After spending the morning at the Pentagon to mark the 25th anniversary of the September 11th tragedy, President Donald Trump apparently had another attack on his mind in the afternoon — posting the 5-year-old video of him telling January 6, 2021, rioters to go home after they violently stormed the Capitol building.

The video, which was posted in full on Trump’s Truth Social account Friday without any further context, shows the president repeating his false claim that he won the 2020 election but telling rioters to go home: “We have to have peace. So go home, we love you, you’re very special.”
A White House spokesperson said Trump reposted the video Friday as “a reminder to everyone that what the Democrats did to weaponize the justice system against President Trump has been debunked thoroughly.”
It’s unclear what cases they were referencing — the criminal case against Trump concerning the Capitol attack was dismissed due to his win in the 2024 election.

Trump has been repeatedly emphasizing voter fraud in recent months, increasingly and without evidence accusing Democrats of cheating in elections. At the GOP midterm convention this week, he implored the audience to “cheat like hell” to help Republicans keep control of Congress.
The January 6 video, about a minute in length, was panned at the time for being posted hours after the attack began and for being overly sympathetic to those storming the Capitol building. Around the same time Trump posted it Friday, he also had several other posts about the midterm convention.
