YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

During a brief press availability at the Summit of the America's, President Joe Biden looked ahead to Thursday's Jan. 6 prime time hearing, saying, "as I said when it was occurring and subsequent, I think it was a clear, flagrant violation of the Constitution."

"I think that these guys and women broke the law, tried to turn around the result of an election. And there's a lot of questions who's responsible, who's involved," he said.

The series of hearings that will take place over the next several weeks begin with a prime-time session Thursday night in which the nine-member panel plans to give an overview of its 11-month investigation.

"I'm not going to make a judgment on that, but I just want you to know, we're going to probably be, a lot of Americans are going to be seeing for the first time some of the detail that that occurred," Biden said.

Turning to the summit in Los Angeles, Biden voiced optimism on expanding democracy and prosperity in the hemisphere.

"There's no reason why from Canada along the Arctic, all the way down the tip of Chile and Argentina, that this can't become a more democratic, a united and middle class, economically prosperous hemisphere," he said.

Biden was meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who touched on boosting jobs and protecting the environment.

"The center of it has to be, even as we gather with our friends across the Americas, how we create prosperity, how we counter the rising cost of living," Trudeau said.

"How we create good jobs for our citizens, not just in our respective countries, but in each other's countries, and throughout the hemisphere," he said.
