New footage at Trump impeachment trial shows how close the mob got to Pence, Congress and Staff
WASHINGTON – Vice President Mike Pence being hustled out of the Senate chamber as rioters approached. Rep. Dan Kildee telling fellow House members to remove their congressional pins so rioters wouldn't identify them. Ashli Babbit crumpling to the floor after being shot and killed.
In a series of harrowing video and audio clips capturing various vantage points of the Jan. 6 assault on the U.S. Capitol, House managers prosecuting former President Donald Trump at Wednesday's impeachment trial said the proof of Trump's guilt was in watching and listening.
"Anyone they got their hands on they would have killed," Stacey Plaskett, a Democratic delegate from the Virgin Islands and a House prosecutor, said as she showed some of the videos of the assault.
The dozens of clips, several from previously undisclosed security cameras, showed in vivid detail the violence police officers faced at the Capitol and just how close high-ranking U.S. officials and their staff were to coming face-to-face with the mob.
