Biden calls Jan. 6 one of the "darkest days in the history of our nation"
CNN
President-elect Joe Biden began his remarks Thursday before introducing members of his judiciary team by addressing the siege on Capitol Hill Wednesday, admonishing President Trump for inciting the violence and condemning the rioters.
"“It was not dissent, it was not disorder, it was not protest,” he said. “It was chaos. Don’t dare call them protesters. They were a riotous mob. Insurrectionists. Domestic terrorists.” "
Biden called yesterday one of the darkest days in the history of our nation and reiterated that it was an “unprecedented assault on our democracy.”
“I wish we could say we couldn’t see it coming. But that wasn’t true. We could see it coming," he said.
Biden said that he will not address questions regarding the invocation of the 25th Amendment against President Trump.
Biden had harsh words for Trump, condemning him for attacking the free press and independent judiciary and using tactics long-used by autocrats and dictators all over the world.
