Trump defense attorney Michael van der Veen was asked when former President Trump was made aware of the Capitol riot and what he did to stop it. He failed to provide any details, instead blaming a lack of due process and Democrats for not conducting an investigation.

Defense Attorney Fails To Answer When Trump Knew About Capitol Riot And What He Did To Stop It
Sham
Love how left wing media twists the narrative even with the title. This lawyer was spot on.
what now Pelosi Media ?
its the responsibility of the police forces not the national guard WEsalute ATty Van der Veen the expert defender and in accordance to constitution
So funny to see the hate filled sheep on here actually being brainwashed before our very eyes by this slanted news coverage. According to nbc, what’s up is down and the foolish go right along with. Like Jesus said,,,, “the blind leading the blind”! The question was answered fully, and NBC knows it while they hide the truth!
NO problem with this proceeding except the Republicans’ self interest and lie backing. How dare he state ‘no evidence’ when people died and the footage is overwhelming. But for Trump’s instruction they would NOT have been there…. disgusting display 👎
Of course he fails to answer. Why didn’t they ask him WHO WASN’T LAWFULLY FULFILLING CONSTITUTIONAL LAW – PENCE OR TRUMP???
Typical American Leftist media… the burden is on the accuser, not the defendant.
Answer the question
Boycott Amazon NBC Twitter Facebook Amazon
the… the… the… the… (a sign of oh CRAP; I should rebuke with other crap).
That's the most important question
Lying lawyer Trump well aware of what was going to happen…he was delighted with the results….!
Wow, he just flat out lied to everyone.
Trump was denied his request to have security at the Capital on that day.
BUT WHY? 🥸
Blah blah blah!
Van der Veer sounds just like Kayleigh MagaNinny
He organized it. When did he know, how stupid.
to all the democrats: what about the dozens of times your senators, members of congress, news casters, Hollywood celebs called for violence that resulted in death and destruction, I am appalled by what Trump did, just as I am by your hatefull one-sided blindness.
I just spent 2 hrs going from MSNBC, ABC, FOX, BBC, etc. what ever happened to journalism in this country? is all lies, biased, innuendo and false propaganda. none of those outlets reports the truth about their party, (they're all political hacks), the democrats control 90% of the narrative, using it to hide all the calls to hate and violance by their side, this will someday lead to major street violence, murders, and mayhem, and those responsible will still be controlling the narrative. so sad.
The whole trial is a sham by the traitor democrats
Wrong , prosecution had no answer , defending team told the truth , no time line ,
If this criminal was anyone else he would be sentenced because today he showed no remorse for what he caused!
An officer was literally getting crushed in a door because of Trump's mob!
Our government must be strong in the face of our own laws and in the image of our peers!
Anyone who says no one could see what has occurred was coming:
“I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose voters,” Trump said at a campaign rally here.
Trump has hosted an assault against the US Government causing lives to be lost for his own political-gain!
Our government is weak without accountability PERIOD!
He got people killed and even betrayed his best ally and put his life at risk!
Who knows what WILL happen in future-administrations if we don't say "NO!" to this now!
He should be in prison!
Are his lawyers as incompetent as trump?
,trump won stolen election. This is a Witchhunt. They hate President Trump because he is for the people, and cant be bought. Demonrats are going down. Impeach the installed potato! Ccp puppet Xbiden
Trump jr 2024!!!!! Your news is a joke
NBC News, an extension of the prosecution.
🇺🇸🇺🇸TRUMP🇺🇸🇺🇸
Sore Loser Trump 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Shame On Trump 😁😁😁😁😁😁
Person Woman Man Camera TV and Jail 👌
Shame On All Republican senators who defend Trump 😂😂😂
Stop this political witch hunt.
The left is proving that the swamp needs more than drained it needs to be turned with salt
Why do you think Donald Trump run for the republicans in 2016?? Because he saw the opportunity to take advantage of their stupidity 😂😂😂😂
Imagine this. A lawyer defending Trump is quoting "POTUS TWEETS" in his defense! Wow! The history books 100 years from now will be interesting to say the least. Trump is a permanent stain on our democracy and might single handedly sink it into the abyss.
First of all, if trump wanted to incite violence, things would have been way worse. Stop listening to the mainstream media
It wasn’t that he didn’t answer, he simply did not know. Why? Because the House “impeachment managers” and the House did NOT investigate. It NEVER is the responsibility of the defense to investigate — that’s the prosecution’s job in a innocent until PROVEN guilty system such as ours. Wake up you liberal morons. Get ahold of yourselves — the world is LAUGHING at you.
