i think, i didn t care that they have weapons. they re not here to hurt me. i remember him saying to the effect of, mark needs to do something more, literally calling the vice president and mark responded something to the effect of, you heard, he doesn t think they re doing anything wrong. the stunning details of an out of touch president, who wanted to join the mob. the president said something to the effect of, i am the effing think president, take me up to the capitol now. the president reached up towards the front of the vehicle to grab at the steering wheel. mr. engel grabbed his arm, and said, sir, you need to take your hand off the steering wheel. we are going back to the west wing. we re not going to the capitol. the president of the united states, his chief of staff, his closest advisers, preparing for the violence, and then, trying to save themselves. i recall hearing the word, oath keepers. and hearing the word, proud boys, closer to the plan of the janua
one of his closest people essentially ended up, perhaps without realizing it, leading an armed march against the kremlin. he might have thought he was going against the russian military but he kept going before changing his mind and it will of course also remind people, too, that putin has potentially, if indeed it turns out that prigozhin here was somehow killed, possibly chosen the ultimate sanction against someone in his inner circle. all of those are questions to answer but it s a moment of weakness that putin had but one that should be memorable of the chaos surrounding the kremlin s inner circle over the past weeks. you re raising such important questions there, about what we know for sure here. we know he was on the manifest.
so, here we are, june 28th. 2022, it s a sad day for the united states. no matter what happens from here, because today is the day that there is, for the first time, public under oath evidence from a trump loyalist linking him to the armed violence of the sixth. as we have all just said here, eyewitness testimony, let the armed people in. so, he knew they were armed, why? because they were targeting other politicians, not weapons for self-defense, even with the ordinances of the city. they were targeting other people, that is the criminal intent to hurt others. he intended to join what he knew to be an armed march at the capitol.

More than a week after the Jan. 6 storming of Capitol Hill by a mob determined to prevent the certification of US President-elect Joe Biden, law enforcement agencies remain in a heightened state of alert for potentially deadly confrontations involving extremist supporters of President Donald Trump as Biden’s inauguration approaches next Wednesday.
Among US Jewish groups and organizations, there is a natural sense of disquiet over what the coming week may hold, given the presence of white supremacist and other far right elements during the Capitol riot, and the widely-publicized call for protests in advance of the inauguration in all 50 state capitols.
