Actor/Director Nick Searcy’s film exposing the true events and aftermath of the January 6th protests will be aired three times on OANN on Thursday. After attending the January 2020 protests personally, and witnessing the actual events in question, Searcy partnered with filmmaker/producer Chris Burgard to bring the true story before the American public.

A press release from a Searcy spokesperson explains the purpose for the film, and why it has been criticized among the progressive set.

The groundbreaking documentary film, Capitol Punishment, is told through the eyes of the people who were there on the ground on January 6, 2021 in our nation’s Capital. The film shares with the world the true story of the events that took place. Everything that we are being told by the media is a lie and Americans are being persecuted to support that lie. The compelling documentary will air three times today on OANN. 

“This film destroys the J6 Committee’s false Insurrection narrative and blows away their treasonous agenda.” says Chris Burgard, the filmmaker. He adds, “January 6th was years in the making and the threat to the survival of America as we know it has never been greater.” 

Searcy’s team touts the film as the “true story” of what happened that day.

Searcy and Burgard’s film, Capitol Punishment, stands as a testament to a day of infamy in American history. Told through the eyes of the people who were there on the ground, Capitol Punishment shares the true story of January 6, 2021.
