January 6th surveillance video, newly released by court order this week, shows Trump supporters chatting and shaking hands with police, as some continue to enter and exit the Capitol through broken windows and a door that had been forced open earlier that afternoon.

The time stamp on this footage is from 3:00-3:06pm, 48 minutes after the initial breach of the Capitol (seen here at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUjtmt_9GcY). Several individuals had smashed these windows using a wooden beam, police riot shield and other means, leading to the open-door scene here later that afternoon.

The crowd streams in and out of the building, some interacting with officers as they encounter them in the halls of the U.S. Capitol.

(No audio is available with this footage release, only the surveillance camera video).
