VIDEO: From video footage to body cameras worn by the officers under siege, there is a comprehensive record of one of the worst attacks on democracy in U.S. history. AP compiled a short film capturing the key moments of the Jan. 6 insurrection.

WASHINGTON — The Jan. 6 riot was an insurrection with a 360-degree view.

Ample evidence has emerged over the last year of what happened at the U.S. Capitol. From television footage to cell phone videos to body cameras worn by the officers under siege, there is a remarkably comprehensive record of one of the worst attacks on democracy in U.S. history. The Associated Press compiled a short film of the day’s key moments to capture the record and rebut falsehoods that continue to spread about what happened.

The riot was preceded by the “Stop the Steal” rally near the White House featuring President Donald Trump. Before Trump’s remarks, a flag was seen flying in the crowd with the message, “When Tyranny Becomes Law Rebellion Becomes DUTY!” “And we fight,” Trump told the crowd. “We fight like hell. And if you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country anymore.”That rhetoric presaged an unthinkable episode of political violence that briefly disrupted America’s peaceful transfer of power.
