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.

During the Capitol breach, I heard rioters shouting for Trump and witnessed officers in pain. I was being crushed and struggling for oxygen, thinking I might die defending the entrance. Rioters were stripping shields from officers, but I had one and stayed at the front. My family was desperately trying to reach me, and I finally let them know I was alive after giving CPR to a rioter. I arrived home at 4 AM, unable to hug my wife due to the chemicals on my uniform. Despite exhaustion and injuries, I returned to work for 15 consecutive days. Even now, over 6 months later, I'm still recovering, along with other officers.

"Talk to me about the environment in which a shooting like this happens." "we don't know any of full details of this. We don't know if this was the supporter shooting their gun off in celebration or so. We have no idea about this." "He's been one of the most divisive, especially divisive, figures in this who is constantly sort of pushing this sort of hate speech or sort of aimed at certain groups." "I always go back to hateful thoughts lead to hateful words, which then lead to hateful actions." "And I think that's the environment we're in, that people just you can't stop with these sort of awful thoughts you have and then saying these awful words and not expect awful actions to take place." "And that's the unfortunate environment we're in."

A woman in a pink MAGA shirt shouted that a person had voted for Joe Biden, using a racial slur. The small crowd of about 20 people joined in, yelling derogatory remarks. This was the first time I had ever been called such a derogatory term while wearing my Capitol police officer uniform.

The speaker, a sheriff, believes that Ashley Babbitt was murdered during the Capitol shooting. They express their knowledge of use of force and highlight their concern that the investigation into Lieutenant Byrd, who shot Babbitt, did not go to a grand jury. They argue that all law enforcement shootings should be sent to a grand jury for the confidence of the American people. The speaker hopes that when a new president is elected in two years, the shooting of Ashley Babbitt will be presented to a grand jury as a minimum commitment.

Two years ago, Capitol Hill Police Officer Michael Bird shot and killed unarmed Ashley Babbitt. Bird had a prior record of firearm negligence, including leaving a loaded pistol in a public restroom. Babbitt was a 14-year military veteran and ran a pool cleaning business. Bird admitted Babbitt was unarmed and posed no visible threat. Instead of facing charges, Bird was declared a national hero by Nancy Pelosi's congressional police force and the media. He appeared on television and complained about racism. He was never punished for Babbitt's death but instead was rewarded. Babbitt's mother was arrested by Capitol Police for attempting to hold a memorial service for her daughter. The speaker claims that Ashley Babbitt's death is the most significant, yet least discussed, event of January 6th.

We thank you for your service in protecting our country. However, there are questions about what exactly was being protected. Security footage shows that individuals were allowed to enter without resistance, without weapons, almost like a guided tour. It's important to note that the only casualty was Ashley Babbit, who was shot by Capitol Police. So, it raises the question of what exactly was saved that day. The speaker mentions having written a book before going to break.

On January 6, 2021, I, Inspector Thomas Lloyd, signaled the less lethal team to engage election theft protesters. The team fired on the crowd without warning, knocking a man's hat off and then shooting another protester in the head. The protesters were not rioting. I continued to watch as another man was shot in the face. Moments later, a single shot hit a fourth, fifth, and sixth protester in the head, with fragments affecting those nearby. Then, Joshua Black became the seventh person shot in the head without warning; the projectile lodged in his cheek, leaving a scar. I observed everything. The weapon being used clearly had a warning sticker stating not to aim at the head due to the risk of blindness and death.

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.

I've been through a roller coaster of emotions since January 6th. Some days are better than others. It's tough to see people downplay what happened that day. I experienced brutal combat and felt like I was going to die. It was overwhelming. 850 MPD officers and others risked their lives to protect the Capitol. The bravery displayed that day was nothing short of miraculous.

I was appalled by the violence and destruction in the Capitol. It was criminal behavior, domestic terrorism. They were not protesters, but a riotous mob. President Trump entertained conspiracy theories and only after hours of violence did he tell them to leave. We need to trust this committee's work and get the facts out. Officer Brian Sicknick died defending the capital, but there is surveillance footage of him walking inside after he was supposedly killed. Some in the crowd were racist and attacked people. These are Trump terrorists, and the Democrats, along with Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney, lied about what happened. They are liars.

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.

Ashley Babbitt's family plans to file a multimillion dollar wrongful death lawsuit against the Capitol Police Department. They believe the officer who shot Babbitt had no right to use his weapon. According to their lawyer, Babbitt was unarmed and couldn't see the officer due to furniture blocking her view. The officer allegedly didn't give a verbal warning before firing. Babbitt's family argues that while her actions may have been unlawful, they didn't warrant her death. Witnesses express shock and anger at the officer's actions, calling Babbitt's shooting unjustified. They believe she should be seen as a hero for standing up against the government.

"That was so crazy about that incident is not even that it happened, but that it happened on the Capitol Steps right in front of a Capitol police officer." "And he wasn't even asked to take a step back." "And it just like I really just can't help but think about all of that footage and evidence that we saw the day of all these Capitol Police officers helping and being sympathetic to the insurrectionists on January 6." "But if you raise questions about that or if you don't feel safe, it's construed as you attacking the entire institution of public safety." "And we saw a lot of that show up not just in our politics now but even the State of the Union because now both parties are in a contest of how much money they can shovel in the system without critically holding any of it accountable."

The speaker poses questions regarding the shooting of Ashley Babbitt. They ask if the officer knew Babbitt was unarmed, and if not, what led them to believe she was armed. The speaker questions whether the officer verbally ordered Babbitt to stop using commands like "freeze," "halt," "go back," or "stop." Referencing police guidelines, the speaker asks what imminent deadly threat Babbitt posed, especially since she was unarmed and not within reach of an officer or member of Congress. The speaker inquires if the officer was aware of John Sullivan recording the shooting. Finally, the speaker asks about the officer's political views of President Trump and Trump supporters, and whether negative views influenced the decision to shoot. The speaker believes these questions deserve answers.

The speaker was told that the DOJ is still opposing the Babbitt family's wrongful death lawsuit. The speaker responded that they are a "big fan of Ashley Babbitt," who they believe was a "really good person" and a "big MAGA fan" who was "innocently standing there" and that it was a "disgrace" that "a man did something to her that was unthinkable when he shot her." The speaker will look into the case. The speaker was told that the officer who shot Babbitt, Michael Bird, is still on duty and was given a raise and a medal. The speaker believes he may have also received a promotion and that it is a "disgrace." The speaker will look into Bird's reputation. The speaker claims that the people at the January 6th riot "had no guns," and that "there was something to do with the FBI" and "Antifa." The speaker believes that this group of people has been treated more harshly than any other group, with few exceptions. The speaker pardoned people involved in the riot, and believes that "this whole movement that we have is just a it's a very inspiring thing what's happened to our country."

The officer did not want to use lethal force and had never encountered such a situation before. After the incident, he was visibly shaken, and I reassured him that he did what he had to do. It’s tragic that a young woman lost her life, and her family is affected, but the lieutenant's life has also changed forever. He didn't come to work intending to use his weapon; he was forced into that situation to protect others. When commands were ignored, he had to act in self-defense to prevent the weapon from being taken and used against him, which could have endangered more lives. Though many had evacuated, there were still individuals in the area, and his actions likely saved additional lives.

That incident happened on the Capitol Steps in front of a Capitol police officer. He was engaged in sexually threatening aggressive behavior in front on the Capitol Steps, and he wasn't even asked to step back. This officer was just cool with it. There was footage of Capitol Police officers helping and being sympathetic to the insurrectionists on January 6, and everyone decided it was too politically difficult to deal with, brushing it under the rug. To this day, there has never been an investigation into that. Never. As a result, we have no idea which officers are safe around, and whether those with massive weapons were with that crowd or not. If you raise questions about that, it's construed as attacking the entire institution of public safety. Riddle me that. We saw that in the State of the Union too, with both parties shoveling money in without accountability.

On January 6th, I was in the House chamber when Ashley Babbitt was shot and killed by Lieutenant Byrd. She was seen as a threat, but it's unclear what her intentions were. Byrd yelled for her to stop, but she didn't listen. If this had happened during the 2020 riots, Byrd would have been indicted quickly. The events of January 6th were driven by lies.

A woman in a pink MAGA shirt pointed out that a Capitol Police officer had voted for Joe Biden, leading a small crowd to yell racist slurs at him. The officer expressed shock at being called a racial slur while in uniform.

During a town hall with CNN, the speaker discussed the January 6th incident and the possibility of FBI entrapment. They questioned why footage of police using rubber bullets and tear gas on the crowd had been suppressed. The speaker believed that the violence was instigated by the Capitol Police, who threw munitions and injured people outside the Capitol. They mentioned instances of police brutality, including a man who suffered a heart attack and died after being hit by a concussion grenade. The speaker expressed concern about the lack of coverage and video evidence of these events. They emphasized the importance of transparency to prevent similar incidents in the future.

Councilman McDuffy and Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz were thanked by the speaker. The speaker then shared that they were present when someone was shot and could have identified the person if they knew them. The police officer responded, stating that the speaker didn't even realize the person was shot and reassured them that the individual likely didn't experience physical pain.

Two years ago, Capitol Hill police officer Michael Byrd shot and killed an unarmed woman named Ashley Babbitt. Byrd had a history of negligence with firearms, including leaving a loaded pistol in a public restroom. Despite this, he remained on the force. Babbitt, a 14-year military veteran, was unarmed and posed no physical threat. Byrd admitted he had no indication she was carrying a weapon. Instead of facing consequences, Byrd was hailed as a hero and complained about racism. Babbitt's mother, on the other hand, was arrested for trying to hold a memorial service for her daughter. Ashley Babbitt's death is the most significant but least discussed event of January 6th at the US Capitol.

Never before seen footage of January 6 allegedly shows Jake Lange attempting to stop police brutality. He was allegedly trying to save Rosanne Boylan as she was allegedly being killed by the Capitol Police.

I was working as a Capitol Police officer when a woman in a pink MAGA shirt singled me out, yelling that I voted for Joe Biden and used a racial slur. The surrounding crowd of about 20 people joined in, yelling slurs at me. It was the first time I had ever been called that word while wearing my Capitol Police uniform.
