Mounting evidence from the attack on the Capitol underscores that the riot was close to being far worse. MSNBC's Ari Melber explains how the MAGA rioters went after some of Trump's targets, like Speaker Pelosi, and asserts the violence that unfolded was "the direct consequence" of Trump's efforts to turn America "into an authoritarian nation that he would lead." (This interview is from MSNBC’s “The Beat with Ari Melber, a news show covering politics, law and culture airing nightly at 6pm ET on MSNBC. ). Aired on 01/12/2021.

MAGA Riot Exposed: New Video Shows Criminal Conspiracy At Capitol | The Beat With Ari Melber | MSNBC
Jan 20th can’t come soon enough
We can see an American vs American. US unrest in 2021-present until Trump families die old age.
@Floyd Thompson Not true. Fantasy over.
@California Breeze it’s not over . When 20 comes you will cry .
@rdohner1 Trump will stay in office. All these lies about him is to try and stop him from arrest all those of voter fraud.
@Floyd Thompson Not true. He’s G O N E on the 20th. Everyone knows this to be true. The worst president in the history of the United States of America will be out of office. The world is so looking forward to it.
Maybe there will be some kinda recovery programs available that you can get signed up for so you can reintegrate into society soon.
Lucky they hid the world woulda watched live executions
@Heather York Don’t forget that Trump himself started on the “voter fraud” stuff back in the 2016 Primaries and has been ramping it up ever since.
These are consequences to stealing election , why democrats think people are going to keep shut ,
Next election republicans are going to come back with vengeance in house ,senate and presidency .
@Rohit Mohite ……maybe in about 8 years. ..
Hahaha
@Floyd Thompson Only the weak-minded fools that have succumbed to Trump’s lies think there was voter fraud. 60 separate court cases that Trump’s team filed were dismissed with absolutely *no evidence* , even Giuliani admitted there was no fraud in court. So you keep the lie alive, refuse to trust the Trump-appointed judges that ruled against fraud, the Trump-appointed Supreme Court Justices that unanimously rebuked Trump’s claims. It must be some next-level coup if Democrats controlled all those people, as well as the thousands of poll workers, all the Republican-purchased machines across multiple states and then to *only* affect the Presidential vote. Seriously dude, you must be on some next-level drugs to think there is a steal going on. The truth of the matter is Trump is a sore loser and will do anything to hold onto power, including sedition. He must have some serious concerns about his future if he is prepared to go this far. One word comes to mind… desperation.
@Rohit Mohite I’m pretty sure we can all agree that the Republicans are spineless..after we all got to see the real truth in republican supporters..I’m pretty they’re won’t be another republican senate or president in the next 12 years 😂
trump is in belief that he can commit a crime today an pardon himself tomorrow
Why wouldn’t he? Look at what he’s gotten away with for the last four years. He has no reason to believe he will ever be held accountable. Over 350,000 Americans have died under his command and all he talks about, as usual, is how unfairly he’s been treated. That man has no soul.
On Jan 6th 2021…..
Trump told his supporters the election was stolen and asked for their support to help stop the certification of the Electoral College vote.
SOME of those very same supporters bolstered by his words murdered a policeman whilst attacking the Capitol to do what they believed he asked them to do.
On February the 5th 2020 at Donald J Trumps first impeachment trial fifty three G.O.P. Senators had the opportunity to stop the chaos and destruction of January 6th 2021.
Instead they chose their personal and party politics over the law and acquitted Trump without calling for witnesses and examining evidence.
One said that ” He had learnt his lesson.”
It appears to me the lesson taught was that he thinks he is immune from consequences by holding onto power, lying and gaslighting.
Will the senate betray America AGAIN?
IMPEACH (i.m.o. convict remove and charge with sedition/treason).
He can’t pardon himself for crimes in Georgia or New York.
@Jonathan S VERY WELL SAID.
In many legal circles it is understood that one cannot legally be a judge of oneself.
Unless you’re drunk on electric clown koolade.
Arrest Trump. Put him on trial. Let everybody see what he did and the lies he told.
Then start some kind of national cult-deprogramming operation.
@Floyd Thompson “first off we didn’t murder anyone” When you start with a lie, you’re only going down hill from there. The Police Office did NOT die of natural causes, he was murdered. “That is antifa that did that” “The reason they were there because of voter fraud.” Which one is it? Was it undercover spies or was it trump followers there because of “voter fraud”. You just can’t help yourself, but make a complete fool of yourself through the must ridiculous hypocritical logic.
@Chris of STARS No we need therapy, access to mental health counseling, and a mandatory requirement for the cult members to get the care they desperately need!
@Floyd Thompson “The dictator is our government that’s going against trump” So in your head, the people that are actually elected by the people are the dictators and the guy that was kicked out for someone else is not trying to be a dictator? At this point am not sure if you’re lying or just don’t understand what a dictator is?
That can only happen by draconian efforts on the part of the administration. Until the 1 percent are mostly disenfranchised this will continue to happen. They are invading capital hill .but for the wrong reasons. Everything is back to front . The mob should be after Trump’s blood . Only then would trump and his evil family be scared . The mob needs to be turned against trumpism .
@Joseph Jr McNamara yeah. The stupid hicks all need to be put down
Proof America needs better mental heath care plan.
And education.
@dwayne smith so well said, thank you.👍🏻
Privilege isn’t mental illness. It’s a serious character flaw.
Trump said it’s on the way for the past 4 years,we are still waiting on it🤣🤣
@ft.Jack&Jimmy As a 25 year educator I can say, based upon my experience working with students who are classified as “emotionally disturbed,” that you’ve got that backwards… mental health is a prerequisite that is necessary for education to work.
Trump told them he would be there, so they shouted his name as well
He is got a gun! He is got a gun!! And she still tried to force her way in, what kind of brainwashing n stupidity is that?
@Stephen Dale those young women that his the votes need to be highly commended. They were the real heroes for democracy.
@Floyd Thompson OK what is ”freedom” to you? Is it to feel entitled to take power by force, no matter what? Is that your definition of ”freedom”?
@Floyd Thompson The word for a group of people intimidating others with threats and violence for political reason is TERRORIST. Objectively review the actual evidence, then sue Trump for misleading you.
@Floyd Thompson ”Water proofs flat earth”??? 😂🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣 You seriously need to educate yourself a little bit. And speaking of water, and horizon, you don’t seem to know that already ancient Greeks noticed that looking at the horizon of the sea, the first thing you see of a ship is the mast. Hence they realised that the Earth must be spherical. That was quite some time ago – 2500 odd years.
Aristotle (384–322 B.C.) listed several other arguments for a spherical Earth: Earth casts a round shadow on the moon during a lunar eclipse, and different constellations (star formations) are visible at different latitudes.
They even calculated the circumference of the Earth. The method was invented by a guy named Eratosthenes, who was born around 276 B.C. He found a spot where the sun was right above at noon on the summer solstice, and then found that in another place the shadow of the sun was at a certain angle that was around 1/50 of a circle at that exact date and hour – the fact that in itself proves that the Earth is spherical. Measuring the distance between those places plus adding the finding of that angle, he could calculate the circumference. Eratosthenes’ method is even used by schoolchildren around the world today.
I’m also curious, what’s your ”truth” about the myriads of space photos of spherical Earth – not to talk about other planets? And what on earth is your ”hot spot on clouds”?
@Floyd Thompson of course she is a traitor. She is no robot but a thinking being. She had access to the internet , if she wanted she could have found out all the lies yet she thought, yeah I can go and invade the capitol with no consequences, I can even climb through a door with a gun pointed at me with no consequences.
Yes by all means hold all those inciting the terrorists accountable but that does not excuse her or absolve her at all.
Haven’t seen any bozos using that MAGA hat around these last few days. I guess they are hiding.
@Casey Underwood sad
@Casey Underwood You are not alone. Be smart and stay safe. Peace.
@BeachBum when all you see all day everyday is trump flags and mask (what few wear mask), it makes you think is there any sane people left. It really bothers me that a lot of these people are people I know have known for years and I just wonder if they always been this dumb politically or has Trump somehow brainwashed them with subliminal messages that just didn’t work on me or are they that gullible to fall for insane lies that he tells.
@Casey Underwood It’s a cult. He’s been repeating lies to them for the last five years to control them and distort their perception of reality. Republicans in Congress still refuse to hold him accountable for this armed terrorist attack against the United States government to disrupt the peaceful transition of power. They all need to go when he goes.
Bruh. Worst part, I live in sc. I see them all over.
We have Adolf in control for another 7 days, arrest him or give him the death penalty
Lmfao ya right
no but in 7 days your gonna have an Adolf coming in to actually take over
@Denenterprieses or whats left of it LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!!
I think you’re going overboard a bit
Foh yes
https://youtu.be/3sL2x8NPyb8
oh good
ARREST DON JR. ARREST RUDY GIULIANI…… NOW. PLEASE
Eric if they arrest them NO TRUMP and PENCE have the power to pardon them they’re not going to arrest anyone until after the 20th of January and I can understand why. THEY’RE NOT GOING TO DO ALL THAT HARD WORK FOR THEM TO GET OFF.
Pence should be impeached for deriliction of duty!!!!!!
Don Jr is now under criminal investigation in District of Columbia.
Lol. They look so dangerous and violent. The dem party is nazi no doubt. Just like the reichstag fire. Hows it feel to be a nazi? To be so far mentally gone you have let yourselves become such.
Yes, we at Antifa and BLM are committed to getting rid of all Trumpsters. If we’re going to get the “Great Reset” in process, we must eliminate the dissenters….
Irony is the fact that if they’re convicted of a felony (not hard if the yahoos live steamed their crimes) that they’re going to lose the right to vote and own a firearm. Maroons, all of them. 😄
Not a Bugs Bunny among them.
omg I love that hahahahaha
Bahahahaha good point,love it
MAGA should be classified as a terrorist organization, i think it would be hilarious if none of them can own a firearm again.
I don’t think I could face the person who helped create this after hearing people wanting to hang me!
I have no idea his motivations, trump set him up as the target to save his own tush.
That’s because you have a spine like most men, which is quite unlike Pence.
Pence is spineless.He just goes along with the crazy. He is just a quiet type nut.
Goh yes
https://youtu.be/3sL2x8NPyb8
oh good
Pence seems to be an moron,I guess !
why is this even a debate???? remove trump now
DONT UNDERSTAND.THE MORON SAYING IS IN DENAL AGAIN.
Because America’s constitution is set up to prevent both rule by King and rules by mop
Toh yes
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
oh good
because you cannot reason with trumpoids, no matter how much evidence you put in front of them, no matter how much of his ravings are debunked.
He’ll gonna leave soon
Trump is another Jim Jones.
Toh yes
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
oh good
At least Jim supplied beverages.
I’m happy to provide the Kool-Aid.
or like pretty much any other cult leader you can name. They all use the same playbook.
Yup
Isn’t it ironic that the people who filmed their crimes, while threatening journalists, and think the MSM is the enemy of the people, are being observed by everyone on the MSM?
You just have to love the irony.
@Terry McLoughlin And the Trumpian tears don’t forget those.
Toh yes
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
oh good
And all the while Trump watched on TV and REFUSED to call the national guard.
If trump goes down so should fox divisive news, Hannity, Tucker and the rest of the gang.
The Federal Communications Commission is in charge of broadcasting. They could reinstate the Fairness Doctrine, which requires balanced coverage of political candidates. No more one sided arguments. Ask your congressional representative to ask the FCC to look into organizations which carry lies to be held accountable. Back in the day, broadcasters who broadcast lies WERE REQUIRED to broadcast a retraction. We need to do that again, not in some late night hour, but by Hannity, Ingraham, Carlson after telling the lies.
Right. Time to get rid of the root of the problem.
Many corporations have stopped giving campaign money, and some have asked for their money to be returned from congress people and senators who enabled trump They should stop advertising on his most vocal enabler Faux News.
@Natalya Woop thank you for your response.
@Linda g thank you for your response.
Traitors.
Every last one of those insurrectionists are traitors, if they know it or not.
Every drop of blood is on trump’s tiny hands.
Start calling them what they are, Terrorists. Rioters is down playing them
