Former US President Donald Trump organized the Capitol riots last year in a “coup attempt,” a congressional inquiry said.

Republican Vice President Liz Cheney said the attack “set it on fire.” Democrat Benny Thompson said the disturbances were a threat to American democracy.

On January 6, 2021, Trump supporters rallied in Congress to confirm Joe Biden’s election victory. After nearly a year of investigations, a Democratic-led House selection committee was opened Thursday night with excerpts from President Trump’s interviews with relatives.

Time is running out to reach America’s many evening viewers. Evidence has surfaced that former US Attorney General Bill Barr has repeatedly told the former president that he has lost the election and that the allegations of fraud are false.

“I can’t live in a world where the current government is in power based on allegations of electoral fraud,” he said. The hearing also included a transcript of the testimony of Ivanka Trump, the daughter of the former president. He said he “accepted” Barr’s father’s denial of the murder theory.

She shouted in a committee meeting room after Cheney told Trump that the rebels were singing that Vice President Mike Pence would be hanged for refusing to block election results. You deserve it.” On Thursday night, the first of six hearings scheduled for this month, Trump denied that it was a “political lie” before the Chamber of Commerce began an investigation.

The former president has stated that he will run in the 2024 White House elections. He continues the baseless allegation that the last election was rigged by widespread voter fraud.

The congressional committee is headed by a Democrat who formed the panel after Republicans blocked a completely independent inquiry. Only two Republican lawmakers, Adam Kinsinger and Liz Cheney, who are staunch opponents of Trump, join.

The purpose of the committee is to detail the “multi-layered coordinated effort” to “deny” the results of the 2020 presidential election, as well as the January 6 riots. Lawmakers are preparing a report and plan to hold a new hearing in September to explain the results and make recommendations for reforming America’s electoral process.

The President of the Commission and the Mississippi State Assembly, Mr. Thompson said: “January 6 was the culmination of a coup attempt, and one writer said shortly after January. “The violence is not accidental. That was Trump’s last half. ”

Cheney, vice chairman of the committee and a member of the Wyoming House of Representatives, said: “President Trump has gathered the crowd, gathered the crowd and ignited the flames of this attack.”

The unprecedented parliamentary hearing on the attack on the National Assembly building lasted more than two hours and was inevitably mixed.

The video evidence of the events of January 6 and the dramatic testimony of Officer Caroline Edwards were strong memories of the pain and suffering of that day. Liz Cheney’s extended statement, which put her career to the test against the former president, was full of accusations and accusations, but too thick.

Americans who gathered in court instead of Thursday night’s entertainment may not have received the well-packaged product they were promised. However, if we had forgotten the January 6 situation of despair and drama, it was enough.

But what they will do with these memories remains to be seen. Caroline Edwards, the first police officer injured in the attack, said she was called a “traitor” and a “dog” before the rebels eliminated her.

He later described a meeting with “pale ghost” officer Brian Siknik in the middle of a fight that killed him after two blows. “I’m soaked in people’s blood,” Edwards told lawmakers. “It was a bloodbath. It was chaos. ”

“As a police officer and a law enforcement officer, I never dreamed I would be in the middle of a fight,” he said.

British documentary filmmaker Nick Quested also testified, following the far-right Proud Boys on the day of the attack. He said he was surprised by the anger and violence of the angry “insurgents”.

On the day of the US Capitol riots, four people were killed: an unarmed woman was shot dead by police and the rest died of natural causes. More than 100 police officers were injured. Four other officers later committed suicide. Republicans saw the polls as a ploy to distance Americans from the political crisis Democrats face five months before the US by-elections.

Exit polls suggest Democrats could control the House and Senate when they vote in November. We’ve seen Democrat Joe Biden’s approval rating drop below that of Trump, while Americans are struggling with rising inflation, rising gas prices and the baby food crisis.

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, a Republican who initially criticized Trump after the Capitol riots but later changed his voice, called the commission a “smokescreen” for Democrats to change voting laws. After the riots, Democrats in the House of Representatives ousted Trump just a week before he became president. He was accused of demanding a revolt, but was acquitted in the Senate.
