Documentary filmmaker Nick Quested followed the Proud Boys through Washington as members of the extremist group marched on the Capitol on Jan. 6 and clashed with police officers.

His firsthand, searing account of the riot will be a central piece of the House Jan. 6 select committee's prime-time hearing Thursday night, which will feature both his testimony and some of the never-before-seen footage of the Proud Boys and other rioters he turned over to investigators.

ABC News has exclusively obtained some of that extraordinary material, showing how a group of Trump supporters at a presidential rally transformed into an angry mob that broke into the Capitol to try to overturn the 2020 presidential election.

"I am not allowed to say what's going to happen today because everyone's just gonna have to watch for themselves. But it's gonna happen," one woman in the crowd told Quested ominously. "Something's gonna happen one way or another."

5. The internal politics of The proud boys gets complicated.

The internal politics of The proud boys gets complicated. As a white supremacist group, some of their own members consider their leader to be a 'negro'. They want to replace him with a white guy.

6. The response from the right: But, but, but...

In 2020 several U.S. cities were BURNED TO THE GROUND -- and the soil was salted to make sure nothing ever grows there again!

Seattle? Gone! Minneapolis? St. Paul? Gone! Gone! Portland? Gone!

All our people did was break a few windows and shit on the floor! I mean, sure, they WANTED to lynch people. But they didn't. So that doesn't count!

But what about those COMMUNISTS that turned Portland into a smoldering pile of ash?
