28:14 [Reporter: Can you show us your hand? How did you get that on your hand?] [He shows the reporter the blood stains on the palm and fingers of his right hand.] Well, we had, uh, stormed into the chambers inside, and there was a young lady who rushed to the windows. A number of police and Secret Service were saying, "Get back, get down, get out of the way." She didn't heed the call, and as we kind of raced up to grab people and pull 'em back, they shot her in the neck, and she fell back on me and started to say she was fine, it's cool, and then she started kind of, like, moving weird and blood was coming out of her mouth and neck and nose, and I don't know if she's alive or dead any more.
28:43 [Reporter: How did you get back out of the building?] Riot, riot police came in and started ushering us out with their sticks.
28:49 [Reporter: Where did you enter the building and where did you exit?] Other side with the scaffolding. We tore through the scaffolding, through trash bags and tear gas, and pushed our way in through all the chambers, just trying to get into Congress or whoever we could get in to, and tell them that we need some kind of investigation in this, and what ends up happening is someone might've ended up dead. And that's not the kind of government we can have. People have to do something about it." "I'm not injured. It coulda been me, but she went in first. It was one of us. Just make sure people know, 'cause this [points to the Capitol building] cannot stand any more. This is wrong. They don't represent anyone: not Republican, Democrat, Independent, nobody. And now they'll kill people.
29:35 [Reporter: Who are you saying will kill people?] Who, I don't ... police, I dunno, just men and women, they don't care. I mean, they think we're a joke. $2,000 just was a joke to them.
29:45 You know those people filming us, laughing at us as we marched down the street? At the Department of Justice there was a man in the window laughing at us, filming us. And here ... It was a joke to them until we got inside, and then all of a sudden guns came out [voice wavers]. But, I mean, we're at a point now it can't be allowed to stand. We have to do something. People have to do something ... [raises his blood-stained right hand] ... because this could be you or your kid.
30:06 [Reporter: Thank you, Tom.]
1:15:14 [3 women sitting in front row of balcony, distanced. A couple of men are standing further away.]
A woman: “Everybody stay down. Get down.”
1:15:19-21 Another woman, quietly, “Oh, my God, they’re going to fire on us.”
[Outdoors, north side of Capitol building]
[Female news reporter for PBS NEWS HOUR is narrating with video, reporting on the Trump people as if they’re doing something really bad] A loud black woman’s voice pierces the air: “Is the mainstream media lying? Hunh? Are you lying?”
1:18:06-09 Loud black woman continues: “ … You lyin’? You lying about the violence [that’s not] happening?”
1:18:08 Reporter: “Again, sorry if there’s going to be any profanity [unintelligible].
Black woman: “You going to lie about it? You going to lie about it? You gonna lie?”
1:18:19-21 Reporter: We’re on the north side of the Capitol here, and sorry if there’s any profanity.”
[*IRRESPONSIBLE JOURNALISM:* The female reporter is obviously talking over the black woman to make it hard for listeners to hear what the black woman is saying, and the reporter, at the same time, is mischaracterizing the black woman’s words by suggesting she is using profanity.]
[Balcony scene again, but a longer clip]
1:18:50 [3 women sitting in front row of balcony, distanced. A couple of men are standing further away.]

1:19:19 [Cop appears in balcony on right.]
1:19:22 A woman: “What do you need?”
Second woman: “I’m good.”
First woman: “Are you OK?”
1:19:26 [A SOUND LIKE A SINGLE GUNSHOT.]
[The 3 women in the balcony seem oblivious to the noise.]
1:19:42 [Cut to outdoors: very calm]
1:21:24 Woman: “Kellyann? … [unintelligible]”
1:21:29 Woman: “Oh, my Go …” [no more sound]
[About a dozen riot police descend the Capitol steps & line up on the landing; a couple have large clear plastic shields; a few Trump supporters standing on the steps below them take pictures of the police]
