(TeaParty.org Exclusive) – According to a report from the Western Journal, a new video seems to show Ashli Babbitt trying to stop a violent rioter from gaining access to the inside of the U.S. Capitol building during the riot that occurred on Jan. 6, 2021.
Just moments after this scene was captured on film, Capitol Police Officer Lt. Michael Byrd would fatally shoot Babbitt, a tragedy that not only could have been avoided with proper audible warnings being issued, but also if the officer at hand remained cool under pressure.
What’s even more infuriating is that there were several other instances of violence, including the situation that Babbitt was trying to defuse, yet she was the only person shot and killed during the chaos.
This new footage, however, raises a lot more questions about the shooting.
Tyler Hansen, an independent journalist, released the 25-second video clip on Tuesday.
A man who has been identified as Zachary Alam can be seen in the footage punching through a window in the Capitol as a nearby police officer took no action to stop him.
“Babbitt appeared to grab Alam’s backpack, causing him to turn and look at the 35-year-old veteran right before she delivered a punch to the middle of his face. As the impact sent his glasses falling, the camera shifted away from the encounter,” the WJ report said.
“According to Hansen, this was only seven seconds before Babbitt was fatally shot by Byrd while seemingly attempting to scale a hastily assembled police barricade. Footage of the encounter that preceded the shooting can be seen below,” the report continued.

The Justice Department arrested Alam on Jan. 30, 2021.
“A case document from the DOJ shows a mountain of charges against him, including several related to alleged assaults on police. While Alam is presumed innocent until proved guilty, video of the encounter likely will not do him any favors in court,” the report added.
Radical leftists have spent the last year vilifying Babbitt as some kind of wack-a-do homegrown terrorist, despite the fact she served her country in the armed forces, all based on the narrative they wanted to push in order to help conservatives look like crazed individuals bent on revolution.
They conveniently forgot all about Black Lives Matter and Antifa carrying out massive riots all over the country in 2020 apparently.
The new footage appears to prove that the young Air Force veteran was not there to participate in acts of violence or mayhem, but tried to actively stop the destruction from taking place.
Instead of backing down as the crowd grew more rowdy, she stood her ground and appeared to be totally shocked that the police were doing nothing to stop the rioters.
“I believe she saw their inaction as odd or off, and was ultimately confused as to what was happening,” husband Aaron Babbitt stated in an interview with The Epoch Times.
“She was a take-charge kind of person,” Babbitt added. “Her frustrations show that the cops who should’ve been taking charge — weren’t.”
While Democrats and Capitol Police are seemingly treating the case as closed, this new footage should make it clear that the general public has not been given the full story of what happened to Ashli Babbitt.

I said from the beginning of January 6th that the rioters were Antifa with their dark clothing and their aggression towards the police while Antifa torn down the barriers and breaking into the Capital through a window. The woman didn’t break the window a young man in dark clothes and something to destroy with in his hands broke the window. He than told her to go through the window, you know, ladies first. Than to find FBI infiltrated within the Antifa directing the rioters and a FBI guy openly yelling instructions to the crowd (not Antifa) to go to the Capital. And the people killed by the crush of the crowd resulted because the Capital police started spraying the crowd with gas and people tried to get away from the gas and couldn’t because they couldn’t see how to get through the crushing crowd all trying to get away. The people crushed to death have their deaths on the Capital police hands spraying the gas not the crowd. The crowds were there to stand behind Trump just like they attend Trump’s rallies, the Antifa and FBI were anti Trump and Pelosi is in charge of the Capital police and her own police. This was a setup by Pelosi and her FBI not our citizen’s making a rally trip to D.C.
Nasty Nancy Piglosi is as guilty or more than the murderer himself Lt. Michael Byrd who decided to KILL this American Air Force veteran for NO cause .
Chopper, I think you’re right. It’s was Pelosi’s party from the beginning. I read that early on she replaced some of the Capitol Police with her ‘own people’.
Charles Manson never pulled the trigger either …but we know the rest of that story .
Ms. Piglosi is just as guilty or more , it’s pass time for her to really “serve” the country…in prison !
