“I am here as an ordinary citizen. I think we all saw what happened on that particular January 6th and now we’re going to see if justice will be done,” said Penn, who is co-author of Washington Metropolitan Police Officer Daniel Hodges, former Metropolitan Police Officer Michael Fanone and Capitol Police.

During the hearings in Washington, the committee is trying to demonstrate that former US President Donald Trump played a major role in his supporters storming the Capitol. He believed that the election results were incorrect and current President Joe Biden had been incorrectly elected as the new president. According to the commission, Trump would have incited his followers to go to the Capitol and then did nothing for hours to resolve the chaos.
Penn is known for years of campaigning for human rights and does not shy away from regularly lashing out at politicians. In February he was still in Ukraine to shoot a documentary in which residents will talk about the Russian invasion.
