The Untold Story of the Women of January 6

By: Jack Cashill

Narrated by: Jack Cashill

The real question is not why thousands of women went to Washington on January 6. The real question is why the rest of us did not.

Unlike the women who descended on Washington in 2017 to protest the inauguration of President Trump, the women of January 6 did not come as women. They came as Americans, as patriots, as defenders of the republic. They did not wear pink hats. They wore MAGA hats. Their issues were indistinguishable from those of the men in their lives—the rule of law, free and fair elections, and the preservation of constitutional rights. They brought no laundry list of special needs like, say, “reproductive rights,” because they understood that no one was challenging their right to reproduce. In fact, many had reproduced abundantly.

There was not a single celebrity in their midst—no Ashley Judds, no Gloria Steinems, no Madonnas threatening to “blow up the White House.” These were Hillary’s “deplorables” in the flesh, a whole heaping basket of them, “irredeemable” to the last woman. On January 6, the very presence of these intrepid women at the Capitol so offended the natural order of things that many would be gassed and beaten. Two would never return home.

If resistance to government oppression has a face, it is that of Air Force veteran Ashli Babbitt, a determined patriot and an enduring martyr. This is her story, and that of the other gallant women of January 6.

Better narration could have elevated

Chock full of good detail, very well researched. I just wish for better narration. Jack Cashill reminds me of Brian Kilmeade in this regard. I'm not a writer so I'm not critiquing their craft or even comparing them. Only the choice to narrate their own book vs. hiring a professional narrator. IMHO

Great storyteller and solid research

One of the reasons I keep coming back to Jack’s books is because he is such a solid storyteller AND a solid researcher. He digs in and gets the facts right, and then shares the story in a manner that’s hard to put down. I always appreciate his search for truth, no matter where it leads.

So interesting!

Well written. Too bad the media will ignore. I pray everyday for these Jan 6 defendants.

Well done

Information everyone should know and very much know and appreciate If so many people remain ignorant all of our freedoms are in jeopardy!

Great book

Well written and eye opening for anyone interested in the true story. Well performed but I kept on thinking that Mr Cashell sounded just like Howard Kurtz who I can’t stand!!
