Hillary Clinton in January 6 Capitol Riot


On Homeland Security: January 6 insurrection at our capitol was a terrorist attack

Hillary Clinton has said that the US was still in a "real battle for our democracy" against pro-Trump forces on the far right. Clinton fended off suggestions that the world was now witnessing the twilight of US democracy, but said: "I do believe we are in a struggle for the future of our country."

Clinton was referring to a raft of state legislation promoted by Republicans aimed at restricting access to the ballot. "What is really, most concerning is that he continues to be destructive," she said. "The January 6 insurrection at our capitol was a terrorist attack," Clinton added, noting the parallel with the 9/11 attacks. "We are now much more worried about internal threats, and there are some who say you can't equate them, having planes flown into the World Trade Center and the terrible loss of life."

"That's a horrific external attack, but now we are engaged in a very serious unfortunate but real battle for our democracy against forces, either led by or inspired by Donald Trump."
