The select committee to investigate the January 6 attack on a United States capital would be in order.

What I saw was just a war scene. It was something like I had seen out of the movies.

So why'd you decide to march to the Capitol?

Well, basically, you know, the president told everybody he had on down.

As an American, I was disgusted.

In a president who is willing to make the choices, Donald Trump made during the violence of January 6,

ever be trusted with any position of authority in our great nation again.

Last week, the congressional hearings into the January 6 attack on the United States Capitol

wrapped up for the summer after weeks of testimony.

Among the key witnesses to appear before the committee was Jay Michael Ludic,

a former federal judge and renowned conservative legal scholar.

Donald Trump and his allies and supporters are a clear and present danger to American democracy.

On this special edition of the Frontline Dispatch, excerpts from an extensive interview with Judge Ludic

and with Congressman Adam Kinzinger, one of two Republicans on the committee investigating January 6.

The interviews were conducted by producer Mike Weiser for our upcoming documentary,

Lies, Politics, and Democracy.
