go. we love you. interruption congress gets back to business with. the winner of the 20 twentieth's. the events in washington d.c. condemn the violence and some commentators branding the scene is a disgrace to democracy. you're hearing right now from european countries who are looking at this nation as if it was some banana republic. watching the international. people have died. from supporters stormed congress as it debated certifying joe biden's fake tree they had gathered in washington for a last state stop the steel rally in support of the defeated president and.

saw the events unfold on capitol hill. well the atmosphere out here is absolutely incredible right now as you can see president trump is speaking addressing a huge crowd which is over by the white house but we're all backed up all the way to the washington monument. we know that people were storming into the capitol we know that tear gas was fired and we also know that rubber bullets were fired but i was just showing video a minute ago it from inside the capitol of a young woman on a stretcher bleeding pretty proof usually had a lot of blood on the side of her head on the side of her neck and. a. number of police and secret service were saying get back get down get out of the way she did leave the car and as we kind of raced up to grab people pull them back

they shot her in the neck and she fell back on me and started to say she's fine it's cool and then she started kind of like moving weird and blood was coming out of the mouth and neck and nose just behind me there are thousands of people there on the other side of me there are thousands of people so you know when when those folks move from from the trump rally and speech where we were before down at the washington monument and they began to move this way it's a sea of people. way up at the top of this building apparently there are still people attempting to break into the capitol building there banging on windows up there. what we're seeing are a series of flash bangs that keep going off it's the upper part of this this

platform area over on the left hand side back towards the bill. the young woman who was shot in the neck or head area apparently was part of 81st wave of people who pushed and you hear those why the way more of those flash bangs going off. and so so things are about to get a little bit rough here let's just pan over here negative so we have the capitol police are coming through we've got to move on ok we're being told we have to move on by capitol police. or our. kids much quieter minus the police sirens you hear right there but there are very few people out right now no you know last time we came to you all we got

cut off because capitol police were moving everyone out what was happening at that moment was we saw the capitol police come essentially with their right shields. american spends one reporter now with the woman who was shot inside the capitol and lighted died in hospital has been identified as and force veteran ashley babbitt from san diego she reportedly and a business that with a husband legal a media analyst line or says he's shocked by how the police let the violence unfold . it was terrible it was wrong there is this is not subject to debate pay can i ask this question because i'm a former prosecutor i tend to think perhaps like this why were the police how was this if i were in the capital of if i were a senator or a congress person or

a staff member or just a person doing business how do you go on to the floor of the senate how do you just walk in when they know about this and i'm not blaming anybody i'm not saying that because they weren't stopped these people are to blame please i've got to ask this question they had the national guard standing by you knew what was going to happen in some particular cases when would it be a lamb or are march breaks out or gets violent what do they do think they did we did call it a park or day they paid you know yellow black lives matter signs where the rioting occurred to get wait a minute this this encourages that so we have a number of plates that are spinning the 1st one as we denounce it the 2nd one is did they not know what was going on but in addition to all of this i'm watching this thinking it's wrong but maicon why is there not one consistent action when ever there is violence does it depend upon who is the perceived instigator of the

violence and by the way if you don't think there were agent provocateurs in this or you have to go back and look at these tapes and see who is who this will take a week to ferret out. what after the national guard declare congress override his representatives and senators went back to work and congress has now officially certified joe biden's election victory despite the objections of some republicans. joe biden and com are here us would be the president and the vice president according to the ballots that have been given to us. finally this turbulent dirty roller coaster presidential race is officially over we've got $306.00 votes in favor of joe biden against only $232.00 votes that go to donald trump that's a result officially certified by the u.s.

senate and finally accepted by donald trump and a tweet that wasn't even from his twitter feed but that's something that i'll tell you about a bit later so after last donald trump is promising a smooth transition of power even though i too to disagree with the outcome of the election and the facts been the arrows nevertheless there will be an orderly transition and jenna richmond however smoove this clearly not the words that can be used to describe what was happening in the u.s. capitol on wednesday because you saw the chaotic scenes with windows being smashed furniture being thrown around the iconic u.s. government building and because of that senators had to work till early in the morning to be able to deliver that certification result but want to delay and

actually i was even surprised that they were able to come back to that building after that chaos but the job had to be done and the job was done but the question is what does that do to the image of the u.s. democracy which is presented as ideal which is centuries old which is often being taught to other countries by the u.s. government in fact well you know comparing what was happening in d.c. with. the stuff from so called but now republics that is something special so clearly that was something that heavily damaged that image now well this brings me to a speech by one republican senator who was on the way to the capitol hill to deliver an objection however later she changed her mind after seeing what was going on there so this was how strong the shock from the pro trump riots was mr president when i arrived in washington this morning i fully intended to object to

the certification of the electoral votes however the events that have transpired today have forced me to reconsider and i cannot now in good conscious object to the certification. of these electors well if you think that the pro biden supporters were not active at all were silent no we could look at the scenes in new york where in times square and also outside the trump tower they were calling on donald trump to leave the white house but that wasn't only it they wanted indictments for donald trump so when we kept hearing from so many people that the u.s. society is polarized and that these are unprecedented divisions the scenes on wednesday were perhaps. a reflection of a pure climax well before talking about the reaction actually say that to assess donald trump's behavior on that day is quite

a tricky thing and we do have to remember that the riots began after a rally where donald trump was speaking the question was whether he was encouraging his supporters to do all that perhaps this wasn't a direct encourage meant but the words he was saying definitely in some way in that way or another they could have led to that kind of mood that led to riots eventually and we remember how in his speech he was saying you will remember. that day that was actually a video that was blocked on platforms like you tube facebook and twitter in fact like i mentioned twitter blog donald trump temporarily with a warning that his account could be blocked altogether thoughts why he had to deliver that announcement that he accepts the result through the twitter feed of his advisors but eventually though we remember that joe biden called on donald from to go on national television and tell as supporters to stop whether it

was that or whether it was something else that led to changing his don't slide the i don't know but eventually he said that the things that were happening in washington d.c. that was just way too much and so in that sense he agreed with joe biden still though the messages from mr biden mr trump were completely different the storm the capitol to smash windows to occupy offices. the floor of the united states senate rummaging through desks. on the capitol of the house of representatives threatening the safety of duly elected officials it's not protest it's insurrection. the world's watch makes so many other americans we don't want anybody hurt it's a very tough period of time there's never been a time like this where such a thing happened where they could take it away from all of us from me from you from

our country this was a fraudulent election but we can't play into the hands of these people. we have to have peace so go home we love you very special well like i said earlier the world is watching and that's what joe biden said as well and it's actually incredible to see that this was happening in the capital of a country that likes to explain to other countries how democracy should work so definitely this day will go into history books and all the images that we saw even though it was unable to derail the process yes joe biden is moving into the white house but what a price and it's not just a twitter account of donald trump. castle so share their insights into the unfolding political crisis in the united states. this is sit decision

this is an act to overthrow the us government people died this is beyond crazy this is a criminal act this is unprecedented i don't know that any point is certainly in recent american history has a group of has a mob essentially tried to storm the capitol during a basically a routine procedure i mean this is not the election this is the vote certification which normally gets basically no media coverage it's just routine and to see this level of iron this level of of anger and hate and passion really shows that things have kind of got off the rails in american politics this is not normal behavior in american politics this is honestly not all behavior in any politics to see this kind of violence happening on sort of a routine you know certification process there actually is great precedent for it is we 'd look back in history we would realize that the the time the documents 'd

that were style next you speak of the declaration of independence those are merely contracts signed by who agreed to be governed a certain way and when they decided that they no longer true love the way you know mr glover as americans i actually believe that the contract allows us to say we have you know how we don't like how things are going and we want to change we didn't we didn't change we voted our vote is not the cart and that's how the people you know you have a right to make their voices heard and it actually is honor courage act if you read the fine print oh the declaration where it says that if you don't the great and there comes a time when you need to do other people of your government that you may use that this is a carefully planned political strategy listen if you are seen as the loser in a contest you don't have the same spirit behind you as if you're seen as someone. was wronged in

a legal hearing and trump has very cleverly brilliantly shifted the narrative from basically i lost an election to i was wronged by the evil system trump is just getting started i cannot imagine that this is the end of it this is the midpoint if anything i expect that trump supporters who are loyal to trump who want the rest of the republican party to be more like trump they don't want trump to be more like the rest they want the rest to be more like trump i don't see this as as as as calming down any time soon i'm going to i imagine that the next 4 years you're going to see a lot more rallies a lot more potential violence unfortunately we're going to see a lot more ire and i do believe that trumps political career is very far from over everything that we are a hasn't been purchased through or people do people say we do not consent to being got ratings right and what you see right now is a repeat of history and you see people standing up and say i don't like rivers

countries had it i don't agree with the principle that each that is the govern the democratic right that isn't that what you see right now it's not about treason it's about people more american citizens saying that this is not what they signed up for facebook and twitter aren't just just censoring the president they're censoring basically anybody with a with a position that doesn't go along with the silicon valley narrative do they have the right to do it sure because does the government have a responsibility to cease any involvement with facebook definitely and most importantly do we as a as a as a community have the responsibility to say yeah i'm not going to be part of a an organization that censors people absolutely and so this is incumbent on us as people to say we will not be part of any kind of organization that censors people up to and including the president of the united states and i'm not defending mr zucker here trust me i'm not but he owns the real estate i'm walking on his lawn he's not walk. on my lawn if he decides that you've got to wear green hat on my

lawn that i have to wear green hat or i get kicked off his lawn if he wants to charge me for being on his law that i might have an expectation of privacy or protection or freedom of speech but i'm on his lawn his rules. for the international community has been left dismayed by events in washington d.c. . take a closer look at how the leaders of both america's allies and rivals have been reacting. lots of concern being expressed by world leaders at what we saw unfold in washington d.c. on wednesday from here in berlin we heard from chancellor angela merkel saying she saddened by the u. scenes also foreign minister heiko mass saying that this showed that inflammatory language resulted in violent scenes saying that we've seen a similar thing take place months ago on the steps of the reichstag here in berlin now we've seen things go even further in the capitol building in washington in fact

the bundestag here in germany has said that they're going to increase security around the reichstag building where the bundestag say it's in following what happened on wednesday in washington d.c. now u.s. allies around the world have been expressing their shock their concern and the hope that this doesn't fundamentally damage america's democracy we all saw yesterday the unsettling pictures of the storming of the u.s. congress these pictures made me angry and also sad i regret that since november president trump has failed to acknowledge his defeat and that includes yesterday in the eyes of the world american democracy appears under siege this is an unseen assault on u.s. democracy its institutions and the rule of law disgraceful scenes in u.s. congress the united states stands for democracy around the world and it has no voice or but there should be a peaceful orderly transfer of power rioters storming one of the seats of power

saying that they want to carry out a revolution isn't scenes that we usually expect to see from the united states in fact we've heard from politicians in russia who've said that this whole thing cast doubt over the u.s. is position that it's put itself in of bringer of democracy to the world saying it's well it usually in these situations it's the united states that would be backing those doing the storming of parliament building certain. that's what they've seen in the past when it comes to reaction from iran the message coming out of tehran is there's only one person to blame for wednesday when. what we saw last night and today in america demonstrates to failure of western democracy and reveals how fragile and weak his foundation is we saw what calamities a populous has imposed upon his own country over the past 4 years he's blemish the dignity and reputation of his country there's also been

a response from china where the foreign ministry has put out a warning on its web site the chinese citizens in the d.c. area telling them to strengthen precautions that they're taking judy to the mass demonstration that took place on wednesday also chinese social media has been drawing a lot of comparisons to what we saw the capital building to what we saw in the arab spring color revolutions. in anti government demonstrations in hong kong as well a lot of shock being expressed openly by world leaders a lot of people wondering what comes next for the united states well earlier we did ask our guests to you have the events on capitol hill will affect america's image abroad. there's a lot of posturing by international leaders all have been on the titular interests of their own societies but states like to further by making reference to the ones who spoke yesterday but it by proceeding double standards are have always 'd been

a small change almost so i wouldn't get too excited about these remarks or who serve as to how relations with. other sectors will develop in with in the near future as a result of what transpired when again the allies in europe in particular are very welcome in other news plans to bring back into the center of all progress and developments in climate change so i think after a few days of being destroyed nations will continue along its channels it will be as soon as it was that i definitely disagree with the president elect of saying that this is not us this is not america this is exactly what america is it started with colonization of indigenous land genocide of indigenous people pillage of

african bodies forced to work on stolen land continued it with jim crow and then of course perfected with the southern strategy of barry goldwater lee at. water richard nixon a new king and manifested today in the form of trump ism this is so called america this is exactly who we are and it is a cough for us to really get introspective and to look at ourselves before we even have the temerity to go anywhere else on this planet to preach ideas of democracy and justice and righteousness we're hearing right now from european countries who are looking at this nation as if it was some banana republic and so the scenes are very very troubling but i have to say unfortunately not too shocking when i feel kind of more pain right stan that the events that led up to the showdown that unfolded in washington. how did we get to this point of all the chaos we've seen today on capitol hill well it started with the fact that the u.s. congress was scheduled to certify the presidential election results and set things

in motion for joe biden to be inaugurated and donald trump called for a big rally of his supporters in washington d.c. to protest against that and perhaps try to stop that from happening at donald trump gave a speech to is supporters telling them that the election was rigged this is donald trump addressing his supporters just hours before chaos broke out on capitol hill does anybody believe that joe had 80000000 votes he had 80000000 computer votes democrats attempted the most brazen and outrageous election set theft in this ever been a thing like this so pure theft we will never give up we will never conceive trump supporters are certainly the talk of the town the center of the action but if you look at the alliance of forces in the country they seem to have the deck stiff pretty solidly stacked against them we're in a situation where as the chaos was happening the final results in georgia came in

and the 2 senate seats in georgia have gone to democrats democrats have won control of the senate and so now for the 1st time since 2009 democrats will control both houses of congress as well as the executive branch that's a situation where the democratic party has a pretty solid grip on power meanwhile a lot of mainstream republican voices have been denouncing donald trump and opposing what happened today on capitol hill we have a situation where it seems like the country has been effectively polarized now polls among regular republicans show that among republicans 70 percent of republicans do support donald trump do want their elected officials to be more like trump however among the population at large that's pretty clearly not the case and we've got a polarization where the country is pretty sight. ali opposed to donald trump and that polarization has favored the democratic party the democrats at this point are set to be pretty solidly in control of both houses of congress it looks like for

the moment donald trump and his movement has been defeated however it is unlikely that this will be the last thing we hear from donald trump or his supporters. neal he says that republicans will be judged by what they say about these events there is no way anybody republican democrat can defend what happened on the steps the capitol today it is unheard of and i think everyone that's why i think so immediately this is something that i was actually very very glad to see both republican senators representatives as well as t.v. pundits anybody that had anything to do on twitter quickly didn't ounce the events there were going on and told these people that they were wrong they were not patriots they were not executing their constitutional right to protest that it's peaceable protest or what they're allowed to and that they should be arrested and

fully prosecuted i think that right there showed that there is no unity right now behind what we saw happen today by the g.o.p. the republicans right now are going to have to choose their words very carefully everything they see everything they say is going to be put under a microscope i think all republicans even though they were outside protesting realize nothing was going to change joe biden was still going to be confirmed today the electors are going to be confirmed this was all the pony show that we saw a formality but none of these senators thought going into it they realistically were going to keep trump in office for 4 more years. in this in commentary to try to disbelieve the trump supporters many top did the same tactics used by liberals over the last 4 years. country is very tense it's very tense up it's very tense for a while but that's been agitated of course by economic shutdowns by lockdowns and you have at least 80000000 voters who truly believe the election was stolen from them who believed it was fraudulent and so they came to washington and they're

storming the apple or venting this is obviously something fairly new for conservatives and for the right and for truck supporters to gather in massive behave such as this but you know the other side's been doing this for 4 years let's not forget that just 2 years ago in just this cabin always being confirmed by the senate liberal stormed the supreme court so and of course obviously the liberal greens of marches started with the with the dog race day before and then kind of reach a fever pitch this summer with george will wait in the black lives matter stop and keep a stop so are we seeing i don't think that we're going to see this sort of whole long to being on the right the way that we do with the left and with we have with kids with the with liberals but you know people are upset they're venting and conservatives aren't immune from an emotional passionate response particularly when they truly believe that that that that this election was illegal and that they had it stolen from them. just kind of hop oster in the afternoon paper mosque i say

that's how events in particular in america are looking at the moment we'll be back out with more up to actually take in about half an hour. and then as that happens but the usual. but you have australian visual they go this route yet there are people. who are. used to dumb shit on the new. study do they go to political interest. but it seems to me.

you need to go to church for this new look at a lot of things are well going to appear pretty children good because there will be a choice of your voters will show you such to be able to show in the postal order grow out of this through with don't be fooled the koku are full of can churn you. point of their beautiful and hear them more to see what we're going. to put so that the new. blood. the radish to their hair for more gas to. be used when you're in the water which you're the locus of us we're going to see to be able to us dark blue god doesn't need to just what also. i do will show when you are going in there still usually does.
