MNI BRIEF: Trump Asks Protesters to Leave Capitol Peacefully

WASHINGTON (MNI)

U.S. President Donald Trump Wednesday said the protesters who stormed Congress should leave peacefully and repeated his claim the election was "stolen."

"This was a fraudulent election, but we can't play into the hands of these people. We have to have peace," Trump said in a videotaped message. "You have to go home now, we have to have peace."
