Global News published this video item, entitled “US Capitol riot: Pelosi says members of Congress who helped attack could be prosecuted | FULL” – below is their description.
US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi held a weekly news conference on Friday, saying a case was being made for trial days after outgoing President Donald Trump was impeached by the House of Representatives for a second time for “incitement of insurrection” following the attack at the Capitol last week.
Pelosi spoke about the unprecedented mobilization of security in Washington, DC ahead of president-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration, and praised the Capitol police and National Guard for their continued efforts in “protecting democracy.”
She said that if it was found that members of Congress were accomplices to the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, they could be prosecuted. Pelosi named retired Lt. General Russel Honoré to lead an immediate security review of the Jan. 6 riot.
Pelosi also spoke about the plans for vaccine distribution under the incoming administration after Biden announced a $1.9 trillion stimulus package proposal, which includes $415 billion to bolster the response to the coronavirus and the rollout of COVID-19 vaccines, some $1 trillion in direct relief to households, and roughly $440 billion for small businesses and communities particularly hard hit by the pandemic.
