    We need to restore the honor, the integrity, and the independence of the Department of Justice in this nation — and this is the group that will get it done.

    For the past four years, President Trump has unleashed an all-out assault on the institutions of our democracy. Yesterday was but the culmination of that unrelenting attack.

    This team shares my belief that the middle class built this country and that unions built the middle class. They will help us emerge from the most inequitable economic crisis in modern history by building an economy where every American is in on the deal.

    Our jobs team’s mission is clear: execute the Build Back Better agenda. They will work to dig us out from the worst, most unequal jobs crisis in nearly a century by supporting small businesses and rebuilding the backbone of America — our middle class.

    No one can tell me that if it had been a group of Black Lives Matter protestors yesterday that they wouldn’t have been treated very differently than the mob that stormed the Capitol. We all know that’s true — and it’s unacceptable.

    Merrick Garland will serve as the Attorney General of the United States — not as my personal lawyer.

    What we witnessed yesterday was not dissent — it was disorder. They weren’t protestors — they were rioters, insurrectionists, and domestic terrorists. I wish we could say we couldn’t see it coming, but that isn’t true. We could.

    It’s time for a Department of Justice that serves the interests of the people — not a presidency. Tune in as I introduce key nominees to lead the Department.

    Our nominees for the Justice Department will restore the independence of the Department, so it serves the interests of the people—not a presidency. They’ll rebuild public trust in the rule of law and work to ensure a more fair and equitable justice system.

    Today is a reminder, a painful one, that democracy is fragile. To preserve it requires people of good will, leaders with the courage to stand up, who are devoted not to pursuit of power and personal interest at any cost, but to the common good.

    Our way is plain: It is the way of democracy — of lawfulness, and of respect — respect for each other, and for our nation.

    I call on President Trump to go on national television now to fulfill his oath and defend the Constitution by demanding an end to this siege.

    Let me be very clear: the scenes of chaos at the Capitol do not represent who we are. What we are seeing is a small number of extremists dedicated to lawlessness. This is not dissent, it's disorder. It borders on sedition, and it must end. Now.

    I called Reverend Warnock and Jon Ossoff this morning to congratulate them on their hard-fought campaigns. Georgia voters delivered a resounding message yesterday: they want action on the crises we face and they want it right now. Together, we'll get it done.
