Did and do not do as the events were unfolding here at the capitol. they talked about this 187 minutes of inaction from when those rioters first broke through into the capitol building and then that video statement that the president put out at one point. its not just what he didnt do during that time frame, but it was the type of activity that he was engaging in that the committee at this point believes represents a serious dereliction of duty. listen to what liz cheney, the vice chair of the c...

>> we dont know what trump said to certain people about why he wasnt doing it. there maybe other things that we learned from some of the reporting that has been done. in terms of what was happening with the trump brain trust and the various efforts they were looking the levers looking to pull. to prevent the vote from being certified. there could be more that comes out and im sure there will be. theres already so much that is in public view. again trump was making calls publicly. he said he won ...

I hope you can describe the parameters. its about half the documents to go towards you. the significance of having to look into what was going on in that white house leading up to january 6th. >> we will be getting the visitors logs, the call logs, the outtakes of the videos that he made as people were trying to talk him into asking the mob to keep the capital. notes, drafts of remarks, its all in the public record and we will get it all. it will help us put together the picture of what happens ...

They describe some of what they are seeking from the national archives. in mparticular, the -- the tape of trumps video statement. the unused tapes of trumps video statement where they were trying to get him to get the crowd to leave the capitol and calm down. um, you know, the idea -- the committee says -- the nation archives has that, they are seeking it. we now know as a result of the supreme court, they are likely to get it. i -- i think watching those tapes in which his aides are trying to ...

Man that many consider a national hero. >> reporter: yeah, you are absolutely right. even the president of serbia has made no secret about his support for novak djokovic. he said that hes proud to have advocated on his behalf with the australian authorities, but he has been relatively restrained in his criticism for the australian government, that is, until now. yesterday he put out a video statement and in it he explains that he felt compelled to speak out because the attacks on djokovic have r...

There is three hours, i think, that go by before the president releases a video statement in which he tells the rioters that he loved them and they have to leave. there is reporting indicating that there were multiple attempts -- there were multiple takes that were not on message enough to be released to the public. apparently, those are in the category of documents that be moved from the national archives into the custody of the committee? >> well, thats our request. and we, you know, if they e...

The only person who could persuade the president to act. in addition to that, the committee also wants to know about that filmed video statement that trump finally made and released about 4:20 that day. that was hours, though, after the capitol was breached. they want to hear from ivanka about why it took her father so long to respond. they want to get her response to public reports that she had been urging trump to ask the people to leave the capitol for two hours by the point he released that ...

Particular the pace of trumps video statement, the unused tapes of trumps video statement where they try to get him to get the crowd to leave the capitol and calm down, you know, the idea -- the committee says, the national archives has that and are seeking it. they are likely to get it. i think watching those tapes in which his aids are trying to get him to condemn what is going on and from all accounts, hes resisting, thats going to be politically damaging. there is no question about that. >> ...

Committee making no mention of the rally happening on the ellipse. before donald trump supporters made siege to the capitol. but her statement, she makes clear, she wasnt the part of it. that raises the question in my mind, why is she trying to distance herself from that rally? is it because of what president trump, former president trump said? that we are going to go and give them hell. and that you, we will not relent. because this election was stolen from us. all of the language that he used....

Election was stolen from us, all of the language he used that effectively incited the riot that unfolded later? so yes. you can certainly see how this committee is painting a full picture of what was happening in the white house at the time president trump was implored from white house staffers to do something. ivanka trump went in twice and it wasnt until 4:17, hours after the insurrection effectively ended, that president trump made the video statement on twitter. >> you both brought up an int...
