Jan. 6 takeaways: Subpoena for Trump, warnings for democracy

WASHINGTON, Oct 13 (Reuters) - U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and other top lawmakers urgently dialed military officials and White House staff seeking help during the Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the Capitol by Donald Trump supporters, video shown on Thursday revealed.

At what is likely its last hearing on the deadly attack, the House of Representatives Select Committee aired the previously unseen video that showed the fear gripping the Capitol as rioters stormed the building.

Video showed Pelosi and Schumer, top Senate Republican Mitch McConnell, and Republican Senator John Thune calling the Department of Defense asking for military backup to help clear the Capitol complex.

Pelosi and Schumer also called acting attorney general Jeffrey Rosen.

They were terrified. And trump didn't lift a finger to help, he was hoping his "proud boys" would find the Dems and take 'em out.
 
I really hope that Trump shows up, says something like "I'm here to answer your subpoena. I'm not going to answer a single goddamned question and now that I showed up as required, I'm leaving. Fuck your useless committee..."

That would make for must see TV!

I think you're correct. I think that's exactly what he might do, ignore his lawyers, show up, refuse to answer any direct questions and just scream at congress like the fat fucking evil little bitch he is.

It’s always good to see Trump take the Fifth Amendment.

The fact Trump abandoned the WSEs after 1/6 is very interesting to me. Will they meekly go to prison or will they seek revenge?
