00:00Thank you Mr. Speaker. This week the person who occupied the White House for four years before
00:06President Biden returned to Washington for the first time since he left. Since that time he's
00:11been found guilty of sexual abuse with E. Jean Carroll and he's been found in defamation of
00:18E. Jean Carroll on two different occasions for nearly 100 million dollars. He's been found to
00:23be fraudulently projecting his income and liabilities in the his businesses in New York
00:29and state and to the tune of about 480 million dollars civil judgment.
00:34He's also been found guilty of a felony in New York state 34 times but also what he did before
00:41he left was he led an assault on this Capitol on this government. I was up there on the balcony
00:48when they were beating on the doors and we were told to get out for our lives and put on
00:52gas masks. Gunfire was in this room. Four officers were killed or died because of that insurrection
00:59against our government. Trump didn't come here to apologize to the Capitol Police which he should
01:04have put their lives on the line. It's unfortunate. I yield back the balance of my time.
