BREAKING: President Trump: "A new administration will be inaugurated on Jan. 20. My focus now turns to ensuring a smooth, orderly and seamless transition of power. This moment calls for healing and reconciliation."
President Trump says he is "outraged" by "heinous attack" on the U.S. Capitol by his supporters, saying they "defiled the seat of American democracy;" tells them that "you do not represent our country" and "you will pay."
In video tonight, Pres. Trump says he "immediately" deployed the National Guard.
He had to be convinced to deploy the Guard, a person familiar with the matter says.
VP Pence was in contact with the Pentagon, and “encouraged a much more rapid deployment than what was occurring.”
