The Cover-up Behind January 6th: NDAs, Capitol Police, and a Call to Action

Silenced Whistleblowers: Former Capitol Police Officer Tells America Mission, 'The Capitol Police Forced a Number of Capitol Police Employees to Sign NDAs after January 6th'

The Silent Keepers: How NDAs and Key Players Are Obscuring the January 6th Narrative

October 30th, 2023:

New disclosures claim that Capitol Police officers were forced to sign non-disclosure agreements (NDAs), raising new questions about the transparency surrounding January 6th. In an exclusive with America Mission, Former Capitol Police Officer Tarik 'TK' Johnson alleges these NDAs may hold more weight than previously released video footage, painting a disturbing picture of institutional cover-ups. Is Speaker Mike Johnson willing to demand accountability?

Unveiled from a recent discussion regarding the events of January 6th are questions surrounding non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) that were reportedly forced upon Capitol Police employees. Speaking with the America Mission Team, Former Capitol Police officer Tarik ‘TK’ Johnson blew another hole in the continually unraveling January 6th narrative.

TK: “A lot of capitol police officers could be and would be whistleblowers. A lot of the former employees and current ones, the Capitol Police forced a number of Capitol Police employees to sign NDAs.

You guys need to see what's in those NDAs. You guys gotta see it. Once you see what's in those NDAs, that's going to help probably even more than the video. So once, now this chief, along with the general counsel tied the bias, they're going to do everything that they can to never have those NDAs lifted because you can't have 'em lifted, and this narrative of J6 stay the same. Now, they did a lot of things to a lot of people on the Capitol Police that was employed with the Capitol Police. You guys need to see what's in those NDAs. That's going to help probably even more than the video."

If the revelations from Tarik 'TK' Johnson hold water, we may be witnessing an egregious breach of public trust. These NDAs would serve as instruments of narrative control, deliberately aimed at keeping potential whistleblowers within the Capitol Police Force silenced. Johnson stresses the importance of uncovering the content of these NDAs as a way to grasp the full scope of what unfolded on January 6th, even suggesting that they might be more telling than any video evidence available to the public. This adds another layer to what we understand as a complex situation rife with withheld information and obscure motivations.

However, that wasn’t all that TK revealed to us:

TK: “The Chief of Police is the only person that can lift those NDAs. So, the only person that can pressure the chief of police is the sergeant at arms. Or the chairman of the board, which will be a Republican and they can put pressures release. You guys gotta see those NDAs because obviously if you force people to sign NDAs that they won't talk about what really occurred on January 6th.”

This point is crucial. With Mike Johnson now elected as the new Speaker, if he wants Americans to trust him, he needs to release all of this information. This responsibility goes straight to the top of the Capitol Police department. TK continues to lay out how all of this worked, with Chief Thomas Manger at the helm:

TK: Now, the reason why J Thomas Manger is not fired now is because there has not been enough publicity to, and, and enough public outrage to have him fired. Now, most of you guys probably only here, never even heard of J Thomas Manger. Some of you guys probably never even heard of Yongananda Pittman. Pittman, was the chief of IICD on January 6th, and before leading up to it, she had vital Intel that January 6th was going to happen, and she sat on that intel.

So, with that being said, you would think she would be terminated. She wasn't. She was basically promoted after that. And after she left the department to go to California, Berkeley to get a salary over a quarter million dollars a year, Thomas Manger protected her, gave her the deal to be able to stay employed with the Capitol Police and go to California, Berkeley to get a salary from there over a quarter million dollars and protect her so she can get her pension.

The parallels between what former Chief Steven Sund told Tucker Carlson, and what TK reveals, offer a corroborative lens through which we can view the latter's claims. Sund's agreement with TK on Yogananda Pittman's role and subsequent 'promotion' lends significant credibility to TK's allegations. It suggests that there's a systemic problem within the Capitol Police, involving not just operational failures but potentially orchestrated efforts to shield those failures from public scrutiny.

However, what sets TK's revelations apart and adds an even graver dimension to this story is the assertion about NDAs being forced upon Capitol Police officers. While Sund's disclosures were alarming in their own right, he never touched upon this critical aspect of silencing potential whistleblowers within the force. If accurate, the use of NDAs could point to a concerted effort to manage the narrative of January 6th at the expense of transparency and accountability. It raises the stakes considerably, turning what could be individual failures or cover-ups into an institutional practice.

Following on the heels of these earlier revelations, TK makes another damning claim, taking aim at both Pittman and current Chief Thomas Manger:

TK: “Some of the whistleblowers contacted me, gave me information, and I couldn't believe Manger was a part of this. So now, and people need to know this, that Yogananda Pittman was the cause of January 6th. So, she was basically the leader of the setup of the people that they came to demonstrate and the police officers, because the police officers were set up too.

So, Pittman was the in charge of the setup. Manger is in charge of the coverup. So, he has to keep everything covered up. He has to keep the NDAs disclosed, and he has to keep the deal that he gave Pittman hit. So now if you list, listen to his last testimony. So, Manger is key. Once Manger goes, once he, if manger is forced out now, or even early January or February, the country in that seat, then he's going to release the NDAs.”

In the face of these serious allegations, a weak response would be tantamount to complicity. The January 6th narrative has been weaponized to cast a wide net over Trump supporters across the nation. It's a narrative that has not only justified mass arrests but has also fueled an ideological witch hunt that threatens the fabric of our democracy. If what TK, backed by Sund, alleges is true, then not only is this narrative dangerously flawed, but it implies that the FBI and other agencies have been acting with full knowledge that they are imprisoning individuals under false or manipulated pretenses. These actions would be an egregious abuse of power, impacting hundreds of lives and being used as a tool to delegitimize and potentially imprison a former President, Donald Trump, right before the crucial 2024 election.

In response, America Mission, has sent a letter to Speaker Mike Johnson. Urging him to take swift and immediate action. Johnson must confront Chief Thomas Manger without delay and launch an urgent, comprehensive investigation into these alleged NDAs. Failing to act would make him complicit in what appears to be a calculated and unjust targeting of American citizens, based on their political beliefs. It is time for true transparency and accountability, not only to rectify past injustices but to safeguard the very pillars of our democracy moving forward.
