Police officers who defended the Capitol on January 6th commend Vice President Harris for reclaiming the area where Trump delivered his speech.


Kamala Harris spoke at the Ellipse near the White House, where Donald Trump urged his supporters to “fight like hell” on Jan. 6, 2021, with officers who fought off the pro-Trump mob watching. Officer Daniel Hodges, who was at both events, said it was a different experience and appreciated the contrast Harris’ rally presented. Harris referenced the events of Jan. 6 during her speech, including the officers who were injured. Craig Sicknick, brother of Capitol Police officer Brian Sicknick, who died after the attack, also spoke at the rally, criticizing Trump’s actions. Former U.S. Capitol Police Sgt. Aquilino Gonell, who was assaulted during the attack, was emotional at the rally, noting the positive tone of Harris’ speech. Gonell, like Hodges, has campaigned for Harris, hoping to defeat Trump in future elections. Both officers expressed hope that the sacrifices made on Jan. 6 would not be in vain and that political violence should not be accepted. They also highlighted the importance of moving forward and choosing leaders like Harris who bring hope rather than chaos and hate. The rally marked a poignant moment for those who experienced the violence at the Capitol on Jan. 6 and served as a reminder of the need for strong leadership to prevent such events from happening again.
