The ratings are in. Nearly 20 million tuned in among all the networks that aired the hearing. Leaders were ABC and MSNBC with 4.9 and 4.2 respectively, followed by NBC with 3.6 million, CBS with 3.4 million and CNN with 2.6 million. FOX, which didn’t air the hearing, drew 3 million viewers.
As a comparison, 73 million watched the first Trump-Biden presidential debate.
Fox aired it, just not on the regular Fox News channel. It was on Fox Business. I don't know whether the Fox broadcast network did or not - I didn't check the local affiliate.
The definition of insurrection: a violent uprising against an authority or government. That falls for the BLM violent protests which they committed violence on the police on duty and violence on citizens protecting their properties and the resisting arrests on the police doing their constitutional duties.
When is the hearing on this and the many politicians in power adding fuel to the fire during an election year for political gain? Democrats are so full of themselves.
I have Cuban American and American friends who were at the Pro Trump Rally, Proud American Combat Veterans of the Army, Navy, Air Force and US Marines, they heard the same speech, Protest Peacefully and Patriotically, they did not set foot inside the Capitol Building and they did not riot, they were not influenced by Trump or the speech to commit any acts of violence, I wish I could have gone with them, but I was there in spirit with them. Viva Trump Forever. GMS Crazy Cuban Alberto, with Pride and Honor.
Every government protest and resisting arrest is an insurrection under the definition. BLM protests, LA Riots, Vietnam protests, Black protests and the list is long.
Are the Liberals protesting the Nixon and W Bush swear ins and arrests also insurrectionists? How about the liberals trying to stop Judge Kavanaugh from being swore in as a SC judge?
Is resisting arrest in any protest against the government an insurrection and obstruction? Yes or No.
Since they didn't have NO guns or killed police officers or burn down the building this should be misdemeanor not a national crisis.
Let's apply the same to the BLM protests and at least you can regain credibility back. It looks like political punishment by the people in power and the law is not being applied equally here.
Think harder.
Protesting perceived tyrannical actions of the state is a right.
Blocking the peaceful transfer of power is a Constitutional violation.

The article that I linked said that too. FOX Business had about 233,000 viewers.
Are you serious? It was a made for TV movie, completely void of facts.. Only the ignorant, easily fooled suckers who voted for Brandon watched and their minds, judging by all the above posts, were made up long ago by CNN..
You my friend, got snookered.. iT'S EASY to fool a leftist.. We hope for your recovery..
If you didn't watch it, you really don't have a clue. Especially about facts. There was live testimony from people who were there on both sides of the coup.
If you are arguing against that evidence, then nothing will convince you that this coup was encouraged by the president and is now being covered up by repubs that are still (foolishly) loyal to him.
As attested to by a half dozen people who have been charged, saying they were there because Trump told them to be there.
