a river in the democratic republic of congo. and 3 months are she was freed from prison by protesters nationalist souther jumper of except for a landslide victory in kyrgyzstan the presidential election. we begin in the united states where senate leader chuck schumer is warning that the threat of violence from maine is high after the storming of congress by supporters of president trump joe biden is judy to be inaugurated in washington in 10 days time which could provide another potential flash point it comes as the democrats continue to draft new articles of impeachment against donald trump and more details are also merging of what of wednesday's dramatic events on capitol hill patty cohen as more now from washington. this video obtained by the washington post shows just how few police officers there were to keep rioters some armed with restraints and

weapons from getting to members of congress or the. members say when they were trying to get out the last available exit there were only 3 officers holding the line trying to give them enough time to escape when they stepped aside as a window was broken a writer was shot. the representatives and their staff escaped this video was captured by a reporter for the huffington post rioters looking for the senate he says if they had turned right they would have entered the chambers with senators inside this lone capitol police officer directed them away from it and up the stairs instead but not everyone was this confused one congressman says there is evidence son had planned their attack there is a ma. this is a house of god never going to do it but this is by the office. to the office.

usually i must say. it was in my office they were had all the furniture and stuff at the door and there were people trying to get we're going to the capitol and the president directed these followers to march on the capitol he told them the election was stolen and now democrats say he should pay for inciting an insurrection they're moving to impeach him within days our main priority is to ensure the removal of dollars of president of the united every minute and every hour of that office represents clear and present danger not just to the united states congress but frankly to country but not all republicans are onboard some using the same reason in that they did after the president was impeached the 1st time i my personal view is that the president touched the hot stove on wednesday and as unlikely to touch it again many saying impeachment will only divide the. further but some argue it's necessary for the long term health of the country until

the united states starts. to hold those who both grew dissipated physically in the actions but also incited the actions and aided and you will see accountability for all of that and a renewed commitment among republicans to moms and i'm afraid we should expect that this is only the beginning of the rise of some prism and perhaps even. it's unclear if legally the senate can hold an impeachment trial for a president who has already left office the courts will likely have to decide that but it does seem likely that in the coming days the house of representatives will make sure that donald trump is the only u.s. president to have been impeached twice to call him el jazeera at the capitol and i cannot joins us live now from washington and might there might be some calls for president trying to resign but what about are republicans backing efforts to impeach him. well some republicans are battered would

appear that the exact amount of the coverage and so are doing so very unclear at the moment it is known that there are a number of house republicans who would back impeachment and some members of the senate but this is all getting ahead of things the democratic members of the house held a lengthy phone conversation in the course of saturday being briefed by the speaker of the house discussing their various options now information emerging from that appears to indicate that the house it's likely to vote on impeachment in the course of this coming week constitutionally they're able to do so they need to draw up the articles of impeachment it is understood that one of these articles is likely to have the phrase incitement to violence then the house can then pass the impeachment impeach the president and then hold back on the senate trial until a 100 days into the biden administration this would avoid the problem that would

incur with the biden inauguration taking place on the 20th having a senate trial at roughly the same time but it is in the power of the speaker of the house to hold back on those articles of impeachment after the house has voted to impeach and then submit it to the senate in $100.00 days time another very important point about such a process would be that president if impeached would not be allowed to take up office in the federal government in any form whatsoever now this is a very important aspect of it but that would be left to the senate in the trial to impose such a sanction in terms of approving or passing the impeachment process which has been conducted by the house and in terms of the attack on the capitol we have news now that at least 25 domestic terrorism cases have been opened as a result of that assault and then also these have been further arrests as well

including a man seen with these plastic restraints. indeed justice department has confirmed that 2 more people have been charged including that person that was caught with restraints the. idea was some of claiming that there was the intention possibly to kidnap a member of congress in some form so certainly this is ramping up and i'll be secretary of the army who says that more than 25 domestic terrorism cases have been opened against some of those who were taking part in that attack on the capitol so this is certainly ramping up one must point out as well is that the justice department has not formally ruled out the possibility of criminal charges being brought against the president himself once he leaves office on the same basis of incitement to violence so certainly there are those in congress to return to my earlier comments that have been arguing that perhaps the way to goes not

necessarily impeachment but a criminal trial so all cards are still to go down on the table that being said though it does appear what we're hearing from democrats is that the impeachment proceedings in the house will go ahead within the next week thanks very much from washington mike hanna thank you might. search and rescue team in indonesia has found human remains and twisted wreckage in the java sea discovery comes a day after a passenger jet with 62 people on board disappeared shortly after takeoff from jakarta apple the aircraft's flight recorders have also now been found from the capital jessica washington reports. in these waters just off the coast of the indonesian capital a search operation by sea and air continues in the java sea rescuers found body
