House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s daughter Alexandra filmed video of congressional leaders hiding and evacuating the Capitol during the attack on Jan. 6, 2021. The footage is not proof that the attack was a setup.
Commotion aside, the video gives an unexpected look at legislators’ experience on Jan. 6, 2021. It shows House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., evacuating to a nearby U.S. Army base. It shows Pelosi and Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., calling government leaders to request additional security and law enforcement personnel to secure the Capitol.

Lights, camera, action. So much phoniness on both sides. This was a setup and we all know it."
