"THE 11TH HOUR" WITH BRIAN
WILLIAMS STARTS NOW.
>>> WELL, GOOD EVENING ONCE
AGAIN.
DAY 1,455 OF THE TRUMP
ADMINISTRATION, 7 DAYS UNTIL THE
INAUGURATION OF JOE BIDEN AS OUR
46th PRESIDENT.
IT’S NOW BEEN EXACTLY ONE WEEK
SINCE INSURRECTIONESTS, AMERICAN
CITIZENS LOOTED AND DESECRATED
OUR CAPITOL.
THIS DARK DAY IN MODERN AMERICAN
HISTORY NOW TAKES ITS PLACE
AMONG ALL THE OTHER DARK DAYS WE
HAVE WITNESSED OVER THESE PAST
FOUR YEARS.
THIS PRESIDENT WILL NOW LEAVE
OFFICE HAVING LOST THE HOUSE,
SENATE AND WHITE HOUSE, HAVING
LOST RE-ELECTION, HAVING LOST
THE POPULAR VOTE TWICE.
AS OF TODAY AND AS CHILDREN WILL
BE TAUGHT IN SCHOOLS FOR THE
REST OF OUR DAYS, DONALD JOHN
TRUMP OF QUEENS, NEW YORK, NOW
BECOMES THE FIRST PRESIDENT IN
AMERICAN HISTORY TO BE IMPEACHED
TWICE.
THE MAN WHO WARNED US WE WOULD
GET TIRED OF WINNING HAS NOW
LOST EVERYTHING.
HIS PLACE IN HISTORY HAS NOW
BEEN CEMENTED.
THE MAN WHO WE HEARD ON TAPE
TRYING TO RIG THE OUTKMLCOME OF
ELECTION HE LOST, A MAN WHOSE
MALFEASANCE, MALPRACTICE AND
ENABLERS WILL FOREVER BE LINKED
WITH AN AMERICAN DEATH TOLL NOW
APPROACHING 400,000 SOULS.
TRUMP WILL NOW BE TRIED AS AN
EX-PRESIDENT, A REAL GUT CHECK
OF THE GUTLESS, THE ULTIMATE
TEST OF THE REPUBLICANS WHO SOLD
OUT THEIR NAMES AND OFFICES TO
BECOME THE PARTY OF DONALD
TRUMP.
BECAUSE OF THE VIOLENCE THE
PRESIDENT INCITED THERE ARE
TROOPS QUARTERED INSIDE OUR U.S.
CAPITOL FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE
THE CIVIL WAR.
THAT’S HOW REAL THE THREAT IS
FROM WEAPONIZED COMPONENTS OF
THE MILLIONS OF AMERICANS WHO
HAVE BEEN LIED TO FOR YEARS BY A
MAN NOW A WEEK AWAY FROM LEAVING
OFFICE AT LONG LAST.
HERE NOW A REMINDER OF WHAT
TRUMP SUPPORTERS HEARD JUST ONE
WEEK AGO TODAY.
>> THEY RIGGED AN ELECTION.
THEY RIGGED IT LIKE THEY’VE
NEVER RIGGED AN ELECTION BEFORE.
WE WILL NOT LET THEM SILENCE
YOUR VOICES.
WE’RE NOT GOING TO LET IT
HAPPEN.
NOT GOING TO LET IT HAPPEN.
>> NOW IT’S UP TO CONGRESS TO
CONFRONT THIS EGREGIOUS ASSAULT
ON OUR DEMOCRACY.
AND AFTER THIS WE’RE GOING TO
WALK DOWN AND I’LL BE THERE WITH
YOU.
WE’RE GOING TO WALK DOWN --
WE’RE GOING TO WALK DOWN ANYONE
YOU WANT BUT I THINK RIGHT HERE,
WE’RE GOING TO WALK DOWN TO THE
CAPITOL.
WE FIGHT.
WE FIGHT LIKE HELL.
IF YOU DON’T FIGHT LIKE HELL,
YOU’RE NOT GOING TO HAVE A
COUNTRY ANYMORE.
>> THE HOUSE MOVED SWIFTLY AFTER
THAT, AND THIS TIME IT WAS A
BIPARTISAN REBUKE.
ALL 222 DEMOCRATS GETTING AN
ASSIST FROM TEN REPUBLICANS WHO
ACTUALLY CROSSED THE AISLE TO
VOTE TO IMPEACH TRUMP ON A
CHARGE OF INCITEMENT TO
INSURRECTION.
THE REST OF THE REPUBLICAN
CAUCUS REJECTED THE CHARGE WITH
A MIX OF OUTRAGE OVER THE
PROCESS, STRAIGHT UP WHAT
ABOUTISM AND APPEALS TO UNITY.
>> THERE’S NO WAY THIS HELPS THE
NATION DEAL WITH THE TRAGIC AND
TERRIBLE EVENTS OF LAST WEEK
THAT WE ALL CONDEMN.
>> MAKE NO MISTAKE, THE LEFT IN
AMERICA HAS INCITED FAR MORE
POLITICAL VIOLENCE THAN THE
RIGHT.
>> I CALL BULL CRAP WHEN I HEAR
THE DEMOCRATS DEMANDING UNITY.
SADLY, THEY ARE ONLY UNIFIED IN
HATE.
>> I OPPOSE THIS RUSHED
IMPEACHMENT BROUGHT FORWARD
WITHOUT A SINGLE HEARING.
IT WILL ONLY SERVE TO FURTHER
DIVIDE A NATION THAT IS CALLING
OUT FOR HEALING.
>> THEN THERE WAS THIS WAS FROM
THEIR REPUBLICAN LEADER, THE MAN
TRUMP HAS BEEN KNOWN TO REFER TO
AS MY KEVIN, WHO HAD DONE HIS
BEST TO AMPLIFY THE PRESIDENT’S
FALSE CLAIMS OF A STOLEN
ELECTION.
>> SOME SAY THE RIOTS WERE
CAUSED BY ANTIFA.
THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO EVIDENCE
OF THAT.
THE PRESIDENT BEARS
RESPONSIBILITY FOR WEDNESDAY’S
ATTACK ON CONGRESS BY MOB
RIOTERS.
>> AND HOUSE DEMOCRATS THEN
DROVE HOME TRUMP’S ROLE ON THAT
DAY A WEEK AGO AS THEY MADE THE
CASE FOR HIS SECOND IMPEACHMENT.
>> HE MUST GO.
HE IS A CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER
TO THE NATION THAT WE ALL LOVE.
>> DEFEND THIS CONSTITUTION FROM
ALL ENEMIES FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC
INCLUDING THE DONALD J. TRUMP.
>> THROUGHOUT WHITE SUPREMACY
STARTING WITH IMPEACHING THE
WHITE SUPREMACIST IN CHIEF.
