“Chaos in the nation’s capital today as Trump supporters broke into the U.S. Capitol, smashing windows as they made their way inside during the Electoral College vote certification. Members of Congress were evacuated and the session halted as crowds occupied the building.”

ITV NEWS On Scene with the Insurgency.

This is the moment ITV News Washington Correspondent Robert Moore witnessed crowds of pro-Trump supporters storm the US Capitol building. Protests turned to riots after President Donald Trump urged his supporters march in Washington DC, telling them to “get rid of the weak Congress people” and saying, “get the weak ones get out; this is the time for strength.” But when our correspondent asked why protesters had stormed the building, one answered: “How would I know that?” Another said: “They work for us! They don’t get to steal it from us! They don’t get to tell us we didn’t see what we saw.” While a man screamed into the camera: “We are good people and respect the law. The government did this to us. We were normal, good, law-abiding citizens… and we want our country back!

“One of the most striking things about the storming of the US Capitol last week, was the surprisingly small number of police on hand to try to hold back thousands of pro-Trump supporters. Some turned their anger on that very thin blue line standing in their way. Officer Brian Sicknick was killed. Now others have described in chilling detail the threat they faced. One said as the mob wrestled with him, he heard someone say they should “kill him with his own gun”.“
“Newly released video from inside Congress as it was stormed by rioters shows a splinter group of the mob entering the Senate chamber itself and rifling through politicians’ desks and papers. With no senators or security left inside as the building was evacuated, pro-Trump supporters had free-reign of the chamber. It is not known if they were looking for specific information, but at the same time as talking in conspiratorial language they also appeared disorganised and even clueless, with one rioter asking: “Is this the Senate?” An ITV News teams was amongst the first to follow protesters into the building, but the footage was obtained by The New Yorker.”
