💀 EXCLUSIVE: “Buried Alive” – January 6th Witness and Whistleblower Tommy Tatum Speaks Out After FBI Arrest, Homelessness, and Years of Government Harassment
Homeless. Hunted. Silenced. But Still Fighting to Expose the Truth They Thought They Could Erase.
🔎 SEO Summary Paragraph:
Independent journalist Tommy Tatum, who was nearly killed on January 6th and later arrested by the FBI, shares his powerful story of surviving government abuse, witnessing the death of Rosanne Boyland, and dedicating his life to exposing the truth behind January 6th. Now homeless and in need of urgent help, Tommy continues his work despite severe PTSD and personal hardship. This is a firsthand account of sacrifice, justice, and the ongoing battle for the truth the media refuses to tell.
I never imagined that telling the truth could cost me everything. But it has.
Since January 6th, 2021, I've dedicated my life to exposing the lies, coverups, and federal abuse surrounding that day. I was there. I lived it. I was nearly killed by Capitol Police. I watched Rosanne Boyland die beside me. And still, I refused to stay silent.
For over three years, I’ve published video evidence, spoken to congressional staff, testified in court, and given presentations in Washington, D.C. — all in the name of truth and justice for the January 6th political prisoners.
I’ve done it while completely unemployed, sleeping where I could, suffering from severe PTSD and anxiety, and trying to recover from injuries I sustained on January 6th. Right now, I have no home, no food, no medicine, and no money.
But I still have my voice.
And I’m asking for your help so I can keep using it.
🧱 The Pardoned: The Purged, Punished, and Forgotten
For Ashli and Rosanne — Who Paid the Ultimate Price.
You will forever be in our hearts as martyrs to truth and freedom.
They say we’ve been pardoned.
That January 6th is over.
That it’s time to move on.
But how do you move on when the truth is still buried—
and the people who buried it are still getting paid?
“The influencers forgot Rosanne. And the heroes who tried to save her.”
While grifters collect checks and influencers rehearse speeches, we live in trauma. We carry the memories. We live with the images they censor. We suffer while others monetize our pain.
The ones who truly fought for truth are not invited on panels. We don’t get ad revenue. We get ignored, shadowbanned, and left behind.
And yet:
“They beat Rosanne to death. Then they beat the truth to death.”
Rosanne Boyland didn’t die from a drug overdose. She died choking on gas, crushed beneath bodies, and then was beaten unconscious by Officer Lila Morris. That’s not conjecture. It’s on video.
She wasn’t the only casualty. Christopher Stanton Georgia. Matthew Perna. Patriots who didn’t survive their own pardons. Patriots who died from the stigma, the shame, and the stress of being targeted by their own country.
We’ve been pardoned — but we haven’t been heard. And most haven’t been helped.
“Without the plight of the January 6th defendants, and without those who built a support system around the survivors, there would be no Trump presidency today.”
We don’t want pity. We want justice. We want to be seen.
🕯️ Living With Ashli Babbitt’s Mother, Micki Witthoeft
In August of 2022, I moved to Washington, D.C. to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with those still brave enough to tell the truth about January 6th.
Micki Witthoeft, the mother of Ashli Babbitt — a fellow protester murdered in cold blood by Lt. Michael Byrd — took me in. I lived with her for months, and I can tell you firsthand:
“Micki is one of the strongest, most selfless patriots I’ve ever met. She turned her grief into action, and stood vigil every night at what became known as Freedom Corner — the sidewalk outside the D.C. Gulag.”
Together, we attended the nightly vigil outside the D.C. jail — every night, rain or shine, from 7–9 p.m. That small patch of sidewalk became holy ground — a beacon of hope, memory, and resistance in the middle of a city that wants us erased.
“We weren’t just standing for the J6ers behind bars. We were standing for truth itself.”
During that time, we met with countless members of Congress and their staffers, pleading for justice, begging them to look at the footage, to hear the testimonies, to see what had really happened.
Most ignored us. Some smiled and nodded. But none truly helped. And yet, Micki and I kept going.
“People ask what real patriotism looks like — it looks like a mother standing outside the D.C. Gulag night after night, demanding justice for her daughter.”
That time with Micki changed me. It deepened my resolve. It reminded me that our fight is spiritual, generational, and not something that ends in a news cycle.
🚨 The Crisis No One Talks About: J6 Needs Real Support
Too many J6 families are isolated. Too many warriors are unsupported. Too many truths are still buried.
We don’t need cliques. We don’t need grifters. And we don’t need opportunists chasing headlines while our people suffer, rot, or die in jail.
We need a real support system — one grounded in truth, faith, sacrifice, and discipline.
We need coordination, not confusion. Loyalty, not likes. We need a backbone, not a brand.
It’s time we build something new — something worthy of the people who gave everything that day.
⚔️ Why I Won’t Stop
I watched Rosanne Boyland die on the West Terrace while police beat her and left her to suffocate. I saw protesters try to save her as police attacked them with gas and batons.
I was arrested over three years later by Biden's DOJ and charged with a felony for civil disorder. Why? Because I yelled at police that day:
“I rebuke you in the name of Jesus.”
The FBI left out the fact that I was nearly killed. They left out that I had contacted them before and after January 6th about corruption, murder, trafficking, and fraud in Mississippi and D.C. They pretended they didn't know who I was, even though I testified in federal court.
I have hundreds of hours of bodycam footage. I’ve published it, analyzed it, and shared it freely to help January 6th defendants fight the DOJ machine.
“I know I am doing what God has told me to do. It’s the only thing I’ve ever been truly certain of.”
🆘 What I Need Right Now:
A place to live (I have about a week left where I am)
Medication and food
Mental health care for PTSD and anxiety
A doctor for physical injuries
Support to continue producing videos and evidence for J6 defendants and investigations
