Video on January 6, 2021, hundreds of support from Donald Trump storm the Capitol in Washington to challenge the results of the presidential election. A commission of inquiry worked for almost a year to uncover the events of this deadly day.
On January 6, 2021, Donald Trump committed an “ultimate effort, a desperate attempt to stop the transition of power,” said Bennie Thompson, Democrat representative of Mississippi, and president of the commission of inquiry on this historic attack that the American capital knew. Thursday, June 9, in his introductory speech of presentation of the results of the investigation, he said that this day was “the culmination of a coup attempt” fomented by the 45 e president of the United States.
Five people died during this day, and 138 police officers were injured. For Caroline Edwards, policewoman at the Capitol, called to testify before the commission of inquiry – broadcast on all American televisions, except Fox News -, clashes with the crowd of Trumpists are summed up in two words: “Carnage” and “Chaos” . The events of the day go “beyond the training of any police officer”.
Five other public presentation sessions of the investigation carried out on the Capitol assault are planned. There will be revealed, among other things, the vain negotiations within the White House to dissuade Donald Trump to encourage his supporters to violence.
