe,” Loudermilk said in an interview with Georgia-based WBHF.
“They saw what it was turning into and they immediately turned back down the mall to get away from the crowds here,” he added, noting that some rally goers came with the intention of creating “chaos.”
