Despite the drama of which GOP lawmakers would serve on the January 6th House select committee, the group composed of seven Democrats and two Republicans appointed by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi went ahead with their first hearing today.
Lawmakers heard dramatic testimonies from police officers that described the day as a war, claiming they fought for their lives while severely outnumbered defending our nation's Capitol and protecting the lawmakers inside that day.
The officers testified that January 6th was unlike any protest they'd ever seen before, but before the testimonies even started, Day 1 opened with chilling new video giving more insight into what the rioters were planning on the Capitol grounds that day.
