New video evidence presented in the impeachment trial of Donald Trump shows just how close rioters got to US politicians last month.
Democrats, led by House impeachment manager Stacey Plaskett, have begun formally making their case that Donald Trump should be convicted for inciting the US Capitol siege, a day after a divided Senate concluded his impeachment trial could proceed though he’s left office.
Nine Democratic House members acting as Trump’s prosecutors began the proceedings on Tuesday by airing a graphic video that interspersed excerpts of Trump’s speech with scenes from the attack, including clips of police officers under assault and a rioter fatally shot by authorities.
