3
00:00:41,171 --> 00:00:42,825
Let's go, D. Hodges!
4
00:00:42,912 --> 00:00:44,305
I'm walking here!
5
00:00:54,532 --> 00:00:56,578
Ow!
6
00:00:56,665 --> 00:00:58,232
Cut it out, cut it out!
7
00:01:15,858 --> 00:01:18,034
DANIEL
When I first learned
about that video
8
00:01:18,121 --> 00:01:19,949
that went around
on the internet
9
00:01:20,036 --> 00:01:22,256
about our defense
in the tunnel,
10
00:01:22,343 --> 00:01:24,823
I hit play,
and I watched what happened,
11
00:01:24,910 --> 00:01:27,174
and I hit pause,
and I wrote down what happened.
12
00:01:29,132 --> 00:01:31,091
And I kept doing that
until I reached the end.
13
00:01:38,185 --> 00:01:40,535
I was embarrassed.
14
00:01:40,622 --> 00:01:44,104
No one wants their 15 minutes of
fame to be crying out for help,
15
00:01:44,191 --> 00:01:48,499
you know, especially if your job
is a police officer.
16
00:01:48,586 --> 00:01:51,285
But ultimately, I'm glad that
it got out and got around,
17
00:01:51,372 --> 00:01:54,592
because it's important
to get the truth out
18
00:01:54,679 --> 00:01:56,681
about what happened.
19
00:02:03,079 --> 00:02:06,648
I almost feel like somebody else
took these photos.
20
00:02:06,735 --> 00:02:08,345
But it was me.
21
00:02:11,609 --> 00:02:14,917
I will always think about
what happened that day.
22
00:02:15,004 --> 00:02:19,051
I will always have these photos
to tell these stories.
23
00:02:24,187 --> 00:02:28,844
I'm trying to capture images
showing you one of the most
24
00:02:28,931 --> 00:02:32,935
important times
in American history.
25
00:02:34,371 --> 00:02:39,507
And I can't wait for the day
where I think that my son
26
00:02:39,594 --> 00:02:44,294
will be interested so I can
explain to him what happened,
27
00:02:44,381 --> 00:02:46,601
that I was there
at the Capitol building.
28
00:02:46,688 --> 00:02:49,952
I was scared for my fucking
life, and you know,
29
00:02:50,039 --> 00:02:51,083
I thought about you.
30
00:02:55,349 --> 00:02:56,698
There's no way I can forget.
31
00:02:59,396 --> 00:03:02,660
When footage of that day
was replayed,
32
00:03:02,747 --> 00:03:05,750
and even today is replayed,
I change the channel.
33
00:03:05,837 --> 00:03:09,667
And I still don't like
to watch it. I just, I can't.
34
00:03:09,754 --> 00:03:11,321
I didn't want to think about it
anymore.
35
00:03:11,408 --> 00:03:17,719
I really, I tried really hard,
as best I could,
36
00:03:17,806 --> 00:03:19,851
to block that day out.
37
00:03:26,336 --> 00:03:31,385
I didn't really share
immediately with, like, family
38
00:03:31,472 --> 00:03:34,866
what really went down, um,
but I've thought about
39
00:03:34,953 --> 00:03:37,521
January 6th a lot, you know
and trying to wrap
40
00:03:37,608 --> 00:03:39,871
my head around really
what happened that day.
41
00:03:42,004 --> 00:03:44,049
When I look back
and I think back,
42
00:03:44,136 --> 00:03:47,444
the gravity of everything
that that happened,
43
00:03:47,531 --> 00:03:51,883
this is history. People be
talking about this for years.
44
00:03:51,970 --> 00:03:55,060
And here I sit dead center,
45
00:03:55,147 --> 00:03:57,149
four days on the job...
46
00:03:58,368 --> 00:04:02,938
four days and the weight
of the world on your shoulders.
47
00:04:04,548 --> 00:04:08,160
I want everyone to know,
48
00:04:08,248 --> 00:04:10,815
there was a huge price to pay
49
00:04:10,902 --> 00:04:16,865
for our democracy on that day.
50
00:04:20,738 --> 00:04:22,218
Sure, where do you
want me to go?
51
00:04:22,305 --> 00:04:23,785
Right back in the...
52
00:04:26,962 --> 00:04:30,400
I was there,
I knew what happened,
53
00:04:30,487 --> 00:04:33,751
I was there all day,
and it's rare that you get
54
00:04:33,838 --> 00:04:37,277
the opportunity to put your
finger on the scale of history.
55
00:04:38,452 --> 00:04:42,847
And influence things in a way
56
00:04:42,934 --> 00:04:45,589
that brings the truth to light.
57
00:04:59,342 --> 00:05:02,476
My dad said democracy
needs the ground to stand on,
58
00:05:03,041 --> 00:05:04,478
and that ground is the truth.
59
00:05:06,218 --> 00:05:07,394
So, we gotta tell the truth.
60
00:05:10,614 --> 00:05:12,224
If we can handle it.
61
00:05:16,272 --> 00:05:18,448
The greatest strength
of democracy is that
62
00:05:18,535 --> 00:05:20,842
it comes from the people.
63
00:05:20,929 --> 00:05:24,715
The weakness of democracy
is that it has so many enemies,
64
00:05:24,802 --> 00:05:28,502
other pretenders to the throne.
65
00:05:30,591 --> 00:05:32,027
They always describe
Donald Trump
66
00:05:32,114 --> 00:05:35,030
as a larger-than-life figure.
67
00:05:35,117 --> 00:05:37,467
I'm appreciating that people
are not larger than life,
68
00:05:37,554 --> 00:05:40,949
people are just the right size
for a democracy
69
00:05:41,036 --> 00:05:43,865
where everybody gets one vote,
70
00:05:43,952 --> 00:05:47,477
one voice, and we need
everybody to participate.
71
00:06:26,255 --> 00:06:29,867
Good afternoon. When I think
about the most basic way
72
00:06:29,954 --> 00:06:34,002
to explain the importance of
elections in the United States,
73
00:06:34,089 --> 00:06:37,179
there's a phrase that always
comes to mind.
74
00:06:37,266 --> 00:06:41,226
It may sound straightforward,
but it's meaningful...
75
00:06:41,313 --> 00:06:43,925
Sometimes the truth is like
a second chance,
76
00:06:44,012 --> 00:06:45,143
and I believe that.
77
00:06:52,716 --> 00:06:53,935
You ready?
78
00:07:17,611 --> 00:07:19,439
Morning, morning.
79
00:07:25,923 --> 00:07:30,232
Ten bucks, ten bucks.
Hats and shirts.
80
00:07:32,321 --> 00:07:34,758
I'm a native son.
81
00:07:34,845 --> 00:07:37,718
This is the city that raised me,
and, you know,
82
00:07:37,805 --> 00:07:41,156
as crazy as this sounds,
I felt like everything
83
00:07:41,243 --> 00:07:43,811
that I had gone through here
in this city prepared me
84
00:07:43,898 --> 00:07:46,074
to be the chief of police
that I was on that day.
85
00:07:53,342 --> 00:07:55,518
I officially took over the job
as chief of police
86
00:07:55,605 --> 00:08:00,436
on January the 2nd, so 4 days
before January the 6th.
87
00:08:00,523 --> 00:08:02,786
Whether that was destiny
or whether it was just you know,
88
00:08:02,873 --> 00:08:06,224
I drew the short straw,
I don't know.
89
00:08:06,311 --> 00:08:08,052
- Whose streets?
- Our streets.
90
00:08:08,139 --> 00:08:09,924
- Whose streets?
- Our streets.
91
00:08:10,011 --> 00:08:12,274
- Whose streets?
- Our streets.
92
00:08:13,884 --> 00:08:16,583
It conjures up memories
of what happened on that day,
93
00:08:16,670 --> 00:08:19,368
kind of hits you in the gut.
94
00:08:19,455 --> 00:08:22,371
The officers are here below,
I mean look at these people
95
00:08:22,458 --> 00:08:25,026
that are standing overhead,
right,
96
00:08:25,113 --> 00:08:27,898
and we're not knowing
who's armed in the crowd.
97
00:08:27,985 --> 00:08:31,293
We had already recovered
firearms and so forth, so...
98
00:08:31,380 --> 00:08:34,165
I mean, there's just
a huge sense of vulnerability.
99
00:08:36,254 --> 00:08:38,735
People were running for their
lives that day,
100
00:08:38,822 --> 00:08:42,347
and it didn't matter,
it didn't matter what side
101
00:08:42,434 --> 00:08:44,480
of the fence you were on,
Republican or Democrat,
102
00:08:44,567 --> 00:08:46,308
it didn't matter.
103
00:08:46,395 --> 00:08:50,530
And for people to pretend
like nothing happened...
104
00:08:51,792 --> 00:08:53,707
it really, really angers me.
105
00:08:57,449 --> 00:08:59,364
Hats and shirts, ten bucks!
106
00:09:02,063 --> 00:09:06,894
That day, I rode into work
and there were a lot of people
107
00:09:06,981 --> 00:09:10,027
already out at like 6:30,
7:00 in the morning,
108
00:09:10,114 --> 00:09:12,029
converging on downtown.
109
00:09:15,729 --> 00:09:19,471
MPD's role,
it's unique in our city.
110
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,736
There are different entities
that work together in order
111
00:09:22,823 --> 00:09:25,347
to provide safety
and security in our city.
112
00:09:25,434 --> 00:09:27,610
You have the United States
Secret Service
113
00:09:27,697 --> 00:09:31,179
who has responsibility
for the White House itself.
114
00:09:31,266 --> 00:09:33,050
You have the United States
Capitol Police
115
00:09:33,137 --> 00:09:35,139
that are responsible
for the Capitol,
116
00:09:35,226 --> 00:09:36,576
and the Metropolitan
Police Department
117
00:09:36,924 --> 00:09:39,970
is responsible for all
of the rest of the city
118
00:09:40,057 --> 00:09:44,235
where people eat, live,
work everyday in our city.
119
00:09:44,322 --> 00:09:46,107
Go Trump!
120
00:09:46,194 --> 00:09:48,413
USA, USA!
121
00:09:48,500 --> 00:09:49,980
Come and get your Trump hats.
122
00:09:50,067 --> 00:09:52,287
Here it is folks!
123
00:09:52,374 --> 00:09:54,245
Good morning, everyone.
124
00:09:54,332 --> 00:09:56,247
With all the rhetoric
that was happening
125
00:09:56,334 --> 00:09:59,337
leading up to January 6th,
we expected something big.
126
00:09:59,424 --> 00:10:01,818
Certainly, there was a lot of
internet chatter and you know,
127
00:10:01,905 --> 00:10:05,300
intelligence information going
back and forth that said
128
00:10:05,387 --> 00:10:07,911
a whole bunch
of different things.
129
00:10:07,998 --> 00:10:11,306
We had requested support from
other law enforcement agencies,
130
00:10:11,393 --> 00:10:14,570
and we requested the services
of the National Guard
131
00:10:14,657 --> 00:10:18,530
from the Secretary of the Army
to assist us in managing traffic
132
00:10:18,618 --> 00:10:20,707
so that police officers
would not be tied up
133
00:10:20,794 --> 00:10:23,013
dealing with traffic control.
134
00:10:23,100 --> 00:10:24,841
But there was a lot of back
and forth
135
00:10:24,928 --> 00:10:29,280
and a lot of discussion
about optics.
136
00:10:29,367 --> 00:10:34,329
And even once they got approval,
I was told the National Guard
137
00:10:34,416 --> 00:10:37,985
could not move East of 9th
Street without the approval
138
00:10:38,072 --> 00:10:40,117
of the Secretary of the Army.
139
00:10:40,204 --> 00:10:43,033
And quite frankly,
I was a little shocked.
140
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:48,560
We would need approval at that
level of government to move
141
00:10:48,648 --> 00:10:52,652
personnel, you know, a few
blocks over from where they are.
142
00:10:52,739 --> 00:10:55,524
I mean that is, that's like,
like huge, right?
143
00:10:55,611 --> 00:10:57,047
That never happens.
144
00:11:04,185 --> 00:11:07,579
I'd been documenting protests
and marches for over a year
145
00:11:07,667 --> 00:11:10,670
at that point, it seems like.
146
00:11:10,757 --> 00:11:12,759
I started going to Trump rallies
147
00:11:12,846 --> 00:11:15,936
because Trump
is a part of the story.
148
00:11:17,807 --> 00:11:22,725
As a photographer,
what was very significant to me
149
00:11:22,812 --> 00:11:26,250
are the people and the people
that were there to attend
150
00:11:26,337 --> 00:11:28,035
the rally.
151
00:11:35,259 --> 00:11:37,827
Part of the reason I do
what I do when it comes
152
00:11:37,914 --> 00:11:41,526
to these protests is document,
you know, the both sides.
153
00:11:43,746 --> 00:11:47,663
I mean, here's this young Black
wearing a fucking
154
00:11:47,750 --> 00:11:51,188
Make America
Great Again red cap.
155
00:11:51,275 --> 00:11:53,495
I couldn't believe it.
156
00:11:53,582 --> 00:11:56,063
What the fuck are you doing?
What are you doing here?
157
00:11:56,150 --> 00:11:58,152
Why, ugh.
158
00:12:00,589 --> 00:12:03,200
Why am I here? Man,
I'm here for President Trump.
159
00:12:03,287 --> 00:12:07,422
I'm here put that energy
in a bucket, man, like...
160
00:12:07,509 --> 00:12:10,033
You start talking to these MAGA
people, and you just become
161
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:13,558
fascinated with their values
162
00:12:13,645 --> 00:12:15,996
and their thought process
163
00:12:16,083 --> 00:12:19,564
and why they believe
what they believe.
164
00:12:22,219 --> 00:12:26,267
...understand and know
that this is a cause
165
00:12:26,354 --> 00:12:29,705
must also understand that
it is a righteous cause.
166
00:12:35,798 --> 00:12:38,714
This is where I knew,
and I was like, "Ah, shit,
167
00:12:38,801 --> 00:12:41,282
we got the Confederate
flag out this bad boy?"
168
00:12:43,545 --> 00:12:44,981
Fucking crazy.
169
00:12:45,721 --> 00:12:49,159
It's the first time I've ever
seen a Confederate
flag in person.
170
00:12:49,246 --> 00:12:53,729
I've never seen one in
my life right before my eyes.
171
00:12:53,816 --> 00:12:55,165
No.
172
00:12:55,252 --> 00:12:57,254
This is the first time,
Washington, DC,
173
00:12:57,341 --> 00:12:59,213
January 6th, 2021.
174
00:13:02,390 --> 00:13:06,307
I thought, you might need to
definitely more than usual,
175
00:13:06,394 --> 00:13:09,049
keep your head on a swivel.
176
00:13:17,274 --> 00:13:20,451
I follow the news. I'm aware
of the political climate
177
00:13:20,538 --> 00:13:22,584
in this country
and how divisive things
178
00:13:22,671 --> 00:13:24,847
have been in recent times.
179
00:13:24,934 --> 00:13:28,895
So, I'd absolutely understand
when communities of color feel
180
00:13:28,982 --> 00:13:31,593
feel like they've been
mistreated by law enforcement
181
00:13:31,680 --> 00:13:34,465
because there is
absolutely a history
of that in this country.
182
00:13:34,552 --> 00:13:38,208
And, I'm not
ignorant of the past.
183
00:13:38,295 --> 00:13:39,644
I am not ignorant
of the present.
184
00:13:43,735 --> 00:13:47,043
With that said, in 2020,
we would work 18 hours a day
185
00:13:47,130 --> 00:13:49,611
with no days off
for like a month at least,
186
00:13:49,698 --> 00:13:51,265
and from a law enforcement
perspective,
187
00:13:51,352 --> 00:13:53,484
that was the
backdrop for January 6th.
188
00:13:55,573 --> 00:13:58,881
That day, we're posted
along Constitution Avenue.
189
00:13:58,968 --> 00:14:01,666
The thing that really stood out
were those who were wearing
190
00:14:01,753 --> 00:14:06,584
ballistic vests, helmets,
goggles, fire gloves,
191
00:14:06,671 --> 00:14:09,196
backpacks packed full
of who knows what,
192
00:14:09,849 --> 00:14:13,461
that was concerning obviously
but that in it of itself isn't
193
00:14:13,548 --> 00:14:15,985
something that we
can stop people for.
194
00:14:16,072 --> 00:14:19,075
Keep it going, come on,
keep the march going.
195
00:14:19,162 --> 00:14:21,643
You've got a great march
going here, come on.
196
00:14:21,730 --> 00:14:23,166
At one point, some people
with tact gear came up
197
00:14:23,253 --> 00:14:25,038
to one of my colleagues
198
00:14:25,125 --> 00:14:27,910
and said, "Is this all
the police officers you have?"
199
00:14:28,128 --> 00:14:29,694
And my colleague looked down
at him, and was just confused,
200
00:14:29,781 --> 00:14:32,262
like, uh, didn't know
how to respond.
201
00:14:32,349 --> 00:14:35,962
And then the guy also said,
"Do you really think
you could stop us?
202
00:14:38,965 --> 00:14:41,706
So that was rather ominous.
203
00:14:44,144 --> 00:14:45,972
So, I'm checking out
the landscape of the city.
204
00:14:46,059 --> 00:14:47,974
- Whose streets?
- Our streets!
205
00:14:48,061 --> 00:14:50,193
- Whose streets?
- Our streets!
206
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:53,718
I'm in the car, and there
were a group of individuals
207
00:14:53,805 --> 00:14:57,984
marching in formation, which
is what caught my attention.
208
00:14:58,071 --> 00:15:00,073
They were walking
towards the US Capitol.
209
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:01,378
And I took a picture of that.
210
00:15:01,465 --> 00:15:02,684
Where's Antifa?
211
00:15:02,771 --> 00:15:04,468
Where's Antifa?
212
00:15:04,555 --> 00:15:06,514
Where's Antifa?
213
00:15:06,601 --> 00:15:09,212
Some of them were wearing
orange skull caps,
214
00:15:09,299 --> 00:15:11,998
and they had, like,
these ballistic vests on.
215
00:15:12,955 --> 00:15:16,350
Obviously, I'm thinking about,
you know, some type of training,
216
00:15:16,437 --> 00:15:19,788
prior law enforcement,
potentially military, potentially.
217
00:15:19,875 --> 00:15:21,485
I'm thinking about
all those things.
218
00:15:21,572 --> 00:15:24,314
And I reached out to our
Homeland Security Chief
219
00:15:24,401 --> 00:15:27,752
and I said, "Hey,
I just noticed this.
220
00:15:27,839 --> 00:15:29,972
We need to make sure that we're
communicating with Capitol,
221
00:15:30,059 --> 00:15:31,713
that this is coming their way."
222
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:32,932
Fuck Antifa!
223
00:15:33,019 --> 00:15:34,237
Fuck Antifa!
224
00:15:34,324 --> 00:15:35,586
Fuck Antifa!
225
00:15:41,549 --> 00:15:43,246
I said let me go see
how many people are really
226
00:15:43,333 --> 00:15:44,726
at this damn thing.
227
00:15:46,293 --> 00:15:51,385
Got all the way up, went up
this riser and then it was like,
228
00:15:51,472 --> 00:15:53,300
holy shit.
229
00:15:53,387 --> 00:15:55,867
This is thousands of people.
230
00:15:56,346 --> 00:15:57,913
Thousands.
231
00:15:58,131 --> 00:16:00,611
When I saw that,
I was like, goddamn.
232
00:16:00,698 --> 00:16:05,094
There's definitely going to be
some agitators
233
00:16:05,181 --> 00:16:07,575
amongst a crowd
of this size.
234
00:16:07,662 --> 00:16:10,926
Trump! Trump! Trump!
235
00:16:11,013 --> 00:16:13,146
Whooooo!
236
00:16:26,724 --> 00:16:29,249
The media will not show
the magnitude of this crowd.
237
00:16:30,554 --> 00:16:33,862
These people are not going
to take it any longer.
238
00:16:33,949 --> 00:16:37,387
They're not going to
take it any longer.
239
00:16:37,474 --> 00:16:40,738
I just really want to
see what they do.
240
00:16:40,825 --> 00:16:42,044
I just want to see
how they cover it.
241
00:16:42,131 --> 00:16:44,003
I've never seen
anything like it.
242
00:16:44,090 --> 00:16:46,396
It'd be really great if we...
243
00:16:47,441 --> 00:16:49,269
Take this now?
Yep.
244
00:16:55,057 --> 00:16:56,493
See ya, Mom!
245
00:16:56,580 --> 00:16:58,147
Bye-bye, have a good day.
246
00:16:58,234 --> 00:16:59,279
You too.
247
00:17:05,198 --> 00:17:07,852
That day, I was so excited
248
00:17:07,939 --> 00:17:11,421
for this certification
of these votes.
249
00:17:11,508 --> 00:17:16,600
I had never experienced
that, and so I drove to work
250
00:17:16,687 --> 00:17:20,256
really excited,
I got all dressed up.
251
00:17:20,343 --> 00:17:24,826
I've always worked in spaces
that are meant to advocate
252
00:17:24,913 --> 00:17:27,263
or uplift the Black community.
253
00:17:27,350 --> 00:17:31,920
And when Donald Trump
became president, it was,
254
00:17:32,007 --> 00:17:34,705
it was a challenging time,
to say the least.
255
00:17:34,792 --> 00:17:37,491
Um, so it felt like it
was a new day, you know?
256
00:17:37,578 --> 00:17:41,930
Joe Biden campaigned
on a message of unity,
257
00:17:42,017 --> 00:17:44,846
and it was something that
we had not heard in a few years,
258
00:17:44,933 --> 00:17:47,631
so I was really,
really, really excited
259
00:17:47,718 --> 00:17:50,547
to see what the future
held.
260
00:17:58,860 --> 00:18:01,558
I remember driving
down North Capitol Street,
261
00:18:01,645 --> 00:18:05,432
passing Lincoln's cottage
and the Rock Creek Cemetery,
262
00:18:05,519 --> 00:18:08,174
which is acres of tombstones.
263
00:18:09,827 --> 00:18:13,309
My whole life, I've thought
a lot about Abraham Lincoln.
264
00:18:13,396 --> 00:18:16,573
That day, I thought
about Lincoln
265
00:18:16,660 --> 00:18:20,360
losing his son in 1862
266
00:18:20,447 --> 00:18:23,145
near the beginning
of the Civil War,
267
00:18:23,232 --> 00:18:27,454
and not being able to properly
grieve for his son
268
00:18:27,541 --> 00:18:29,804
and being pulled
immediately into all of
269
00:18:29,891 --> 00:18:34,287
the military
planning and everything.
270
00:18:34,374 --> 00:18:36,027
I want to thank
all of you for coming
271
00:18:36,115 --> 00:18:39,988
and sharing our grief.
272
00:18:40,075 --> 00:18:44,166
Sharing our joy also,
about the life of Tommy.
273
00:18:46,037 --> 00:18:48,257
I've lost something
so fundamental,
274
00:18:48,344 --> 00:18:52,174
so elemental in my life
I am not sure at times
275
00:18:52,261 --> 00:18:54,263
that I even
recognize the world.
276
00:18:59,964 --> 00:19:06,406
Uh, my son Tommy had taken
his life on December 31st, 2020,
277
00:19:06,493 --> 00:19:08,756
um, after...
278
00:19:10,149 --> 00:19:11,541
um...
279
00:19:11,628 --> 00:19:15,066
a long seesaw battle
with depression.
280
00:19:28,167 --> 00:19:32,127
This was obviously
an overwhelming trauma
281
00:19:32,214 --> 00:19:35,565
and catastrophe
in the life of our family.
282
00:19:38,916 --> 00:19:43,094
We had his graveside service,
on January 5th.
283
00:19:43,182 --> 00:19:46,707
The next day,
January 6th...
284
00:19:47,969 --> 00:19:50,711
was the day
constitutionally assigned for
285
00:19:50,798 --> 00:19:52,626
Congress to meet
in joint session
286
00:19:52,713 --> 00:19:55,063
to receive
the Electoral College votes.
287
00:19:56,804 --> 00:19:58,893
The Speaker called to ask if
I could come in,
288
00:19:58,980 --> 00:20:00,808
and I told her
that I could come
289
00:20:00,895 --> 00:20:05,595
because the Democrats
had an extremely
narrow majority,
290
00:20:05,682 --> 00:20:08,381
and of course I was miserable
291
00:20:08,468 --> 00:20:14,082
and I was grieving, but the
truth is that I knew that Tommy
292
00:20:15,823 --> 00:20:18,042
would be in my heart,
he would be in my chest.
293
00:20:18,129 --> 00:20:20,088
I felt him there
from the beginning,
294
00:20:20,175 --> 00:20:24,135
and I knew that he would
want me to be hanging tough.
295
00:20:25,398 --> 00:20:28,270
That became
a governing logic for me
296
00:20:28,357 --> 00:20:30,403
in everything
that was to come.
297
00:20:37,497 --> 00:20:40,239
Our youngest daughter, Tabitha,
decided to come with me,
298
00:20:42,023 --> 00:20:44,330
and so did my son-in-law, Hank,
299
00:20:44,417 --> 00:20:46,201
who's married
to our daughter Hannah.
300
00:20:49,726 --> 00:20:51,946
We looked out the window and
we could see these streams
301
00:20:52,033 --> 00:20:55,036
of protestors coming
towards the Capitol.
302
00:20:56,211 --> 00:20:58,344
I just had never
seen that before.
303
00:20:58,431 --> 00:20:59,736
Where's Antifa?
304
00:20:59,823 --> 00:21:01,042
Where's Antifa?
305
00:21:01,129 --> 00:21:02,391
Where's Antifa?
306
00:21:08,745 --> 00:21:13,707
My assumption
was that the Capitol police
were well prepared,
307
00:21:13,794 --> 00:21:16,275
much like the Metropolitan
Police Department.
308
00:21:16,362 --> 00:21:19,930
What I saw
that was concerning to me
309
00:21:20,017 --> 00:21:21,758
is that there were not
very many
310
00:21:21,845 --> 00:21:25,632
Capitol police officers there
at the, at the bike rack.
311
00:21:25,719 --> 00:21:28,069
And this was really the first
point where they
312
00:21:28,156 --> 00:21:30,245
had to confront
some of the protestors.
313
00:21:33,901 --> 00:21:36,469
And I'm not exactly sure
strategically
314
00:21:36,556 --> 00:21:38,558
why they were
deployed that way.
315
00:21:38,645 --> 00:21:42,953
USA. USA. USA. USA.
316
00:21:55,444 --> 00:21:58,012
They breached the area here.
317
00:21:58,099 --> 00:21:59,100
Holy shit, guys.
318
00:22:03,539 --> 00:22:04,671
Holy shit, holy shit.
319
00:22:12,635 --> 00:22:13,680
Let's go!!
320
00:22:18,685 --> 00:22:20,948
If that had been defended
differently, you know--
321
00:22:21,035 --> 00:22:23,080
I can Monday-morning
quarterback it, but you know,
322
00:22:23,342 --> 00:22:25,474
what if there were
enough people there
323
00:22:25,561 --> 00:22:27,520
when that initial group
came there?
324
00:22:27,607 --> 00:22:29,478
You know, would things
have been different?
325
00:22:36,006 --> 00:22:38,444
We looked out the
window and Tabitha said,
326
00:22:38,531 --> 00:22:40,968
"Are the police gonna be able
to stop all these people?"
327
00:22:41,055 --> 00:22:44,711
And I said, "Yeah, it'll
be safe, it's the Capitol."
328
00:22:46,713 --> 00:22:49,803
We saw the protestors were
getting closer to the building,
329
00:22:49,890 --> 00:22:53,328
but I didn't take it seriously
because I thought the Capitol
330
00:22:53,415 --> 00:22:55,765
was one of the safest
buildings in the world.
331
00:22:55,852 --> 00:22:57,811
This is our house!
332
00:22:57,898 --> 00:23:00,683
We had been hearing chatter
of a potential protest,
333
00:23:00,770 --> 00:23:03,643
but that wasn't
out of the ordinary,
334
00:23:04,165 --> 00:23:06,515
so I just figured, you know,
that's what comes with
the territory of the day.
335
00:23:09,126 --> 00:23:12,347
USA! USA!
336
00:23:12,434 --> 00:23:14,610
I did
feel more nervous about it,
337
00:23:14,697 --> 00:23:17,352
but the Capitol police
felt like they were ready,
they were on top of it,
338
00:23:17,439 --> 00:23:20,747
so I gave Tabitha
and Hank a kiss goodbye,
339
00:23:20,834 --> 00:23:22,923
I said, "I'll see you out
at the floor," you know,
340
00:23:23,010 --> 00:23:25,969
"I'll be able to look up
at you in the gallery."
341
00:23:26,056 --> 00:23:27,928
Rhonda, we're also seeing
Senators gather
342
00:23:28,015 --> 00:23:32,062
and prepare to
walk over to the House Chamber.
343
00:23:32,149 --> 00:23:34,325
We were preparing for there
to be a convening
344
00:23:34,413 --> 00:23:37,154
of the full body of Congress
to certify these votes.
345
00:23:37,241 --> 00:23:40,027
I was really excited
just, just to be there.
346
00:23:40,114 --> 00:23:43,204
And I remember House Majority
Whip Jim Clyburn
347
00:23:43,291 --> 00:23:45,946
doing his various press
interviews and taking
kind of a selfie
348
00:23:46,033 --> 00:23:49,906
of myself with the
Congressman, as I do.
349
00:23:53,649 --> 00:23:56,913
I was recording the Senators
walking over
350
00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:00,439
and posting it to Instagram, and
I think I said something like,
351
00:24:00,526 --> 00:24:03,006
"Let the certification begin,"
or something cheesy like that.
352
00:24:06,053 --> 00:24:07,750
Madam Speaker,
members of Congress,
353
00:24:07,837 --> 00:24:11,362
pursuant to the Constitution and
the laws of the United States...
354
00:24:11,450 --> 00:24:14,409
On the House floor,
they passed out the memo
355
00:24:14,496 --> 00:24:16,716
from Vice President Pence
356
00:24:16,803 --> 00:24:18,805
saying that he was not going
357
00:24:18,892 --> 00:24:22,025
to assert unilateral powers
358
00:24:22,112 --> 00:24:25,551
to reject Electoral College
votes from the states.
359
00:24:25,638 --> 00:24:27,248
That memo told you precisely
360
00:24:27,335 --> 00:24:29,206
what Trump was trying
to get him to do,
361
00:24:29,293 --> 00:24:30,904
and he explained
why he couldn't do it
362
00:24:30,991 --> 00:24:34,168
and why it was not consistent
with the Constitution.
363
00:24:34,255 --> 00:24:36,823
So, I breathed a sigh of relief
because that was good news.
364
00:24:36,910 --> 00:24:38,912
After ascertainment
has been had
365
00:24:38,999 --> 00:24:42,872
that the certificates are
authentic and correct in form,
366
00:24:42,959 --> 00:24:45,484
the tellers will count and
make a list of the votes...
367
00:24:45,571 --> 00:24:47,442
A lot of us went into the
Congressman's office because
368
00:24:47,529 --> 00:24:49,662
the Congressman was
on the House floor
369
00:24:49,749 --> 00:24:52,142
dealing with
the certification by then.
370
00:24:52,229 --> 00:24:54,449
Outside of the Congressmen's
window,
371
00:24:54,536 --> 00:24:58,322
we could see the protestors
were getting closer,
372
00:24:58,409 --> 00:25:01,238
and it just seemed like they
were getting closer and closer.
373
00:25:03,719 --> 00:25:06,592
But even then, I was just like,
"That's closer than usual,
374
00:25:06,679 --> 00:25:08,289
but you know,
Capitol police will be fine."
375
00:25:13,947 --> 00:25:15,296
Our house!
376
00:25:16,689 --> 00:25:18,908
USA! USA!
377
00:25:18,995 --> 00:25:22,912
USA! USA! USA!
378
00:25:22,999 --> 00:25:25,045
USA! USA!
379
00:25:25,132 --> 00:25:26,525
Let's go, let's go.
380
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:39,581
While that
first wave of people breached
the West Side of the Capitol,
381
00:25:39,668 --> 00:25:43,411
we get the call that
we have a suspicious package,
382
00:25:43,498 --> 00:25:47,981
one at the RNC, another
suspicious package at the DNC.
383
00:25:48,068 --> 00:25:50,723
And these things turned out
to be, like, real pipe bombs.
384
00:25:50,810 --> 00:25:53,595
We the people!
We the people!
385
00:25:53,682 --> 00:25:55,554
And almost simultaneously,
386
00:25:55,641 --> 00:25:59,253
we also get the call
as the Metropolitan
Police Department
387
00:25:59,340 --> 00:26:02,604
to come in to assist with
what's going on at the Capitol.
388
00:26:08,479 --> 00:26:11,744
And this is local law
enforcement coming to the aid
of the federal government.
389
00:26:11,831 --> 00:26:13,397
We don't do that in the
Metropolitan Police Department.
390
00:26:13,484 --> 00:26:15,704
It's not our area
of responsibility.
391
00:26:24,321 --> 00:26:25,758
We were broken up
into three squads,
392
00:26:25,845 --> 00:26:27,890
and I remember we're getting
ready for the day,
393
00:26:27,977 --> 00:26:29,588
and we're like it's just
going to be a normal day,
394
00:26:29,675 --> 00:26:31,459
you know they just needed
more manpower just in case.
395
00:26:31,546 --> 00:26:34,462
And within seconds,
the radio goes off.
396
00:26:34,549 --> 00:26:37,334
And everything just changed.
397
00:26:37,421 --> 00:26:40,511
The mood that we were just in
30 seconds ago was, was gone.
398
00:26:40,599 --> 00:26:47,040
USA! USA! USA! USA!
399
00:26:47,127 --> 00:26:49,782
The scene was so chaotic
on the West front of the Capitol
400
00:26:49,869 --> 00:26:52,001
that the US Capitol police
401
00:26:52,088 --> 00:26:54,700
requested the services
of the National Guard.
402
00:27:06,363 --> 00:27:08,801
Every minute was precious,
as far as I'm concerned.
403
00:27:08,888 --> 00:27:10,541
We got what's happening
at the Capitol.
404
00:27:10,629 --> 00:27:13,719
We got pipe bombs at the RNC
and DNC-- real pipe bombs.
405
00:27:13,806 --> 00:27:16,504
We got members deployed there,
and we still have this
406
00:27:16,591 --> 00:27:19,420
large group of people that
have not even stepped off
407
00:27:19,507 --> 00:27:22,205
from the Ellipse to make
their way towards the Capitol.
408
00:27:22,292 --> 00:27:25,469
Right here, we're going
to walk down to the Capitol!
409
00:27:31,475 --> 00:27:34,914
The kind of pride and boldness
that they need
410
00:27:35,001 --> 00:27:36,655
to take back our country.
411
00:27:36,742 --> 00:27:40,310
So, let's walk down
Pennsylvania Avenue.
412
00:27:40,397 --> 00:27:41,921
I want to thank you all,
413
00:27:42,008 --> 00:27:45,620
God bless you
and God bless America.
414
00:27:45,707 --> 00:27:47,056
Thank you all for being here.
415
00:27:47,143 --> 00:27:48,884
This is incredible.
Thank you very much.
416
00:27:48,971 --> 00:27:52,061
Whooooo!
417
00:27:52,148 --> 00:27:55,978
1776! 1776!
418
00:27:56,065 --> 00:27:58,198
After the President finished
his speech,
419
00:27:58,285 --> 00:27:59,765
there was just like, you know,
420
00:27:59,852 --> 00:28:02,942
wave after wave
after wave of people,
421
00:28:03,029 --> 00:28:05,945
who didn't even have a barricade
to walk by at this point.
422
00:28:06,032 --> 00:28:07,642
I mean, it's just a mob
of people.
423
00:28:11,298 --> 00:28:13,039
On the way to the Capitol
building--
424
00:28:21,090 --> 00:28:23,179
- Whose flag?
- Our flag!
425
00:28:23,266 --> 00:28:25,399
Whose streets?
Our streets!
426
00:28:25,921 --> 00:28:27,444
- Yeah!
- God Bless America, baby!
427
00:28:27,531 --> 00:28:28,489
MEL
How you feeling, Nate?
428
00:28:29,272 --> 00:28:31,492
Oh, I'm feeling ready,
bro. Readier than ever.
429
00:28:33,537 --> 00:28:34,887
They're
evacuating the building.
430
00:28:34,974 --> 00:28:37,063
Occupy the Capitol.
Our building.
431
00:28:37,150 --> 00:28:38,194
They're
evacuating the building.
432
00:28:38,281 --> 00:28:39,282
Nobody else's building.
433
00:28:39,369 --> 00:28:40,457
It's ours...
434
00:28:40,544 --> 00:28:43,156
♪ ...marching on ♪
435
00:28:43,243 --> 00:28:45,941
♪ Glory, glory hallelujah ♪
436
00:28:46,028 --> 00:28:50,554
Then, once I got to the Capitol,
the "oh shit" moment
437
00:28:50,641 --> 00:28:53,601
really happened
where you're like, fuck!
438
00:28:53,688 --> 00:28:54,820
We live for freedom!
439
00:28:56,604 --> 00:28:58,084
Come see it.
440
00:28:58,171 --> 00:28:59,259
Come see these people
take this house back.
441
00:28:59,346 --> 00:29:00,564
Come see it.
442
00:29:02,436 --> 00:29:07,136
This looks like some shit
out of a crazy-ass movie set.
443
00:29:07,223 --> 00:29:08,790
This is democracy!
444
00:29:09,051 --> 00:29:11,532
This is what you get
with rule of the mob!
445
00:29:11,924 --> 00:29:14,709
I get up to this structure,
and I just hear people saying,
446
00:29:14,796 --> 00:29:16,580
"Everyone gotta get off,
it's too many people,
447
00:29:16,667 --> 00:29:18,060
this is gonna collapse."
448
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:21,498
Stop the steal!
449
00:29:25,764 --> 00:29:27,504
Where are people gonna go?
450
00:29:27,591 --> 00:29:29,637
Are people actually gonna
go in the fucking building?
451
00:29:29,724 --> 00:29:31,204
Like what the hell is happening?
452
00:29:31,291 --> 00:29:32,509
Where are the police?
453
00:29:32,596 --> 00:29:34,207
We want Trump!
454
00:29:34,294 --> 00:29:35,991
We want Trump!
455
00:29:36,078 --> 00:29:37,514
We're at the gate,
we're coming through
456
00:29:37,601 --> 00:29:39,081
this motherfucker tonight.
457
00:29:39,168 --> 00:29:40,387
We're at the door.
458
00:29:40,474 --> 00:29:42,171
We're right here,
we're coming in.
459
00:29:42,258 --> 00:29:43,999
We're not stopping, goddamnit!
460
00:29:44,478 --> 00:29:46,436
This is our house
motherfuckers!
461
00:29:47,002 --> 00:29:48,047
USA!
462
00:29:55,445 --> 00:29:57,534
DC 42,
disregard Constitution.
463
00:29:57,621 --> 00:29:59,667
...will respond over there.
464
00:29:59,754 --> 00:30:01,538
We received the order
to go to the Capitol,
465
00:30:01,625 --> 00:30:03,845
and we were putting on our gear
when eventually our sergeant
466
00:30:03,932 --> 00:30:06,369
said, "All right, that's enough,
whatever you got on
is gonna be it.
467
00:30:06,456 --> 00:30:07,936
It's time to move."
468
00:30:08,023 --> 00:30:10,634
So, we all got in the van
and started driving.
469
00:30:19,948 --> 00:30:22,908
I was racing faster than
I've ever driven a police car
470
00:30:22,995 --> 00:30:24,170
in my life to get down there.
471
00:30:27,129 --> 00:30:29,305
When we got out of the car,
there were thousands
472
00:30:29,392 --> 00:30:30,437
and thousands of people.
473
00:30:34,571 --> 00:30:36,660
There was no orders
at that point.
474
00:30:36,747 --> 00:30:39,576
There was too much going on
to have any type of orders,
475
00:30:39,663 --> 00:30:41,665
and I did not think that
we were going to be able
476
00:30:41,752 --> 00:30:43,363
to get through the crowd.
477
00:30:43,450 --> 00:30:44,625
I didn't think they would
allow us to get through.
478
00:30:54,896 --> 00:30:57,029
This is our 1776.
479
00:30:57,116 --> 00:30:59,988
We need to continue
to storm this Capitol.
480
00:31:00,075 --> 00:31:03,209
Do not let police through,
they are traitors.
481
00:31:23,925 --> 00:31:25,100
There were so many people.
482
00:31:28,408 --> 00:31:29,931
They had us comically
outnumbered.
483
00:31:32,238 --> 00:31:34,240
One guy asked me,
"Are you my brother?"
484
00:31:34,327 --> 00:31:36,633
It took me a second to process
what he was asking me.
485
00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:39,680
"Do you actually think
I want to overthrow
the government with you?"
486
00:31:42,596 --> 00:31:45,294
If it was just the couple
hundred that committed
487
00:31:45,381 --> 00:31:48,254
the extreme acts of violence,
we coulda handled that.
488
00:31:48,341 --> 00:31:51,170
It's the thousands and thousands
of people backing them up.
489
00:31:54,608 --> 00:31:56,001
It was the crowd
that was the weapon.
490
00:32:00,962 --> 00:32:03,834
I'm seeing objects
being flown at us,
491
00:32:03,922 --> 00:32:05,184
screaming at other
officers to duck
492
00:32:05,271 --> 00:32:06,837
because they're about
to get hit with a brick.
493
00:32:12,452 --> 00:32:13,975
They started attacking us.
494
00:32:14,062 --> 00:32:15,846
One guy tried to grab my baton.
495
00:32:15,934 --> 00:32:17,936
I was taking blows
from all sides.
496
00:32:18,023 --> 00:32:20,503
I felt something heavy
come down into my head.
497
00:32:20,590 --> 00:32:22,679
Eventually I went to the ground,
498
00:32:24,768 --> 00:32:28,120
and the guy I was wrestling with
kicked me in the chest.
499
00:32:30,905 --> 00:32:32,907
The medical mask I was wearing
at the time had actually
500
00:32:32,994 --> 00:32:36,215
gotten pulled up over my eyes,
so when I was on the ground
501
00:32:36,302 --> 00:32:39,740
on all fours I was also blind,
and I was afraid I was just
502
00:32:39,827 --> 00:32:41,524
about to get dogpiled
and destroyed.
503
00:32:50,272 --> 00:32:53,623
I lost my radio, my baton,
504
00:32:55,669 --> 00:32:58,889
uh, I can't remember now, but
a few other pieces of equipment.
505
00:32:58,977 --> 00:33:00,979
You couldn't defend yourself
and your gear at the same time,
506
00:33:01,066 --> 00:33:02,502
so you just had to let it go.
507
00:33:07,246 --> 00:33:10,901
When I, thankfully
got back up on my feet,
508
00:33:10,989 --> 00:33:12,468
I led my platoon
through the crowd
509
00:33:12,555 --> 00:33:14,949
until we got to
the terrace proper,
510
00:33:15,036 --> 00:33:17,734
and we joined Capitol police
and the rest of MPD there.
511
00:33:21,434 --> 00:33:23,262
You couldn't get any closer
to the Capitol at that point
512
00:33:23,349 --> 00:33:25,264
without going inside, honestly.
513
00:33:25,351 --> 00:33:28,180
So, I knew at that point
that it was imperative
514
00:33:28,267 --> 00:33:29,529
that we keep them out.
515
00:33:33,576 --> 00:33:35,361
Fuck you!
516
00:33:35,448 --> 00:33:36,449
Fuck you!
517
00:33:38,277 --> 00:33:41,410
You're a fucking scumbag!
Scumbag!
518
00:33:41,497 --> 00:33:43,543
You're all fucking scumbags!
519
00:33:43,630 --> 00:33:46,372
You swore a fucking
oath to this country!
520
00:33:46,459 --> 00:33:48,635
That's me right there.
521
00:33:48,722 --> 00:33:51,594
Once I got to the Capitol,
as I walk down the steps
522
00:33:51,681 --> 00:33:53,683
to the West Front,
on this white marble
523
00:33:53,770 --> 00:33:57,035
you're seeing police officers'
gear, blood,
524
00:33:57,122 --> 00:34:00,255
anything and everything that you
can think of that would happen
525
00:34:00,342 --> 00:34:03,258
in a fight, it was happening
right there on the West Front.
526
00:34:09,743 --> 00:34:13,399
Well, fuck you guys! You
can't call yourselves Americans!
527
00:34:13,486 --> 00:34:16,315
You broke your fucking
oath today!
528
00:34:16,402 --> 00:34:18,534
1776, man!
529
00:34:22,756 --> 00:34:25,628
When we go through our training,
we are required to get sprayed
530
00:34:25,715 --> 00:34:29,197
with OC, which is pepper spray,
so we know how we react,
531
00:34:29,284 --> 00:34:30,807
we know how our body reacts.
532
00:34:30,894 --> 00:34:32,635
It was not fun.
533
00:34:32,722 --> 00:34:35,073
It lasts for about 45 minutes
before you can see again,
534
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:36,770
you feel better again.
535
00:34:36,857 --> 00:34:38,337
Bear mace--
536
00:34:38,424 --> 00:34:43,124
compared to that,
OC is, like, on level 10.
537
00:34:43,820 --> 00:34:45,170
I was just blinded.
538
00:34:47,128 --> 00:34:48,434
You okay?
539
00:34:48,521 --> 00:34:49,739
I just can't open my eyes.
540
00:34:49,826 --> 00:34:51,089
Okay, need some more water?
541
00:34:53,700 --> 00:34:54,962
Oh, my God.
542
00:34:55,049 --> 00:34:56,398
I know. You're blinded, right?
543
00:34:58,096 --> 00:35:00,010
They're throwing shit,
so I'm just going to put this
on top of your head.
544
00:35:00,098 --> 00:35:01,490
Alright.
545
00:35:01,577 --> 00:35:02,839
Just in case.
Alright.
546
00:35:02,926 --> 00:35:04,493
I don't want you to get hit.
547
00:35:04,580 --> 00:35:06,495
You're just hopeless
and helpless at that point.
548
00:35:07,888 --> 00:35:09,063
Can I get more water?
Yeah.
549
00:35:34,610 --> 00:35:35,872
I'm representing our president.
550
00:35:35,959 --> 00:35:37,613
He won this election.
551
00:35:37,700 --> 00:35:40,486
This was stolen from us,
and a million people
552
00:35:40,573 --> 00:35:42,270
are standing in front of
the Capitol, and we know it.
553
00:35:47,362 --> 00:35:49,321
Are there any objections
to counting the certificate
554
00:35:49,408 --> 00:35:51,453
of vote from the state
of Arizona?
555
00:35:51,540 --> 00:35:54,630
We began the counting of
Electoral College votes,
556
00:35:54,935 --> 00:35:57,416
and Arizona was the first one
where there were objections.
557
00:35:58,025 --> 00:36:00,854
Is the objection in writing
and signed by a Senator?
558
00:36:00,941 --> 00:36:02,943
- Yes, it is.
- It is.
559
00:36:05,293 --> 00:36:08,601
Something like 50 or 60
Republicans got up to object.
560
00:36:08,688 --> 00:36:11,995
And at that point, the joint
session immediately breaks,
561
00:36:12,082 --> 00:36:13,606
and the House and the Senate
resolve into
562
00:36:13,693 --> 00:36:17,523
our separate chambers
to debate the challenges.
563
00:36:17,610 --> 00:36:22,615
I look back up in the gallery
to see that Tabitha
and Hank were there.
564
00:36:22,702 --> 00:36:25,835
And then it was my turn
to get up,
565
00:36:25,922 --> 00:36:30,013
my basic point was going
to be that the election is over.
566
00:36:30,100 --> 00:36:33,713
It's not our job to vote for the
person we want to be President;
567
00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:39,588
it's our job to certify
the votes that have come in
from the governors.
568
00:36:39,675 --> 00:36:41,111
That's what the job is.
569
00:36:41,199 --> 00:36:43,984
But before getting into it,
I took a second
570
00:36:44,071 --> 00:36:47,379
just to thank the Speaker
and all of the Members
571
00:36:47,466 --> 00:36:50,556
for their condolences.
572
00:36:50,643 --> 00:36:53,776
The gentleman is recognized
without objection for five
minutes.
573
00:36:53,863 --> 00:36:55,865
Madam Speaker,
I wanna thank you first,
574
00:36:55,952 --> 00:36:58,781
and-- and all my dear, beloved
colleagues for your love
575
00:36:58,868 --> 00:37:00,261
and tenderness,
which my family
576
00:37:00,348 --> 00:37:02,655
and I will never forget.
577
00:37:02,742 --> 00:37:06,136
And then, there was this
huge standing ovation...
578
00:37:24,198 --> 00:37:26,592
It was jarring
and disorienting for me
579
00:37:26,679 --> 00:37:30,596
because I could kind of see
580
00:37:30,683 --> 00:37:35,122
them looking at me,
581
00:37:35,209 --> 00:37:37,907
or into me as
582
00:37:37,994 --> 00:37:42,303
a person embodying
tragedy at that point.
583
00:37:45,524 --> 00:37:48,353
It was really a lovely,
wonderful gesture,
584
00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:51,660
but I'm not sure
I totally understood it.
585
00:37:51,747 --> 00:37:57,753
But then I started thinking,
in my kind of sleepless,
586
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:04,499
disjointed way, "Well, maybe
everyone's love of Tommy,
587
00:38:04,586 --> 00:38:08,329
or sympathy for our family,
would lead to an end
588
00:38:08,416 --> 00:38:11,201
of all of this fighting
over the election."
589
00:38:11,289 --> 00:38:14,857
Maybe they would withdraw
the Stop the Steal campaign,
590
00:38:14,944 --> 00:38:17,077
and they would stop
telling the Big Lie.
591
00:38:17,164 --> 00:38:20,123
It was obviously
a completely irrational thought,
592
00:38:20,210 --> 00:38:22,996
but that's what passed
through my mind right there,
593
00:38:23,083 --> 00:38:26,129
because there was this huge
outpouring of emotion
594
00:38:26,216 --> 00:38:27,261
in this standing ovation.
595
00:38:30,177 --> 00:38:33,223
And then it was
over, and then I launched
into my real speech.
596
00:38:33,311 --> 00:38:35,443
Thank you again.
597
00:38:35,530 --> 00:38:40,579
Abraham Lincoln, whose name
is a comfort to us all,
598
00:38:40,666 --> 00:38:42,320
said we've got
the best government...
599
00:38:42,407 --> 00:38:44,931
So still at that
point, we had no reason to think
600
00:38:45,018 --> 00:38:50,240
that there was medieval-style
fighting breaking out outside.
601
00:38:50,328 --> 00:38:53,461
We were ready in the way
you'd be ready in a courtroom
602
00:38:53,548 --> 00:38:56,856
or a classroom,
but we weren't ready
603
00:38:56,943 --> 00:39:00,599
in the way we
should've been for
what was about to take place.
604
00:39:06,344 --> 00:39:08,737
Take their guns!
Take their guns!
605
00:39:18,051 --> 00:39:19,269
Robert Glover,
who's now the Commander
606
00:39:19,705 --> 00:39:21,881
of our Special
Operations Division,
607
00:39:21,968 --> 00:39:24,710
I heard some things in his voice
that I've never heard before.
608
00:39:24,797 --> 00:39:26,233
Pull them! Pull them this way!
609
00:39:37,418 --> 00:39:38,593
Commander Glover, you know,
610
00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:40,334
he knew that we were
losing ground,
611
00:39:40,421 --> 00:39:41,770
and he had no problem
letting us know,
612
00:39:41,857 --> 00:39:43,772
"We're losing ground,
we need to back up."
613
00:39:43,859 --> 00:39:45,339
Because we were outnumbered.
614
00:39:45,426 --> 00:39:47,515
We were outnumbered.
615
00:39:47,602 --> 00:39:51,476
It was such a wide line of
people going back for--
616
00:39:51,563 --> 00:39:53,303
this is an exaggeration,
but for miles--
617
00:39:53,391 --> 00:39:55,262
you know, that's how it felt.
618
00:39:55,349 --> 00:39:57,656
What are you going to do
when we defend our Constitution
619
00:39:57,743 --> 00:39:58,744
with the Second Amendment?
620
00:39:58,831 --> 00:40:01,442
What are you going to do then?
621
00:40:23,986 --> 00:40:26,162
All people must leave
the area immediately.
622
00:40:26,249 --> 00:40:29,818
If you don't follow this order,
it may subject you to arrest.
623
00:40:29,905 --> 00:40:33,169
These police officers were
completely overwhelmed by
624
00:40:33,256 --> 00:40:35,955
the thousands of people that
were next to me, behind me,
625
00:40:36,042 --> 00:40:37,783
around me.
626
00:40:41,003 --> 00:40:43,223
There were definitely
ex-military personnel.
627
00:40:43,310 --> 00:40:45,051
Ex-police.
628
00:40:45,138 --> 00:40:46,835
There were people that
knew what they were doing,
629
00:40:46,922 --> 00:40:50,491
knew how to lead people,
and if I step back,
630
00:40:50,578 --> 00:40:54,016
I can start hearing
people say that, you know,
631
00:40:54,103 --> 00:40:55,583
they are going in.
632
00:40:55,670 --> 00:40:58,281
This is, you know,
"We are going to go inside,
633
00:40:58,368 --> 00:41:02,547
Donald Trump is meeting us here,
and if you don't let us in,
634
00:41:02,634 --> 00:41:04,679
we're going
to fuck some shit up."
635
00:41:04,766 --> 00:41:07,856
Right now,
the people in the Capitol
are sheltering in place.
636
00:41:07,943 --> 00:41:09,336
We have the Capitol.
637
00:41:11,512 --> 00:41:13,688
There's just
so much that's going on.
638
00:41:13,775 --> 00:41:16,909
And from a command standpoint--
a Chief of Police standpoint--
639
00:41:16,996 --> 00:41:19,607
I need to be in a position
where I can command
640
00:41:19,694 --> 00:41:21,261
what's happening
for the entire city,
641
00:41:21,348 --> 00:41:23,437
and the mayor needs to know
642
00:41:23,524 --> 00:41:25,787
exactly what's going on
at that point.
643
00:41:25,874 --> 00:41:28,703
And I told her that I would
meet her at our command center.
644
00:41:35,318 --> 00:41:37,973
Now I have a view of what's
happening at the Capitol.
645
00:41:38,060 --> 00:41:39,845
I have a view of what's
happening at the Ellipse,
646
00:41:39,932 --> 00:41:42,325
I have a view of what's
happening at Freedom Plaza.
647
00:41:42,412 --> 00:41:43,892
I was sending
everything that I had
648
00:41:43,979 --> 00:41:46,068
because our democracy
was under attack.
649
00:41:46,155 --> 00:41:50,203
What we really needed to see
were National Guardsmen
650
00:41:50,290 --> 00:41:51,509
at the US Capitol.
651
00:42:00,474 --> 00:42:02,432
At that point,
we had a phone call
652
00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:04,434
that was convened by myself,
653
00:42:04,522 --> 00:42:05,914
by the Mayor of the District
of Columbia,
654
00:42:06,567 --> 00:42:09,178
several representatives
of the DC National Guard,
655
00:42:09,265 --> 00:42:12,181
the US Capitol Police Chief,
where he essentially was
656
00:42:12,268 --> 00:42:15,271
pleading for assistance
from the National Guard.
657
00:42:15,358 --> 00:42:17,360
I just simply said,
"Wait a minute.
658
00:42:17,447 --> 00:42:21,190
What I hear is the Chief
of the Capitol Police
659
00:42:21,277 --> 00:42:23,932
asking for additional resources
from the National Guard
660
00:42:24,019 --> 00:42:26,979
to be deployed
to the US Capitol.
661
00:42:27,066 --> 00:42:28,720
Chief, is that
what you're saying?'
662
00:42:28,807 --> 00:42:30,722
This is on a bridge call.
663
00:42:30,809 --> 00:42:32,550
He said, "That is exactly
what I'm saying."
664
00:42:32,637 --> 00:42:34,334
Chief Sund said that.
665
00:42:34,421 --> 00:42:38,338
In response to that,
whoever on the other side,
666
00:42:38,425 --> 00:42:42,603
from the representatives
from the Defense Department,
667
00:42:42,690 --> 00:42:46,999
the discussion then switched
to talking about optics,
668
00:42:47,086 --> 00:42:49,349
and boots on the ground,
and what that would look like,
669
00:42:49,436 --> 00:42:52,178
which, you know,
in a crisis situation,
670
00:42:52,265 --> 00:42:55,181
I don't care what it looks like.
It looks like help to me.
671
00:43:11,066 --> 00:43:13,982
So, I asked all who
were on this call,
672
00:43:14,069 --> 00:43:16,811
"Are you saying that you're
not going to deploy personnel?"
673
00:43:16,898 --> 00:43:19,858
"No, we're not saying that,
what we are saying is that
674
00:43:19,945 --> 00:43:21,773
optics, and this and that
and so forth."
675
00:43:21,860 --> 00:43:23,296
It was very disturbing.
676
00:43:53,543 --> 00:43:57,635
This is a bad situation,
we have to do the best we can
677
00:43:57,722 --> 00:44:01,160
to defend this Capitol,
to defend our democracy
678
00:44:01,247 --> 00:44:02,422
with everything that we got.
679
00:44:08,167 --> 00:44:11,257
Apparently, the National
Guard were blocks away.
680
00:44:11,736 --> 00:44:14,608
That makes me mad,
because I don't even know-
681
00:44:14,695 --> 00:44:18,786
I don't even wanna know
how many officers were there
682
00:44:18,873 --> 00:44:20,135
that could have helped us...
683
00:44:21,876 --> 00:44:23,748
I don't even wanna know,
because that will just
684
00:44:25,358 --> 00:44:26,664
blow me up.
685
00:44:28,100 --> 00:44:31,059
As someone who served six years
in the Virginia National Guard,
686
00:44:31,146 --> 00:44:34,149
I was aware of the National
Guard and how they could
687
00:44:34,236 --> 00:44:35,803
possibly respond.
688
00:44:35,890 --> 00:44:38,980
I also knew that they
take time to respond.
689
00:44:39,067 --> 00:44:42,201
I don't know why anyone
would've delayed that.
690
00:44:48,337 --> 00:44:52,254
My officers didn't know that
not only were they breaching
691
00:44:52,341 --> 00:44:56,041
the West Side of the Capitol,
the East Side of the Capitol
692
00:44:56,128 --> 00:44:57,695
was also being breached.
693
00:45:05,441 --> 00:45:09,010
USA! USA! USA!
694
00:45:18,237 --> 00:45:20,761
So, they had essentially
been surrounded.
695
00:45:26,245 --> 00:45:29,335
It just kept getting crazier
and crazier and crazier...
696
00:45:42,957 --> 00:45:44,611
We're taking it!
697
00:45:44,698 --> 00:45:46,004
We're storming the House!
698
00:45:50,443 --> 00:45:54,055
I was saying to people,
"Where are we going?
What are we doing?"
699
00:45:54,142 --> 00:45:57,885
It was a lot of, we, we,
we, we, we to comfort them,
700
00:45:57,972 --> 00:45:59,669
you know?
701
00:45:59,757 --> 00:46:02,847
And it's also a way to comfort
myself to like, you know,
702
00:46:02,934 --> 00:46:06,198
so I can feel safer to let
you know that I am not a threat.
703
00:46:06,285 --> 00:46:08,417
I have cameras,
but not a threat.
704
00:46:38,447 --> 00:46:39,797
It's gonna be a stampede.
705
00:46:40,275 --> 00:46:41,537
In my mind, I'm like, "I don't
know if I'm being dramatic,
706
00:46:41,624 --> 00:46:43,191
but this might turn
into a stampede."
707
00:46:43,278 --> 00:46:46,020
I don't know if we can
control this or contain it.
708
00:47:13,395 --> 00:47:18,966
I remember watching as police
officers were clearly exhausted.
709
00:47:19,053 --> 00:47:20,533
It started to look abnormal.
710
00:47:22,535 --> 00:47:24,972
And then there was like
a beeping in the office.
711
00:47:27,235 --> 00:47:29,150
I guess there's some sort of
security device in the office
712
00:47:29,237 --> 00:47:31,718
that I never knew existed.
713
00:47:31,805 --> 00:47:33,415
Then we started getting
directives from
714
00:47:33,502 --> 00:47:35,765
our chief of staff,
from the office manager.
715
00:47:35,853 --> 00:47:37,985
She told me to wear flats,
716
00:47:38,072 --> 00:47:39,682
and she told me
to pack up my bags.
717
00:47:54,132 --> 00:47:57,396
Person outside has attempted
to enter on the Senate side
718
00:47:57,483 --> 00:47:59,485
of the building.
719
00:47:59,572 --> 00:48:01,966
We had a television in the
office, we also had windows,
720
00:48:02,053 --> 00:48:04,446
so we could see that they
were clearly, you know,
721
00:48:04,533 --> 00:48:05,795
closing in on us.
722
00:48:11,105 --> 00:48:14,413
But despite the beeping,
despite huddling
723
00:48:14,500 --> 00:48:18,025
in the Congressman's office,
nothing made it real
724
00:48:18,112 --> 00:48:20,549
until those people
actually got inside.
725
00:48:33,432 --> 00:48:38,219
I first got a text from a
friend in California saying,
726
00:48:38,306 --> 00:48:39,829
"Are you okay?
Is everything alright?"
727
00:48:39,917 --> 00:48:42,136
And I said, "Yes,
what do you mean?"
728
00:48:42,223 --> 00:48:45,096
And she said, "There's
a breach in the Capitol.
729
00:48:45,183 --> 00:48:47,272
There's violence outside."
730
00:48:47,359 --> 00:48:49,317
And I looked around the room
and I noticed that
731
00:48:49,404 --> 00:48:51,972
lots of people
were getting messages
732
00:48:52,059 --> 00:48:53,756
and people
were beginning to talk.
733
00:49:06,856 --> 00:49:10,860
Within a couple of minutes,
Speaker Pelosi's security detail
734
00:49:10,948 --> 00:49:12,950
escorted her off of the floor.
735
00:49:25,484 --> 00:49:27,442
Some people on our side
of the aisle began to scream,
736
00:49:27,529 --> 00:49:30,402
"This is because of you,
this is what you wanted."
737
00:49:32,970 --> 00:49:35,581
I immediately looked back up
into the gallery.
738
00:49:35,668 --> 00:49:37,800
Tabitha and Hank
were no longer there.
739
00:50:05,785 --> 00:50:07,874
Oh, Nancy!
740
00:50:07,961 --> 00:50:09,832
Where are you, Nancy?
741
00:50:09,919 --> 00:50:12,966
Our office was right above
Nancy Pelosi's office,
742
00:50:13,053 --> 00:50:14,707
the Speaker of the House.
743
00:50:14,794 --> 00:50:17,797
Three of my colleagues went out,
and our staff assistant
744
00:50:17,884 --> 00:50:22,541
said she came
face to face with one of
the insurrectionists.
745
00:50:22,628 --> 00:50:25,065
We were in the room,
and she was banging on the door,
746
00:50:25,152 --> 00:50:26,458
and she said, "They're inside.
747
00:50:26,545 --> 00:50:28,416
They're inside. Let me in!"
748
00:50:28,503 --> 00:50:30,201
They were extremely rattled.
749
00:50:30,288 --> 00:50:32,072
And they said that we
needed to stay here.
750
00:50:32,159 --> 00:50:34,074
Like we cannot leave.
751
00:50:34,161 --> 00:50:36,511
That was, I think
the turning point for me.
752
00:50:42,039 --> 00:50:44,476
I called Julie,
my Chief of Staff,
753
00:50:44,563 --> 00:50:48,132
and she said they were
back in Steny's office.
754
00:50:49,307 --> 00:50:51,265
They had locked the door.
755
00:50:51,352 --> 00:50:54,703
She said they had pushed all the
furniture up against the door.
756
00:50:59,447 --> 00:51:03,190
The kids were hiding under,
757
00:51:03,277 --> 00:51:05,627
uh, a desk.
758
00:51:05,714 --> 00:51:10,284
And I learned later that Julie
had taken the-- the fire pick
759
00:51:10,371 --> 00:51:13,679
outta the fireplace and was
wielding it as-- as a weapon.
760
00:51:13,766 --> 00:51:16,247
And I told her to protect
them with her life.
761
00:51:19,119 --> 00:51:20,425
This is our fucking house.
762
00:51:20,512 --> 00:51:21,774
Our house.
763
00:51:28,824 --> 00:51:30,652
I heard the elevator open,
764
00:51:30,739 --> 00:51:32,915
and I heard them
come up the stairwell,
765
00:51:33,002 --> 00:51:35,570
and so we decided
to stay in place,
766
00:51:35,657 --> 00:51:39,313
turn the lights out and to
just be as quiet as possible
767
00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:41,010
and to barricade the doors.
768
00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:44,971
I had to assume the worst.
769
00:51:45,058 --> 00:51:47,147
I had to assume these
people were armed.
770
00:51:48,322 --> 00:51:49,889
You kind of go
into survival mode,
771
00:51:49,976 --> 00:51:52,370
like I remember essentially
casing the office, like,
772
00:51:52,457 --> 00:51:54,546
"What can I use as a weapon?"
773
00:51:54,633 --> 00:51:57,679
I remember feeling like
774
00:51:57,766 --> 00:52:02,380
whatever is in here that is
heavy is what I'll have to use,
775
00:52:02,467 --> 00:52:04,860
you know, if it comes to that.
776
00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:22,530
We want Trump! We want Trump!
777
00:52:27,274 --> 00:52:28,884
Fuck you,
you fuckin' tyrants!
778
00:52:34,890 --> 00:52:38,198
Whenever I see footage from that
day, it makes my heart race.
779
00:52:38,285 --> 00:52:40,113
You know, I can feel blood--
my blood pressure shoot up,
780
00:52:43,247 --> 00:52:46,598
and it makes me angry.
781
00:52:46,685 --> 00:52:49,166
Lay down your weapons!
782
00:52:49,253 --> 00:52:52,386
Those weapons belong to us!
783
00:52:52,473 --> 00:52:55,084
That helmet, 4-5-1-8,
belongs to me!
784
00:52:55,172 --> 00:52:59,263
Give me my helmet!
Give me my helmet!
785
00:52:59,350 --> 00:53:01,003
Now, Hodges!
786
00:53:01,090 --> 00:53:03,397
D. Hodges,
lay down your weapons!
787
00:53:03,484 --> 00:53:07,488
4-5-1-8,
give me my helmet!
788
00:53:07,575 --> 00:53:08,663
I want my helmet!
789
00:53:08,750 --> 00:53:10,926
Gimme my helmet!
790
00:53:11,013 --> 00:53:13,494
That helmet belongs to me!
791
00:53:13,581 --> 00:53:15,583
I paid for that helmet!
792
00:53:15,670 --> 00:53:17,585
I paid for that vest!
793
00:53:17,672 --> 00:53:19,196
I paid for your salary!
794
00:53:19,283 --> 00:53:20,284
Traitor!
795
00:53:24,549 --> 00:53:26,812
You're a bunch of sheep, sheep!
796
00:53:26,899 --> 00:53:29,684
There was just sensory
overload of threats that,
797
00:53:29,771 --> 00:53:31,904
I'm scanning the crowd
rather than paying attention to
798
00:53:31,991 --> 00:53:34,211
what people are shouting at me
because I'm constantly looking
799
00:53:34,298 --> 00:53:36,430
for, uh, someone who's about
to bring out a gun or a knife
800
00:53:36,517 --> 00:53:39,128
or something because I know
that they have them on them.
801
00:53:39,216 --> 00:53:42,306
And I just have to hope
that if I see that I can
react before they do.
802
00:53:44,743 --> 00:53:47,441
At one point I look over my
shoulder and I see the officers
803
00:53:47,528 --> 00:53:50,052
trying to hold them back
and failing
804
00:53:50,139 --> 00:53:52,446
because their numbers
are overwhelming.
805
00:53:58,147 --> 00:54:02,064
At that point, I see
the line break, essentially.
806
00:54:13,946 --> 00:54:15,556
You better run, cops!
807
00:54:39,406 --> 00:54:41,539
Each officer just engages
in a pitched battle
808
00:54:41,626 --> 00:54:43,628
with whatever's
in front of them.
809
00:54:43,715 --> 00:54:46,326
People swinging things at our
heads-- sticks, metal poles.
810
00:54:52,550 --> 00:54:55,204
One Sergeant was hit
with a cattle prod.
811
00:54:56,423 --> 00:54:58,556
There was a sledgehammer.
812
00:54:58,643 --> 00:55:00,079
I had someone try
to gouge my eye out.
813
00:55:05,127 --> 00:55:07,826
These people like to believe
that they support blue lives,
814
00:55:07,913 --> 00:55:12,047
but someone came up to me
while I was surrounded and said,
815
00:55:12,134 --> 00:55:13,875
"Things are gonna get real bad.
816
00:55:13,962 --> 00:55:17,096
We need to get you out of here.
What can I do to help?"
817
00:55:17,183 --> 00:55:19,141
And I said, "Go home."
818
00:55:19,228 --> 00:55:20,926
And he said,
"Not gonna happen."
819
00:55:23,015 --> 00:55:25,365
And at that point,
there's not much left to say.
820
00:55:40,815 --> 00:55:41,903
Let's go, MPD
double time inside.
821
00:55:41,990 --> 00:55:44,906
Let's go.
Let's go, MPD.
822
00:55:44,993 --> 00:55:46,734
Stop fucking looking
at them, let's go!
823
00:55:46,821 --> 00:55:49,258
Get inside.
Goddamn, let's get inside!
824
00:55:51,739 --> 00:55:54,829
To be honest,
I don't even remember
getting inside the Capitol.
825
00:55:54,916 --> 00:55:57,049
We were funneled into
the Capitol at some point.
826
00:56:00,139 --> 00:56:01,619
I don't know anything
about this building.
827
00:56:02,184 --> 00:56:04,273
I remember running up to Capitol
officers, and there was
828
00:56:04,361 --> 00:56:07,102
only a couple of 'em. I would
say, "How do I get here
and here?"
829
00:56:07,189 --> 00:56:09,540
"I don't know.
I don't work in this building."
830
00:56:35,479 --> 00:56:37,089
Our house! Whose house?
831
00:56:37,176 --> 00:56:38,960
Our house! Whose house?
832
00:56:39,047 --> 00:56:40,309
Our house! Whose house?
833
00:56:40,875 --> 00:56:42,442
Our house! Whose house?
834
00:56:42,529 --> 00:56:44,183
Our house! Whose house?
835
00:56:44,270 --> 00:56:45,663
Our house! Whose house?
836
00:56:45,750 --> 00:56:47,882
Our house! Whose house?
837
00:56:47,969 --> 00:56:51,190
There were two sets of doors
in the Congressman's office,
838
00:56:51,277 --> 00:56:52,887
so my colleagues
on the other side of the office
839
00:56:52,974 --> 00:56:56,761
barricaded one set,
we barricaded the other set.
840
00:56:59,503 --> 00:57:03,115
Um, and you know, there was
just a lot of, you know,
841
00:57:03,202 --> 00:57:05,639
I had a coworker who's
a really good friend of mine,
842
00:57:05,726 --> 00:57:08,425
and she was, you know,
very, very pregnant.
843
00:57:08,512 --> 00:57:09,904
So, you know,
she couldn't do it.
844
00:57:09,991 --> 00:57:13,995
Um, and we had
photographers in the room.
845
00:57:14,082 --> 00:57:16,171
Some of them were taking
pictures instead of helping.
846
00:57:16,258 --> 00:57:18,652
And I remember being really,
really annoyed with them
847
00:57:18,739 --> 00:57:20,959
at the time, 'cause
I was like, you know,
848
00:57:21,046 --> 00:57:22,482
"This is not the time
for your Pulitzer.
849
00:57:22,569 --> 00:57:24,876
Like, this is life or death."
850
00:57:24,963 --> 00:57:26,486
And I mean, in hindsight,
I guess it's,
851
00:57:26,573 --> 00:57:27,966
it's good that
it was documented.
852
00:57:28,053 --> 00:57:31,012
But in the moment,
we are possibly, you know,
853
00:57:31,099 --> 00:57:33,101
fighting for our lives.
854
00:57:33,188 --> 00:57:35,277
We don't know what's
on the other side of that door.
855
00:57:47,768 --> 00:57:51,032
I vividly remember
hearing someone say,
856
00:57:51,119 --> 00:57:53,557
"They're hiding from us,"
and like kind of laughing.
857
00:57:53,644 --> 00:57:55,515
It felt as if they were like
taunting us, like, you know,
858
00:57:55,602 --> 00:57:57,343
"Hello, anybody in here?"
859
00:57:57,430 --> 00:57:58,910
And they were just banging,
banging, banging on the door.
860
00:57:58,997 --> 00:58:02,043
And every time they
would bang on the door...
861
00:58:17,929 --> 00:58:23,238
Um, you think you're over it,
and then you're not.
862
00:58:23,325 --> 00:58:27,678
Um, I just remember every time
they banged on the door,
863
00:58:27,765 --> 00:58:29,157
um, you know,
864
00:58:29,244 --> 00:58:32,291
we would all just run up
and push the door--
865
00:58:32,378 --> 00:58:35,773
I mean, push the--
the table against the door.
866
00:58:35,860 --> 00:58:39,080
Um, and those were
the most terrifying times.
867
00:58:44,564 --> 00:58:47,175
Hey guys, hey hey!
868
00:59:02,147 --> 00:59:05,498
USA! USA! USA!
869
00:59:05,585 --> 00:59:08,893
USA! USA!
USA!
870
00:59:11,504 --> 00:59:12,853
We need people.
871
00:59:22,384 --> 00:59:24,082
At some point, I finally
make it into the tunnel.
872
00:59:27,302 --> 00:59:28,739
Push!
873
00:59:28,826 --> 00:59:30,784
There was no order
to go in there.
874
00:59:30,871 --> 00:59:33,134
I didn't hear about
any level of importance
875
00:59:33,221 --> 00:59:34,919
because I didn't have
my radio at that point.
876
00:59:35,006 --> 00:59:37,791
It was just where the fight was,
and I knew I needed to go to it.
877
00:59:41,403 --> 00:59:43,710
Now, myself, these officers
that I'm with,
878
00:59:43,797 --> 00:59:45,146
we're essentially trapped
in the Capitol
879
00:59:45,233 --> 00:59:47,584
because you have
these thousands of people
880
00:59:47,671 --> 00:59:50,021
that are now aggressively
trying to get in.
881
00:59:54,242 --> 01:00:00,205
It felt like a, for-real
riot, like pushing back.
882
01:00:05,863 --> 01:00:07,647
Felt like it was organized
883
01:00:07,734 --> 01:00:09,649
and people knew
what they were doing.
884
01:00:09,736 --> 01:00:12,304
You just don't go, you know,
there with tactical gear on
885
01:00:12,391 --> 01:00:14,523
and looking like
you're military personnel
886
01:00:14,611 --> 01:00:16,700
without knowing
what you were doing.
887
01:00:16,917 --> 01:00:18,832
Supply lines coming through.
888
01:00:21,792 --> 01:00:23,924
Keep in mind,
we have the vice president
889
01:00:24,011 --> 01:00:27,145
and other members
of Congress in the building.
890
01:00:27,232 --> 01:00:29,930
And if the building
is surrounded
891
01:00:30,017 --> 01:00:34,761
and a person or group
of people access the tunnel,
892
01:00:34,848 --> 01:00:37,677
it puts the leaders of
our democracy in a very,
893
01:00:37,764 --> 01:00:40,332
very, very bad situation.
894
01:00:49,515 --> 01:00:52,170
We were all just pushing
the table against the door
895
01:00:52,257 --> 01:00:54,389
with all our might.
896
01:00:54,476 --> 01:00:56,740
How do we know that
we're not running to the door
897
01:00:56,827 --> 01:00:59,394
and they're not about to,
like, shoot a bullet through.
898
01:00:59,481 --> 01:01:01,701
We had literally no idea.
899
01:01:04,573 --> 01:01:06,097
The news started to spread.
900
01:01:06,184 --> 01:01:08,490
And I just remember
getting message
901
01:01:08,577 --> 01:01:12,016
after message after message
asking, you know, if I was okay.
902
01:01:12,103 --> 01:01:15,019
And I remember saying to
each person, just please pray.
903
01:01:20,981 --> 01:01:22,330
Meantime on the floor,
904
01:01:22,417 --> 01:01:24,593
it was total chaos
and bedlam by then.
905
01:01:26,378 --> 01:01:29,686
There was this
extraordinary pounding,
906
01:01:29,773 --> 01:01:33,428
barreling sound
coming at the center door
907
01:01:33,515 --> 01:01:34,995
of the House of Representatives.
908
01:01:36,344 --> 01:01:37,955
Everybody stay down.
909
01:01:46,224 --> 01:01:49,270
I'll never forget that sound.
It was really haunting.
910
01:01:49,357 --> 01:01:52,099
Just the sound
of basically a mob,
911
01:01:52,186 --> 01:01:55,233
trying to barrel its way in,
smashing up against the door.
912
01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:58,149
And people began
to run towards the door.
913
01:01:59,237 --> 01:02:01,718
Then some Capitol officers
came in with their guns
914
01:02:01,805 --> 01:02:03,632
and told all of us to get back.
915
01:02:03,720 --> 01:02:06,548
And they stood by the door
with their guns drawn.
916
01:02:08,899 --> 01:02:11,336
Everybody was imagining that
somebody was gonna come in
917
01:02:11,423 --> 01:02:14,861
with an AR 15, that there
would be a mass shooting
918
01:02:14,948 --> 01:02:16,863
and that it would
be focused on
919
01:02:16,950 --> 01:02:19,083
the Democratic
side of the aisle
920
01:02:19,170 --> 01:02:20,867
and the Democratic galleries.
921
01:02:20,954 --> 01:02:23,740
So, they were telling us all
to take off our pins.
922
01:02:23,827 --> 01:02:25,742
These are the little pins
that get us into the buildings.
923
01:02:25,829 --> 01:02:27,221
And they're telling us,
take your pins off.
924
01:02:27,308 --> 01:02:28,832
It makes you recognizable.
925
01:02:28,919 --> 01:02:30,311
And then the Democrats
were saying,
926
01:02:30,398 --> 01:02:32,313
get off of the Democratic
side of the aisle.
927
01:02:32,400 --> 01:02:37,057
USA. USA. USA. USA.
928
01:02:38,929 --> 01:02:42,106
USA. USA.
929
01:02:45,457 --> 01:02:48,677
Meantime, we were all being
shepherded towards the front.
930
01:02:50,767 --> 01:02:54,248
And we got up to the Speaker's
lobby and we went to the right.
931
01:02:54,335 --> 01:02:58,165
To the left is where there
were a handful of officers.
932
01:02:58,252 --> 01:03:01,386
And then the mob was on the
other side of the doors there.
933
01:03:02,648 --> 01:03:04,084
Let me in!
934
01:03:10,221 --> 01:03:13,311
That's, um...
935
01:03:13,398 --> 01:03:15,661
that's where one of
the protesters got killed.
936
01:03:15,748 --> 01:03:17,619
Break that down!
937
01:03:17,706 --> 01:03:18,882
Break it down. Break that!
938
01:03:18,969 --> 01:03:20,405
Let's go.
939
01:03:40,468 --> 01:03:41,818
That sound like
a fucking gun shot.
940
01:03:42,775 --> 01:03:44,037
Oh, shit.
941
01:03:44,124 --> 01:03:47,780
Oh, my God,
a woman has been shot.
942
01:03:59,792 --> 01:04:01,533
Where's she hit?
943
01:04:01,620 --> 01:04:04,449
Back Up. Back up.
944
01:04:04,536 --> 01:04:06,146
Yo medic, where's she hit?
945
01:04:06,233 --> 01:04:07,495
We can't save her.
946
01:04:07,756 --> 01:04:09,367
Get the fuck back.
We can't save her!
947
01:04:09,454 --> 01:04:10,759
You guys gotta calm down.
948
01:04:10,847 --> 01:04:12,587
We got blood on the floor.
949
01:04:12,674 --> 01:04:15,025
There's blood
on the floor of our fucking...
950
01:04:22,467 --> 01:04:24,208
Report of one shot
in the Capitol.
951
01:04:24,295 --> 01:04:26,253
Report of a shooting
in the Capitol,
952
01:04:26,340 --> 01:04:27,994
trying to ascertain
information now.
953
01:04:28,081 --> 01:04:30,127
Capitol command of recon,
report of one shot.
954
01:04:30,214 --> 01:04:32,216
Capitol command of recon,
is this gonna be
955
01:04:32,303 --> 01:04:34,522
an active shooter event,
or is this just one shot?
956
01:04:34,609 --> 01:04:36,002
I need more information.
957
01:04:36,089 --> 01:04:37,612
This will be a
report of one shot.
958
01:04:37,699 --> 01:04:39,745
Unknown about
the victim or the location.
959
01:04:41,399 --> 01:04:43,183
We just didn't know.
960
01:04:43,270 --> 01:04:45,446
We were trying
to get confirmation.
961
01:04:45,533 --> 01:04:47,405
Is anyone shot in the Capitol?
962
01:04:47,492 --> 01:04:51,191
Were those shots fired?
Were they some type
of incendiary device?
963
01:04:51,278 --> 01:04:53,150
We don't know.
Was it just a distraction
964
01:04:53,237 --> 01:04:54,978
to kind of get us
in a different area?
965
01:04:55,065 --> 01:04:56,980
We did not know.
966
01:04:57,067 --> 01:05:00,897
And I think that was probably
the scariest thing, not knowing.
967
01:05:00,984 --> 01:05:03,725
We the people! We the people!
968
01:05:05,814 --> 01:05:06,946
This is...
969
01:05:14,954 --> 01:05:17,652
It makes you seek
answers. So, what do I do?
970
01:05:17,739 --> 01:05:19,393
Of course,
I'm talking to people.
971
01:05:19,480 --> 01:05:21,918
I interview people right
then, right on the steps.
972
01:05:22,005 --> 01:05:23,397
You know, right there.
973
01:05:25,356 --> 01:05:28,402
Yeah... look at 'em.
974
01:05:28,489 --> 01:05:31,623
And you know, I met this woman,
we were probably 10 feet away
975
01:05:31,710 --> 01:05:34,669
from, you know, where people
were trying to get in.
976
01:05:34,756 --> 01:05:37,759
She sounded so fucking
nice and so sweet.
977
01:05:37,846 --> 01:05:39,892
And she was so polite.
978
01:05:39,979 --> 01:05:42,112
You okay, baby?
Yeah. I'm good.
979
01:05:42,199 --> 01:05:43,809
I'm prepared to die.
Huh?
980
01:05:43,896 --> 01:05:46,116
Yes, I'm prepared to die.
Wait a second.
981
01:05:46,203 --> 01:05:50,729
For my country, and my children
and my grandchildren, all day.
982
01:05:50,816 --> 01:05:52,731
You're saying you're
prepared to die today?
983
01:05:52,818 --> 01:05:55,952
Yes, I love America.
984
01:05:56,039 --> 01:05:57,823
And I was like, what?
985
01:05:57,910 --> 01:05:59,216
You prepared to die?
986
01:06:01,914 --> 01:06:04,699
I could not fucking believe
987
01:06:04,786 --> 01:06:06,963
what the fuck
I was seeing and hearing.
988
01:06:12,142 --> 01:06:14,144
I felt embarrassed, you know,
989
01:06:14,231 --> 01:06:16,668
for all of us, you know,
990
01:06:16,755 --> 01:06:21,412
for all of America, you know,
to hear what I was hearing,
991
01:06:21,499 --> 01:06:24,981
to see what I was seeing, to
document what I was documenting.
992
01:06:36,253 --> 01:06:40,909
Stop it! Stop it! Stop it!
993
01:06:45,740 --> 01:06:46,915
We were all scared.
994
01:07:01,278 --> 01:07:03,628
The manpower we had inside
the tunnel that day,
995
01:07:03,715 --> 01:07:05,717
which seemed like
a lot, wasn't enough.
996
01:07:05,804 --> 01:07:10,330
It was about maybe four
or five-ish people could
fit in there wide.
997
01:07:10,417 --> 01:07:13,290
And it was a few dozen
officers in there
998
01:07:13,377 --> 01:07:15,335
trying to hold back
the crowd outside.
999
01:07:30,916 --> 01:07:32,700
You could see officers who were
1000
01:07:32,787 --> 01:07:35,355
getting injured at the front,
falling out, coming to the back.
1001
01:07:37,792 --> 01:07:40,882
The boiler room in the Capitol
became our decon room.
1002
01:07:43,233 --> 01:07:45,626
There were so many officers that
had their hands on their knees
1003
01:07:45,713 --> 01:07:49,282
because they couldn't see
because they're shut down
1004
01:07:49,369 --> 01:07:51,284
from the chemicals that
were just used against them.
1005
01:07:51,371 --> 01:07:53,939
And as those officers fell back,
we would move forward
1006
01:07:54,026 --> 01:07:55,810
and continue moving forward
1007
01:07:55,897 --> 01:08:01,860
until it was your turn
at the front, essentially.
1008
01:08:03,731 --> 01:08:04,950
It felt like war.
1009
01:08:18,746 --> 01:08:21,619
I'm seeing scenes unfold
1010
01:08:22,750 --> 01:08:24,752
all around me.
1011
01:08:24,839 --> 01:08:26,885
This is our country!
1012
01:08:26,972 --> 01:08:29,148
This is our country!
1013
01:08:29,235 --> 01:08:30,584
Yeah!
1014
01:08:32,847 --> 01:08:34,936
I'm seeing anxiety.
1015
01:08:37,722 --> 01:08:39,550
I'm seeing sadness.
1016
01:08:39,637 --> 01:08:42,118
I'm seeing pain.
1017
01:08:52,911 --> 01:08:54,130
You know...
1018
01:08:55,740 --> 01:08:58,830
twice when
I was there, you know,
1019
01:08:58,917 --> 01:09:01,180
I felt the emotion to cry.
1020
01:09:03,226 --> 01:09:05,097
And quite frankly,
probably I didn't stop myself.
1021
01:09:05,184 --> 01:09:07,839
Some shit distracted me
from that emotion.
1022
01:09:07,926 --> 01:09:10,146
It's like, Oh, shit,
there's a hockey stick.
1023
01:09:10,233 --> 01:09:12,409
Oh, shit, where the fuck did
they get a ladder from?
1024
01:09:12,496 --> 01:09:14,150
Oh, shit,
what is this tubing?
1025
01:09:14,237 --> 01:09:15,803
Where the hell
did that come from?
1026
01:09:15,890 --> 01:09:17,979
The guy's head is all red
from pepper spray
1027
01:09:18,066 --> 01:09:19,503
and looks like he can't breathe.
1028
01:09:19,590 --> 01:09:22,288
Oh, shit, I'm getting
soaked up by the gas,
1029
01:09:22,375 --> 01:09:24,508
and I can't fucking breathe,
1030
01:09:24,595 --> 01:09:26,466
and this shit hurts my eyes.
1031
01:09:26,553 --> 01:09:29,077
And why are people
keep returning
1032
01:09:29,165 --> 01:09:32,255
back to the front lines
to do it over and over again?
1033
01:09:32,342 --> 01:09:34,474
What is, what are they thinking?
1034
01:09:43,788 --> 01:09:46,051
I knew that this had to be
the biggest news story
1035
01:09:46,138 --> 01:09:47,705
in the world right now,
1036
01:09:47,792 --> 01:09:49,663
the United States
Capitol being under siege.
1037
01:09:49,750 --> 01:09:55,016
So, someone had to be trying
to get us help somewhere.
1038
01:09:55,103 --> 01:09:56,714
I was thinking, you know,
1039
01:09:56,801 --> 01:09:58,890
I hope I can hold on until
reinforcements gets here.
1040
01:10:00,413 --> 01:10:03,111
Our house! Our house!
1041
01:10:20,607 --> 01:10:22,870
We went down some stairwells,
1042
01:10:22,957 --> 01:10:23,958
and they tried to keep us
together,
1043
01:10:24,045 --> 01:10:26,874
and we were running for safety.
1044
01:10:32,489 --> 01:10:35,492
All that shit...!
1045
01:10:35,579 --> 01:10:39,670
At that point, I was most
concerned for Tabitha,
1046
01:10:39,974 --> 01:10:42,325
Hank, and Julie
and wanting to make sure
1047
01:10:42,412 --> 01:10:44,805
that they would get outta
that room, which was
still where the mob was.
1048
01:10:44,892 --> 01:10:49,201
USA! USA! USA!
1049
01:10:49,288 --> 01:10:51,508
And I just kept doing the same
thing over and over again,
1050
01:10:51,595 --> 01:10:54,250
calling the Capitol
police, calling Julie.
1051
01:10:54,337 --> 01:10:57,078
I was obviously profoundly
concerned for them.
1052
01:11:06,262 --> 01:11:08,829
I just wanted to make sure
they were in touch
1053
01:11:08,916 --> 01:11:12,180
so they knew who to open
the door for and who not to.
1054
01:11:32,288 --> 01:11:34,681
These people had made it clear
that they wanted
1055
01:11:34,768 --> 01:11:36,553
to kill certain
members of Congress.
1056
01:11:36,640 --> 01:11:38,598
And even if they got one person,
1057
01:11:38,685 --> 01:11:40,687
that would change
the balance of power.
1058
01:11:40,774 --> 01:11:43,168
So, you know,
1059
01:11:43,255 --> 01:11:46,214
I was definitely motivated to--
1060
01:11:48,869 --> 01:11:50,001
to win the fight.
1061
01:11:53,396 --> 01:11:56,312
I found myself at the front
of the line in the tunnel...
1062
01:11:59,402 --> 01:12:02,622
and I braced myself
against the doorframe
1063
01:12:02,709 --> 01:12:06,322
so that any backward
force I experienced
1064
01:12:06,409 --> 01:12:08,106
wasn't pushed
on the officers behind me,
1065
01:12:08,193 --> 01:12:10,456
but rather against the frame
of the building itself.
1066
01:12:23,251 --> 01:12:25,515
Unfortunately,
it backfired on me.
1067
01:12:25,602 --> 01:12:27,081
My arms were trapped.
1068
01:12:27,168 --> 01:12:30,171
I was essentially
standing up straight,
1069
01:12:30,258 --> 01:12:33,697
unable to defend myself
and at their mercy.
1070
01:12:54,282 --> 01:12:56,807
The man to my front, I remember
1071
01:12:56,894 --> 01:12:59,853
him just screaming at me
1072
01:12:59,940 --> 01:13:03,770
and, like, spit
or some kind of foam
1073
01:13:03,857 --> 01:13:05,685
coming out of his mouth.
1074
01:13:05,772 --> 01:13:09,472
It sounds, like, made up,
but that's what I remember.
1075
01:13:20,700 --> 01:13:23,442
He also was able
to wrestle away my baton
1076
01:13:23,529 --> 01:13:26,140
and beat me in the head
with it.
1077
01:13:26,227 --> 01:13:30,971
I could taste blood
coming out of my mouth.
1078
01:13:37,325 --> 01:13:42,026
Heave ho! Heave ho!
1079
01:13:42,113 --> 01:13:48,511
Heave ho! Heave ho!
1080
01:13:48,598 --> 01:13:53,167
I could feel just starting
to lose all of my perception,
1081
01:13:54,952 --> 01:13:57,476
and I was worried
that I would fall out there
1082
01:13:57,563 --> 01:14:00,566
and become a liability to my
colleagues and then, you know,
1083
01:14:00,653 --> 01:14:03,743
eventually be dragged out
and killed.
1084
01:14:03,830 --> 01:14:04,962
Um...
1085
01:14:08,748 --> 01:14:11,272
I remember someone just
chanting, "Fight for Trump.
1086
01:14:11,359 --> 01:14:17,322
Fight for Trump.
Fight for Trump."
1087
01:14:25,809 --> 01:14:28,464
Thankfully, the other officers
behind me heard me
1088
01:14:28,551 --> 01:14:31,379
and were able to create
enough space to get
me out of there.
1089
01:14:34,382 --> 01:14:35,949
Everyone who worked
that day was injured.
1090
01:14:36,036 --> 01:14:37,255
Everyone was attacked.
1091
01:14:41,868 --> 01:14:44,044
Sometimes at great
personal cost.
1092
01:14:50,311 --> 01:14:54,359
The difference between
your typical angry riot
1093
01:14:54,446 --> 01:14:57,101
versus this was, this was...
1094
01:14:57,188 --> 01:14:58,450
it was personal.
1095
01:14:58,537 --> 01:15:01,235
And they were not stopping.
1096
01:15:01,322 --> 01:15:04,804
I wanna go home, and I want
every single officer that's
here to go home.
1097
01:15:04,891 --> 01:15:08,155
And my job right now,
1098
01:15:08,242 --> 01:15:11,550
their job right now is to figure
out a way to make that happen.
1099
01:15:11,637 --> 01:15:15,032
They fought like
hell, for hours.
1100
01:15:15,119 --> 01:15:17,730
That's not training that
police officers normally get.
1101
01:15:17,817 --> 01:15:19,950
Maybe the military,
they're trained for war,
1102
01:15:20,037 --> 01:15:23,170
fighting for hours,
days, months on end.
1103
01:15:23,257 --> 01:15:26,347
The fight that these
officers had in them,
1104
01:15:26,434 --> 01:15:29,307
even when they were injured,
to see them injured
1105
01:15:29,394 --> 01:15:31,701
and then get back
into the fight.
1106
01:15:37,620 --> 01:15:40,623
The fight wasn't over yet, and
the fight needed everybody
1107
01:15:40,710 --> 01:15:44,235
that was able.
And I'm not dead yet.
1108
01:15:44,322 --> 01:15:47,151
Uh, I was still,
uh, still in the fight.
1109
01:15:50,371 --> 01:15:54,201
Freedom, freedom, freedom.
1110
01:15:57,248 --> 01:16:00,120
It was like complete
chaos all around me.
1111
01:16:01,687 --> 01:16:04,734
I'm seeing one of
the darkest days
1112
01:16:04,821 --> 01:16:07,127
in modern history.
1113
01:16:07,214 --> 01:16:10,043
I was scared
for my fucking life,
1114
01:16:10,130 --> 01:16:12,480
but all I can think about is
1115
01:16:12,568 --> 01:16:15,266
making sure that I document
1116
01:16:15,353 --> 01:16:17,921
what's going on
to the best of my abilities.
1117
01:16:39,333 --> 01:16:40,596
Back up.
1118
01:17:43,702 --> 01:17:45,965
When I captured this image
1119
01:17:46,052 --> 01:17:49,447
and saw the police officer
that I now know
1120
01:17:49,534 --> 01:17:51,101
to be Michael Fanone,
1121
01:17:51,623 --> 01:17:53,843
get pulled down
1122
01:17:53,930 --> 01:17:58,369
from where he was
trying to stop the mob
1123
01:17:58,456 --> 01:18:01,024
of MAGA people
from getting inside...
1124
01:18:07,247 --> 01:18:09,554
I'm like reliving it
in my brain right now.
1125
01:18:09,641 --> 01:18:15,081
Like, I have all of the frames
just going in my head.
1126
01:18:18,128 --> 01:18:21,392
The look
on this man's face was,
1127
01:18:21,479 --> 01:18:25,222
"I am about to fucking die."
1128
01:18:26,266 --> 01:18:29,705
You don't see police officers
look like that very often.
1129
01:18:31,968 --> 01:18:37,103
Police officers are
stoic, proud, in control.
1130
01:18:37,190 --> 01:18:41,107
This officer was not in control
of a motherfucking thing.
1131
01:18:41,194 --> 01:18:43,588
If they wanted to kill him,
they would've killed him.
1132
01:18:44,720 --> 01:18:48,027
The man pleaded for his life,
told people he has kids.
1133
01:18:50,856 --> 01:18:54,164
Well, I'm thinking like, holy
shit, this man is about to die.
1134
01:18:54,251 --> 01:18:57,863
And here I am about
to capture this shit.
1135
01:19:05,828 --> 01:19:08,352
It's kind of crazy 'cause
if I had to put, you know,
1136
01:19:08,439 --> 01:19:11,921
a dollar on it, I would
say everyone there is,
"Blue Lives Matter,
1137
01:19:12,008 --> 01:19:13,749
Blue Lives Matter."
1138
01:19:14,967 --> 01:19:17,143
They didn't fucking
matter that day.
1139
01:19:17,230 --> 01:19:19,319
I felt for him.
1140
01:19:20,799 --> 01:19:22,148
I have a son.
1141
01:19:22,235 --> 01:19:25,108
I thought about
what it would feel like for him
1142
01:19:25,195 --> 01:19:27,980
if some shit happened to me.
1143
01:19:28,067 --> 01:19:31,027
You know, that's
another human being.
1144
01:19:31,114 --> 01:19:33,333
Are there times that I
don't feel bad for cops?
1145
01:19:33,420 --> 01:19:34,726
Fucking right.
1146
01:19:39,383 --> 01:19:43,300
Derek Chauvin could kiss
my black ass, straight up.
1147
01:19:48,044 --> 01:19:51,308
That could be fucking me.
That coulda been any of us.
1148
01:19:51,395 --> 01:19:55,486
Like, I'm pissed off right now,
just by talking about, you know,
1149
01:19:55,573 --> 01:19:58,271
the, what happened
to George Floyd.
1150
01:19:58,358 --> 01:20:02,319
And what's happened to many,
1151
01:20:02,406 --> 01:20:05,017
many other people that have died
1152
01:20:06,279 --> 01:20:08,064
in the hands of police.
1153
01:20:08,151 --> 01:20:09,239
You know, it's,
1154
01:20:14,026 --> 01:20:18,422
I feel like if you weren't angry
about what happened...
1155
01:20:21,860 --> 01:20:26,082
...to George Floyd
on that fucking day,
1156
01:20:26,169 --> 01:20:28,693
you're not a fucking human.
1157
01:20:29,999 --> 01:20:34,177
You lack everything that
it takes to be a human being.
1158
01:20:34,264 --> 01:20:37,397
If that shit didn't
piss you the fuck off.
1159
01:20:47,407 --> 01:20:51,063
America has been rearing
its ugly fucking head
1160
01:20:51,150 --> 01:20:55,285
for many fucking years
over and over and over again.
1161
01:20:55,372 --> 01:20:58,027
And I'm documenting it all.
1162
01:20:58,114 --> 01:21:00,420
All I can do is
get these photos out
1163
01:21:00,507 --> 01:21:03,206
and show the world you know,
what I saw.
1164
01:21:06,078 --> 01:21:09,125
This is real-life America.
1165
01:21:14,782 --> 01:21:18,177
So, yeah, I felt for him,
I felt for...
1166
01:21:19,613 --> 01:21:21,659
...us. I felt for Americans.
1167
01:21:21,746 --> 01:21:24,183
I felt for, you
know, this world,
1168
01:21:24,270 --> 01:21:26,577
this is what it's come to.
1169
01:21:28,318 --> 01:21:31,887
Pull. Pull. Pull.
1170
01:22:00,828 --> 01:22:02,395
I came for fucking war, man.
1171
01:22:04,006 --> 01:22:08,271
We have a national,
international, crisis
1172
01:22:08,358 --> 01:22:12,101
unfolding right here
in the nation's Capitol.
1173
01:22:14,233 --> 01:22:16,583
The gravity
and the weight of that is huge.
1174
01:22:16,670 --> 01:22:19,804
Knowing that the eyes
of the world
1175
01:22:19,891 --> 01:22:23,068
are literally watching
our democracy crumble.
1176
01:22:25,810 --> 01:22:27,246
At this hour,
1177
01:22:27,333 --> 01:22:30,946
our democracy is under
unprecedented assault,
1178
01:22:31,033 --> 01:22:34,862
unlike anything we've
seen in modern times.
1179
01:22:34,950 --> 01:22:41,217
An assault in the citadel of
Liberty, the Capitol itself.
1180
01:22:41,304 --> 01:22:44,089
An assault on the people's
representatives
1181
01:22:44,437 --> 01:22:47,397
and the Capitol Hill police
sworn to protect them.
1182
01:22:54,447 --> 01:22:57,798
We had an election that
was stolen from us.
1183
01:22:58,321 --> 01:23:02,194
It was a landslide election,
and everyone knows it.
1184
01:23:02,281 --> 01:23:05,502
But we can't play into
the hands of these people.
1185
01:23:06,764 --> 01:23:08,548
We have to have peace.
1186
01:23:08,635 --> 01:23:10,115
So go home.
1187
01:23:10,202 --> 01:23:11,464
We love you.
1188
01:23:11,551 --> 01:23:13,075
You're very special.
1189
01:23:13,162 --> 01:23:15,338
You've seen what happens,
you see the way others
1190
01:23:15,425 --> 01:23:17,862
are treated that are so bad
and so evil.
1191
01:23:39,492 --> 01:23:42,582
"I can't breathe!
I can't breathe!
I can't breathe!"
1192
01:24:05,649 --> 01:24:06,911
'Cause...
1193
01:25:54,801 --> 01:25:56,890
How could anyone be proud
of what they were doing?
1194
01:25:56,977 --> 01:25:59,719
Even if you don't agree
with the election,
1195
01:25:59,806 --> 01:26:01,591
how could you be proud of that?
1196
01:26:01,678 --> 01:26:03,767
You've tried to storm
the fucking
1197
01:26:03,854 --> 01:26:05,899
United States Capitol
building--
1198
01:26:05,986 --> 01:26:10,077
not try to storm--
you did, you got in.
1199
01:26:10,165 --> 01:26:12,167
And people died.
1200
01:26:21,611 --> 01:26:24,222
When I began to see the
magnitude of the violence
1201
01:26:24,309 --> 01:26:28,748
that was taking place,
I just grew more and more,
1202
01:26:28,835 --> 01:26:32,491
I don't wanna say hysterical,
but more and more agitated
1203
01:26:32,578 --> 01:26:36,060
about Tabitha and Hank
not being with us.
1204
01:26:39,106 --> 01:26:41,805
I was aware of not wanting to
create surplus fear
1205
01:26:41,892 --> 01:26:45,112
and anxiety on their part,
but I was pretty angry.
1206
01:26:45,200 --> 01:26:48,812
USA. USA. USA.
1207
01:26:48,899 --> 01:26:52,424
USA. USA. USA.
1208
01:26:54,557 --> 01:26:56,950
We just sat there in silence.
1209
01:26:57,037 --> 01:26:59,866
I remember thinking
a lot about my mom.
1210
01:27:03,566 --> 01:27:06,308
You know, I think,
1211
01:27:06,395 --> 01:27:08,223
well, you know,
1212
01:27:08,310 --> 01:27:11,617
my mom lives with me,
she has Alzheimers.
1213
01:27:11,704 --> 01:27:14,229
And I didn't necessarily want to
get in contact with her
1214
01:27:14,316 --> 01:27:16,883
because
I didn't want her to worry,
1215
01:27:16,970 --> 01:27:19,538
I just wanted to be there.
1216
01:27:19,625 --> 01:27:21,453
You know?
1217
01:27:21,540 --> 01:27:23,542
I think that's what
I thought about the most.
1218
01:27:23,629 --> 01:27:27,851
At the end of the day,
I'm kind of all she has.
1219
01:27:27,938 --> 01:27:29,896
So...
1220
01:27:32,551 --> 01:27:36,207
Stop the steal, stop the steal,
stop the steal.
1221
01:27:46,522 --> 01:27:51,091
USA. USA. USA.
1222
01:28:12,156 --> 01:28:14,245
We reached out far
and wide as we could
1223
01:28:14,332 --> 01:28:17,248
to get people here
to support us.
1224
01:28:17,335 --> 01:28:19,685
So, whether the National Guard
showed up, didn't showed up,
1225
01:28:19,772 --> 01:28:22,122
whatever the case may be,
there were police officers
1226
01:28:22,209 --> 01:28:25,256
that we were calling on from
all around this area to assist.
1227
01:28:34,700 --> 01:28:35,919
We love you, President Trump.
1228
01:28:40,489 --> 01:28:43,100
Traitors!
1229
01:28:43,187 --> 01:28:44,667
Traitors!
1230
01:28:50,499 --> 01:28:54,329
My God. Oh, my fucking God.
1231
01:29:02,685 --> 01:29:06,341
When I saw that manpower
coming with the munitions
1232
01:29:06,428 --> 01:29:10,562
that we needed to handle the--
this crowd, that was...
1233
01:29:10,649 --> 01:29:13,130
"Okay, we're gonna
get through this."
1234
01:29:17,047 --> 01:29:19,310
Normally, it's
the federal government
1235
01:29:19,397 --> 01:29:21,486
that's coming to the aid
of local law enforcement,
1236
01:29:21,573 --> 01:29:24,141
local jurisdictions.
1237
01:29:24,228 --> 01:29:28,232
That day, local jurisdictions
1238
01:29:28,319 --> 01:29:30,495
came to support
the federal government.
1239
01:29:33,324 --> 01:29:34,978
Some of them are MPD officers,
1240
01:29:35,065 --> 01:29:36,980
some of 'em are
Virginia State Police.
1241
01:29:37,067 --> 01:29:40,375
You start seeing them
push the crowd back.
1242
01:30:00,830 --> 01:30:03,963
They're coming down
the West Front of the Capitol.
1243
01:30:04,050 --> 01:30:06,096
I, I remember having
a sense of like,
1244
01:30:06,183 --> 01:30:07,619
like, we taking it back.
1245
01:30:26,246 --> 01:30:28,161
We kept hearing those knocks.
1246
01:30:28,248 --> 01:30:34,298
One time, it was just such
a violent shaking of the door.
1247
01:30:34,385 --> 01:30:36,822
And that's when they,
they just kicked it in...
1248
01:30:39,477 --> 01:30:41,348
and their guns drawn.
1249
01:30:42,785 --> 01:30:45,440
That was by far the
scariest moment of my life
1250
01:30:45,527 --> 01:30:47,442
'cause I did not know
who kicked the door in,
1251
01:30:47,529 --> 01:30:49,095
and I saw all those guns.
1252
01:30:50,923 --> 01:30:54,449
And we just had our hands up,
and we had our hands up
for a long time.
1253
01:30:56,451 --> 01:30:59,366
You know, it's not a good
feeling having to walk around
1254
01:30:59,454 --> 01:31:02,935
the halls of Congress with your
hands up past insurrectionists
1255
01:31:03,022 --> 01:31:05,938
who actually should
have their hands up.
1256
01:31:06,025 --> 01:31:08,463
You know,
that's not a good feeling.
1257
01:31:13,729 --> 01:31:15,818
I will never forget,
1258
01:31:15,905 --> 01:31:18,995
in front of Congressman
Steny Hoyer's office,
1259
01:31:19,082 --> 01:31:22,825
there was a poster of John Lewis
that referenced, you know,
1260
01:31:22,912 --> 01:31:24,566
getting in good trouble,
1261
01:31:24,653 --> 01:31:27,133
and the poster
was ripped to shreds.
1262
01:31:34,053 --> 01:31:36,708
I just remember how
hateful that was,
1263
01:31:36,795 --> 01:31:39,319
to come in and rip up the poster
the way they did
1264
01:31:39,406 --> 01:31:41,496
and to just desecrate
the Capitol the way they did.
1265
01:31:41,583 --> 01:31:44,237
And I remember also walking past
1266
01:31:44,324 --> 01:31:47,066
one of the insurrectionists
that they had handcuffed.
1267
01:31:47,153 --> 01:31:50,243
And I just remember
looking at him, and he laughed.
1268
01:31:50,330 --> 01:31:52,768
You know,
it was... it was funny to him.
1269
01:31:52,855 --> 01:31:54,770
It was unnerving.
1270
01:31:59,078 --> 01:32:01,994
Finally,
Tabitha and Hank and Julie
1271
01:32:02,081 --> 01:32:05,171
were brought over to us
by the officers,
1272
01:32:05,258 --> 01:32:06,956
and it was tearful.
1273
01:32:08,131 --> 01:32:10,002
I was racked with
a lot of guilt.
1274
01:32:12,831 --> 01:32:16,879
I got someone who works with me
on my staff to drive them home.
1275
01:32:16,966 --> 01:32:19,708
Before they left, I gave them
a big hug, and it was again,
1276
01:32:19,795 --> 01:32:25,191
really emotional.
And I... said I was sorry.
1277
01:32:25,278 --> 01:32:28,847
And I said to Tabitha,
"The next time you come back
1278
01:32:28,934 --> 01:32:30,893
to the Capitol,
it's not gonna be like this."
1279
01:32:30,980 --> 01:32:33,809
And then she said,
"I don't want to come
back to the Capitol."
1280
01:32:35,419 --> 01:32:40,163
And it just...
it just rocked me.
1281
01:32:49,868 --> 01:32:51,957
I turned
the ISO up on my camera,
1282
01:32:52,044 --> 01:32:55,221
and I had this dark photo
of this flag waving
1283
01:32:55,308 --> 01:32:58,703
and smoke,
this tear gas is coming down,
1284
01:32:58,790 --> 01:33:02,707
and there's hardly
any more people at the top.
1285
01:33:02,794 --> 01:33:06,798
It just was weirdly over.
1286
01:33:15,677 --> 01:33:17,200
So, earlier there was a lot
of people out here,
1287
01:33:17,287 --> 01:33:18,854
and I guess
it's thinned out a little bit.
1288
01:33:21,117 --> 01:33:23,206
Oh, so somebody got a souvenir.
1289
01:33:23,293 --> 01:33:24,381
Jesus.
1290
01:33:25,774 --> 01:33:28,167
You know,
I walked two blocks,
1291
01:33:28,254 --> 01:33:30,779
called a Uber.
1292
01:33:30,866 --> 01:33:36,132
I just remember looking at
who my driver was gonna be,
1293
01:33:36,219 --> 01:33:39,135
and I was so relieved that
this driver was a Black man...
1294
01:33:40,702 --> 01:33:44,096
because I really honestly
couldn't deal
1295
01:33:44,183 --> 01:33:47,360
with any more
white folks that day.
1296
01:33:47,447 --> 01:33:49,624
I couldn't, I was just over it.
1297
01:33:51,364 --> 01:33:53,410
I needed that at that moment.
1298
01:33:53,497 --> 01:33:58,850
I needed someone that
I could relate to,
1299
01:33:58,937 --> 01:34:01,592
that was on the same
wavelength as me,
1300
01:34:01,679 --> 01:34:04,508
that was the same...
that was a brother.
1301
01:34:04,595 --> 01:34:06,553
Like, I needed to tell that
Black man,
1302
01:34:06,641 --> 01:34:09,339
like,
what I just went through.
1303
01:34:09,426 --> 01:34:11,167
Then I went up to the room
1304
01:34:11,254 --> 01:34:15,127
and, um, almost started crying.
1305
01:34:18,696 --> 01:34:21,264
I almost started,
and I stopped myself
1306
01:34:21,351 --> 01:34:23,658
and I was like, "Alright,
well, I got fucking work to do.
1307
01:34:23,745 --> 01:34:26,443
Let's not go through this
emotional shit right now.
1308
01:34:26,530 --> 01:34:29,359
You gotta fucking just focus
1309
01:34:29,446 --> 01:34:32,275
and get this job done."
1310
01:34:33,929 --> 01:34:36,018
And I'm thinking
about my boy who's over there.
1311
01:34:36,105 --> 01:34:38,368
You know, it's like I'm trying
to fucking make it home
1312
01:34:38,455 --> 01:34:42,677
and get the fuck up
out of here so I can see my son.
1313
01:34:54,950 --> 01:34:58,301
Eventually, the fatigue
of the day caught up with me,
1314
01:34:58,388 --> 01:35:00,782
and when I saw that
I could take a break,
1315
01:35:00,869 --> 01:35:03,393
I went back inside and sat down.
1316
01:35:03,480 --> 01:35:08,920
I found out later on
I had a large contusion
underneath my hair.
1317
01:35:09,007 --> 01:35:10,966
Then I had a headache
for about two weeks.
1318
01:35:11,053 --> 01:35:14,665
So, I likely had a concussion.
1319
01:35:14,752 --> 01:35:17,276
If I had taken
another blow like that,
1320
01:35:17,363 --> 01:35:19,104
especially in the same place,
that very easily could have
1321
01:35:19,191 --> 01:35:23,282
caused serious brain
damage or been fatal.
1322
01:35:28,070 --> 01:35:31,203
Our cops ended up
with broken jaws, broken necks,
1323
01:35:31,290 --> 01:35:33,292
broken arms, legs, fingers.
1324
01:35:33,379 --> 01:35:35,381
One officer lost three fingers.
1325
01:35:35,468 --> 01:35:39,124
People had traumatic
brain injury,
1326
01:35:39,211 --> 01:35:42,998
dozens and dozens ending up with
Post-Traumatic Stress Syndrome.
1327
01:35:44,608 --> 01:35:48,133
It was just hard to believe that
this was going on in America.
1328
01:35:48,220 --> 01:35:52,268
And it was going on, you know,
downstairs from where we were,
1329
01:35:52,355 --> 01:35:55,706
and Donald Trump wasn't
doing anything to stop it.
1330
01:35:55,793 --> 01:35:58,883
And the National Guard
was just absent...
1331
01:36:00,189 --> 01:36:02,147
and we were dumbfounded.
1332
01:36:20,209 --> 01:36:22,907
Congressman Raskin
is joining us now.
1333
01:36:22,994 --> 01:36:25,301
Congressman, obviously you
can't share everything with us,
1334
01:36:25,388 --> 01:36:28,478
but what have you learned
about what comes next?
1335
01:36:28,565 --> 01:36:31,220
I don't know, but I'll tell you
this but every single member
1336
01:36:31,307 --> 01:36:35,702
that I've spoken to
is absolutely determined
to have us complete
1337
01:36:35,790 --> 01:36:38,314
the counting of the
Electoral College votes,
1338
01:36:38,401 --> 01:36:41,796
and, uh,
American constitutional
democracy will prevail.
1339
01:37:37,460 --> 01:37:38,853
Nobody ever said
it would be easy.
1340
01:37:40,767 --> 01:37:42,900
But healing begins
with the truth.
1341
01:37:44,728 --> 01:37:48,210
I mean, there was an effort
almost instantly to bury
1342
01:37:48,297 --> 01:37:52,518
and rewrite the history
of what happened on January 6th.
1343
01:37:52,605 --> 01:37:55,260
You don't almost knock over the
government of the United States
1344
01:37:55,347 --> 01:37:57,088
by accident.
1345
01:37:57,175 --> 01:38:01,876
It's not an impulse move.
1346
01:38:01,963 --> 01:38:05,705
This was an organized
attack on the government.
1347
01:38:05,792 --> 01:38:09,100
if you allow for
there to be confusion,
1348
01:38:09,187 --> 01:38:11,059
propaganda
and disinformation about it.
1349
01:38:11,146 --> 01:38:15,411
Then that's very dangerous
because it conditions
1350
01:38:15,498 --> 01:38:17,152
the society to accept it
1351
01:38:17,239 --> 01:38:20,720
and licenses political violence
in the future.
1352
01:38:24,550 --> 01:38:26,335
It was a traumatic experience,
1353
01:38:26,422 --> 01:38:30,730
probably the most traumatic
event that I've dealt with.
1354
01:38:30,817 --> 01:38:38,434
But, for me, it's more of
losing trust in people.
1355
01:38:38,521 --> 01:38:40,827
You're talking about thousands
and thousands of people
1356
01:38:40,915 --> 01:38:46,398
that were willing to hurt us
to get what they want...
1357
01:38:47,747 --> 01:38:49,445
but then the next day,
probably go back to
1358
01:38:49,532 --> 01:38:51,447
respecting law enforcement, right?
1359
01:38:51,534 --> 01:38:53,275
How does that work?
How does that make sense?
1360
01:38:53,362 --> 01:38:56,539
How am I supposed
to respect that and trust you?
1361
01:38:59,324 --> 01:39:03,676
It was embarrassing,
to see what I was seeing,
1362
01:39:03,763 --> 01:39:07,593
you know,
to be an American.
1363
01:39:09,944 --> 01:39:12,555
The type of things
1364
01:39:12,642 --> 01:39:16,515
that happened
that day, you know,
1365
01:39:16,602 --> 01:39:19,779
theoretically
are not supposed to happen
1366
01:39:21,129 --> 01:39:23,392
in this country.
1367
01:39:23,479 --> 01:39:28,484
We're America, the greatest
country in the world.
1368
01:39:35,447 --> 01:39:40,409
My photos are showing you
things that you already know.
1369
01:39:44,413 --> 01:39:46,676
It's not really
exposing anything,
1370
01:39:46,763 --> 01:39:49,548
it's just showing
you what's real.
1371
01:39:50,680 --> 01:39:55,032
Hopefully, you know, the photos
help make life better for...
1372
01:39:55,119 --> 01:39:59,080
Like, hopefully, my son doesn't
have to have a movement.
1373
01:39:59,167 --> 01:40:02,648
Be a part of a movement
like what I've been a part of,
1374
01:40:02,735 --> 01:40:05,608
or what my parents have been
a part of in the '60s.
1375
01:40:07,349 --> 01:40:10,308
But chances are,
he will be
1376
01:40:10,395 --> 01:40:12,658
because that's the way
the world works, you know.
1377
01:40:14,225 --> 01:40:16,488
The world is not perfect
1378
01:40:16,575 --> 01:40:19,448
and it can be
fucked up sometimes.
1379
01:40:24,322 --> 01:40:26,020
A violent insurrection
to overturn the election
1380
01:40:26,107 --> 01:40:28,326
is not an abstract thing,
as we've heard.
1381
01:40:28,413 --> 01:40:30,154
Hundreds of people
were bloodied,
1382
01:40:30,241 --> 01:40:32,330
injured, and wounded
in the process,
1383
01:40:32,417 --> 01:40:36,334
including more than
150 police officers,
1384
01:40:36,421 --> 01:40:39,424
some of them
sitting in this room today.
1385
01:40:39,511 --> 01:40:41,731
It's a dark day for America.
1386
01:40:41,818 --> 01:40:46,214
The Confederate flag was inside
the United States Capitol,
1387
01:40:46,301 --> 01:40:49,086
the flag of traitors,
and I say that as someone
1388
01:40:49,173 --> 01:40:51,958
born below the Mason-Dixon line,
who loves the South.
1389
01:40:53,699 --> 01:40:57,181
White supremacists rummaging
1390
01:40:57,268 --> 01:41:01,229
through the belongings
of our elected leaders.
1391
01:41:05,320 --> 01:41:07,931
It's hard to imagine how that
could be victory, right?
1392
01:41:11,978 --> 01:41:15,460
But power was transferred
that day peacefully.
1393
01:41:15,547 --> 01:41:19,421
The terrorists, very fortunate
that they got to go home,
1394
01:41:19,508 --> 01:41:21,727
but more of them are getting
arrested every day.
1395
01:41:24,295 --> 01:41:26,471
And, um,
victory doesn't always look like
1396
01:41:26,558 --> 01:41:30,084
what we want it to look like,
but we did win.
1397
01:41:30,171 --> 01:41:31,302
We won that day.
1398
01:41:36,481 --> 01:41:38,570
When you go
through something like
that, you don't really think
1399
01:41:38,657 --> 01:41:40,790
about the impact it had on you
1400
01:41:40,877 --> 01:41:43,793
until you decide
to talk about it again,
1401
01:41:43,880 --> 01:41:46,578
and then a lot of that
fear and terror
1402
01:41:46,665 --> 01:41:49,755
and pain comes back.
1403
01:41:49,842 --> 01:41:51,844
But, you know,
I don't know that there's
1404
01:41:51,931 --> 01:41:54,586
a whole lot of use
in being angry.
1405
01:41:54,673 --> 01:41:57,241
I think that anger
should be channeled
1406
01:41:57,328 --> 01:42:00,026
into the work that
we should continue to do.
1407
01:42:00,114 --> 01:42:01,767
That's why I stayed that night.
1408
01:42:04,030 --> 01:42:07,382
Being there, you know,
in the face of terrorism
1409
01:42:07,469 --> 01:42:09,558
and showing them that,
you know,
1410
01:42:09,645 --> 01:42:13,301
despite your attack on
democracy, democracy prevailed.
1411
01:42:14,998 --> 01:42:16,956
This is not the end of the book.
1412
01:42:17,043 --> 01:42:19,350
It's not the last
chapter of the book.
1413
01:42:19,437 --> 01:42:23,789
So, while I have an appreciation
for being
1414
01:42:23,876 --> 01:42:27,880
part of this historically
significant event...
1415
01:42:29,404 --> 01:42:32,494
I take comfort in knowing
that it's not the last chapter.
1416
01:42:34,191 --> 01:42:36,846
I think about what's ahead.
1417
01:42:36,933 --> 01:42:40,545
How strong we are.
1418
01:42:40,632 --> 01:42:44,114
After enduring all of these
things yet here I stand,
1419
01:42:44,201 --> 01:42:45,855
our country.
1420
01:42:45,942 --> 01:42:49,467
After going through all
the things that we go through,
1421
01:42:49,554 --> 01:42:52,340
democracy still moves forward.
1422
01:42:52,427 --> 01:42:55,473
And our last chapter is
still yet to be written.
1423
01:42:58,781 --> 01:43:00,609
But this is not the
problem of one party,
1424
01:43:00,696 --> 01:43:03,916
it is the problem of
the whole country now.
1425
01:43:04,003 --> 01:43:06,005
American democracy,
Mr. Chairman,
1426
01:43:06,092 --> 01:43:08,312
is a precious inheritance,
1427
01:43:08,399 --> 01:43:11,097
something rare
in the history of the world.
1428
01:43:11,185 --> 01:43:13,099
So, justice is part
of what we're doing,
1429
01:43:13,187 --> 01:43:15,189
but I would say
paramount is the truth.
1430
01:43:15,276 --> 01:43:17,321
We want to set out
1431
01:43:17,408 --> 01:43:20,585
a complete,
detailed historical record
1432
01:43:20,672 --> 01:43:22,631
of what happened and why.
1433
01:43:22,718 --> 01:43:24,720
And we've come a long way,
1434
01:43:24,807 --> 01:43:27,984
but obviously the progress
1435
01:43:28,071 --> 01:43:31,205
can be lost also
in the wink of an eye.
1436
01:43:33,859 --> 01:43:37,646
In a world of insurgent
authoritarianism,
1437
01:43:37,733 --> 01:43:41,519
of racism and antisemitism,
let's all hang tough for
1438
01:43:41,606 --> 01:43:43,304
American democracy.
1439
01:43:43,391 --> 01:43:45,610
Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
I yield back.
1440
01:43:49,962 --> 01:43:53,618
So, eternal vigilance,
that's the price of our liberty.
1441
01:43:53,705 --> 01:43:55,577
That's the price
of our democracy.
1442
01:43:55,664 --> 01:43:57,143
We've all got
to stay on the case.
1443
01:43:57,231 --> 01:43:59,320
It's something we
take care of together.
