The Democratic lawmaker who led the filing of the latest article of impeachment against President Trump spoke Sunday about the level of danger lawmakers faced from rioters during the Jan. 6 overtaking of the U.S. Capitol.

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) told Jake Tapper, host of CNN's "State of the Union," that rioters wanted to murder both Vice President Pence and Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calfi.), adding that lawmakers remember hearing chants of "Hang Mike Pence" from the invading rioters.

"You don't need a six-month investigation to figure out what happened," Raskin said of the Jan. 6 violence, adding, "There was an assassination party hunting for Nancy Pelosi."

"They built a gallows outside of the Capitol of the United States," Raskin said. "This was an attack on our country."

They were probably armed with staple removers and
permanent parkers?

Fried chicken legs and cold burritos?

Honestly the swill they are trying to stuff down our
throats gets more outrageous every day.

Led by Obama's OFA...

The BidenHarrius party looks just like the Obama party. Who will be running the country isn't much of a mystery. The Blame for losing the REPUBLIC lays squarely at the feet of those Republicans who did not support President Trump.

As truthful as the Tea Party spitting on John Lewis and other commies on there way to the Capitol years ago.

That gallows appeared to be about 4ft. high. Good luck with that.

What a bunch of propaganda lies. Reason should be used, not the imagination of mentally ill persons who spout off like they have an intelligent brain.

Let me tell you what is coming next. Martial Law under Biden. House to house searches, suspension of habeas corpus, and troops on the streets. The free world will look in awe as the US falls into total and complete Fascism under the Democrat dictatorship.

There is no threat to Pelosi. Never was and never will be.
