New photos show Mike Pence hiding in a secure location after he refused evacuate the Capitol on Jan. 6 and the moment he saw Trump's video praising the rioters

Before being escorted to safety, Pence was within 40 feet of the pro-Trump mob, CBS News reported.

In March, a Secret Service inspector named Lanelle Hawa said during an accused rioter's trial that Pence spent "several hours, approximately four or five hours" in the Capitol's underground loading dock throughout the attack.

"It's located underneath the Capitol building, sort of under the plaza on the Senate side," Hawa said.

"When we got down to the secure location, Secret Service directed us to get into the cars, which I did, and then I noticed that the vice president had not," Greg Jacob, then Pence's senior counsel, said at a Thursday public hearing. "I understood that the vice president had refused to get into the car."

Pence declined to evacuate despite the mob's chants because he "did not want to take any chance that the world would see the vice president of the United States fleeing the United States Capitol," Jacob added.

The pro-Trump mob that stormed that Capitol chanted "Hang Mike Pence."

"Aware of the rioters chants to 'hang Mike Pence,'" Committee co-chair Rep. Liz Cheney said in her opening, "the president responded with this sentiment: 'Maybe our supporters have the right idea.' Mike Pence 'deserves it.'"

He remained in the loading dock until the riot was over — watching the video Trump released hours into the attack telling rioters to go home.

"Go home. We love you. You're very special," Trump said in the video.

The morning of the attack, Pence and former President Donald Trump had an intense phone call, White House aides told the committee.

"I remember hearing the word 'wimp.' Either he called him a wimp — I don't remember if he said, 'you are a wimp, you'll be a wimp' — wimp is the word I remember," Nicholas Luna, a former assistant to Trump, said.

Ivanka Trump's chief of staff, Julie Radford, said that Ivanka Trump told her he called Pence "the P-word."

Trump, and the mob of his supporters, wanted Pence to overturn the 2020 election results — incorrectly claiming it was a Vice Presidential power.

Federal judge J. Michael Luttig told the committee Thursday that if Pence attempted the feat, it would have resulted in a "revolution."
