During the assault on Capitol Hill, Pelosi assured that she wanted to "punch" Trump

By Rebecca Shabad —

The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Democrat Nancy Pelosi, said on the day of the assault on Capitol Hill that she hoped then-President Donald Trump would come to the complex so she could “punch him.”

Pelosi's daughter, documentary filmmaker Alexandra Pelosi, captured that moment and many others on January 6 in footage recorded for HBO and first obtained by CNN.

It was issued a few hours after the House select committee investigating the attack played other snippets of the footage during its ninth hearing on Thursday.

"Tell him if he comes here, we're going to the White House," Pelosi jokes, reacting to Trump's speech on the White House ellipse earlier that day.

Another video shows Pelosi speaking to her staff as a crowd began to build up on Capitol Hill.

In it, Pelosi's chief of staff, Terri McCullough, informs the president that the Secret Service had "dissuaded" Trump from coming to Capitol Hill to join his supporters.

"They told him that they don't have the resources to protect him here," says McCullough, "so for now, he's not coming, but that could change."

“I hope he comes

,” Pelosi replies, “I want to punch him.

This is my moment.

I have been waiting for this.

For trespassing on the Capitol grounds.

I want to punch him and I'm going to go to jail and I'm going to be happy."

Footage also showed Pelosi on the phone with former Vice President Mike Pence on two separate occasions that day about how they might resume certifying the 2020 election results.

Finally, the members returned to the Capitol shortly after 7:00 pm to finish the process.

Pelosi and Trump had a very strained relationship throughout her presidency, including the time in 2019 when she and other Democratic leaders walked out of a White House meeting with Trump after he had what Pelosi described as a “ nervous attack".

At the end of Trump's third State of the Union address in 2020, Pelosi famously tore up a copy of his speech.
