“Was it being used properly this day?”
“No,” Moore says.
Moore described how U.S. Capitol Police used code words to assure staffers about their identity when they were extracting staffers who were in hiding during the attack.
Moore says that Capitol Police camera footage is typically stored for 30 days before it is automatically erased, but that they have the option of storing footage for longer periods within that timeframe.
Moore’s testimony concludes.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Jeffrey Nestler calls FBI Special Agent Stacy Shahrani next. She works for the FBI’s Computer Analysis Response Team (CART) and examined Guy Reffitt’s digital devices.

“If they won’t follow the Laws of the Land. We have no reason to follow their laws. Try and stop thousands of armed pissed off Patriots.” — Guy Reffitt in a message under the name “Call To Arms.”
“We took the Capitol of the United States of America. What have you done today?” — Reffitt
“We will be legion. This could be a turning point in our country and I’ll be damned if this time will pass unchecked.”
“I will be in full battle rattle. If that’s a law I break, so be it but I won’t do it alone.”
Messages show that Guy Reffitt repeatedly wrote “Capital” when referring to the Capitol.
You’ve got to imagine this being read deadpan in a federal courtroom to appreciate the full comedic effect.

A visual approximation of what we’re seeing: 
“Everybody’s coming out kicking and fucking screaming,” Guy Reffitt says, as he records himself talking to the rally goers. “I’m taking the Capitol with everybody fucking else.”
“This camera’s 360 degrees and it sees everything,” says Guy Reffitt, as he records himself telling others about this plans to storm the Capitol and drag lawmakers out.
Guy Reffitt, referring to Nancy Pelosi, says he’s “dragging that b***h out hardcore."
“This is the last day of war right here,” Reffitt said. “How many times can you take a c**k in the a**? I’m done!”
Background noise as Guy Reffitt lays out his violent plan is now “Don’t Stop Believin',” by Journey.
Guy Reffitt also recorded his own Zoom video call, so we’re viewing that now.
He’s wearing a camouflage Trump hat. The lighting isn’t great, and the camera needs to be elevated.
