Democrats screened a harrowing 10-minute compilation of attacks on the US Capitol to open Donald Trump's second impeachment trial, airing inside the Senate chamber that was under assault just one month earlier.
The chamber's 100 senators watched from their desks as a montage of the 6 January insurrection followed Democratic impeachment manager Jamie Raskin's opening statement.
Democratic Senator Cory Booker of New Jersey placed his hands over his eyes during footage of a Capitol police officer firing through the doors of the House of Representatives as a mob pounded at the entrance, according to Politico reporter Andrew Desiderio.
Several senators rubbed their eyes as the video showed a mob crushing Washington DC police officer Daniel Hodges inside a doorway.

Goebbels would be proud. Supposed I edited video of rioting and super imposed Democrats talking about how this must continue? This isn’t evidence it is manipulation.

Capt Gregory Prickett - sort by of like all the ties Biden, his family and his Cabinet picks have with China? Do tell! Are you still pumping the Russian collusion BS? I am sorry but the Democrats are acting like Goebbels. Yesterday the presented a supposed phone call in which the Democrats presented words Republicans Senator Mike Lee never said. So the Democrats objected to Lee not allowing their lie to stand. What a pile of horse crap, well horse crap doesn’t work because horse crap can be useful for fertilizer!

LTC David Brown - David, I've never used the word collusion, because legally it doesn't mean anything. I've used the word conspiracy, and I stopped after the Mueller Report came out, saying that they didn't have anything to say about collusion, but that there was insufficient evidence to make a conspiracy case.

LTC David Brown - who is the Quisling? Anyone who wants to turn the country over to Trump, or who supported the insurrection at the Capitol.
