(WATCH) Newly Publicized Video Shows Ashli Babbitt Punched Violent Rioter Seconds Before She Was Shot (VIDEO)
Ashli Babbitt was shot and killed in the United States Capitol during the January 6th protest last year. Babbitt, from San Diego and a veteran of the Air Force, was shot at even though she was unarmed.
The mainstream media and Democrats at the highest levels have vilified Babbitt as a “terrorist,” and they have not relented in their negative narrative of her.
On January 6th, independent journalist Tayler Hansen was in the United States Capitol, standing by, spectating the final seconds before she was shot and killed.
Hansen has posted videos of Ashli Babbit on Twitter, claiming that they demonstrate that she was not aggressive and that she was rather attempting to prevent others from engaging in violent behavior.
Hansen spoke on Good Evening San Diego with Ginger Jeffries of KUSI to talk about what he witnessed personally that day, as well as the difficulties he has had in getting his message out to the public.
Hansen and Babbitt were the first two persons to arrive in the Speaker Lobby doors, and they can be heard providing water to the officers of the United States Capitol Police.

However, according to Hansen, what occurs next “disproves what mainstream media and our government have created as the official narrative around Ashli Babbitt.”
A video posted by Hansen shows the scene inside the hallway before Babbitt was shot. The video shows Babbitt trying to stop a man who is identified as Zachary Alam from violently attempting to break a window into the Capitol. Babbitt is seen, on video, punching Alam and pulling him away from the window, discouraging his use of violence.

Hansen told KUSI’s Ginger Jeffries that Babbitt was “trying to disarm these people, trying to calm them down throughout this entire, kind of confrontation with these police officers.” He said that only seven seconds after Babbit attempted to subdue Alam’s violence, she was shot and killed.
Hansen said that the government had “co-opted a narrative that is completely inaccurate. They call Ashli Babbitt a terrorist, she served 14 years in the United States Air Force, she’s the farthest thing from that. She wasn’t violent a single time that day, the only time she actually raised her voice at cops was when she was yelling at them to call for help. But the media doesn’t want to cover that. The January 6th committee, they don’t want to get into any of that because it’s very inconvenient to their crafted narrative.”
