The speaker claims that on January 6th, there was violence against the constitution, Congress, and the U.S. Capitol. They allege that they begged the President of the United States to send in the National Guard, but he refused. The speaker further claims that the president would not send in the National Guard when law enforcement people were being harmed, some of whom later died. They assert this inaction occurred during an insurrection that the president incited, which caused damage to those assigned to protect the capital and the constitution and to accept the results of the electoral college.

The speaker questions the legitimacy of the claim that Trump is an insurrectionist, stating that for this to be true, one must believe that the events of January 6th constituted a genuine attempt at taking over the government. They highlight that historically, there has never been an armed insurrection. The speaker mentions the presence of individuals like the man in a buffalo costume and suggests that the Capitol Police were the ones armed on that day. They imply that there may have been deep state intervention and note that Joe Biden considers Trump to be an insurrectionist.

Jacob Chansley, a dangerous conspiracy theorist, was sentenced to nearly 4 years in prison for leading the violent insurrection to overthrow American democracy. There is dispute over how he got into the Capitol building, but internal surveillance video reveals that once inside, Capitol Police officers acted as his tour guides. They took him to multiple entrances, tried to open locked doors for him, and never attempted to slow him down. Chansley even thanked the officers in a prayer on the floor of the senate. This starkly contrasts with the reality of his actions on January 6th.

The speaker believes Trump's poll numbers show Americans don't trust the media. The speaker claims Trump hasn't been charged with insurrection, and if there was any chance of conviction, he would have been charged. The speaker argues it wasn't an insurrection because those involved were unarmed, and Trump told people to protest "peacefully and patriotically." The speaker believes the focus on January 6th is because the Democratic party is scared of Trump. The speaker accuses journalists of being cowardly and part of a propaganda outlet. The speaker questions why the January 6th pipe bomber hasn't been caught and suggests looking at reporting from Revolver News.

More than 170 January 6 defendants are accused of using dangerous weapons against law enforcement, sending a message that politics may overshadow policing. Pardoning violent criminals could endanger communities and impact law enforcement morale. Many Capitol Police officers feel angry and upset, believing they did their job properly on that day, while the pardons suggest the actions of the defendants were acceptable. This issue extends beyond former President Trump; former President Biden also commuted the sentence of Leonard Peltier, who killed two FBI agents in 1975. This sends a troubling message to law enforcement, implying that the deaths of officers in the line of duty can be overlooked, which is deeply hurtful to the families of those agents.

The discussion centers on the dangers posed by pardoned January 6th insurrectionists and the implications for justice. Former prosecutor Brendan Beaulieu emphasizes concern for the victims, particularly police officers assaulted during the riots. He notes the troubling trend of erasing the history of January 6th, likening it to international examples of political repression. Beaulieu warns of a growing effort to legitimize political violence and suggests that local law enforcement will need to protect marginalized communities. He reflects on the shift in federal attitudes toward domestic extremism and acknowledges that the possibility of pardons loomed over the prosecution efforts. Ultimately, he commends the dedication of those who pursued justice despite the risks involved.

The speaker asserts that on January 6th, the former president incited a violent mob to attack and desecrate the nation’s capital, resulting in injuries and deaths of law enforcement officers. The former president has been indicted and impeached for this. The speaker recalls Charlottesville, where the president said there were fine people on each side of a mob spewing anti-Semitic hate. Regarding the Proud Boys militia, the former president said to stand back and stand by. The speaker urges viewers to remember January 6th and not go back to that. The speaker states that Donald Trump has said there will be a bloodbath if the election outcome is not to his liking. The speaker advocates turning the page, charting a course for the future, standing for the country and democracy, and ending the chaos.

It's shocking to witness the president's use of power to pardon 1,500 to 1,600 individuals, including those who may have committed violent acts against law enforcement. Notably, one of the pardoned individuals is a leader of the Proud Boys, highlighting the troubling nature of these early actions. It's hard to fathom that just hours after the Capitol attack, the person who incited it is granting pardons to those involved. This sets a grim tone for the new administration, though it's not entirely unexpected.

Those involved in the violent protests should face consequences, particularly those who assaulted police officers. The actions on the Supreme Court side were unlawful, and those who trespassed should be held accountable. There’s no justification for the violence that occurred. Regarding pardons, Trump has stated he would consider cases individually, not universally. It's important to recognize that Ashley Babbitt was the only person who died on January 6th, and her presence was influenced by Trump's claims about a stolen election. The investigation into that day should have been thorough for transparency. The public deserves to see the full picture of what transpired.

It's crucial for everyone to forget what was said that day. A call was made to march to the Capitol to peacefully express voices, but it escalated into a violent siege. Congresswoman Jamie Herrera Beutler highlighted the severity of the situation, noting that a Capitol police officer was killed by the mob, which also defaced symbols of freedom. The rioters were actively searching for the vice president and the speaker of the house.

The speaker learned about the Capitol riot on January 6th and was disgusted and afraid. They were afraid of what the rioters might do and that they would not face consequences. The speaker is proud to have joined the effort to hold them accountable. The Justice Department charged over 1,500 people with crimes and obtained convictions against almost 1,300. The speaker states that this ensured the rioters would face accountability and created a public record of the crimes committed that day.

January 6 was a direct threat to democracy and the safety of those protecting it, including Capitol Police and local officers. Many off-duty officers rushed to help, and numerous still suffer from injuries sustained that day. The pardons issued by Trump for those involved in the violence are a betrayal of law enforcement and undermine their sacrifices. These pardons included individuals who assaulted officers and committed heinous acts, sending a dangerous message that such violence is acceptable. Despite previous support for law enforcement, many now defend these pardons, which diminishes their credibility. Trump’s actions have released violent individuals back into communities, raising concerns about future criminal acts. I yield back.

On January 6th, the speaker was present at the Capitol as Vice President-elect and acting senator. The speaker states that the president of the United States incited a violent mob to attack and desecrate the nation’s capital. According to the speaker, 140 law enforcement officers were injured, and some died. The former president has been indicted and impeached for this. The speaker recalls Charlottesville, where a mob carried tiki torches and spewed anti-Semitic hate, and the president said there were fine people on each side. The speaker also recalls the former president telling the Proud Boys to stand back and stand by. The speaker concludes by saying, “we don't have to go back.”

I want to remind Americans of the violence unleashed by Donald Trump on January 6, 2021. As a former DC police officer, I responded to distress calls from fellow officers as a mob of Trump supporters violently assaulted law enforcement. I was brutally attacked, pulled from the police line, beaten, and had my badge and radio stripped away. I was also tased by a Trump supporter. These individuals, who admitted their support for Trump, represent the hundreds of officers assaulted that day. The lies about the 2020 election continue to inspire division and violence against fellow Americans and law enforcement. This election is about Trump’s vision for the presidency, serving only himself rather than the people. Thank you.

Axios reports that Trump's pardons related to January 6 were a last-minute decision, with Trump instructing his team to "release them all." Concerns arise over pardoning individuals convicted of violent acts during the Capitol attack. One congressman, who was present that day, acknowledges the lawbreaking but argues that many did not receive due process. He defends Trump's decisions, questioning why the media does not focus on those who were not pardoned. The discussion shifts to accountability, with the congressman asserting that if released individuals reoffend, it should not solely fall on Trump, just as Biden shouldn't be blamed for others' actions. The conversation highlights ongoing political divisions and differing perspectives on law enforcement and justice.

Jacob Chansley, often depicted as a dangerous conspiracy theorist, was sentenced to nearly four years in prison for his role in the January 6th Capitol insurrection. The circumstances of his entry into the Capitol remain disputed, but surveillance footage reveals that Capitol Police did not stop him. Instead, they appeared to assist him, guiding him through the building and even attempting to open locked doors. At least nine officers were in close proximity to Chansley, yet none intervened. Chansley seemed to perceive the Capitol Police as allies, as evidenced by a prayer he offered on the Senate floor thanking them. This contrasts sharply with the narrative surrounding his actions during the insurrection.

Today marks the one-year anniversary of the January 6th Capitol Insurrection. I'm reporting live at a reunion of those involved, including FBI agents. One agent reflects on the violence of Trump supporters, describing a terrifying experience while pretending to be one. Plans for the reunion include casual activities like throwing a Frisbee and joking about past actions. I also spoke with Jake, a Trump supporter present during the riot. He claims to have taken orders from Trump, interpreting calls for peaceful protest as encouragement for violence. After being arrested, he manipulated the situation to secure his release, mentioning Kamala Harris's involvement in raising funds for his bail. For more coverage on January 6th, tune into CNN, which will provide ongoing updates. Next, we’ll go live to a ceremony where Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez lays a wreath at her own grave.

On January 6th, a mob breached the Capitol building, resulting in the deaths of five police officers. The Democratic Party and the national news media quickly labeled it a deadly insurrection, a phrase that carried emotional weight. However, surveillance footage from inside the Capitol showed mostly chaotic but peaceful scenes. The media also falsely claimed that Officer Brian Sicknick was murdered with a fire extinguisher, which was later retracted. The video evidence disproves this claim, as Sicknick can be seen walking in the Capitol after the alleged attack. The January 6th committee, aware of this footage, chose not to release it to the public, revealing their dishonesty.

When questioning the events of January 6th, it became clear that there were lies being told. The speaker believes the media should be ashamed for covering up these lies. They argue that the actions of certain individuals, like Jacob Chansley, were not insurrectionist and should not have resulted in imprisonment. The speaker expresses anger at the lack of remorse shown by those responsible for the false narrative surrounding January 6th.

A discussion takes place regarding the sentencing of a person involved in the Capitol breach. The speaker argues that if it were Antifa, the situation would have been worse, with bombs and casualties. They criticize the media for misrepresenting the events and claim that the only death was caused by a police officer. The speaker believes the sentences given to the January 6th participants were too harsh compared to lenient treatment of other criminals. They highlight past incidents of violence at the Capitol, suggesting that the January 6th events were not as severe. The speaker concludes that the situation has undermined the fairness of the criminal justice system.

We were federal prosecutors on the Justice Department's Capitol attack investigation until the Trump administration fired us on January 31st. Why were we fired? Because we did our job. We followed the facts and the law. What we did was justice for 140 police officers wounded on January 6th, 2021. We were hired to prosecute cases from the riot, and none of our defendants were acquitted, which shows the evidence was overwhelming. But last month, the president pardoned even the most violent convicts, calling them "hostages." Letters of termination hit the Justice Department, calling the prosecution itself a grave national injustice. Anyone who has watched videos of January 6th knows that prosecuting the rioters was not the injustice. The injustice has been the Department of Justice turning its back on law enforcement officers, members of Congress, and all the victims affected.

"This is now effectively a riot." "Disgraceful scenes in the US Congress. Shameful behavior by president Trump. It is a shame in front of the world. A deliberate assault on democracy by a sitting president and his supporters." "I don't care if you're carrying an American flag or wearing a Trump hat. Nobody was going into The United States Capitol through a broken window during a riot on my watch." "I sent it to the FBI on January 15. And to this day, he has not been identified." "United States Postal Service sending these thumb drives out 20 at a time." "group of provocateurs broke away from about midway on the steps in the West, strafed the North side of the capital, and started gathering at the bike racks." "There's probably as few as six to eight people who actually removed the barriers." "It was the FBI and not Trump supporters who led the insurrection at the Capitol on January 6."

Jacob Chansley, a dangerous conspiracy theorist, received a nearly 4-year prison sentence for leading the violent insurrection to overthrow American democracy. There is dispute over how he entered the Capitol building, but internal surveillance videos reveal what happened once he was inside. The footage shows that Capitol Police never stopped Chansley and even acted as his tour guides. They took him to multiple entrances, tried to open locked doors for him, and were within touching distance of him. Chansley saw the police as his allies and thanked them in a prayer on the senate floor. This contrasts with the reality of his actions on January 6th.
