This is a very sad day for america. And it was also very sad driving through washington, dc and seeing the filth and the decay and all of the broken buildings and walls and the graffiti. This is not the place that i left. Its a very sad thing to see it. When you look at whats happening, this is a persecution of a political opponent. This was never supposed to happen in america. This is the persecution of the person thats leading by very, very substantial numbers in the republican primary and leading biden by a lot. So, if you cant beat him, you persecute him or you prosecute him. We cant let this happen in america. Thank you very much.

There was an agreement between one or more persons to achieve the object of the conspiracy and that was set forth in the indictment. The government is really going to set forth a pretty narrow number of charges here and frankly, it would not be unexpected if they had a convention on some and not others conviction. It is frankly expected in these types of cases. The indictment in these types of cases. The indictment is in these types of cases. The indictment is also in these types of cases.

It should be the living commitment that we all have to make democracy work in the service of the common good. That is the constitution that comes out of the civil war and reconstruction. That is the constitution that we have been fighting for since then. And weve got to keep fighting for it.
