“The View” host <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/sunny-hostin">Sunny Hostin</a> said she didn’t want to move on from what happened on <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/january-6">January 6th, 2021</a>, and compared it to World War II, the Holocaust, and slavery.
During the <a href="https://x.com/theblaze/status/1876312352108564833">ABC talk show</a> on Monday, Hostin said the country needed to find “moral clarity” and said the blame for what happened on January 6th, 2021, at the U.S. Capitol needed to be placed at the feet of President-elect Donald Trump.
“You don&#8217;t move on because January 6th was an atrocity,” Hostin claimed. “It was one of the worst moments in American history. And when you think about the worst moments in American history like World War II, things that happened like the Holocaust, chattel slavery.&#8221;

“We need to never forget,” Hostin continued. “Because past becomes prologue if you forget any race.”
The audience agreed and clapped along at the host’s comments and several of the people on the panel agreed as well.
Hostin’s cohost Sarah Haines <a href="https://x.com/TheView/status/1876335580226712046">suggested</a> that what happened on January 6th should be “commemorated every year” because watching those videos “shook” her to the core, suggesting that future generations won’t know about what happened four years ago unless people continue to make sure it is talked about.

“And hopefully, every year we will continue to show video of January 6, cause I won’t tell you how to feel, you just watch that video and you tell me what you see,” Haines said, without explaining further. 
On Sunday in a <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2025/01/05/president-biden-jan-6-democracy/">Washington Post</a> Op-Ed, President Joe Biden also urged Americans to not forget about what happened on January 6th four years ago, labeling it a day when “violent insurrectionists attacked the Capitol.”
“We should be proud that our democracy withstood this assault,” Biden wrote. “And we should be glad we will not see such a shameful attack again this year. But we should not forget. We must remember the wisdom of the adage that any nation that forgets its past is doomed to repeat it. We cannot accept a repeat of what occurred four years ago.&#8221;
He also wrote that the “unrelenting effort” that’s “underway to rewrite — even erase — the history of that day” must not succeed, adding that “we cannot allow the truth to be lost.”
&#8220;The summer of 2020 was marked by riots fueled by allegations of police brutality, none of which resulted in arrests and prosecutions as aggressive as those targeting January 6th rioters,&#8221; The Daily Wire previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/biden-still-aggressively-prosecuting-january-6-defendants-as-pardons-loom">reported</a>. Only one person was killed on January 6. Ashley Babbitt, an unarmed Trump supporter, was shot by Michael Byrd, a police officer with a lengthy <a href="https://justthenews.com/sites/default/files/2024-11/11.20.2024%20Letter%20From%20Rep.%20Barry%20Loudermilk%20to%20USCP%20Chief%20of%20Police%20Manger_0.pdf">disciplinary record</a>.
