WARNING: OFFENSIVE LANGUAGE – In an often tearful and sometimes profane testimony, four officers recounted the mayhem and 'attempted coup' of the Jan. 6 U.S. Capitol riots during a Congressional hearing. Here are some key moments

WASHINGTON, July 27 - Four police officers who faced attacks and racial slurs as they defended the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 from a riot by then-President Donald Trump's supporters were the first on Tuesday toIt was the first hearing before the nine-member panel, comprised of seven Democrats and two Republicans."Some people are trying to deny what happened. To whitewash it... Let's be clear. The rioters who tried to rob us of our democracy were propelled here by a lie.

"As an immigrant to the United States, I am especially proud to have defended the U.S. Constitution and our democracy on Jan. 6."U.S. Capitol Police sergeant Aquilino Gonell; Washington DC Metropolitan Police Department officers Michael Fanone and Daniel Hodges, and U.S. Capitol Police Officer Harry Dunn are sworn in to testify during the opening hearing of the U.S. House Committee investigating the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, on Capitol Hill in Washington, U.S.

"The indifference shown to my colleagues is disgraceful," Fanone said, raising his voice and pounding the table."One woman in a pink 'MAGA' shirt yelled, 'You hear that, guys, this nigger voted for Joe Biden!' Then the crowd, perhaps around 20 people, joined in, screaming 'Boo! Fucking nigger!' No one had ever – ever - called me a 'nigger' while wearing the uniform of a Capitol Police officer.
