Nancy Pelosi Calls Trump 'Domestic Enemy' In New Jan. 6 Footage
HuffPost
"There's a domestic enemy in the White House," she told staff at one point. "Let's not mince words about this."
New footage of the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol and its aftermath follows then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) as she’s evacuated from the building and grappling with how to respond.
The video was recorded by Pelosi’s daughter, Alexandra Pelosi, who filmed the footage while producing a documentary for HBO.
HBO turned the footage over to Congress this week in response to a Republican-led House investigation. The GOP committee is attempting to rebut the findings of an earlier ― and bipartisan ― committee that overwhelmingly found Trump responsible for that day’s failed coup.
The clips, obtained by CNN, show Pelosi fully understood the gravity of the moment as they evacuated, telling her staffers and security detail to “consider the worst.”
The speaker asked for regular updates about what was happening on the House floor, showing extreme frustration that the mob succeeded in delaying certification of the vote.
