Because the natural check in the political sphere is congress, and half of it wont do anything about him. The retrumplicans are just go to go down. Thats how it is. They are going to ride him or die. And what we saw tonight is, you know, the working theory is he has been suppressed now. He is worried. Thats why he put out the right video. Then they kick him off twitter. He sneaks into other account and puts out some of the worst stuff saying they are coming after me. He is inciting again, this guy. Yeah. As you were saying to me, eawe were talking for a second, he is capable of coming back doing something worse. Absolutely. And thats the problem. They are not only concerned about what he has done, right . What he did this week inciting violence, but what he could do in the future. He could try to declare martial law. He doesnt really know hwhat tht means, but he could say it. And looks, if he keeps telling these people, look, listen, if you have people, okay, deranged enough, passionate enough, confused enough, okay, to do what they did to the u. S. Capitol thats a problem. One, you are not getting a second free pass. They do on the 17th or the 20th, the same members of Law Enforcement that they celebrate and they should, they are going to see the other side of that situation, and you will see what its like to get to the business end of those who are here to protect the law at any cost. Got to run. There is a lot of listen, we started with a phone call. Its not over. We started with a phone call. Wet a senate race. We had the president , an insurrection happening at the mine, its crazy. See you. Love you, dfrmts lemon. See you this weekend, watch some football together. Love you, too. So, as he said, this is cnn tonight. Im don lemon. What a week, what a week, what a week. You know what . At the end of this week, not over for me, maybe not over for you guys, as well. Donald trump is dealing with something that he has never, ever experienced before. You know what that is . Consequences for his actions. A second impeachment looming, allies abandoning him, social media cracking down on him, banning the president permanently from twitter, saying this about the inauguration could be intercepted as trump hinting that it would be a socalled safe target for violence because he wouldnt be attending. Offering a stark warning of people on its platform plotting a possible Second Attack against the capitol on january 17th. So tonight the president is in the white house. He is enraged. He is isolated. Increasingly a pariah, right . And he cannot tweet. What could go wrong . Heres the thing. He told an nbc town hall in october that he couldnt get the word out without twitter. I do a lot of retweets and, frankly, because the media is so fake and so corrupt, if i didnt have social media, i dont call it twitter, i call it social media, i wouldnt be able to get the word out. He got the word out about the rally he used to incite violence in the capitol perhaps. The headline here, people, i want you to listen to me, is this is happening because there is a real fear that what we saw on wednesday could happen again before the president s term is through. And we have details about what happened in the attack and who has been identified and who has been arrested. Tonight we are focusing on the effort to bring the rioters to justice and the effort to bring the president of the United States to justice as well. That effort is picking up speed tonight with multiple republicans saying they are considering supporting impeachment. Multiple republicans. Let me show you black and white. This was obtained by cnn, with one article of impeachment for incitement of insurrection. And thats exactly what happened in the u. S. Capitol. Insurrection is what happened. As the riot was literally raging, the president and Rudy Giuliani were trying to call senators not to find out if they were okay, but in a lastditch effort to get them to delay certification of the Electoral College votes. While the mob was raging. Dont let anybody tell you these were protesters because they were not protesters. They were rioters. Riters. Look at your screen. President elect joe biden saying this today. They are a bunch of thugs, insurrectionists, while supremacists, anti semites. I mean, come on. These shirts that they are wearing, these are a bunch of thugs. Remember why joe biden ran. He said it when he announced his campaign for president. The presidency he secured after the riot. He ran because of charlottesville and the president s disgusting claim that there were very fine people on both sides. What if the Republican Party had taken charlottesville seriously . What if when they came to that fork in the road, a fork in the road that led us to that infamous day on capitol hill, what if they had decided to repudiate the president and his very fine people . What if they had decided to do that and not his remark, but the very fine people as well . Cut off the hate and the lies at the root. But they didnt. They took the road that led us to where we ended up on wednesday, and now the gop is reaping the whirlwind. Lindsey graham, who after the attack on capitol hill finally broke with the president. All i can say is count me out. Enough is enough. Well, now confronted by an angry mob. Lindsey graham, you are a traitor to the country you know it was rigged you know it was rigged its going to be like this forever the rest of your life. So no matter what you think about lindsey graham, this is what happens when you think you can control a mob. When you think you can stoke their hate and anger and division for your own purposes. You can never control a mob. Now, they are not all the people who carried out torches in charlottesville, but we saw plenty of Confederate Flags waving in the crowd. And we heard illinois congresswoman mary miller quoting hitler. This is the battle. Hitler was right on one thing. He said whoever has the youth has the future. She apologized for referencing hitler today, said he is an evil dictator. Listen, when you have been on the job less than a week and you find yourself apologizing for saying hitler was right to an insurrectionist mob of people, some carrying Holocaust Denial shirts that storms the capitol and kills people, you might be doing it wrong. You cannot control people who were incited by the president and his supporters. Like congressman mo brooks, who stirred up the mob that stormed the very capitol where he serves. Today is the day american patriots start taking down names and kicking ass incitement of. Senator ben sasse saying this. He wanted chaos on television as this was unfolding on television. Donald trump was Walking Around the white house confused about why other people on his team werent as excited as he was, as you had rioters pushing against Capitol Police trying to get into the building. Hmm. He wanted chaos on television. He thought it was all a great show. A show that killed five people. Including a Capitol Police officer. A show that killed some of his own supporters. The family of one of those supporters Roseanne Boylan speaking out to fox in atlanta. And was really passionate about her beliefs, like a lot of people are. Never tried to be a political person, but its my own personal belief that the president s words incited a rigot that killd four of his biggest fans last night and we believe we should invoke the 25th amendment at this time. So thats where we are in terms of bringing the president to account. What about the insurrectionists . More rioters being identified and arrested just tonight. The founder of the hawaii chapter of the proud boys, remember when the president told hem to stand by, he entered the capitol during the riot. The man photographed sitting at Nancy Pelosis desk richard barnett, arrested and charged with three federal counts. A West Virginia republican state lawmaker Derrick Evans who posted and deleted a video of himself storming the capitol taken into custody and facing a criminal charge. And some people in the mob at the capitol said this about police. Cops are cool. They are like, hey, guys, have a good night. Its crazy. Its really weird. Some are on our side. There will be investigations of all of that. You can be sure of that. But the police were also under siege, too, from that mob. A mob that physically removed one officer after capturing him and locking him in an elevator during the riot. A mob that repeatedly stormed the capitol yelling, wheres pence . I guess tonight will tell you how he heard multiple people say they were going to get the Vice President and hang him. President trumps Vice President. A mob where people carried zipties. Plastic restraints. And invaded the chamber. What do you do with plastic restraints . Around the ankles . A mob that attacked the seat of our pants government. A mob incited by the president. The same one who had his twitter shut down days after he incited a riot in the u. S. Capitol, a possible second impeachment looming. Is this the breaking point for 12 days from Inauguration Day . Is it . I was told that on the way up here, way over here, that he indicated he wasnt going to show up at the inauguration. One of the few things he and i have ever agreed on. Its a good thing of him not showing up. Presidency is unraveling and his republican support is starting to crumble. Twitter permanently banning him over, quote, the risk of further incitement of violence. And the House Speaker nancy pelosi demanding trump resign immediately or democrats will move to peach himpeach him mond. Kaitlan collins. Good evening. Thanks for joining. Kaitlin, the president is in crisis. His twitter megaphone has been taken away premier league andpe face a second impeachment for inciting a insurrection. The wheels are in motion to hold the president accountable. Don, people around the president are stunned. This is the last two weeks of his presidency are looking like. And i think the twitter being suspended permanently was really kind of the topping of all of this and all of this week, white house officials have say they witnessed. The premier leagatient is upset brags about his way to reach these 80 million people, whether its he is criticizing the Vice President , pushing policies that he wants or what have you. Its still pretty stunning that this is the time that twitter has decided to go after the patient. Of course, it does come as people in the white house are kind of in disbelief that they are facing down a second impeachment now. It seems likely its going to go to the house, potentially not the senate given the condensed timeline. That is other people inside the white house are thstill weighin their resignations given the way the president responded wednesday. The west whipping is in turmoil a way it has not been in this presidency which is saying a lot. Everyone has been citing many people have been citing different standards for the president and for the average person on social media. Why now President Trump has been saying unhinged things on twitter for years. Why were his last two tweets the breaking point . Then he tried right away to get back on twitter again. Yeah, don, i mean, i think, you know, executives in Silicon Valley might have woken up on thursday morning and maybe they realized that they were culpable in this violence that we saw on the capitol on wednesday, that allowing conspiracy theories and hateful speech to fester on their platforms for years had a role to play in what we saw in the capitol on wednesday. And youre right. There is really thousands of tweets and posts on facebook that the companies could have taken action on in the past few years and twitter pointed to a pair of tweets that trump sent in the past 24 hours which they basically, which twitter basically is saying was signaling to his supporters that, you know, encouraging them to possibly commit more acts of violence. Well, one, the second tweet about not attending the inauguration specifically, twitter says it could be read as a dangerous cue to his supporters . Thats right. Twitter is saying about that tweet that it may also serve as encouragement to those potentially considering violent acts that the inauguration would be a safe target as he will not be attending, which is, you know, somewhat ironic given that joe biden doesnt want him at that inauguration. So again its really twitter reading the tea leaves here and picking and choosing, i guess. But we have seen them bend the rules for trump all these years, and they have decided to just sort of make up their own rules today. Also, as you mentioned, there is sort of an attempt by the Trump Campaign to allow the president to continue tweeting and twitter is suspending multiple accounts. Kaitlin, i know you cant look into the future, but you have tons of experience of what happens on the weekend. We have seen many, many tweets coming out from the president s twitter fingers over the weekend. What is in store . Do you have any idea what we can expect . Are you hearing any word from your sources . Its bizarre. To be a White House Reporter and know you are not going to be looking for the president s tweets is something that i know that my colleagues were its an unusual feeling to not be able to know what the president is thinking because that is the first place people look for his reaction. Its not his spokespeople. Its his twitter account. And so that is really a window into what he is thinking much he has always been incredibly honest on there, obviously. Its interesting because this is going to be a weekend where we are seeing the president so isolated, more than he has been in his presidency, you know, even when he was running, and access hollywood aftermath, charlottesville aftermath, helsinki aftermath, and now this. Its different, i think. Look how the president is responding with his own aides. He and the Vice President have not spoken since wednesday. The Vice President was at the white house today. They typically talk a few times a day on the phone at least, in person, and thats not happening. The president was supposed to go to camp david this weekend to get into a good head space for the last 12 days in office. They canceled that trip yesterday. He is not going there anymore. He is going to be at the white house. It remains to be seen. But several people i have spoken to, don, the last 24 hours they are kind of bracing themselves for what the next 12 days are going to look like because despite that video we got last night, the president has not changed his view of what happened on wednesday and seeing his supporters go and breach the capitol and what happened, you know, he viewed that not in a negative way. And they dont think that opinion has changed. So it really remains to be seen what he will say next. Kaitlin, donny, thank you so much. Thanks. So it took a deadly riot to get trump banned from twitter. People have been fighting against it for years, including my next gust who got fired for telling the truth. Former dhs cybersecurity official chris krebs, hes next. So it took a deadly riot to when you drive this smooth, you save with allstate. The future of Auto Insurance is here. Youve never been in better hands. Allstate. Click or call for a quote today. Youve never been in better hands. Its moving day. And are doing the heavy lifting, jess is busy moving her xfinity internet and tv services. It only takes about a minute. Wait, a minute . But what have you been doing for the last two hours . Delegating . Oh, good one. Move your Xfinity Services without breaking a sweat. Now thats simple, easy, awesome. Xfinity makes moving easy. Go online to transfer your services in about a minute. Get started today. I also need to warn you what you are about to see in this video is really disturbing, okay . So there is a warning, if you have kids. Fair warning. So these are rioters at an entrance on the west side of the capitol trying to force their way in. Look. Just go home, okay . You see me. Just go home. Go home i am not hurting you. So, obviously, thats new video. Oh, my gosh, into cnn. Did you see that officer . This is america. Or at least its part of who we are right now. We dont know the condition now of the officer being crushed in that doorway. We certainly hope that he is okay. Cnn reached out to the person who shot this video. He said that police eventually succeeded in rappelling rioters from entering the building from this spot. The exact location of this particular breach is unclear. But what is clear is that this isnt freedom of speech in motion. This is violence. That is a mob. That is domestic terrorism. That is insurrection. And reaction to the out going u. S. President inciting his supporters into a mob by lying to them, by telling them he won the election, that their rights were stolen from them. This is the cost of the president s lies. I saw that for the first time that youre seeing it. Perfect time to bring in christopher krebs, a partner of Krebs Stamos Group and former director of cybersecurity and infrastructure security agency. He was fired by trump via tweet after gdebunking the president election lies and affirming the 2020 election, that it was the most secure in history. Chris, good evening. What do you think of what you just saw . Don, i didnt see it. I dont have a return feed. I heard it. I think i saw a clip of that, you know. You said it, right. This might be, this might have taken place in america, but this is not an america that i recognize. This sort of full frontal assault on democracy. Call it what it is. This is insurrection. And it was stoked. It was provoked. It was directed by the president of the United States. And what kind of example are we setting to other countries and other Freedom Fighters around the world that are seeking to esca escape autocracy and dictatorship, that the beacon of democracy in the world is behaving like this . Again, its not an america i recognize. All i can think of as youre talking there is i hope that officer was okay. If you had seen the pain on his face, it was being just crus
