January 6th

This was a harrowing, yet fantastic watch. I've watched many Jan 6th "documentaries" and they would play the same tired clips we've all seen over and over again. Jan 6th though, had never before seen footage and interviews from both unbiased Republican and Democrats who were inside the Capitol that day. This isn't "fake media", or Antifa. The footage doesn't lie. It's astonishing that there are people who use mental gymnastics to defend this.

Halfway through I thought they should definitely show this to older middle/highschool history class students. My son is only 10 but when he gets a couple years older, I absolutely will.

This is an excellent documentary of what happened on January 6th, the most shameful day in American history! As I watch, I can feel my anger rising, again. I am still outraged that my fellow Americans allowed themselves to fall for all the lies Trump, and FOX NEWS, had been spewing for over 3 years. And then, they actually took arms and attacked our Capitol Building at Trump's bidding! MY Capital Building! MY country!

As I hear them yelling "treason" I wonder if they even realize that THEY were committing treason at that very moment! I am going to watch this video each year to remind myself just how close we came to losing our country to Donald Trump, the worst president to ever hold the office.

May God continue to bless America, and save us from Trump, and his followers.

The only thing more disturbing than the disgraceful behavior of the bigots and criminals who shamed our country on that day is the willful ignorance, denial and absurdity of those who still insist there's nothing to see here.

We are truly living in bizarre times when this amount of direct, firsthand evidence is STILL not enough for those who wish to believe in an alternative reality. Watching this footage, one can only marvel at the mental gymnastics and cognitive dissonance required to twist this into "fake news" or "it's Pelosis fault". In decades to come our descendants will be appalled. One can only hope they at least find some wry humor in the ridiculousness of self-proclaimed "patriots" violently attacking the US Capitol.

Hard, but essential viewing. Ignore the ratings of the fascist bots. A modern history of political zombies whipped into a moronic frenzy by the Idiot in Chief, who, to this day, is astoundingly still not in jail. It is a miracle this did not end up in a bloodbath, like it so very nearly could have.

Show it in schools.

Excellent documentary chronicling the events of January 6. The use of personal interviews provides a compelling narrative of the intensity of the day. No documentary can do justice to describing the heroics of the capitol police or our congressional representatives or those standing up to the insurrection, but this documentary does a good job at pulling this together. The filmmakers did a fantastic job following the insurrectionists to help put the events of the day in a chronological order to provide a compelling historical perspective. This documentary is highly recommended for anyone interested in appreciating the events of this infamous day.
