will for, what we believe, what we will be. at the centre of that belief is on the orders principles that this nation has long held. we are a government of laws, not of men, not of people, of loss. i said government of laws, not of men, not of people, of loss. isaid it government of laws, not of men, not of people, of loss. i said it many times in the camp —— laws. our democratic institutions not a relic of another age. what sets this nation apart through the guardrails of our democracy. there the guardrails of our democracy. and there is no president, that is why there is no president, that is why there is no president, that is why there is no president that is a king. no congress that is the house of lords. itjudiciary does not serve the will of the president or exist to protect him or her, we have

three coequal branches of government. co—equal. our president is not above the law. justice serves the people. it does not protect the powerful. justice is blind. not only do we see the failure to detect one of the three branches of oui’ detect one of the three branches of our government, we also saw a clear failure to carry out equaljustice. they used to say in the senate excuse a they used to say in the senate excuse a point of personal privilege. a little over an hour and half after chaos started i got a text from my grand donna finnegan biden, a senior in her last semester from university of pennsylvania. she sent me a photo of military people

in full military gear. scores of them lining the steps of the lincoln memorial. because a protest by black lives matter. she said paul, this isn't fair. no one can tell me that if that had been a group of black lives matter protesting yesterday there wouldn't have been, they wouldn't of been treated very, very differently than the mob of thugs that stormed the capital. we all know that's true. and it is unacceptable. know that's true. and it is u na cce pta ble. totally u na cce pta ble. the american people saw it in plain view. and i hope it sensitizes to what we have to do. not many people know it, when justice garland and i we i’e know it, when justice garland and i were talking we talked about and i think he raise it, the reason for

the justice department formed in think he raise it, the reason for thejustice department formed in the first place was back in 1870, we didn't have a justice department before that at the capital. it was formed in 1870 to enforce the civil rights amendment that grew out of the civil war. 13th, 14th and 15th amendments to stand up to the clan. to stand up to racism. to take on domestic terrorism. this original spirit must again guide and animate its work. so as we stand here today we its work. so as we stand here today we do so in the wake of yesterday's events. events that could not have more vividly demonstrated some of the most important work we have to do in this nation. committing ourselves to the rural of law in this nation. —— rule. invigorating art domestic institutions carrying

out equal justice art domestic institutions carrying out equaljustice under the law in america. there is no more important place for us to do this work than the departments of justice place for us to do this work than the departments ofjustice that's been so politicized. there is no more important people to carry out this work than the people i am announcing today. more than anything, we need to restore the honor, the integrity, the independence of the department of justice in this nation that's been so justice in this nation that's been so badly damaged. and so many former leaders of that department in both parties have so testified and stated it. i want to be clear to those who lead this department, who you will sei’ve. lead this department, who you will serve. you won't work for me. you are not the president or the vice president lawyer. your loyalty is

not to me. it's to the law. the constitution, the people of this nation. to guarantee justice. constitution, the people of this nation. to guaranteejustice. for attorney general of the united states i nominate a man of impeccable integrity. judge merritt garland. 0ne impeccable integrity. judge merritt garland. one of the most expected jurors of our times. —— respected for their brilliant yet humble, distinguished yet modest. full of character and decency. a supreme court clerk served in the justice department during the carter, bush 41 and clinton administrations. where he embraced the departments c0 i’e where he embraced the departments core values of independence and integrity. a federal prosecutor who took on terrorism and corruption and violent crime. layers of the utmost

professionalism and the duty to the oath he swore. nominated by president clinton to be a judge on the dc circuit court of appeals. considered the second most powerful court in america. throughout such a long and distinguished careerjudge garland has earned the praise and admiration of members of bench and bar. and politicians of both parties. and despite his busy schedule and procedures decisions he still makes time to volunteer regularly. tutoring students in northeast dc. as he is done for 20 yea rs. northeast dc. as he is done for 20 years. it's about character. it's about character. it was no surprise why president 0bama nominated him. judge garland to the supreme court. asi judge garland to the supreme court. as i said, he embodies honour, decency, integrity. the rule of law and judicial independence. those

independence and integrity of our justice department. so may god bless you all. may god protect our troops. and those who have sworn to protect the american people. i will turn it over to the team. starting with the next attorney general of the united statesjudge next attorney general of the united states judge merritt next attorney general of the united statesjudge merritt garland. thank you. thank you, president—elect biden. so, along statement from vice president electjoe biden repeating in no uncertain terms on the events that we saw yesterday in washington, dc and reiterated time again that america is a country of laws pulled

up america is a country of laws pulled up the laws that have to be fairly applied, laws that need to be applied, laws that need to be applied regardless of who is in the white house. regardless of who is in the senate or in the house of representatives. and the president elect was very clearly trying to say that what we seen yesterday is not terrible. and it was explicitly connecting the events that we saw yesterday with the man who he will replace, donald trump. well across the next hour is inside source will bring a further coverage as america continues to respond to what we have saw yesterday front the up there were numerous resignations from within the trump agnes sunak administrations was up in the the first and pass out with the first member of cabinet has resigned. already nick mulvaney, and president trump's pharma acting chief of staff has resigned he told the bbc that the president lit the fuse for yesterday's violence and said most normal mainstream common—sense republicans who support the president are done with him. another senior official deputy national

security adviser also resigned in the wa ke wake of the unrest that we saw. calls for donald trump to be removed from office are also growing. this is from the democratic party is most senior figures, is from the democratic party is most seniorfigures, senator leader is from the democratic party is most senior figures, senator leader chuck schumer. he tweeted, what happened at the us capitol was an insurrection against the us. incited by presidentjohn. this president must not hold office at one day longer. he goes on the quickest and most effective way can be done today to remove this president would be for the vice president would be for the vice president to immediately invoke the 25th amendment. let's speak to christina from the hill. thanks forjoining us. cristina marcos is a congressional reporter for the hill. for the people who are sure it could explain please. the 25th amendment will allow the removal of a president in the case of an

emergency. so that would mean that the vice president along with the majority of the presidents cabinet would have to agree to remove the president in that case. in the last 25 hours we reported that some ministration officials have started the step towards this extraordinary move. there's no indication that vice president penson signed on. the fact that there are discussions now among the administration officials undertook scores the severity of the situation that unfolded at the capital yesterday. so that's one possible route another route that chuck schumer reference would be via congress. i appreciate he needs to make these publics to make that statement. in reality is that a viable route? it's unlikely at this pointjust viable route? it's unlikely at this point just because viable route? it's unlikely at this pointjust because president trump is going to leave office in two weeks from today. and democrats have been calling and excluding speaker nancy pelosi moments ago a number of

democrats have all been calling for the use of impeachment. as you recall democrats launched impeachment inquiry and september of 2019. over president tom's efforts to pressure ukrainian government to open an investigation into biden. and it took three months to complete that the path of impeachment through the house. certainly that's not a path that would be easily into two ways. that said pelosi said just now that if the 25th amendment isn't invoked with the majority of trump's cabinet and pans is approval then she said the majority of her caucus believes they should still vote on impeachment and to try and remove trump immediately. thank you very much. we've got more information about what happened let's take a look at the time line. things begin with the

save america rally by the white house was because he president trump arising here a little earlier at ten in the morning. among the first speakers was the presidents personal lawyer rudy giuliani. and if we are wrong we lawyer rudy giuliani. and if we are wrong we will be made fools of. but if we are right a lot of them will go to jail. so let's have a trial by combat! mr giuliani was followed by a presidents son donald trump junior who then had this morning to the republican party. this gathering should send a message to them, this isn't their republican party anymore. this is donald trump's republican party. by midday, president trump himself had taken to the podium. he pressured vice president mike pence to refuse to recognise the incoming presidentjoe biden‘s victory. and he said this.

we are going to walk down to the capital and we are going to cheer on out capital and we are going to cheer on our brave senators and congressmen and women. and will probably not to be cheering so much for some of them. because you'll never take back our country with weakness. you have to show strength and you have to be strong. and they did walk down to the capitol. from the site of president trump's speech near the white house — they moved towards where congress was holding a joint session to certify the results of the election. at 1pm the vice president released a statement saying he didn't have the powers to throw out the results and that his role was "largely ceremonial." 0utside, tension was rising — these are pictures of people gathering outside the capitol building. as you can see police have fenced off the area, but soon barricades were being overwhelmed. soon trump supporters began scaling the portico outside the capitol building.

and headed toward the entrance. police deployed tear gas and made some attempts to contain the situation — but they couldn't or wouldn't. eventually the protestors broke through. let's just take a look now at the key locations in the capitol building — the arrows are where the protesters gained entry. in the middle is the great rotunda — we'll show you some pictures from there shortly. on one side of the building is the senate chamber, a room the protesters would eventually occupy. 0n the other is the house of representatives chamber — where police would set up a barricade to prevent them breaking through. at 2.15 in the afternoon, capitol police alerted staff inside the building that they are under lockdown because of a security threat. here's what happened next — first in the senate and then the house of representatives. thank you. without objection the house is going to go back into recess. and this is the message given

to those inside the house chamber — there are no pictures, but you will be able to hear it. get down under your chairs if necessary so we have get down under your chairs if necessary so we have folks entering the returned and coming down this way. so we will update you as soon as we can way. so we will update you as soon as we can butjust be prepared. stay calm. jamie steem is a us politics columnist — she was inside the capitol building. (sot) the level of pandemonium in the chamber when the glass started shattering and the announcement was made that in individual has breached the building, breach that returned which is the centre under the dome. it seemed as if the capital police didn't know exactly what was happening. and had lost control of the building. which is theirjob. shortly afterwards, the washington dc mayor declared

a curfew, to begin later in the evening. as you can see from video images the unlawful behaviour inside the united states capitol building. i continue to urge all washingtonians to stay home and stay calm. and if you see something, say something. the protesters breached the building — these are pictures of them skirmishing with police inside the capitol rotunda. police fired tear gas, and those inside the house are instructed to put on gas masks. as you can see here — the protesters also attempted to break into the legislative chambers. the house was evacuated, but some members in the upper gallery had to shelter behind chairs. let me show you some footage recorded by someone there. they broke the glass. everybody stay down! get down! 0h they broke the glass. everybody stay down! get down! oh my god.

well, you can hear there people sheltering behind their chairs saying the protesters have weapons— these pictures show an armed standoff taking place at the doors to the house chamber. police have drawn their guns in an attempt to stop protesters from gaining entry. shots were heard shortly before 3pm — a woman had been shot at later died. at the other end of the capitol building some unprecedented scenes had been taking place — protesters had broken police lines on the west side of the building and scaled the walls to get inside. some broke into the senate chamber — as you can see them here in these pictures. the floor of the senate is largely empty, and the protesters are milling around. 0ne protester was photographed sitting in the speaker's chair. that is the chronology. in the second half of outside source will have much more detail as we will look at the political action as what's happening in washington, dc not just for the what's happening in washington, dc notjust for the us but what's happening in washington, dc not just for the us but from what's happening in washington, dc notjust for the us but from around the world. .

hello. temperatures have been dropping rapidly since a sunset on thursday. well below freezing on much of the uk already. to the course of tonight we are can uk already. to the course of tonight we are can be uk already. to the course of tonight we are can be seen uk already. to the course of tonight we are can be seen those gold conditions continuing. this was the picture in northumberland earlier on. snow over there and parts of northern england and of midlands in wales will see more sleet and snow through tonight. some icy stretch is developing as well. so it's this waterfront here slow—moving pushing south that's bringing this no fault of northern england into wales. we've also seen for the wintry flurries across northern and eastern parts of scotland. more snow continuing year. blown in on quite a brisk northerly went for the pen lines a couple of centimetres at lower levels. some falling as rain particular near the coast in the

east. further south across england and some parts of wales should stay mostly dry. they could be the odd wintry flurries almost anywhere. temperatures are getting below freezing for that —60 perhaps —10 degrees across rural parts of scotland. a cold night for northern ireland. enter friday morning we've got more snow piling up across parts of northern england. some of white heavy. some flurries of snow into wales into the north midlands. perhaps some rain, sleet showers in east anglia. should be dried to the south but that chilly temperature is about two to 4 degrees. scotland and northern ireland have a drier day with some sunshine again cold with those temperatures just a few degrees above freezing at best. into the beacon a subtle change of the wind starts to turn a little bit more westerly. there will be some rain and hailsnow more westerly. there will be some rain and hail snow pushing into the far northwest of scotland later in the day. much of the uk and friday on saturday for some mist and frosted fog clearing weight gradually force up a little bit less cold that has been. about two to 5 degrees. still quite chilly but

there are some blue skies and sunshine to compensate. sunday cloud drifting and pressed many parts of the uk. brightest in the south in the uk. brightest in the south in the east as well. but those temperatures just starting to nudge up temperatures just starting to nudge up gradually by a few degrees. still likely to see a frosty morning. temperatures by the afternoon about five to seven celsius to stop still below average but not as cold as it has been recently. as we look ahead into next week things are starting to change. temperatures will be on the rise. and things are looking quite unsettled through much of the week. bye

hello, i'm ros atkins, this is 0utside source. calls for the president to be removed from office are increasing after last night's violent protests in washington. i call for the vice president of the members of the cabinet to ensure the next few weeks are seen for the american people and that we have a scene captain on the ship. senate democratic leader chuck schumer has called for the vice president to immediately invoke the 25th amendment. it would declare the president unfit for office, and allow mike pence to take charge. meanwhile donald trump's team is beginning to dwindle. the first of his cabinet members, secretary of transportation, elaine chao, announced she's stepping down. at least five other white house staffers have also gone. president—elect biden has been speaking in the last few minutes — and has continued his attacks on president trump. what we witnessed yesterday was not

it was not disorder, it was not protest. it was chaos. it comes as facebook extends its block on donald trump's accounts for at least the next two weeks — untiljoe biden‘s inauguration. and 1,162 deaths have been reported in the uk today from covid—19, a rise from yesterday, but the number of positive cases has dropped by almost ten thousand. we have heard from nancy pelosi. and calling for the seditious act, the president has committed an assault on our nation and our people. ijoined the leader in age

or in the vice president by invoking the 25th amendment. the congress may be prepared to move forward with impeachment. shortly before the 6pm curfew the building was finally cleared of protesters. lebo diseko was there — and shejoins me now. how long did it take the police to secure the area? well, it's difficult for me to give a timeline on that. but i can tell you is that we are on that. but i can tell you is that we are in one of the buildings adjoining on capitol hill, part of the capitol hill building enter into that big building that you showed a map ofa that big building that you showed a map of a few minutes ago where the lawmakers were and members of the house of representatives had their offices there. we were broadcasting there about an hour before it all happened in the house and floor of

the congress. police came in and told us that we had to evacuate and we are told us that we had to evacuate and we are asked to go through that and for quite some time, by the time were taken to the cafeteria area, the scenes that you saw in the whole world salt started playing out. we were on lock down there for more than four hours with people that worked in the building and people there watching that and the police that were overpowered by the donald trump supporters and wondering, are they 0k, what is happening. i talked toa they 0k, what is happening. i talked to a member that works there and talked about having to usher him out and usher him to safety and two women told me how they were working on the floor and they are not even allowed to touch the desks where the lawmakers sit in to see people just jumping all over them, sitting in the speakers chair, moving things, turning furniture over, for them,

total disrespect for the democratic institutions of this country. we were there for several hours and we are in the cafeteria, beyond six or seven o'clock, kind of hard to keep track of the full timeline but we were eventually led out and it took some time before we were able to leave the capitol grounds themselves and there is still quite high security around this whole area, national guard has been draughted and we are hearing that 6000 are going to be in dc up into the inauguration. let's look at events today, the situation where you are at the moment, what is your reaction to what nancy pelosi is saying and how realistic that we think would be if the democrats pushed for congress to intervene and if that would be viable. but i find particularly interesting is, this is not

something that the democrats would say but we are hearing from our partners in the us and there is discussion inside the cabinet about removing donald trump from office. it will be unprecedented if that happened. the 25th amendment has been invoked before if a president, like when ronald reagan had an operation for some of the stand in for him, but never to remove a sitting president from office stop he would have right to refuse that in there would be several processes by which they can import that, the cabinet members get import that, but i could take us beyond inauguration day. so i think is quite something that credible discussions that we are hearing at the moment. turning to another hugely important story. the uk has recorded its second highest daily number

of deaths from coronavirus, since the peak of the first wave in april last year. 1,162 deaths were confirmed on thursday — and 52,618 new cases. the head of nhs england has warned that every region now has more covid patients in hospital than during that first peak of the virus back in the spring. 0ur health correspondent dominic hughes reports. emergency department nurses is not patient still fighting the virus. —— now. for her colleagues, this is been some of the toughest days. every

member is going through so much and everywhere is understaffed, everywhere is understaffed, everywhere is understaffed, everywhere is being put through all of this we are all at risk. we are all coming into work and our families and it is all for the patients. the pressure is not so great there is a dangers that this could become covid—19 only sites. some nonurgent routine operations of already been cancelled, including some cancer treatments. this virus is spread far beyond london in the southeast. services right across the country are not being stretched as far as the limit and beyond. there are hospitals right on the brink, some of them are over that now and we just have to hope that the hole and a justice of the brink of the same time, otherwise you will not be able to cope. over that look like

? there would be patients on trolleys and cordless, very distressed people patients, relatives and staff. there are no 50% more covid—19 patients and the last years peak. —— now 50% more. for everyone coronavirus patient we re for everyone coronavirus patient were looking after, we are looking after two other hospitalised patients or other conditions and now, for everyone coronavirus patient, were looking after three for the conditions. the pressures are real and they are growing. the big concern is that case numbers are still a very high and that can only mean more admissions to come. there will be some difficult weeks ahead. let's return to events in washington —

and focus next on the protestors. as the story unfolded, pictures began emerging of those that had got inside. there was a man walking the corridors of power — with a confederate flag, a symbol of slavery and racism. there was the main with a fur hat, no top, a spear, face paint — and with a far—right symbol tattooed on his chest. 0thers wore combat gear such as bulletproof vests. the far right groups the proud boys was present. 0thers wore t—shirts with anti—semitic slogans. as the crowd people approached the capitol — the president's daughter ivanka posted a tweet calling them american patriots. she then deleted it — but we and the protestors had got the message. several hours after these people entered the building, donald trump posted a message for them. go home. we love you, you're very special, you've seen what happens, you see the way others are treated that are so bad and so evil. i know how you feel. but, go home and go home in peace.

twitter deleted the video. the president didn't — these are his people. and none of this is a surprise. this is the president who, in 2018, had said there were good people on both sides when white nationalists clashed with anti—racism protestors. this is the president who refused to condemn white nationalism during a presendential debate last year. this is the president who tweeted during black lives matter protests — ‘when the looting starts, the shooting starts'. a phrase first used by a notorious police chief in the 60s when police brutality towards black people was even worse than it is now. and many experts are in no doubt — who the people mr trump loves are. matthew feldman is an expert on political extremism. he says he ‘feel obliged to say it like it is: radical right and they did so with the president's encouragement — yesterday — and many times beforehand too. so, matthew describes them as ‘radical right insurrectioninsts‘. let‘s speak to him now to find out abit more what that actually means.

why would use that phrase to describe the people we saw yesterday? well, i think we need to start with the president starting a political riot. those were their comments are to imagine that any of that would‘ve happened had not for president donald trump‘s shenanigans. in many believed his lies about there being some sort of fraud around the elections and these people were already not willing to accept the democratic vote in 2020. if you don‘t believe the election was fair, though can make you a conspiracy theorist so you cannot back up claims of widespread fraud, that does not make you a radical member of the writer a far right person. it also doesn't make you somebody she was all for law and order. those people were breaking the law by forcing their way into the law by forcing their way into the capitol building in the were doing so in the celebration, 220 year celebration of the peaceful tra nsfer of year celebration of the peaceful transfer of power and we cannot say that anymore because the peaceful

tra nsfer of that anymore because the peaceful transfer of power was broken by a violent riot that led to four deaths, donald trump and some of his enablers have blood on their hands and it‘s on the key stories of right—wing extremism. breakthrough history is that it also can seduce conservative elites and that is something that i think my colleagues andi something that i think my colleagues and i at the centre of analysis on the radical right have been very alarmed about for a number of months going on since before the election. we have seen the actions of a relatively small cloud have an absolutely enormous impact in america. how do people like you could study these movements assess our representative this relatively small group of people is over what may be happening across the country? their representative from a group of people in one location. we do know that something like 45% of republicans agreed with what they did yesterday and so already, we‘re talking about tens and tens of

millions of problems which means you cannot just arrest your way of this issue as much as i like to see the people who were insurrectionist arrested and face the full penalty of law, but this is much bigger than we of law, but this is much bigger than we say yesterday, it‘s a combination of enabling this kind of behaviour and right—wing extremism by president trump. let's talk about the way people from the radical right co—ordinate because to the untrained eye, it seems you had a very broad coalition of people marching towards the capital yesterday and i didn‘t look like it was one uncoordinated group.. there were people hanging back, the proud boys and other far read groups like the three percentages in the oath keepers who looked to be coordinating action and i think it was important to see from some of those images, some of the people that zip ties, there are reports of aeds being left around the capitol building. that is straight up domestic terrorism and that had an element of planning before the end of the day. what we saw, some of the

scenes were spontaneous, opportunistic violent writing. there is no doubt that there was a hard co re is no doubt that there was a hard core of fascism and neo—nazis who were there were willing to pick up the pieces and really push things to the pieces and really push things to the more extreme ends that we saw culminate with the loss of life. stay with us on 0utside source — still to come. some of the photographs that have emerged from the capitol have captured the drama, the horror and the importance of the moment. almost one and a half million people have now been vaccinated against coronavirus in the uk — with a target to cover the most vulnerable groups by the middle of february. the health secretary matt hancock attended a surgery this morning to promote the vaccination drive, only to discover a consigment of the oxford astrazeneca

vaccine had yet to arrive. naomi grimley reports. it‘s an exciting day today. you‘re going to get your vaccine to prevent you getting the covid. a wartime—like endeavour in peacetime. the next few days are due to see a massive ramping—up of this national effort, in the hope of vaccinating 13 million vulnerable people by mid—february. this morning, the health secretary matt hancock was hearing how gps will begin to take on a larger part of the roll—out, especially now the 0xford—astrazeneca jab will start arriving in surgeries. there was a hitch, though, because the surgery he went to didn‘t get its expected delivery of the oxford vaccine. it all adds to questions about if the government‘s ambitions are achievable. it‘s just more frustrating than a concern, because we‘ve got capacity to vaccinate, and if we had a regular supply, we do have the capacity to vaccinate 3,000 to 4,000 patients a week.

we have been running since the middle of december, labour says the incident shows why ministers need to move heaven and earth to get the programme up to speed. so, what reassurance is the government offering that it can increase supplies and vaccinate two million people every week? the rate—limiting step is the supply of vaccine, and we are working with the companies, both pfizer and astrazeneca, to increase the supply. i just want to thank all the gp surgeries who have been working hard to get the vaccine out so far and are now going to have more vaccine coming through so that they can get all of those vulnerable groups vaccinated. this is 0utside source live from the bbc newsroom. 0ur lead story is?

president—elect biden says the blame for wednesday‘s riots on capitol hill lies with donald trump, who he says has spent four years trying to undermine american democracy. donald trump‘s facebook account has been suspended for the rest of his presidency — at least. trump had continued to post messages in support of the people who attacked the capitol. facebook ceo mark zuckerberg put out this statement. it was a video from yesterday that seems to have done this. here‘s part of it. this was a fraudulent election. but we this was a fraudulent election. but we cannot play into the hands of these people. we have to have peace.

so, go home. we love you, you‘re very special. you see what happens, you see the way others are treated that are so bad and so evil. i know how you feel. soon after it was posted that video was removed from twitter, facebook and youtube. it was among three tweets that were deleted. this is one of them. needless to say — no—one‘s been treated unfairly with this election result. donald trump lost. twitter said these three tweets were "severe violations of our civic integrity policy". you wonder what you have to do to get banned. but for the moment it‘s a suspension. youtube says it pulled the president‘s video due to "policies regarding content that alleges widespread fraud or errors changed the outcome."

for many though — this is farfar too little too late. you can‘t understand what happened yesterday without understanding online misinformation — and that misinformation is rampant on these platforms. has been for years — largely unchecked. look at this from tesla and spacex ceo elon musk. he tweeted this image — called the domino effect. it shows a tiny domino marked — a website to rate women on campus — that remember is how facebook started. the final huge domino is marked ‘the capitol seems to be under the control of a man in a viking hat‘. his point being that facebook, more than any other company, is central to how misinformation has impacted us politics. james clayton is with us from san francisco and james, as all sang, for many critics of facebook, this is really way after the courses vaulted. people of and cons for very

long time with this really shows is that the power from long time with this really shows is that the powerfrom donald long time with this really shows is that the power from donald trump long time with this really shows is that the powerfrom donald trump is slowly slipping away. they would not be doing this if there was a year or two beers left of doldrums presidency. got two weeks left and he‘s going to start being treated like a normal person because they literally have rules to give the presidency all sorts of power on twitter that you would not get as a normal person. so he has been able to tweet all sorts of things extremism and kinda get away with the because he‘s the president. when he is not present any more, you‘ll just be a normal player and if i‘m a normal person in a tweet stuff like that that incites violence, fake news, particularly around things like covid—19 or the election, i would be ticked off these platforms and donald trump now can expect to be ticked off of these platforms if he continues to do this. you say you might be kicked off the platforms but in reality, millions of people, millions of americans in the case of this have been known to consume

misinformation freely, notjust on facebook but on all major platforms for yea rs facebook but on all major platforms for years and efforts to check that do not seem to have had a huge amount of impact. exactly in one thing thatjoe biden is really hard on is that social media has not done enough to stop this. joe biden wants to get rid of something caught section 230 which gives big tech immunity from being prosecuted for things that people post and mandate that they take some of the stuff off. hate speech, extremism, fake news, joe biden is really hard on this and of course, marks on this and of course, marks are mark zuckerberg and they are trying to show that they‘re going to been donald trump. and this is the behind—the—scenes politics of what the joe behind—the—scenes politics of what thejoe biden behind—the—scenes politics of what the joe biden administration behind—the—scenes politics of what thejoe biden administration want big tech to do. salute, james, thank you for explaining to us.

but the media was there — and it documented what happened. some of the photographs that have emerged have captured the drama, the horror and the importance of the moment. and have been shared the world over. in particular this one. a man carrying the confederate flag through the building. or this — of the man who took a seat in nancy pelosi‘s office and left her a note saying ‘we will not back down‘. and then this — of protestors brandishing a flag that reads ‘trump is my president‘. all of those photos were taken byjim lo scalzo — from the european pressphoto agency. jim, we appreciate you joining us for such a busy time. that confederate flag picture has been shared an extraordinary amount of times, what is led up to that?

right, it‘s about 215, i heard a commotion outside of the chamber and i went down and i encountered for the first 20 of the fascists yelling and screaming at police and as com pletely and screaming at police and as completely confused wondering how these guys got in and why they were not being arrested. so, i photographed there for about five or ten minutes and all at once, it became like a zombie movie. people were smashing through doors and windows, there are running down the hallways the nagging from statues, their rampaging through the rotunda, skim thejoe their rampaging through the rotunda, skim the joe biden their rampaging through the rotunda, skim thejoe biden was a paedophile and the donald trump was sent by god and the donald trump was sent by god and that the media should be rounded up and that the media should be rounded up and it was all very quick. in those moments when they passed you by, that they pay any attention? yes, they did. they were shouting threats, some tried to grab my credential. when my colleagues had her gear smashed and stolen and there were some tense moments there for the journalists at the capital.

tell me what you saw in nancy plus his office. in the rotunda i heard that her office is near the rotunda andi that her office is near the rotunda and i noticed people were running for the holy of her office and i thought those impossible because it is normally extremely secure, so i thought those impossible because it is normally extremely secure, surrounded there with them and i saw some people lingering around in the office had been, there had been some looting in there and something smashed it i ran into a guy that was sitting at a desk there, putting up his feet saying how happy he was to have finally infiltrated the space. when the most striking things about your photo is that you captured almost comical in some ways, the incredibly offensive ways that these people were dressing. yes, it was very strange but i am afraid we are a land of disaffected conspiracy theorists and they struck me as willfully diluted in this disconnected from reality. in the pictures that we are looking at now, sing the donald trump is my

president and all these people lining up in front of you, just described that moment and how the tea m described that moment and how the team to be in the formation. described that moment and how the team to be in the formationm happened so quickly, i remember thinking, at the moment, my god this is actually happening. they‘ve actually infiltrated the rotunda of the capital. so, it was big chaotic and was attempted to keep moving in which you stand still, you become more of a target for some of these people. and as you are taking the pictures, do you think you‘re taking images that would be impacted around the world? i certainly hope so. are you aware that your witness to something quite like a being in america. i remember thinking at the moment that this was sickening and also inevitable. a combination of four years of donald trump american carnage. we appreciate you speaking with us and of course can find those online and there is much more in the

story and bbc dot com and we will see you soon. goodbye. hello. temperatures have been dropping rapidly since a sunset on thursday. well below freezing on much of the uk already. through the course of tonight we are are be seen those cold conditions continuing. this was the picture in northumberland earlier on. snow over there and parts of northern england and of midlands in wales will see more sleet and snow through tonight. some icy stretches developing as well. so it‘s this waterfront here slow—moving pushing south that‘s bringing the snow fall of northern england into wales. we‘ve also seen for the wintry flurries across northern and eastern parts of scotland. more snow continuing here. blowing in quite a brisk northerly went for the pen lines a couple of centimetres at lower levels. some falling as rain particular near the coast in the east.

further south across england and some parts of wales should stay mostly dry. there could be the odd wintry flurries almost anywhere. temperatures are getting below freezing for that —6 perhaps —10 degrees across rural parts of scotland. a cold night for northern ireland. into friday morning we‘ve got more snow piling up across parts of northern england. some of it quite heavy. some flurries of snow into wales into the north midlands. perhaps some rain, sleet showers in east anglia. it should be dried to the south but that chilly temperature is about two to four degrees. scotland and northern ireland have a drier day with some sunshine again cold with those temperatures just a few degrees above freezing at best. heading into the weekend, a subtle change of the wind starts to turn a little bit more westerly. there will be some rain and hail snow pushing into the far northwest of scotland later in the day. much of the uk and friday on saturday for some mist and frost and fog clearing away gradually force up a little bit less cold that has been.

about two to five degrees. still quite chilly but there are some blue skies and sunshine to compensate. sunday cloud drifting and pressed many parts of the uk. brightest in the south in the east as well. but those temperatures just starting to nudge up gradually by a few degrees. still likely to see a frosty morning. temperatures by the afternoon about five to seven celsius. still below average but not as cold as it has been recently. as we look ahead into next week things are starting to change. temperatures will be on the rise. and things are looking quite unsettled through much of the week. bye.

this is bbc news. i‘m kasia madera. the headlines at eight... after hundreds of protestors stormed the us capitol building last night, president trump has been blamed for inciting the violence, both from senior members of his own party and from president—electjoe biden. yesterday, in my view, one of the darkest days in the history of our nation. an unprecedented assault on our democracy. the democratic speaker of the house, nancy pelosi, has called for president trump‘s removal — and here, the prime minister also spoke out against the president‘s behaviour i unreservedly condemn encouraging people to behave in the disgraceful way that they did in the capital.
