Anderson Cooper 360

“We’re in lockdown”: New footage shows congressional leaders hastily evacuated from U.S. Capitol during January 6 insurrection

Listen Later

New video obtained exclusively by CNN shows how Congressional leaders were forced to flee the U.S. Capitol and moved to a secure location on January 6, 2021 where they frantically coordinated with then-Vice President Pence and Trump cabinet members to stop the rioters and finish certifying the election. All this footage was captured by Alexandra Pelosi, a documentary filmmaker and daughter of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, while she was filming what she thought would be a peaceful transfer of power. Associate Editor for the Washington Post Bob Woodward and legendary journalist Carl Bernstein join AC360 to react to the never-before-seen video from one of the darkest days in American history.

Plus, Democratic Rep. Jason Crow was a witness to the violence that day as he hid inside the House gallery while the mob was outside, trying to break down the doors. He tells Anderson Cooper what was going through his mind while watching the video.
