HAPPENED THAT DAY.
>> MICHAEL STEELE, WHAT IS
AMAZING IS THAT MITCH
McCONNELLS SORT OF LINE ISNT A
LINE THAT HE I IMAGINE BELIEVES.
THE IDEA THAT THE
INRECOLLECTIONISTS ONE AND DONE
IS LUDICROUS.
AFTER 9/11 FIGURING OUT WHY THEY
DIDNT SHARE INFORMATION IS THE
MISSION.
THAT WAS PART OF WHAT MADE SURE
THAT ONE WE WOULD NEVER FORGET
AND TWO THE ATTACKS OF 9/11
WOULD NEVER HAPPEN.
WHAT IS THE POLITICAL COVER IF
AS THE DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND
SECURITY HAS WARNED DOMESTIC
VIOLENT EXTREMISM IS AN ONGOING
THREAT AND PERSISTENT AND
GROWING RISK TO THE HOMELAND?
WHATS THE POLITICAL COVER IF
THERES ANOTHER SUCH ATTACK?
>> THERE IS NO POLITICAL KOCOVER
AND THE MISSION IS THE SAME AS
AFTER 9/11.
TO FIND OUT TRUTH AND THE EXPOSE
THE ELEMENTS AND THE PERSONNEL
THAT WERE INVOLVED AND THAT LED
UP TO THE EVENT THEN AND THIS
HERE
HORRIFIC EVENT THIS PAST
JANUARY.
FOR McCONNELL TO THE POINTS JUST
MADE IT IS ALL A POLITICAL
CALCULATION.
LOOKING AT THE MEMBERSHIP AND
FIGURES HOW MUCH COVER CAN I
GIVE THEM TO NAVIGATE THE SPACE?
HE IS RIGHT SAYING YOU READ THE
QUOTE THAT WE WANT TO SHOW THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE WHAT THIS
ADMINISTRATION IS DOING TO THE
COUNTRY.
BUT WHAT HES FAILING TO UNIS
WHAT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ALSO
GOING TO SEE IS WHAT THEY DID TO
THE COUNTRY.
AND THEYRE GOING TO CALCULATE
THAT, AS WELL, AND CALCULATE IF
IT SHOULD PLAY OUT THE WAY
EVERYONE SUSPECTS AND YOU STOOD
IN THE WAY OF DEVINING THE
TRUTH, TO HELP US HEAL AND
HELPING A GRIEVING MOTHER MOURN
HER SON THAT SHE HAS TO LEAVE
HER HOME.
THINK ABOUT THIS.
THIS MOM HAS TO LEAVE HER HOME
TO COME UP TO CAPITOL HILL TO
ASK THESE PEOPLE TO DO THE VERY
THING THEY HAVE BEEN ELECTED TO
DO.
AND THAT IS TO REPRESENT AND
PROTECT AND DEFEND THIS
CONSTITUTION, IN CONSTITUTIONAL
REPUBLIC.
HERES THIS MOM ON THE TAIL END
OF A COVID PANDEMIC HAVING TO
GET IN A CAR A GONE TO THAT
CAPITOL HILL TO DEAL WITH THESE
FOLKS.
TO ASK THESE INDIVIDUALS TO DO
THE BASIC RIGHT THING.
SHE IS NOT ASKING THEM TO FIND A
POTENTIAL OUTCOME.
SHE IS NOT ASKING THEM TO
DICTATE DIFFERENT TERMS.
SHE IS JUST ASKING THEM, COULD
YOU PLEASE FIND OUT WHY MY SON
DIED?
COULD YOU PLEASE FIND OUT WHO
WAS INVOLVED IN THE DEATH OF MY
SON?
COULD YOU PLEASE FIND OUT WHAT
WAS INVOLVED FOR ALL OF THESE
OFFICERS WHO PUT THEIR LIVES ON
THE LINE THAT DAY?
IT IS UNSIGHTLY, IT IS
UNSLIGHTLY TO HAVE REPUBLICANS
SAY I WONT MEET WITH HER AND
THEN TO SAY ILL MEET WITH HER
BUT VOTING AGAINST HER.
DAMN.
THATS -- THATS A PAIR I
HAVENT SEEN EVER IN POLITICS.
>> I DONT WANT TO MOVE ON FROM
THIS POINT BECAUSE IF THERES A
STAKEHOLDER SORT OF ABOVE ALL
OTHERS, FORGET ABOUT THE MEMBERS
THAT CROUCHED IN THE OFFICES AND
NOW DONT CARE AND THANK GOD
NOTHING HAPPENED.
IM GLAD THAT --
>> YEAH.
>> THEIR SAFETY SECURED BY THE
CAPITOL POLICE BUT THE CAPITOL
POLICE WERENT SAFE AND WERENT
SAFE BECAUSE DONALD TRUMP
INCITED A MOB TO GO DISRUPT THE
PEACEFUL TRANSFER OF POWER.
FOR THE LIFE OF ME I DONT
UNDERSTAND WHY THE CAPITOL
POLICE DONT WALK OUT TOMORROW,
MICHAEL STEELE.
>> YOU KNOW?
WITH THE SLAP IN THE FACE YOU
KIND OF SAY, DUDE, I HAD YOUR
BACK.
CAN YOU HAVE MINE FOR THE PERIOD
IT TAKES TO FIND OUT WHAT
HAPPENED?
YOU KNOW?
BUT THEY WONT.
AT THE END OF THE DAY THESE ARE
MEN AND WOMEN ABOUT SERVICE.
WHO PUT THEIR LIVE OUT THERE.
I KNEW THE CAPITOL POLICE SINCE
GROWING UP IN D.C. AND GONE
THROUGH HIGHS AND LOWS LIKE THE
COUNTRY AND STOOD FIRM AND NEVER
SHIRKED THE RESPONSIBILITY AND
WHAT OFFICER SICKNICKS MOM WAS
SAYING.
IM HERE FOR THE MEN AND WOMEN
WHO SERBED ON THAT DAY.
IM HERE FOR MY SON WHO LOST HIS
LIFE AND JUST ASKING THAT COULD
YOU AT LEAST HOLD A HEARING?
HOLD A DAMN HEARING!
JUST -- IT IS JUST -- MERNGAMERI
PAY ATTENTION TO WHATS
HAPPENING NOW AND AS YOU LOOK AT
THE ECONOMY AND AS YOU WEIGH
EVERYTHING ELSE, WEIGH THE SOUL
OF THE INDIVIDUALS WHO SAY NO TO
