and i know mark was down near the capitol and merely for having been there on that day and near the capitol, mark lost his job, lost his security clearance, and probably ended his years of service to the united states government and to people in united states because of that. ibrahim says he went to the capitol that day because he was invited by an fbi informant, a man he had known in iraq. we have confirmed this is true. we've reached out to that man, the man that ibrahim went to the protest with. he denies he encouraged anyone to break the law. but that man did confirm that he has been an fbi informant, confirmed the fbi knew he was at the capitol that day, and he confirmed he invited mark ibrahim to the protest. ibrahim says, the two of them stood outside the building, the fbi informant turned to him and strongly encouraged him to enter the capitol building. ibrahim knew that was illegal, so he refused to do it. mark ibrahim now faces 15 years in federal prison. they labeled me a domestic terrorist like i just want to see peace and unity because i've seen it in foreign countries between

we coordinated with the us capitol police nearly every day. a lot of people don't know that stop the steal actually had a permit on the capitol ground. so not the capitol itself, not the capital plaza. the capital grounds lot 8, we had a permit. so let's imagine this, 20 to 50,000 people inside the president's park. we're sitting there at the very front. i'm dead center of the president. front row. a trump campaign staffer walks up to me and says, you know, ali, there are people leaving the overflow, and they're already tens of thousands of people at the us capitol. with your presence and the presence of alex jones, why don't you guys walk down pennsylvania, gather people together. and then position them for your rally on lot 8. i wasn't at the capital when it descended into chaos. and that's only by god's grace, because i was scheduled to be there. secret service let us out at a point where we would have been there when the first punch was thrown. in that strange. the only reason that we weren't there, is because we stopped and even impromptu

in attacking the capitol.ggling moment, it seems to me. >> well, david jolly, what is clear is that they have combed over all of donald trump's allies and all the people tied to the event at the ellipse who had a speaking role and they have gone back and examined what their role was in drawing people to washington, d.c., that day. and to katty's point and to the congresswoman's point, they're examining incitement and intent to incite. i want to read more from what is in this letter or this subpoena for alex jones. they say that, you said this on your show. if you allow this multinational consortium to steal our election, you have committed not just us but yourselves to a living hell. trump is trying to do a lot of good things and he was president and he was re-elected. if you feel like you're being robbed and you've seen the evidence of that and you're upset and you have that bad sinking feeling we've all got, stand up and speak out and promote this massive event coming up in d.c. on january 6th where a sittin

from some of the earliest designs of the capitol building, there was this what you see here, capitol designed to house the tomb for george washington. of course many of you went to a capitol tour or would listen to other webinars, it's an empty tomb for george washington but from its earliest conception, it's a place of somber reflection on lessons we can learn from george washington and i think it's an important way to understand the capitol as jane mentioned, a temple of democracy. not only it's a place where we set the laws for ourselves and covenant ourselves as a people but also a place where he celebrate the best we have to offer in one those we thought. congressional gold medals and state ceremonies take place at the capitol rotunda, about the room pictured here in this image so as we push forward, it's important to think this is where our country comes together to celebrate and mourn those figures we've lost. one of the ways i've mentioned that we have paid tribute to eating figures in important people in our nations history is through the state ceremony, a somber occasion as

capitol congress. are members of congress and their staff exempt from these vaccine mandates, or are they also mandated to get the vaccine? sen. johnson: i'm sure we are exempt. they exempt themselves from all kinds of laws. i don't think it's right but nobody should be subject to vaccine mandates. i'm glad we are exempt. i just would stop coming here. i'm not going to get the vaccine. i had covid. i was very lucky i had asymptomatic covid. there's a question that's never asked. how you explain 40% to 50% of people that were asymptomatic? was there already some level of natural immunity from some other similar type of coronavirus. you had to indicate it's pretty effective if you had a coronavirus that we don't know about that prevents you from getting overly sick. another big question we should be asking is, did our response to covid work? i realize anthony fauci is the covid god. 706,000 debts, $6 trillion in spending that we don't have. the human toll, the economic devastation, the isolation, increas

capitol. no barriers strong enough to stop them nor police determined enough to stop them. police and military aligned with the people after a few hours of fistfight. we stormed the parliament and burned down state fake television. we won. i want to put up a video of what happened on january 6th. this is the described right here, november 10th. the hand to hand combat. their models were in serbia. this is what the assailants, the insurrectionists did to the capitol police. this is new video released by doj yesterday. this is exactly what was planned and communicated to donald trump supporters and the militias who understood that their commander in chief would quote, override d.c.'s ridiculous antigun laws. my question to you chris, is do these members believe they were operating in some parallel par military and that donald trump was the commander in chief? >> yes. in a word, yes. these people are completely delusional. they -- >> chris has frozen up on, we're going to get him back. michael, i

in the capitol of the united states congress. he left a message on vice president pence's desk. it is only a matter of time. justice is coming. compared to many of the defendants in federal court, this is an exceptionally bad dude. >> ryan, the sentencing so far, these are obviously all guilty pleas and they're going to work their way through all of the guilty pleas before presumably they get to any trials. how long do you think it will take to work through the gilley pleas? >> it is going to take a while. i think there's going to be a mix as it goes on because, remember, you still have cases rolling in. even today we saw at least three new defendants who were charged or had cases against them unsealed, so these cases continue to roll in. i think it is going to sort of be a mix. we will continue to see these guilty pleas. we will continue to see trials as they're scheduled into next year now that we're sort of getting a little bit out of covid. the trials are going to come on the books. but, remember, there's such a backlog of th

this is only the catapult picture, but once the congress and then the capitol -- the capitol institutions decided to facilitate this dual ceremony, this joint ceremony of high honor was to create a replica, the exact replica, second catapult that could be used when multiple caskets are needed. side by side you have the lincoln catapult. and during the laying in state, they rotated the caskets of the world war ii and korean war unknowns so that both rested on the lincoln catafalque as part of this great tribute. they were carried with great honor and somber spirit to our national cemetery for sburnment in front of and farther along the plaza that we were showing you a moment ago. now, after the conclusion of the vietnam war, congress passed a 1973 public 93-43 which authorized the selection of an sburnment of an unknown soldier in the vietnam war. there was actually at this point some skepticism that an unknown -- that there would be unknowns as we had advanced identifying technology which had been introduced by the first world war, but they had been made more reliable and were more reliab

capitol. knowing tens of thousands of people would be there protesting, there were no police officers? those that were responsible, of capitol hill police leadership, the sergeant at arm's, those are responsible for securing the u.s. capitol in that situation, they get let off the hook if the narrative takes hold that there were thousands of armed insurrectionists, look at they possibly have done to secure the u.s. capitol to prevent this breach in the face of thousands of armed insurrectionists? that's one of the reasons this has taken hold. the media, the social media, they are the communication department of the democrat party . works for them as well, politically. on a bipartisan basis, it works for a lot of people. that's why that false narrative took hold. it's one of the reasons i tried the push back on it, because it's completely false. the american people deserve the truth. >> just for trends. see for our viewers, i was at the protest on the west front of the capital and i wrote my ey

he was its major advocate on capitol hill.s concept of a tomb for the unknown soldier was one that was put to good use and was demonstrated by france and united kingdom after the first world war. this was a tremendously costly war. this was a devastating war in terms of casualties, in terms of loved ones lost. and there were significant concerns at the conclusion of the war that retrieval of remains from some of these battlefields could be fraught with peril. there were potentially unexploded things, some satisfy the chemical weapons used during the first world war posed significant risks. so france and the united kingdom actually had to restrict and chose to restrict how many of their soldiers lost during the war could be brought back to cemeteries at home. so those countries both opted to pursue the creation of a tomb of the unknown soldier in their respective capitol. westminster abbey in london and at the arc de triomphe in france. and it really served as both a civics tribute and a very personal tribute for those who went

and then it proceeded up to the capitol building as we have been discussing. the lying in the state state ceremony is a somber high honor to pay someone. and what we can see here, we mentioned briefly of the catapult and the cursor highlight here, the catapult upon which the world war i unknown rest in this images the same constructed and used for abraham lincoln and in fact, every ceremony since abraham lincoln has used the lincoln catapult which in the architect of the capitol and across the street and they preserve it and they display it when the visitor center reopens, it is on display and their exhibition hall until it's needed in which case they would remove it to make sure that it is ready for further service to our country and supporting those who we pay tribute to predict so they have a state ceremony and then they proceeded for the internment on november 11th, 1921 and if at the casket by horseback and takn over and they have a state funeral ceremony in the amphitheater which has been recently completed at this point it is presiding over by president

the halls of the capitol were almost completely full. and she, you know, she was wandering over there on her cell phone and i talked to her just for a brief moment. she turned and i asked her why she was here. and she was, she said, what she said is, you know, she was here to defend the constitution and to stand up her country because she loves america. i mean, there were 3 officers guarding the door. and that's where zachary alam came in. he was the agitator in this situation. he was punching right over officers' shoulders. that's when the officers moved to the right. that's when ashli babbitt she hopped up. but she had both of her hands. all her weight was forward coming through the window. and that's when the officer took, he took a step forward and what seemed to be, execute her. she was 5 foot 2, 115 pounds. she was unarmed. and she was a protester. and in this country, we don't shoot protesters. terrell roberts is an attorney for the babbitt family. this shooting would violate any department's policies, prohibiting the use of deadl

you did in fact march from the ellipse to the capitol. the subpoena has subpoenaed two people we haven't heard that much about, dustin stockton and jennifer lawrence, a couple heavily involved in stop the steal rallies and the bonnie and clyde of maga world. stockton's subpoena said he was in contact with trump and chief of staff mark meadows and he wanted to warn trump about the possible danger. you were reportedly concerned about plans by the stop the steal movement to organ unpermitted march that would reach the steps of the capitol as congress gathered to certify the election results. in a statement the couple said they are committed to transparency. finally the committee wants to hear from trump associate taylor butterwitch. according to his subpoena he offered an organization $200,000 from an undisclosed source to plan social media and radio advertisements for the stop the steal rally at the ellipse on january 6. roger stone and alex jones are notorious trolls and notorious figures. the extent of their cooperation in this investigat

go to the other side of the capitol. that's where trump's going to be. >> joining us now is democratic congresswoman zoe lofgren of california. she is the chair of the committee on house administration and a member of the select committee to investigate the january 6 attack on the u.s. capitol. congresswoman, thank you very much for joining us tonight. i want to begin with we ended there with alex jones. you have video of him saying to people at the capitol go over to the other side. that's where trump is coming. alex jones believed apparently what he was told by the white house, that donald trump was going to come up to the capitol to join that part of his then movable rally. >> well, yes. i mean, we want to learn a lot more about that. also, each one of the individuals who received a subpoena today apparently had a role in raising money for the rally on the 6th, and in some cases, so-called stop the steal rallies earlier in december. and so we want to follow the money, find out how this whole riot was planned and paid

stormed the capitol. sounding that alarm, donell harvin is the former chief of homeland security intelligence of the d.c. security and emergency managements agency. he joins me now. thank you so much. will you just describe what your role was? what your job was to be doing in the run up to january 6th that led you to be looking at this activity, and getting nervous about it? >> well, thank you, chris. me and my team are responsible for collecting, disseminating and analyzing threat information that could impact the operations or harm anybody that comes into the district of columbia. so we have responsibilities to share that information with all of our federal, local, and state partners. >> and what were you seeing that was so alarming to you? >> we had seen a lot of activity in october and november with a lot of the first amendment protected activities that were going on around election. what we saw leading up to january 6th was something that we had never seen before, and my staff were alarmed. particula

capitol. here's kyle cheney at politico.com today on what the man told police investigators he intended to do with that gun at the capitol on january 6th. "an indiana man charged with ol6 carrying a loaded firearm into the capitol on january 6th told investigators that if he had found speaker nancy pelosi, ea quote, you'd be here for another reason." this guy's essentially saying, hairks if i'd found nancy pelosi that day, you guys would be here for another reason now. meaning you'd be here to arrest me for killing her. this man "allegedly carried a taurus revolver which is capable of firing shotgun shells, two of of which were in the chamber along with three hollow point bullets." f it's a fine-shot revolver. apparently had two shotgun shells loaded and three hollow points. a capitol police sergeant obtained the weapon after allegedly fending off an assault from the man. "according to the charging documents filed in the case over the weekend, two capitol police investigators visited the man a

there was no fee found anywhere the speakers officer anywhere in the capitol. the only place they found species was enjo biden's pants at the vatican a couple weeks ago. i know you're taking that was all hey, i know it's ok. i want to go back. i want everyone to talk about ashley babbitt before we enter the program. go ahead, molly, can washington, will she get justice or? no, and i now i'm actually one of those. i really don't, you know, it's sad what eventually happened to ashley bad in on the court. and unlike the black lives matter, protests windows on people were actually assaulting police officers. no police officer, actually assaulted or killed any member of black lights matters. but those who attended the ride, but i don't think that ashley babbitt go get any justice. i actually think that the shooting itself was justified when you tried to break into an area where members of congress were, i really don't. it's a very sad thing that the very sad thing for her family, but at the end of the day, ashley babbitt put herself in that position and i don't know

the capitol was on lockdown, you give an account of what happened and this is a bit of the aftermath.ld you take us away? >> the following day, i felt sadness over what our country had gone through, embarrassment how we appeared in the eyes of the world, anger at the irresponsible actions of my colleagues who spread lies about the election for months and brought this on themselves information and fury toward president who instigated rebellion more than anything else, i was shaken by fear over what it meant for our future and recognition how long and difficult the road is ahead. donald trump or responsibly for the mayhem that took place at the capitol that afternoon and every day he would read in office he represented clear and present danger to our democracy whatoo took place inside a challenge to the electors was every bit as much an attack on our democracy. our constitutional order inspired by people wearing suits and ties" in the language of congressional debate but their purpose was no less. you can fortify the defenses of the capitol, reinforce the doors and put up fences but we

who gave the okay for them to allow them on their writers into the capitol. someone actually gave that order in we still do not know to this day who that person was. the fact is that there were failures on all sides from i live here in dc from our metropolitan police department. it from our mayor, from the national guard, the pentagon, and even on capitol hill. they were literally fairies, failures at all levels. and we saw with the numbers congressional here, he said, we've had the far purpose prior to the select committee that they, we pat, now i g reports coming out. just really given us information on how to prevent these type of things from happening. again, in a contrary to what robert said, these were literally bi partisan hearings that we had well before that you'd, our dad, nancy. pelosi jones are select committee. so we do have a lot of information about what occur the failures in what we can do to actually make sure these type of things don't happen again. so we don't have to speak about these things as if it didn't happen at all. these things actu

they beat a capitol police officer to death with a fire extinguisher. officer brian sicknick died after being hit in the head with a fire extinguisher during the fight. he died at the age of 42 after he was the bludgeoned. the fire extinguisher. a rioter hit officer sicknick in the head with a fire extinguisher. hit in the head with a fire extinguisher. bludgeoned with a fire extinguisher. there's just one problem with the story. it never happened. the new york times has quietly retracted its story about the death of capital police officer brian sicknick. there is no such thing. there was no fire extinguisher involved at all. the paper is back pedaling, admitting that it's possible he was never even hit at all. new york times retracted the story. they moved to a different story. khater is seen spraying bear spray into the face of officer bryan sicknick. it was bear spray. it was bear spray that killed officer sicknick. revolver news found the video shows no spray coming out of the container. it's a lie. sure enough, eventually, the media admits that rev

from the ellipse to the capitol on january 6th after that rally. the subpoena quotes also from jones' own remarks in december which he said, quote, finally trump has done the right thing. he is now calling on we the people to take action and show our numbers. the time for action is now. where were you when history called? roger stone's subpoena points out he promoted his appearance at the stop the steal rally and asked for donators to pay. while in d.c., he reporticedly used member of the oath keepers as security guards, several of whom were involved in the attack on the capitol and at least one of those people has been indicted. the stone subpoena points out that he was also invited to lead a march to the capitol on january 6th, but he ended up not going to the rally on january 6th and did not lead a march from the ellipse to the capitol that day. >> all right. they're expanding the net. widening the net. and i think what's interesting about this is yes, we recognize these big names, but these lesser known individuals, they're the ones we're told

capitol, january 6th."emarkable that if you take out who the threat was from and you make it al qaeda or isis and you read that center, in the 20 years since the country created fusion centers in response to the attacks of september 11th, for the first time since coast to coast the centers were blinkingroad. the hour, date, and location of concern was the same, 1:00 p.m. u.s. capitol, january 6th. and the threat was isis or al qaeda. what would have happened? >> well, it would have been such a more dramatic, forceful and i would think deafening response from the federal government. i mean, we have seen, you and i have focused on this a lot together, we have seen incredible walls of law enforcement response to any kind of foreign terror operation. but even domestic terror operations to some degree much more with foreign. the federal government has much greater tools for an isis or an al qaeda plot in place. but as you rightly point out, after 9/11 our country poured billions, billions of dollars, trillions o

capitol building.ry clearly sort of instigated this riot when he told attendees and protesters to march to the capitol. definitely, a long saga. with this issue with steve bannon, there is the question of how much did bannon know and how involved was he with the organizing of the insurrection. ros: every day on "outside source," we bring you the most important stories from around the world. in sudan, doctors say 14 people have been shot dead during protests against the military takeover. the flashpoint was the capital, khartoum. frontlines and the internet have been cut, leading to an attempt to cover up violence. the army is blocking bridges into and out of the city. these are the latest pictures we have from khartoum, taken hours before the protest. there is a heavy security presence on the streets. >> a few protesterhave been killed and dozens have been injured, according to medical sources. there are reports about live ammunition being used to disperse the crowds, but this has not been confirmed ye

, you know, my -- my heart really is with capitol police. i think like i had said earlier in some other interviews, i think any time you have something like this happen, it's an opportunity for learning. to make sure that these kinds of things don't happen again. and, you know, it wasn't just capitol police that dropped the ball, right? i mean, now, we are hearing that the fbi knew a lot more and i read in "the washington post" article, which i was unaware of actually, about a pig's head being left at nancy pelosi's sidewalk outside her home and mitch mcconnell's house being vandalized. i mean, these are some serious, serious things. so, i mean, i don't know what was going through their minds but hopefully this will never happen again because we can't have any more deaths or anything tragic like this happen. my other concern is the person who planted those pipe bombs is still not been found. >> yeah. >> that is scary to me. that's very scary. >> it's important you bring that up. you know, tonight, we have a special report on cnn trumping dem

we spent a lot of time together on capitol hill. we've spent a lot of late nights like this, i want to get your read on what exactly we've watched over the course of the last 12 or 13 hours and what it means for democrats as they try to move forward right now. >> well, to me, it looks like they're finally going to vote on the bipartisan infrastructure bill. frankly, they should have voted on this thing back in august. they probably would have had close to 80 house republican votes back then. but because they tied the infrastructure bill so closely to the reconciliation bill, they just lost republican votes in big numbers. they will probably get somewhere between 10 to 20 republican votes for this bill tonight. that was last week. who knows what the number is. i think it's really unfortunate, i thought the house democratic moderates were very much mistreated throughout this process. they had an agreement to vote on this bill by september 27th, in exchange for voting for a budget resolution. and the leadership and progressives basical

he never went to the capitol riots, they say he had no one wanted to take into the capitol riots, he didn't have any weapons is something that they really stress, he posted the video two days after the capitol riot. it's not the video about aoc and schumer, this one is just a more broad's killer senators slaughter them all. he talked about sprain bullets at congress members. so, yeah, he never actually made it down, but with the inauguration coming up on january 20th, i think there was a sense that this threat, even though they didn't know if he had weapons, they want to get it before anything worse happened. >> so the guy who couldn't get a ride down to washington on january six is now sentenced 18 months? >> yeah. and he already served ten, and while he was in jail at brooklyn's metropolitan detention center, he was a cell night of roberts sylvester kelly, who is awaiting trial for sex trafficking, and hunters actually musician himself, so he and r. kelly became kind of unlikely friends. at brooklyn federal jail. and his lawyer told me, hunts lawyer told me that when r. kelly sayin

it's essentially disorderly conduct in the capitol. so, the judge is trying to say, you know, this was very, very serious. as -- as far as questioning the former president's manhood, that is in a separate category. but i can see it was part of a larger picture. >> jeff, what did you hear in that? >> well, you know, perhaps judge gertner can correct me if i am wrong but federal judges are actually human beings. and i think you need to realize the context here. these judges, in the district court in washington, are hearing dozens of these cases. one after another. i mean, there are likely to be hundreds of cases, ultimately. and they're frustrated because they keep seeing all these mopes, to use a technical-legal term. you know, being brought in, pleading guilty. but they don't see a single person who has org -- who organized this rally, who conspired with these people -- none of them have been prosecuted. and it's frustrating to them because that's what they're used to seeing in federal court. they are used to seeing higher-level -- hig

, to deface the capitol, to instill violence. people trying to deny that this was a serious event. it's a message, no, it's not okay for this to happen in america. >> chansley became the very symbol of the insurrection. he got to the podium in the senate chamber just minutes after then-vice president mike pence vacated that spot. court documents say chansley left a note for pence. chansley's antics since the insurrection have also been controversial. he went on a hunger strike in jail until he was allowed to be served organic food behind bars. he asked for, and was granted, a transfer from one jail to another. his lawyer claimed he was suffering from mental-health vulnerabilities on the day of the attack. >> certainly, he changed completely from the day of january 6th and if you look at the video on how he acted on january 6th, this is a different person. >> reporter: chansley also angering judge lambert when he did an interview with 6 0 minutes plus and made a comment the judge later called out as a lie. >> police were waving pe

and earlier in the day, jones' mother made a lee from capitol. -- plea from the state capitol. thing. if you think julius is guilty, give him a fair trial! do it over again! do it right! >> prosecutors say jones and his defense teams are being dishonest in omitting key facts in the case. >>> and this morning, jury deliberations enter a third day in the homicide trial of kyle rittenhouse. his lawyers are asking for a mistrial again. at issue, the quality of drone video used in closing arguments. bradley blackburn is in new york with more on that. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. the defense says the version of the video that they received was low resolution, but their request for a mistrial may only matter if this jury comes back with a guilty verdict, and the wait for their decision has kenosha on edge. two people were arrested wednesday outside the court house in kenosha, wisconsin, as the community remains on edge while awaiting a verdict in kyle rittenhouse's homicide trial. >> i believe in what that kid did. i think they ought to give the kid a pat on the back, give

we are also covering what is happening in the prosecution of the people who attacked the capitol. and earlier today, a federal judge gave the longest a sentence, the longest sentence yet, to a defendant pleading guilty to attacking the capitol on january six. and the prosecutors are now asking for an even longer sentence for the person who they are calling, in their legal mumbles, quote, the public face of the capitol riot. that is jacob chansley, he is one of 120 defendants who have already pleaded guilty. a total of approximately 675 defendants have been charged in the attack on the capital. jacob chansley's lawyer, in a sentencing memo, told the judge, that he has quote mental health vulnerabilities. the lawyer asked the judge to quote, imposes sentence significantly below the range of sentencing recommended under the federal sentencing guidelines. jacob chansley's lawyer, some of his clients inability to distinguish fact from fiction. in his sentencing memo, to the judge, the lawyer actually quoted a line from eric roth's screenplay, forrest gump. in which, the title character
