I did not seek this fight brought to this Capitol one year ago today but I will not shrink from it either. I will stand in this breach. I will defend this nation, not allow no one to place a dagger at the throat of democracy.

To me, the true patriots were the more than 150 (sic) Americans who peacefully expressed their vote at the ballot box, the election workers who protected the integrity of the vote, and the heroes who defended this Capitol. You can't love…

The strength of democracy is the rule of law. The strength of democracy is the principle that everyone should be treated equally, that elections should be free and fair.

It’s up to all of us—to 'We the People'—to stand for the rule of law, to preserve the flame of democracy, to keep the promise of America alive.

The Bible tells us that we shall know the truth and the truth shall make us free. We shall know the truth. Well, here is the God`s truth about January 6, 2021.

COVID, as we're dealing with it now, is not here to stay.

We cannot allow ourselves to be that kind of nation. The way forward is to recognize the truth and to live by it.

the Capitol attack a year ago was a dagger at the throat of democracy.

Are we going to be a nation that accepts political violence as a norm? Or are we going to be a nation where we allow partisan election officials to overturn the legally expressed will of the people. Are we going to be a nation that lives…

No, I don't think COVID is here to stay that having COVID in the environment here and in the world is probably here to stay, but COVID, as we're dealing with it now is not here to stay.

Are we seeing a turning point, for Joe Biden's presidency? It's good question.

We must pass the voting rights bills that are now before the Senate, and the American people must also do something more.

Those who stormed this Capitol and those who instigated and incited and those who called on them to do so held a dagger at the throat of America.

You can’t love your country only when you win. You can’t obey the law only when is convenient. You can’t be patriotic when you embrace and enable lies.

They want you to see Election Day as the day of insurrection and the riots that took place there on January 6, as a true expression of the will of people. Can you think of a more twisted way to look at this country, to look at America? I…

We saw with our own eyes rioters menace these halls, threatening the life of the speaker of the House, literally erecting gallows to hang the vice president of the United States of America.

One year ago today, in this sacred place, democracy was attacked.

What was at stake then, and now, is the right to have our future decided the way the Constitution prescribes it: by we, the people—all the people.

The violent assault that took place here... reflects the fragility of democracy. Yet, the resolve I saw in our elected leaders... reflects its strength.

The former president of United States of America has created and spread a web of lies about the 2020 election, because his bruised ego matters more to him than our democracy or our Constitution. He`s not just a former president. He`s a…

For the first time in our history, a president had not just lost an election, he tried to prevent the peaceful transfer of power.

The former president and his supporters have decided the only way for them to win is to suppress your vote and subvert our elections. It`s wrong. It`s undemocratic. And, frankly, it`s un-American. You can`t obey the law only when it`s…

Capitalism without competition isn`t capitalism, it`s exploitation.

The former president of the United States of America has created and spread a web of lies about the 2020 election. He`s done so because he values power over principle, because he sees his own interests as more important than his country`s…

We`re seeing COVID-19 cases among the vaccinated in workplaces across America, including here at the White House. But if you`re vaccinated and boosted, you are highly protected.
