from joaquin castro and david sicilian, both impeachment managers, focusing more on what trump was doing in the hours after the right -- riot had gotten underway. basically, making the point that trump did nothing to stop the protesters, despite seeing what was happening on tv, despite pleas from within the senate, from senators, asking him to do something, to stop what was happening. let's turn to our correspondent. actually, let's return back to the senate. >> we might as well clear -- >> -- >> pursuant to senate resolution 47, section four, presentations are not limited to the record provided in section one of that resolution. the senator from utah has appealed the ruling. is that correct? >> yes, i have. >> the yeas and mau at -- nays have been requested. >> what is the question? >> whether the ruling of the chair is sustained. >> what may i ask is the ruling of the chair? my point was not whether -- my point was to strike them because they were false. >> the question is whether the ruling of the chair, senate resolution 47 applies to the situation, is correct. >> the question is whe

let's take a listen to what representative joaquin castro had to say. >> think of the consequences toe, the economy, and human rights. to fail to convict a president of the united states who incited a deadly insurrection, who acted in concert with a violent mob, who interfered with a certification of the electoral college votes, who abdicated his duty as commander in chief, would be to forfeit the 4 of the example as a north star on freedom, democracy, human rights, and most of all on the rule of law. >> reporter: guys, the simple fact is that donald trump is no longer u.s. president and he is no longer a world leader, so one way to interpret the sound of silence that we're hearing from other world leaders is that perhaps they're just keen to move on and get on with president joe biden. to that end, prime minister boris johnson is hosting a virtual meeting on friday of g-7 world leaders. this is going to be president biden's first major multi-lateral meeting and it's a chance for him to connect with other world leaders and set the stage for how he intends to build international relati

congressman joaquin castro talked about the consequences of the attack for our national security, the reaction of other countries, and particularly other countries who hate us, the public gloating and exploitation of the attack by our enemies, countries like russia saying that the attack proves that democracy is over, because look at the smoking holt we've made of it here. but i think the most jarring argument today was the one we heard in different ways from multiple house managers, that there's really no reason to think the threat is over, particularly if senators vote to acquit the former president, and thereby, assure there are no consequences for him for having done this. then, of course, he'll try it again. i mean, why wouldn't he? the country is talking about this and trying to contend with this as an incredible tragedy, as a disaster of magnificent consequences for our country and for our democracy, including, as i said, for our standing in the world, but there's no sign that president trump sees it that way at all. there's no sign that he has any problem at all with the fact
