a shotgun. the stories we don't often hear told by the people who live them. we know machine. what language nick. make it my displeasure in the shallow sama, the book set this year. on al jazeera, a new generation of young people are more politically engaged than the one that came before. welcome to generation change a global theories and attempts to challenge and understand the ideas and mobilize youth around the world. in south africa, it's women who are at the forefront as the woke generation. you must never ever get tired of developing resistance strategies and dead ignite the passion to stand up and fight generating change on al jazeera. ah,
6:01 am
donald trump was at the center of this come to spirits in the u. s. congressional committee outlines its findings into the january 6 attack on capitol hill. ah, we were watching al jazeera alive from a headquarters in delphi em daddy and abigail are also coming up pressure mountains on brazil's government to do more to find 2 men missing in the amazon and the pga tour suspends players competing and the controversial saudi back gulf series ah, so a u. s. congressional committee investigating last year as insurrection at capitol hill has been told the violence wasn't an accident. and that former president donald trump, bears responsive realty for it's an a prime time hearing it's chair warned us
6:02 am
democracy remains in danger. following that attack house investigators released new footage of scenes outside and inside the building. police being brutally attacked and members of right wing groups leading crowds into the capital. on this point, there is no room for debate. those who invaded our capital and battled law enforcement for ours were motivated by what president trump had told them that the election was stolen, and that he was the rightful president. president trump summoned the mob assembled the mob and lit the flame of this attack. while there was testimony from members of trumps family including his daughter vanka and her husband, jared christner. if vanka trump said she accepted that the election wasn't stolen well in the nearly a year long investigation around a 1000 people connected to that siege right there, have been interviewed. and more than a 140000 documents have been collected,
6:03 am
let's get an update right away with hydro castro, joining us from capitol hill who is listening in to that hearing and id. the focus was squarely on donald trump and accusations that he spearheaded coordinated as well as planned that attack on the capitol back in january. that's right. and many headlines may to night, as we've finally been allowed to peak behind the curtains of this select committees . exhaustive work over almost this past year. in those headlines, as you say, the focus warily on questions surrounding donald trump. namely, what was he doing during that riot? on january 6th, according to the committee's vice chair, she said that investigators found that in those 3 hours was so as he was watching images and video of this. why it happening in real time from the white house. he was ignoring the, please of his staff members and of trapped
6:04 am
a members of congress leading for him to call off the riders. and that instead he was yelling at them in his frustration. and even at one point and paraphrasing, he said that trump said that perhaps his supporters were right, that vice president might pass who was refusing to go along with the rioters demand that he overturned the election. that vice president, mike pence should get it something as an astonishing words coming from the president of from the former president. also that he was not the one who deployed the military, that ultimately helped to contain the writing that day that it was the vice president mike pence. who did so, more details to about the fallout following january 6, in which cabinet secretary disgust using the 25th amendment out to remove trump from office, which is only used when a president is incapable of performing the duties of his office. and that why house
6:05 am
counsel pat cipollina and his staff threatened to resign in mass over the fall of january 6th, but was told by jared cushion or president trump's son in law and adviser. he said he would describe that as whining. other headlines regarding trump also into his mindset perhaps whether or not he really knew that he had. * lost the election, which is astonishingly an open question because that goes into the motive of why he was spreading these false claims that the election had been stolen. while we saw compelling video from our closed door testimony of former attorney general bill bar in which he told investigators that he disagreed with the idea that election was stolen, mac, he told trump that it was won't be at. and that these allegations, he said were groundless completely nonsense, crazy stuff and doing a great rate dis service to the country. and as you mentioned, it was yvonne trump trump's daughter,
6:06 am
who testified also before the committee saying that she believed to bill bars. assessment a break from her father. many of these tidbits coming out, hating the entire picture, as the committee chair said, what he called trump orchestrating and attempted to january 6th was the culmination of an attempted cou. a brazen attempt as one right to put it shortly after january 6 to overthrow the government. the balance was no accident. it represent senate prompts less than most desperate chance to haul the transfer of pow wow. so heidi, this is just the 1st hearing. we know that there are around half a dozen more to come. what should we expect. c from those that will be held in the next few weeks. right, we can expect more live witnesses, including a member of the vice president's legal team who is expected to testify,
6:07 am
cooperating that hence refused to aid in trump's efforts to overturn the election. i also more at unseen footage, as we saw today, of the desperate fight that police officers or trying and in a completely overwhelmed situation to defend their own lives and to defend the u. s . capital. and also more interesting tidbits that we have not learned of before. for example, how the that staffs heretic surroundings from believe he was too dangerous to leave alone after january sick, that they were always with him until he left the presidency. and that he at the allegation that a congressional republicans sought presidential pardons from trump in the days following the riot. so that, and much more is to be expected. but that the question is, what difference may it make?
6:08 am
you know, the u. s. public has been hearing about january 6 now or a year and a half. there certainly is a palpable sense that people are losing interest. so this committee, which is headed by 7 democrats and 2 republicans, have been desperately trying to reach in to these american household planning. these hearings to take place on for during prime time, carried by u. s. television channels, in hopefully hoping to make a connection with the american public public to again engage in the dialogue surrounding january 6th. because the committee considers that extremely dangerous day and they see that danger even continues now. okay, thank you so much, heidi. is her class reporting for us from capitol hill? well, during the hearing, the vice chair of the committee republican louis trainee explained how donald trump pressured vice president mike pence relentlessly let president trump demanded it might tend to do wasn't is wrong,
6:09 am
it was illegal and it was unconstitutional. you will hear this in great detail from the vice presidents, former general counsel. witnesses in these hearings will explain how the former vice president and his staff informed president trump over and over again. that what he was pressuring mike pence to do was illegal. as you will hear, president trump engaged in a relentless effort to pressure pence, both in private and in public. you will see the evidence of that pressure from multiple witnesses live and on video. vice president pants demonstrated his loyalty to donald trump consistently over 4 years. but he knew that he had a higher duty to the united states constitution, while arose hers up. those poor has revealed more than half a few s republicans. believe the false claim that left during protests led the january 6 attack to try to make vent president donald trump looked bad. 58 percent
6:10 am
of republicans say they believed most of the protesters were peaceful and law abiding. that's the spite more than a 100 police officers suffering injuries on the day. and the poor also found almost 2 thirds of republicans believe the 2020 presidential election was stolen from trump. judges have dismissed more than 50 lawsuits challenging the election results . multiple reviews in order to have found no evidence of any wide spread fraud. let sabrina richard painter who is joining us, lie from yarmouth board, that's in massachusetts. he's a professor at the university of minnesota law school on former chief fx lawyer for president george w. bush, welcome to al jazeera sir. thanks for speaking to us. i'd like to get your take on whether these hearings actually make a difference. but 1st, just give me your initial thoughts on the hearing. and what do you think the takeaway message was? the message is that this was a clear, intentional, deliberate, well plan effort to overthrow the united states government,
6:11 am
the united states government, the government set forth in our constitution. we elect the president every 4 years . and donald trump in his desperate desire to cling to power spread the rumor, the. busy false flame that somehow he had won an election, they had lost 8000000 boats. his own attorney general told them he lost the election. that was obvious. that is a fact. and yet he sought to claim to power. and he instructed the justice department to issue opinions that the election, but somehow fraudulent attorney general bar resigned. and then president trump still insisted on trying to get those opinions. he pressured the military. he planned to use the military to intervene and hold the election again. he, uh, then, uh, coordinated uh, with his political operators who staged the rally,
6:12 am
which turned violent any incited a violent insurrection. this is a well planned effort over $22.00 and a half months to hold on to power. and this is the way democracies turned it in dictatorships when someone was power, a president of chancellor, some other leader is unwilling to give it up in accordance with the constitution. right. and how significant is it that the chair of the committee called it an attempted crew? i mean, does that move the discussion into a different place or a new place? so this was definitely an attempt to go uh, president trump discussed in the oval office in december, late november, early december. he discussed with his aids of the option of using the military to enter vein and hold the election again in several g states which he had lost in donald trump was more than willing to use military force if he would have been able to. and that's why he went to the justice department and pressured,
6:13 am
the justice department, the co, worse them, tried to get them to issue an opinion signed that the election was somehow fraudulent or in by iowa. so he would have an excuse to stage a military co and it's only one that fail. that would we then say the trump supporter is turning to violence at the capital building. i know that you've, you had earlier said that you hope that they don't just focus on january 6th, but rather they must focus on the enormous pressure on the vice president and, and the coercion against the justice department. did you see enough of that? well, i saw some of that, but we need to get down to specifics because it is a felony under united states law for anyone that to seek to coerce or order a united states government official to engage in any parson political activity, whether before or after an election and putting this type of pressure on the justice department. in fact,
6:14 am
ordering the justice department seeking to co worse presidential appointees to declare the election and valid. what was my very, very clearly a violation of the criminal, a political coercion statute. not only one of the many statutes of federal statutes, criminal statutes that were violated here, the department of justice does need to charge these crimes. and that's what i'm waiting for is for the d o j a to get a grand jury conveying an and to proceed with indictments. and what are you hoping this hearing will actually achieve? and do you think it will make a difference? well, it's a different if democrats are hoping they're just going to get votes in the november elections because of the hearing. i don't think they're subjective and i don't believe that's the objective of the chairman of the committee or others on the committee. so the, you know, who wins in november, elections is completely different issue. those are electrons to the united states.
6:15 am
house of representatives, and one 3rd of the senators. ha, hopefully this is a hearing in this series of hearings will send the message to the republican party that donald trump should not be re laminated for president or any other office. and indeed, he is disqualified under the 14th amendment section 3, which disqualifies from public office. anyone who has taken an oath of law to see the united states and is participated in any insurrection against the united states, or given aid or comfort to insurrection, s. and donald trump clearly did that, he's disqualified from public office, and he needs to move into the background. and the republican party needs to sort itself out and separate itself. donald trump, right, thank you so much, richard. painter for joining us from massachusetts. thank you. now in the next few
6:16 am
