Inside the U.S. Capitol at the height of the siege | Visual Forensics
At 2:12 p.m. on Jan. 6, supporters of President Trump began climbing through a window they had smashed on the northwest side of the U.S. Capitol. “Go! Go! Go!” someone shouted as the rioters, some in military gear, streamed in. It was the start of the most serious attack on the Capitol since the War of 1812. The mob coursed through the building, enraged that Congress was preparing to make Trump’s electoral defeat official. “Drag them out! … Hang them out!” rioters yelled at one point, as they gathered near the House chamber.
Officials in the House and Senate secured the doors of their respective chambers, but lawmakers were soon forced to retreat to undisclosed locations. Five people died on the grounds that day, including a Capitol police officer. In all, more than 50 officers were injured.
To reconstruct the pandemonium inside the Capitol, The Washington Post examined text messages, photos and hundreds of videos, some of which were exclusively obtained. By synchronizing the footage and locating some of the camera angles within a digital 3-D model of the building, The Post was able to map the rioters’ movements and assess how close they came to lawmakers - in some cases feet apart or separated only by a handful of vastly outnumbered police officers.

Let’s all say hi to the history students who will be watching this video in 10-20 years. Hi everyone!
This video will be studied as an excellent example of manipulation of the crowds.
Shameless plug to the college students of the future

Nothing angers me more than when people say "This is not us, this is not America". This is America, this is us. Pretty ugly isn't it.
This isn’t us. It’s a fringe mob made up of weekend warriors drunk on trump. It’s disgusting
No. This is the new america. And its pathetic. The people are weak, sensitive and uninformed. The storming of the capital was warranted. But it happened for ALL the wrong reasons. We are watching our 1st amendment disentagrate before our eyes. This is our fault. OUR fault for electing those responsible in to power
@@chadvinder520 the peoples vote have never mattered. The electoral college matters. And the people elect those senators in to power. We did nothing. We accepted all of this. And now we bear the fruits of our labor.
@@shilohivy4590 Uh no. It's 75+ million and growing US citizens unhappy with Washington DC corruption. Don't think for a second it just going away. It ain't.
These people and none of them ever take a step back to figure out what they're doing. Both parties need to split. Trump and his corruptor following need to go.
The fact that so many of the rioters filmed their own crimes says a lot about the intelligence brought to bear in the mob.
In a breach on US democracy like this, partisan opinion and affiliation becomes irrelevant. The truth is that lawmakers from both parties were threatened that day by radical rioters. This wasn't a protest for the good of the country, it was an insurrection that cost people their lives and almost toppled an institution. Whether you're Democrat or Republican, no one can deny the severity of what happened on January 6.
THE COMPLETELY INSANE THING IS THAT HIS CULT MEMBERS VEHEMENTLY DENY THE TRUTH.
But we can all ask why Capitol security was so inadequate, and why Trump's offer for national guard troops was declined 2 days prior. We can ask questions, can't we? Or no...?
@@Mark-kq6ch What evidence can be presented that Trump made such an offer? Even his own secretary of defense at the time doesn't back up his claim.

What also stuns me is the infantile understanding that these people seem to have of how government works.
These people? Pelosi, at the least a major orchestrator, knows damned well how it does work, and does not. She was NOT counting on her laptop coming into possession of the military. Someone has noted she looked as if she had a plastic bag over her head at one point. If so and she did that, no bloody wonder.
The constitution says that is the American people right and duty to overthrow this type of tyrannical government. Our government IS tyrannical and corrupt
This is why you shouldn’t fall asleep in your Civics/Government class people!
It's because they don't value the government and are lead to believe its a secret group that only exists to harm them. They're uneducated and mentally ill.
Government is fictional. Are you commenting on whats lied about with that/associated fiction?
Incredible how duped these people are/were. Their worship of the orange man is wild.
Well, that's the crazy thing. The election was fraudulent so the anger was justified. Trump pretty much won all the bellwethers yet somehow lost the election. It obviously stinks. 18 of 19 bellwether counties, Florida, Ohio, and Iowa (never has the loser won all 3 of those states), and voter enthusiasm higher than the challenger (very rare). Plus, republicans won 27 of 27 tossup races in the house. So yeah, just a few red flags.
“Go arrest the Vice President!” Like the cop was going to be like “Yes sir right away sir”
@@JohnDoe-qc5tq rioters*
@@JohnDoe-qc5tq that's not how justice works mate most of them committed crimes and were committing a crime trying to bring those people to "justice". A handful of those rioters were willing to go way beyond that and execute the vice president for treason. Chantings for the deaths of some of those politicians were heard, captured and published, wasn't most of them but still it was highly criminal doing what they just did and it even resulted in innocents deaths, no matter how righteous their motives were they lost their right to be heard a credibility. You shouldn't be apologetic about this. These people are lead by the ones who claim to want change and improvement of their country but not so deep down their lust for power and greediness are way worse than those in power. Hitler, Mussolini, Franco, Salazar, Maduro and many many others are a perfect example of that. My country 45 years ago was a fascist regime and a bit before that began we were an absolutist monarchy... I studied those events at length and when you do that you start to see the patterns, history does indeed repeat itself specially for those unaware of it and the levels of ignorance and arrogance in your country are an all time high...
@@JohnDoe-qc5tq "justice" isn't meted out by a mob of angry people... That's called a lynching. If you have a problem with your elected officials, you vote them out of office, you don't storm into their office with flexi-cuffs.
Lol
Robbie, kindly, sir, what rock are you living under? You do realize the reason the people were there was because they believed the election was stolen from them? They would like to take the normal path of voting out those they like, however, they do not believe that is an option anymore due to the election fraud precedent that they see was set.
Defending US interest around the world with the most powerful military in the world but unable to defend the building that is considered as the centre of US Democracy. What an irony.
It was deliberate. The intelligence was in. They made the request for heightened security. Someone or some folks didn't want it defended. The insurrection would have worked if it hadn't been for those Capitol Police standing their ground until help finally arrived. It's amazing that they managed to evacuate ALL of the lawmakers safely. There are some medals that need to be handed out there.
The most beautiful government building attacked by Americans plus how easy they got access.
It was deliberately left unguarded.
it's not much of a "seige", when they were let in. The doors were opened, the police that opened the door were giving high fives and taking pictures with the ones they let in.
Dictator's use armies to protect themselves, Democracies use armies to protect the nation.
People that say this was. peaceful protesting??? Should really take another good look!!! 🤦🤦🤦
To be fair it was more peaceful than the blm riots.
They want to deny it because Trump caused it.
I have bad eyesight and I could see it was an insurrection.
It was no different than dozens of other "peaceful protests" in 2020, just a different location and much less adequate security (for some reason).
How can people still say that this wasn’t an insurrection attempt?? 😳
When friend of mine said it wasn't an insurrection because they didn't have guns. Well some of them did others had other weapons and a mob itself is a threat. But he's one of those that sees what he wants to see and still thinks Trump is great. I remember him telling me after everything had settled down Trump would go back in well obviously that didn't happen.
Just a peaceful tourist visit. Repubs think we are so stupid.
For a country that spends more on Military and Defence then any other on the planet, it sure didn't take long to storm the capital building.
Lmao right? ISIS is like "Wait, it's that easy?!"
They were police not military, why do you think there are no riots at the Capitol now, cause the politicians are hiding behind the military.
It also didn't take long for them to flood it with national guard too.
Because they had help from the D.T. and his goons in congress.
i think its also cuz they cant use force. You didnt see a lot of punching or gas from the capitol police side. When they started using guns, gas and batons they scared the idiots away
When y’all kids rewatch this in 2032 for a history report, just remember us civil human beings hated 2020

Funny how so many of them were antifa and the time stamp shows they were breaking in while Trump was still talking. Funny how no one in the msm ever talks about REAL FACTS!! Funny how the guy who organized this break in John Sullivan a known antifa blm member was arrested and let go the next day and filmed the whole thing. Funny how no Democrat talks about that. And John is not white.
America: "Protesters have occupied the Capitol!" France: "First time?"
Lol. Viva la France!
all public servants involved in this failed to see what the protestors or whatever you want to call them were trying to do, if they wanted blood there would have been a far higher casualty toll. the infamous picture of the protestor with plastic restraint's is all the proof you need to know their intent, they wanted all representatives arrested and put to trial. they wanted their representatives to be put before a jury of their piers for potential crimes against the country. they wanted justice as Americans are thought it should be given. does this justify their actions no. but it is an answer we all deserve as both their constituent's and citizen's of a government for the people by the people. we are accusing our representatives of betraying their office, why does this not warrant the same level of attention from our legal system as an accused say drug dealer, why do our representatives not deserve to be put before their piers and tried for the crimes and wrongs they may or may not have done? would it not be true justice to listen too so many saying they have been wronged by these individuals, and then investigating and even charging these individual should abuses of power be found? this is the only way i see forward without pushing this country closer and closer to a very dark answer that is inevitable should our government remain as it is, rather than one for the people not the backers.

@Bruh Momenter dude this is different then BLM
@Bruh Momenter eh like a little more
@Bruh Momenter I did not know also in my dumbass brain it is because that’s kinda normal in America but if it’s the capital then that is a big problem
The fact that as they’re INSIDE the capitol building and police are talking calmly to them …..beyond me.
You shouldn't get a mob angry at you when you don't have the numbers. They were waiting for backup.

I havent watched yet but im assuming its safe to say the clips of police leading protesters through the building will be omitted
Explain?
That lone officer in riot gear at the door deserves more credit! /respect
The lone black cop who led the mob away from the Senate chamber knowing that angry white people would chase him deserves much more credit and respect than the lone white cop being ignored.
They both deserve credit. In all fairness the lone riot officer was overwhelmed, stood no chance in controlling the crowd but tried his best anyway. The police & politicians that were complicit in the attack deserve criticism. Also off-duty officers who joined the mob as well.
You would make it about race, and not their actions. Quit creating race wars out of thin air. He's just pointing out the fact that the "lone black cop" has become a celebrity and they didnt even mention the "lone white cop being ignored". Simply saying the guy deserves more credit. Not that he deserves more credit than anyone else. Not everything is a competition or needs an argument.

Amen. Eugene Goodman, to see this is to see a man responding to his calling. I was very moved by his dedication. God bless his family forever
As an old Brit, with no dog in the race, that officer's clear thinking saved the day - pushing the lead intruder just enough to ensure that he was followed. Tremendous. Just saying :)

I remember watching this live. I had been watching CSPAN all day and seeing it unfold in real time was crazy. Once I realized what was happening, I pulled up multiple news channels coverage of the rioters outside as well as a live stream from someone who was inside the capitol, I ran these side-by-side with CSPAN and it gave such a total and complete idea of what exactly was happening, all while seeing from multiple angles. It's oddly enough something I consider myself fortunate for having been able to see it happen live. such an important moment in our nations modern and overall history.
I remember catching it on my way home from work. I had to pull over and have a good cry before I could continue driving. Just a few years before, I had brought my kids on a school trip to DC. I started us out on the mall near the Washington Memorial. I gestured up and down the mall: “See all this? This is space that’s _deliberately left open_ for Americans to gather and express our opinion on our government!” I pointed at the Capitol: “See that? Lawmakers can’t avoid seeing us if we’re here protesting peacefully. And we’ve never ever abused this right!” That’s why I cried at on January 6, 2021.
@@irenafarm protesting peacefully doesnt involve smashing down windows and forcing your way into a building
Always thought this would be the most secure building in America. Why did it take so long for troops to be sent in?
Interesting question indeed. Where were those troops? I wonder if someone called them off....

Yeah he’s like I know I don’t want to be here either do you just go home
