Democratic Sen. Adam Schiff reflected on the memories of the insurrection at the Capitol four years ago while watching Congress certify President-elect Donald Trump's win on the House floor. Schiff, who was a member of the House during the riot on January 6, 2021, recalled the events vividly.
He described how he couldn't help but remember specific moments during the attack, such as where he was standing when it began, retrieving his gas mask, and hearing people shouting in the gallery. Schiff's firsthand experience during the insurrection has left a lasting impact on him.
As a member of the House committee that investigated the attack, Schiff expressed his astonishment at the prospect of Trump returning to the White House. Despite his concerns about the state of democracy, Schiff acknowledged that other pressing issues like the cost of living and food were prioritized by Americans during the election.
