A San Diego veteran died defending the Capitol from chaos. Ashli Babbitt, a 35-year-old Air Force veteran, was shot by a plainclothes police officer while climbing through a broken window during the January 6 protests. New evidence suggests she may have been trying to stop an alleged agitator known as “Helmet Boy” moments before her death, raising questions about hidden provocations that day.
The officer who fired the fatal shot claimed self-defense but admitted he never saw a weapon. Bodycam footage shows Babbitt empty-handed as she attempted to enter the Speaker’s Lobby. Despite multiple investigations clearing the officer, leaked documents reveal internal Capitol Police concerns about his compliance with use-of-force protocols that fateful afternoon.
Babbitt’s family recently reached a settlement with federal authorities after years of legal battles. Their lawsuit argued Capitol Police failed to properly train personnel and ignored warning signs about the officer’s readiness. Critics note the quick dismissal of charges against riot participants while Babbitt’s case faced intense scrutiny.
Blaze Media’s investigation exposes troubling court biases in Washington, D.C., where judges repeatedly blocked key evidence from being presented. Reporter Joe Hanneman uncovered connections between “Helmet Boy” and far-left activist networks, suggesting coordinated efforts to escalate tensions that day. Federal probes into Zachary Alam and other alleged bad actors remain shrouded in secrecy.
Mainstream media continues pushing a false narrative about January 6 while ignoring provocateurs’ roles. The Capitol protest involved thousands of peaceful patriots alongside a handful of instigators, but only Trump supporters face persecution. Babbitt’s heroic military service contrasts sharply with the smear campaign against her memory.
This settlement marks a rare victory for justice amid Washington’s two-tiered legal system. While Democrat politicians demonize January 6 attendees, real questions about federal entrapment and evidence suppression go unanswered. Babbitt’s death symbolizes the regime’s willingness to destroy lives to advance their anti-conservative agenda.
Every American should demand transparency about what truly happened that day. The same government agencies quick to label parents as terrorists are protecting the shooter’s identity and stonewalling independent reviews. Until we get full disclosure, Babbitt’s sacrifice reminds us that truth remains the first casualty of political warfare.
Blaze Media’s ongoing investigation proves real journalism still exists outside corrupt corporate networks. As left-wing outlets parrot talking points, fearless reporters keep digging for answers. The fight for accountability continues – not just for Ashli, but for every patriot targeted by this weaponized administration.
