SEAN HANNITY (HOST): Media mob all week, this week, will cover January 6th. This is the week, the one year anniversary of what happened on January 6th. We said it live that day on this program, we can't have any kind of rioting and we've got to protect our elected officials. We've been very consistent, just like we were consistent over the summer of July of 2020, when, over the summer of 2020, when we had, what? 574 riots. We had billions of dollars of property damage, arson, and looting. We had dozens of Americans killed, murdered. We had thousands of cops hurt, many of them badly.
And yet, there's no committee led by Liz Cheney and company and Nancy Pelosi. The one thing they won't ask in this committee -- and this is why I keep saying it's a phony committee, it's a rigged investigation with a predetermined outcome -- is because this is Liz Cheney's alliance -- unholy alliance with Nancy Pelosi and company, so that they can purge the Republican Party of Donald Trump and make sure Donald Trump never runs for president again.
I don't think it's going to work. Because if they really wanted to get to the root cause, you've got to ask some really tough questions. Donald Trump asked for the National Guard to be called up that day, knowing hundreds of thousands of people were going to march on the Capitol. He did that days before January 6th. The same with Mark Meadows, the same with the Capitol police chief. He asked six separate times for the National Guard. The person that would be in charge of that is the Sergeant of Arms, the Sergeant of Arms reports to Nancy Pelosi. Nancy Pelosi needs to be investigated and put under oath. Are they going to do that? No, that's not going to happen. It's pretty unbelievable. Just like they're not going to investigate the 574 riots over the summer.
