LIVE. FROM DOWN. LOCAL 4 NEWS. AT 11. STARTS NOW. TIME TO CAPITAL PREACHING THE CAPITAL,
SO YOU HAVE TO LEVEL DRAMATIC
TESTIMONY AS THE LONG AWAITED
PUBLIC HEARINGS FROM THE
COMMITTEE INVESTIGATING THE
CAPITAL INSURRECTION GETS
UNDERWAY. FOR 90 MINUTES. THE
COMMITTEE INVESTIGATING THE
JANUARY 16TH DIRECTION LAID OUT
THEIR CASE. THIS IS NOT A TRIAL,
BUT IT SURE FELT LIKE IT AT
TIMES WITH FORMER PRESIDENT
DONALD TRUMP AT THE CENTER OF IT
ALL. ISABELLE ROSE SOLACE IN
WASHINGTON TONIGHT WITH THE
CHILLING TESTIMONY. VICE CHAIR
LIZ CHENEY, A REPUBLICAN. HER
OPENING REMARKS WERE WRITTEN
MORE LIKE AN OPENING STATEMENT
FOR A COURT OF LAW, THOUGH THIS
IS NOT A TRIAL, CHENEY CLAIMED
THAT TRUMP HAD QUOTE A
SOPHISTICATED SEVEN POINT PLAN
TO OVERTURN THE ELECTION. SHE
ALSO CLAIMS THAT TRUMP SUMMONED
THE MOB, HER TONE, CALM AND
MEASURED PART OF THE NEW
EVIDENCE COMING INTO PLAY HERE
WITH TESTIMONY NEVER BEFORE SEEN
TESTIMONY. FROM THOSE IN TRUMP’S
INNER CIRCLE, INCLUDING HIS OWN
DAUGHTER, IVANKA TRUMP. WE SAW
THERE, UM, HER STATING, IN
CONTRAST TO HER FATHER, WHO
KEEPS PUSHING THIS NARRATIVE
THAT THE ELECTION WAS STOLEN
WITHOUT ANY EVIDENCE THAT SHE
BELIEVED AND ACCEPTED. THE
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE IS
DETERMINATION. THAT THERE WAS NO
FRAUD SUFFICIENT TO OVERTURN THE
ELECTION. WE ALSO HEARD FROM AT
LEAST FOUR TRUMP AIDES,
INCLUDING THE ATTORNEY GENERAL,
BILL BARR, WHO SAID THAT THEY
TOLD TRUMP HE LOST THE RE
ELECTION. PROBABLY ONE OF THE
MOST STUNNING POWERFUL PARTS OF
THIS HEARING THUS FAR WAS THAT
VIDEO SEGMENT THAT MONTAGE
SHOWING THE BEGINNING TO END OF
THE ATTACK ON THE CAPITAL FROM
THE PROUD BOYS, MARCHING THEM
BREACHING THE CAPITOL GROUNDS TO
STOP THE STEAL RALLY WHERE
PRESIDENT TRUMP ASKED PENCE NOT
TO CERTIFY THE ELECTION. TO
NEVER BEFORE SEEN VIDEO OF
PEOPLE RUSHING OUT OF HOUSE
MINORITY LEADER KEVIN MCCARTHY’S
OFFICE. RIOTERS READING TRUMP’S
TWEETS ACTIVELY INTO A MEGAPHONE
CHEERING ON THE CROWD CHANCE OF
HANK. CHANCE OF HANGING, MIKE
PENCE ALL OF THAT INCREDIBLY
IMPACTFUL IN THAT MOMENT, ALSO
THE INACTION. THE SUPPOSED AN
ACTION BY PRESIDENT TRUMP TOP U
S. GENERAL MARK MILLEY,
TESTIFYING. THAT TRUMP NEVER PUT
OUT THE ORDER FOR THE NATIONAL
GUARD TO GO OUT THERE AND PUT A
STOP TO THE CHAOS THAT IT WAS
PENCE AFTER MULTIPLE CALLS WHO
TOLD MARK MILLEY TO GO AHEAD,
SEND OUT THE NATIONAL GUARD. AND
PUT A STOP TO THE RIOT. AFTER
100 AND 87 MINUTES OF PUBLIC
SILENCE FROM PRESIDENT TRUMP PUT
OUT THAT VIDEO ASKING PEOPLE TO
GO HOME, ENDING THE VIDEO WITH
WE LOVE YOU THOSE 187 MINUTES.
THIS IS AT THE CORE BASIS OF
WHAT THIS COMMITTEE WILL BE
LOOKING AT. IN WASHINGTON, A
