hello and welcome to our viewers joining us here in the united states and all around the world. you're watching cnn. i'm robyn curnow. coming up this hour, house speaker nancy pelosi says she will move forward with the motion to impeach president donald trump if he doesn't resign for encouraging wednesday's insurrection at the u.s. capitol. this as twitter permanently bans the president saying his tweets spur further violence. police say they found bombs and guns near the capitol. live from cnn center, this is "cnn newsroom" with robyn

curnow. with just 11 days remaining in his term, donald trump faces the very real possibility of becoming the first u.s. president to be impeached twice. a single article of impeachment is expected to be introduced in the u.s. house of representatives on monday. it accuses the president of incitement of insurrection for wednesday's deadly siege of the u.s. capitol by a pro-trump mob. five people have died including a capitol police officer. and twitter suspended the president's account permanently. and congressional democrats would prefer that theed me resign immediately or be removed under the 25th amendment of the u.s. constitution, neither, though, is considered likely so impeachment is the next probable next move as manu raju now explains and how that could play

out. >> reporter: house democrats are pushing ahead and may make donald trump a historic figure in his regard, the only president in american history who could be impeached twice. this comes in the aftermath of the demands by nancy pelosi, the house speaker and other top democrats that the president resign, or that they -- vice president mike pence and the presidential cabinet invoke the 25th amendment of the constitution, to force the president out of office. now, there's no indication the president is going to resign. there's no indication that pence is going to invoke the 25th amendment. and there are all indications that democrats trying to push ahead to impeach donald trump. and what the democrats are looking at is one article of impeachmentment, looking at the incitement of an insurrection. that is the article with which they would charge the president with committing a high crime misdemeanor. according to this document that i obtained it shows that they accused the president of high

primes by his action post-election. his efforts to try to overturn the election. of course, all culminating on wednesday when he incited that violent and deadly mob to come to capitol hill and led to the deaths of five individuals so far. and so much destruction and damage and fear here in this capitol building caused by that mob of trump supporters. this comes as some republicans seem open to the idea of removing the president from office. and at least one republican so far calling on the president to resign. lisa murkowski of alaska. now, there's still questions how this will work. the democrats, if they go ahead are looking at a possible vote in the full house by the middle of next week. but will there be enough time for an impeachment trial before he's done. highly unlocaikeunlikely. and could kick the matter toed

bide sadministration. and they could have an impeachment at that point and prevent donald trump from ever running for office again. all of those decisions again, on the next day or so, on the horizon as they push ahead to make donald trump out the only one of presidents impeached and twice only one of them. twitter has banned the president for life. the risk of him inciting riots is too deadly. as brian seltzer explains and why losing twitter is an especially hard blow to this president. brian. >> reporter: hey, yes, it's hard to imagine president trump without a twitter account. those two words trump and twitter have been linked together for the past four year.

he's used it to mobile united states his followers to share incendiary information. and all that has been taken away. twitter has banned him. they call it a permanent suspension. it is a ban. this is the first time any world leader is known to have been banned from twitter. it is a moment in silicon valley history. and also a moment in political history. and one has to wonder how trump is reacting. how he is feeling about this decision. the white house did release a statement from trump. he railed against twitter's decision, he tried to get his followers to follow him to other platforms. he said he'll come up with other ways to communicate via social media. make no mistake, he has built up a special following on to witter that cannot be re-created anywhere else. he had more than 80 million followers and cannot take that to somewhere else over night. twitter says the decision has been made partly because of fears of further violence.

they are concerned that trump will cause further violence from days to come. and could turn to riots. that is a real fear of silicon valley executives, twitter and facebook and youtube platforms, other companies. they do not want to be seen as even partially responsible for any further violence in the united states in the days and weeks to come. brian stelter, cnn, new york. donald trump isn't the only person to lose access to twitter. the company has been cracking down on thousands of accounts that spread conspiracies. sidney powell and michael flynn have also now been blocked from the platform for promoting the conspiracy group qanon. and google will no longer carry parlor in its app store.

and then on friday before his account was suspended president trump tweeted that he would not attend joe biden's inauguration. he'll be the first u.s. leader to skip his replacement's swearing in for more than 150 years. the president-elect isn't exactly broken up about it as jeff zeleny said in a report. jeff. >> he's one of the most incompetent presidents in the history of the united states of america. so, the idea that i think he shouldn't be out of office yesterday is not an issue. >> reporter: president-elect joe biden sparing no words for president trump. but not embracing impeaching him in the final days of a tumultuous term. >> so, i think it's important we get on with the business getting him out of office the quickest way that will happen is us being sworn in on the 20th. >> reporter: biden insisted it was up to congress to decide how to deal with trump's conduct that incited deadly violence

this week at the capitol. he said his focus was having the nation on its mounting challenges. >> i'm focused on the virus, vax seen and economic growth. what congress decides to do is for them to decide. >> reporter: biden issued a call for a full investigation into the breach of the capitol, an attack he said was carried out by thugs and domestic terrorists. >> the damage done to you're reputation around the world by a president of the united states encouraging a mob, a mob, this reminded me more of states i've visited in the over 100 countries i've gone to. in third ten-horn dictatorships. it has to be immediately held accountable. >> reporter: biden said the events of the week made him consider his hope that trump would attend the inauguration to

show the world's peaceful transfer of power. >> one. few things he and i ever agreed on, it's a good thing i'm not showing up. >> reporter: he said vice president pence was welcome and was heartened that so many republicans stood against trump's attempt to steal the election. >> i've worked very hard with and against the soon to be former majority leader mitch mcconnell. i thought what he said on the floor of the united states senate was in fact the right thing to do. he stood up. he's ashamed. i spoke with the guy i have enormous respect for, enormous respect for, and i ran against him, mitt romney. i spoke to mitt this morning again. this is a man of enormous integrity. enormous integrity, who lives his faith. >> reporter: when asked whether the horrific events of the week made his task of unifying the country even more difficult, biden said this -- >> i think it makes my job

easier, quite frankly. i've had a number of my republican colleagues, former colleagues, i used to serve in the senate for a long time, call me. they are -- many of them are as outraged and disappointed and embarrassed and mortified by the president's conduct as i am. and democrats are. we must unify the country. >> reporter: but it is that very question of unity that hangs over this impeachment decision. if democrats in the house were 230 go forward against impeachment proceedings what would senate republicans do. that's one of the concerns that mr. biden has trying to unify the country when he takes over on january 20th. jeff zeleny, wilmington, delaware. >> jessica is one of the authors of a podcast. wonderful to have you on the show. what we're seeing on the tech giants across the board, it seems like, they've certainly

come down hard on president trump, silencing him on social media. it's been a defiant, timed and very coordinated effort, hasn't it? >> it has. it does feel like there are a lot of people abandoning this sinking ship. and sometimes, when the first person starts, then other people or corporations will follow. so, i think that's what happened. it was a big deal for twitter to suspend the president's account just temporarily. and then when they decided, today, okay, this is enough. you are permanently banned, that essentially gives the other tech companies cover to say, okay, we are going to follow suit. these posts, they also violate our external policies. >> so, now it's not just president trump, it's not just his twitter feed, we have websites, hash tags, podcasts, message boards all linked to the president and supporters. they've also been shut down, again, across the board, on different platforms.

in a country that is so hyper sensitive about first amendment rights, how likely does it mean that not only are these moves censureships but court challenges? >> extremely likely. as we said, we have a very first first amendment censureship in our country. even first amendment purists, i used to think of myself as one are worried about what is currently happening with the massive amounts of disinformation. look at what's happened. we have a capitol under siege. we have our elected officials, cowering, praying, calling their loved ones inside the floor of the house. why? because people say things that are fraudulent and not based in reality. will there be lawsuits? absolutely. will they be successful? i don't know, because, again,

the first amendment protects against government incursions. twitter is not the government. facebook is not the government. google play is not the government. it will be a huge sea change in our country if we do try and clamp down on this disinformation. it's not going to happen through the law, likely. it will happen, instead, by what we're seeing now, private companies deciding this is enough. >> there's also talk, though, about the second push by the democrats to impeach the president. practically, how much can they push through in the next two weeks? so, the next question, obviously, is this really a political move? or is there some legal flexibility here? >> both. so there is a physical universe in which it is in fact possible to impeach the president and even remove him from office in less than two weeks. f we truly believe that the president poses a national security risk, the house can draw up articles of impeachment over the weekend.

it sounds like they're going to do that. they can vote on them very quickly and then they can say to the senate, now is your time. you need a trial. trials don't have to last weeks and weeks. trials don't even have to last two days. the real issue is that i still don't think there's a super majority of the senate. i still don't think there are 67 members of the senate that would vote to convict. at that point, the impeachment probably does become symbolic. now, why does it matter? in part to try and get the president to move from office. in part, because as a consequence of impeachment, you could say he can never run for office again. that would be a big deal. it would clamp down on what could say for the next four years and the money he could raise for the next four years. >> that's interesting. one other thing, president-elect biden says the one that he and president trump should agree on that mr. trump should not be at

the inauguration. it's now become a flash point date. a security concern. a reminder that the president does not want to hand over power despite losing. how dangerous, do you think, the next two weeks are? and in particular, that day that joe biden takes over? >> i think that there are serious security concerns. if you just think about, for instance, in relationship where somebody is behaving badly. and then they realize that the relationship is going to end, that's the scariest part, right? because you don't know what that person is going to do. the fact that we have news reports that the speaker of the house nancy pelosi has been assured that military will prevent the president of the united states from launching a nuclear war, again, just reports, these are extraordinary times. and that's a very precarious place to be in. again, just a few hours ago, really, our capitol was under siege. there were violent rioters, not protesters, that forced our elected representatives to shelter in place.

i think the inauguration is going to be the next big day where we look and we worry about potential violence. and i think it will be a fairly smallal fair, when we talk about the inauguration as a result. >> okay. thanks so much. always great to think to you there. jessica levinson. thank you. >> thank you. images of that riot at the u.s. capitol shocked the world. now, those same scenes are used to find the perpetrators and bring them to justice. we'll have the latest on the investigation. plus, covid vaccinations in the u.s. still lagging woefully behind expectations. a little later in the show we will explain incoming president joe biden's plan to speed up the shots and why it's already controversial. that's next, too. see. deeper than whu i'm craving something we're missing. the ceramides in cerave. cerave contains three essential ceramides, to restore the ones we've lost

♪ to show you the footage here, cnn has obtained new video of the u.s. sought on the u.s. capitol. it was shot by photojournalist

john harrington. thousands of angry supporters as you can see pressed on to police. harrington says he's covered numerous riots in his career, wednesday's mob was one of the most frightening. he said he was hit with a chair and fire extinguish during the mail mai mayle but was protected. and the director of proud boys was there. he admitted he was there. he posted his tweet with the caption hello from the capitol. more on others facing charges. >> reporter: new court documents detailed the larges against lonny coffman of alabama who officials say packed his truck with 11 molotov cocktails, a handgun and assault rifle and parked it only a block from the capitol grounds. he's one of 13 people just

charged by the department of justice, as investigators are scouring the internet for images to identify those involved on wednesday's attack on the capitol. federal officials also just charged west virginia state lawmaker derrick evans after he live streamed from inside the capitol and identified himself. >> i'm in the capitol. >> reporter: evans attorney insists his client is not a criminal, instead, exercising his first amendment right as, quote, activist and journalist, evans since deleted the clip but west virginia's governor did not mince words on what he saw. >> it's a scar on west virginia. how in the world could we possibly, possibly think that's anything but bad stuff? >> reporter: also arrested, the man seen sitting at the desk of house speaker nancy pelosi's office. richard barnett of arkansas face

a trio of charges including theft of federal property, an act he detailed in a local television interview on thursday. >> sat down at my desk, i'm a taxpayer, i'm a patriot. that ain't her desk. he saint appreciating the desk. i thought i'd sit down and appreciate the desk. i threw my feet up on the desk. >> reporter: but not all of the consequences are coming through the justice system. a texas attorney is no longer employed by his insurance company after posting what he called peacefully demonstrating on facebook. a maryland marketing company fired a worker seen inside the capitol wearing his company i.d. badge. and former pennsylvania state lawmaker resigned from his post as an adjunct after posting this video. >> trying to run out all the evil people there. all that betrayed our president. >> reporter: police in their

offices distributing photos of who restored the capitol and now saying they received 17,000 tips. d.c. active police chief said they will aggressively pursue persons of interest. >> we still have a significant amount of work ahead of us to identify and hold each and every one of the violent mob accountable for their actions. >> reporter: investigators say photos are key for them. the fbi set up a portal so people can upload their own. but in an area already laden with cameras, it will be especially hard to hide from the law. pete muntean, cnn, washington. as as unfolding in the u.s. capitol, mr. tread dmp try to stop the riots. instead focusing on election results. the president was asking allies to delay electoral college vote counts. now, mr. trump also tried to call newly elected republican tommy tuberville.

we know because he misdialed another republican mike lee. a spokesman confirmed calls from both mr. trump and his attorney rudy giuliani. now, there certainly appear to be stark differences between how the police handled the capitol riots and black lives matter crowds. i want to show you june where police cleared out the black lives matter, arresting 300 people. that's five times more than the police made on wednesday after lifting up a barricade to let trump supporters enter the grounds. a curfew was not announced head of the confrontation. most of the charges were for less serious misdemeanors as well. coming up on cnn, president trump's final days in office now forever branded by the most intense uprising by supporters, u.s. lawmakers are preparing to impeach the president a second time for inciting this deadly mob. plus, covid is not letting

♪ good to see you. welcome back to our viewers here in the united states and all around the world. i'm robyn curnow. it's just 29 minutes past the hour. so, no known u.s. president has ever been impeached twice. donald trump could be the first. a single article of impeachment is expected monday in the u.s. house of representatives. it will accuse the president of incitement for insurrection for wednesday's deadly siege at the u.s. capitol. president trump is believed to

be the first ever world leader ever banned from twitter as well. the group said they permanently suspended the tweet for the siege. >> reporter: donald trump is facing the head spinning prospect of becoming the first u.s. president to be impeached twice. his sudden commitment to an orderly transition maybe too little too late. >> a new administration will be inaugurated on january 20th. my focus now turns to insuring a smooth, orderly and seamless transition of power. this moment calls for healing and reconciliation. >> good afternoon. >> reporter: house speaker nancy pelosi and her fellow democrats are now marching toward impeachment proceedings against the president, all the while making sure mr. trump doesn't do anything drastic. as pelosi told her democratic colleagues i spoke to the chairman of joint chiefs of staff mark milley to prevent the president from initiating

military act sifts or accessing the launch codes to launch a nuclear strike. house democrats say they're willing to act quickly. >> we're not just doing this for the next 12 or 13 days. we're doing this for generations to come. and if we are not willing to state that the october act by t president of the united states to incite domestic terrorism and insurrection is an impeachable offense, then nothing is an impeachable offense. >> reporter: if the house impeaches the president some senate republicans who did vote to convict and remove red trump the last time around say they may have a change of heart. >> the house if they come together and have a process i will definitely consider whatever articles they might move. because as i told you, i believe the president has disregarded his oath of office. >> reporter: white house advisers a there is zero chance the president will resign. with one source telling cnn, quote, he doesn't think he did anything wrong. even former white house

officials say mr. trump should consider stepping down. >> they alied this lie to take a life of its own that the election might be overturned. when the moment called for leadership, he did not do the right thing. and lives were lost because of it. >> reporter: some of the president's top enablers are also facing calls to resign like republican senator ted cruz who released a statement condemning the violence at the capitol saying now we must come together and put this anger and division behind us. we must stand side by side as americans. we must continue to defend our constitution and the rule of law. that's after he was amping up viewers. >> you were patriots gathered the bunker hill. just like the patriots gathered at valley forge. >> reporter: other trump loyalists are feeling the wrath of the trump base after gop senator lindsey graham told mr. trump to give up the fight. >> when it is over it is over. it is over. >> reporter: and trump supporters were screaming

traitor. at the airport. >> traitor traitor! >> it's going to be like this forever wherever you go the rest of your life. >> reporter: mr. trump signaled he won't congratulate president-elect joe biden on his election day tweeting he won't be going. giving the capitol a break for having the instigator in chief a break. >> we fight, we fight like hell and if you don't fight like hell you're not going have a country anymore. >> reporter: and the white house leased a statement saying a politically motivated appearance by the president with 12 days remaining in his term will further divide our great country. of course, democrats see the proceedings as absolutely necessary. jim acosta, cnn, the white house. >> earlier, i spoke to the teachers global politicses in london and i asked him about this moment in history. take a listen.

>> reporter: i think it's a beginning and an end, it's an end in the sense that the elites in the republican party, people like mitch mcconnell are finally acknowledged that trump is dangerous, right? we knew he was for a very long time but people denied his danger are now accepting it and condemning him unequivocally. that's important. at the same time, trump has conditioned his base to cheer for authoritarian tactics. to cheer for violence. to cheer for demonization of political opponents. that does not end on january 20th. trump has remade the republican party in his image. i think what you'll see over the next two to four years is an internal fight over the republican party for his future. is it going to try to return to the days of john mccain and the sort of decency that you saw in the republican party? or is it going to continue with trump 2.0s? that's the fight we'll see. unfortunately, the base is still -- we saw in a poll recently that about half of republicans had some level of

approval for insurrection of violently storming the capitol resulting in the deaths of five people. this is a long-term problem and something that's foreseeable. and republicans made the bet that they could get away with enabling it and now creating serious consequences on display for all to see. >> i also want to talk about the push to impeach the president. you talk about this is a president who in many ways wallows in victimhood. does this push -- is it necessary? or do you agree, perhaps, with lindsey graham who says this might incite or get mr. trump's supporters to see him as a victim. and that this is counterintuitive, especially? or do you think this is a way for the republican party to make its choice, potentially turn against him? >> well, i signed an open letter with around 2,000 political scientists calling for trump to be removed from office for two

reasons. one is the immediate threat, right? we have seen in the last several months that trump lives in a delusional world. what he says is untrue, it's fiction. it's causing violence based on that fiction. i don't want to gamble in the next 11 days that something else doesn't happen, right? that's one reason. the second reason is precedent. if you don't impeach the president over this, you can't impeach future presidentstransg. you have to draw a line in the sand and there are consequences. even if the impeachment doesn't proceed quickly enough to get him out of office before january 20th, i still think it's worth doing to ensure that future presidents understand if they behave like donald trump, there will be serious consequences for him. and the first time in u.s. history that a president will be twice impeached and again stain his legacy and that is important for ressa dent as well. >> brian klaas from university college of london speaking to me

earlier. that riot at the u.s. capitol could very well prove to be another superspreader event. cdc director robert redfield said the mostly unmasked club could expose law enforcement to the virus. at the same time, the vaccine rollout continues to lag far behind the expectations. more than 22 million doses distributed to states only 6.5 million have actually gone into peoples' arms. large scale vaccinations can't come too soon. already 2021 is bringing record covid deaths as erica hill now reports. >> reporter: the first week of 2021, shattering records. more than 20,000 covid-related deaths. over 4,000 reported thursday alone. topping daily highs set just the day before. but numbers only tell us so much. >> every day i live knowing that my dad passed from covid. or my uncle passed from covid. >> reporter: families forever

changed with no end in sight. former hot spots reaching sobering new levels. arizona now averaging 9,000 new cases a day. up 139% from its july highs. in texas, new cases are 86% higher than its previous peak. and then there's california. >> we're running low on water. sterile water is needs for specific types of ventilation for people on breathing machines. >> reporter: the los angeles area hit particularly hard. >> every six seconds a new case and every eight minutes somebody is dying here. >> reporter: a new cdc model estimates more than 60% of covid transmission comes from people with no symptoms of the virus, under scoring the importance of wearing masks. keeping our distance and handwashing. meantime, new frustrations as vaccinations slow. >> nothing is more important than vaccinating nursing home

residents. that was supposed to be a federal responsibility under the original plan. guess what, i know this won't shock a lot of you, the federal government isn't getting the job done. >> reporter: shots are getting in arms, west virginia, teachers, veterans in pennsylvania, and just three states have administered more than 50% of the doses they received. the head of the fda encouraging states to expand eligibility. >> we think that will go a long way towards using these vaccines appropriately and getting into the arms of individuals. >> reporter: while a coalition of governors is demanding the federal government release the doses its been holding back. writing the failure to distribute these doses is unconscionable and unacceptable. >> good afternoon. >> reporter: as states wait for an answer, cnn has learned president-elect biden plans to release all available doses. >> vaccines give us hope. but the rollout has been a travesty. >> we've got to vaccinate as many people as quickly as

possible to defeat this virus. >> reporter: one bit of good news, a new study finds the pfizer biontech vaccine might be effective against two new strains of the virus, first identified in the uk and south africa. that uk variant has now been found in at least eight u.s. states. here in new york, governor andrew cuomo announcing the state will move into phase 1b on monday for vaccinations. it will begin scheduling them for those over age 75. first responders, public transit and public safety and education workers. in new york, i'm erica hill, cnn. covid is carrying through the uk as well. london's mayor has now declared a major incident because of the strain on the national health service. i want to go straight to london. nina dos santos is standing by with more on this. very worrying signs from where you are. >> reporter: very worrying, considering had the mayor of

london, his data has shown 1 in 20 people across the british capitol were carrying covid-19. and several thousand people in the hospital, that was a 35% increase versus the first wave. that's been echoed by the head of the nhs who said it was the equivalent of having one of the large hospitals coming in every single day with covid-19. so, in the midst of all of this, the uk has also not stopped another grim daily milestone when it comes to the coronavirus death toll. 1,328 people lost their lives, 28 days after having a covid positive test on friday, 68,000 more people were infected. in terms of the daily death toll, friday's numbers were the worst so far since the pandemic started. all in all, the uk has lost 80,000 of its citizens to this virus, making it the fifth worst hit country anywhere in the world. so authorities are desperately trying to tell people to take this seriously and to stay at

home, wherever they can. they've launched a major social media initiative that has gone live just a few hours ago earlier today. the chief medical officer of the government has said essentially behave as though you have coronavirus because you could be passing it on. it's so prevalent within these communities. also for international travelers watching this, agency of next week, those visiting the uk will have to show they're covid negative and have had a test 72 hours before arriving on these shores. robyn. >> nina, stay stave. north korea has announced plans to build a nuclear submarine and add to the nuclear stockpile. what does kim jong-un's ambitions mean for the region. and we'll go to seoul to find out. stelara® can provide relief, and is the only approved medication to reduce inflammation on and below the surface of the intestine in uc. you, getting on that flight? back off, uc. stelara® may increase your risk of infections,

korea stance as far as kim jong-un is concerned, saying the only way that relations between the u.s. and north korea will improve is if the u.s. ends its hostile policy. this is something we have heard before, but as i say, the first mention of a new power in the united states, since the election itself. now, there was also an awful lot about the military size. the weaponry. different stages of development that north korea is working on. a nuclear powered submarine. solid fuel, i'm cbm, this is th intercontinental ballistic missile. and north korea saying once again, they wouldn't be the first to use the nuclear weapons, they will only use them in defense. and if you're looking for a sliver of optimism, they have also pointed out, despite the rampup of weaponry that kim jong-un is talking about, it does not exclude diplomacy. just a slight mention that diplomacy is not completely out
