President Biden to ABC's David Muir: Accountability needed for Jan. 6 insurrection 'no matter where it goes'

President Joe Biden sat down for an exclusive interview at the White House with ABC "World News Tonight" anchor David Muir.

President Joe Biden said Wednesday in an exclusive interview with ABC "World News Tonight" anchor David Muir that "accountability is necessary" for the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, "no matter where it goes."

"I think accountability is necessary," Biden told Muir during a sit-down interview at the White House.

"And that means if it goes right into the previous administration?" Muir pressed, referring to the administration of President Donald Trump, who was in office when his supporters launched a deadly attack on the Capitol.

"No matter where it goes," Biden said. "Those responsible should be held accountable."
