Twitter boss Elon Musk has joined the growing calls demanding the release of Jacob Chansley, the Jan. 6 prisoner dubbed “QAnon Shaman” by the media.
Chansley, one of the most photographed people at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, has become a poster boy for the Democrats’ fabricated “violent insurrection” narrative.
After being hit with felony charges for entering the Capitol building, Chansley was sentenced to four years in prison for “obstructing an official proceeding.”
Despite there being no evidence that he had acted violently, the Democrats and their corporate media allies smeared Chansley as a leader of the so-called “attack.”
However, following Tucker Carlson’s explosive reporting on the previously unseen security footage from Jan. 6, this “violent insurrection” narrative has been completely eroded.
Newly released footage shows Chansley urging the crowd to remain peaceful.
In one instance, Chansley is seen telling a crowd of Trump supporters to “obey our president” and “go home.”
People can be heard agreeing with Chansley and shouting “respect the Capitol.”

On Friday evening, Musk responded to the video by tweeting: “Free Jacob Chansley.”

Musk then doubled down on his comments by sharing a video of Chansley calmly walking around the Capitol with police officers.

“Chansley got 4 years in prison for a non-violent, police-escorted tour!?” Musk commented,
“Dave Chapelle was violently assaulted on stage by a guy with a knife,” Musk reasoned.
“That guy got a $3000 fine & no prison time.”

Musk’s acknowledgment of the unjust imprisonment of Jacob Chansley is a huge victory for the Jan. 6 political prisoners.
Previously, the Jan. 6 prisoners have been, for the most part, ignored or demonized by people in high places.
