that. make no mistake, tonight s so-called hearing is not in good faith, it is not an honest probe into the security breakdown on that fateful day, and we will prove that to you tonight. instead, it is a made-for-tv smear campaign against president trump, featuring sliced and diced video that fits their predetermined political narrative from the very beginning, accompanied by the biggest trump haters on capitol hill. every single person on this committee is on record hating president trump, and they all voted to impeach him. now, people who support donald trump were not allowed to participate on this illegitimate, hyperpartisan committee, and sadly, those running the circus are not interested in what went wrong. they are not interested in what actually happened. they are purposely omitting what is critical information. we will tell you about tonight, and we will show you tonight, that will reveal where massive security failures did occur, and beyond that, show you the people
