On January 5 and January 6, 2021, supporters of U.S. President Donald Trump gathered in Washington, D.C. to protest against the result of the 2020 presidential election, and support Trump's demand for Vice President Mike Pence and the United States Congress to reject President-elect Joe Biden's victory.[5][6][7] At first, protestors gathered for the "Save America" rally, a planned event on The Ellipse where attendees heard speeches from Trump and Rudy Giuliani.

Before the speeches were over, a pro-Trump mob marched on Congress and stormed the building.[8] Congress was in session at the time, conducting the Electoral College vote count and debating after Senator Ted Cruz of Texas and Congressman Paul Gosar of Arizona's fourth congressional district objected to the Electoral College count of Arizona's votes. Several buildings in the U.S. Capitol complex were evacuated, and protestors broke past security to enter the U.S. Capitol building, including National Statuary Hall.[3][9] All buildings in the Capitol complex were subsequently locked down.[10]

An armed standoff took place at the doors to the House chambers,[11][12] and one unarmed female protestor was shot inside the Capitol building by law enforcement, later dying of her injuries.[13][14] At least one improvised explosive device was reported to have been found on Capitol grounds, and another just blocks away at the headquarters of the Republican Party.[15][16]

Trump initially denounced Pence and his deputy as failing to "do what should have been done to protect our Country and our Constitution", despite Pence having no constitutional power to reject Biden's victory.[17][18] At 4:22 p.m. EST, Trump urged his supporters on Twitter to "go home in peace" while re-affirming baseless allegations of election fraud.[19] The attack on the Capitol has been described as "insurrection", "borderline sedition", and domestic terrorism.[20][21][22][23]

Background

The 2020 United States presidential election, held on November 3, 2020, was won by the Democratic candidate Joe Biden, who defeated the incumbent Republican president Donald Trump. Before, during and after the counting of votes, Trump and other Republicans attempted to overturn the election, falsely alleging widespread voter fraud and trying to deny results.[24]

With Congress scheduled to meet on January 6, 2021, to certify the results of the Electoral College vote, Trump announced plans for a rally ahead of the event to continue his protest on the validity of several states' election results. Washington, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser requested on December 31, 2020, for District of Columbia National Guard troops be deployed to support local police during the anticipated demonstrations. She wrote in her request that the guardspeople would not be armed, and that they would be primarily responsible for "crowd management" and traffic direction, allowing police to focus on security concerns. Acting Secretary of Defense Christopher C. Miller approved the request on January 4, 2021. The approval activated 340 troops, with no more than 114 to be deployed at any given time.[25]

Trump had spent previous days suggesting that Vice President Pence should reject president-elect Joe Biden's victory, an act that is not within Pence's constitutional power, and he repeated this call in his speech on the morning of January 6.[18] The same afternoon, Pence released a letter to Congress in which he said he would not oppose Biden's victory.[18]

Events in the District of Columbia

"Save America" rally

Protestors began to gather in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday, January 5, in advance of a planned rally the next day. On Tuesday night and Wednesday morning, at least ten people were arrested.[3]

On the morning of Wednesday, January 6, protestors surrounded Washington Monument to rally. Several people gave speeches on The Ellipse, including Trump adviser Rudy Giuliani and Trump himself. Giuliani addressed the crowd, repeating conspiracy theories that voting machines used in the election were "crooked." Trump gave a speech from behind a glass barrier, attacking the media and calling for Pence to overturn the election results, something that is not within Pence's constitutional power.[18] Trump urged his supporters to march on the Capitol, where Congress meets:

You'll never take back our country with weakness. You have to show strength and you have to be strong. We have come to demand that Congress do the right thing and only count the electors who have been lawfully slated. I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard today.[26]

At the rally, Trump also stated "we will never concede."[27] Trump's sons Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump also spoke, verbally attacking Republican Congressmen and Senators who were not supporting the effort to change the Electoral College vote, and promising to campaign against them in future primary elections.[28]

Rioters storm the Capitol Building

Beginning at approximately 2:15 p.m. EST,[29] rioters began an attempt to storm buildings in the U.S. Capitol complex. Some buildings in the complex were evacuated, and rioters broke past security to enter the U.S. Capitol building, including National Statuary Hall.[3][9] The storming of the Capitol was organized on pro-Trump far-right social media websites, including Gab and Parler, which featured calls for violence against Congress and served as recruiting centers for weeks for QAnon, the Proud Boys, and other fringe elements.[30] Although most rioters simply walked into the Capitol on foot, others used ropes and makeshift ladders to invade the building and some broke windows to get in.[31]

After the breach, all buildings in the complex were later locked down, with no entry or exit from the buildings allowed. Those within the building were asked to move into offices and lock their doors and windows; those outside were advised to "seek cover".[10] Members of Congress inside the House were told to put on gas masks after law enforcement began using tear gas within the building.[11] According to Oregon Senator Jeff Merkley, some staff successfully rushed to rescue boxes of sealed electoral college votes from being burned by rioters.[32]

ABC News reported that shots were fired within the Capitol building, and that there was an armed standoff at the front door of the House chambers.[11][12] After pro-Trump rioters broke into the Capitol, multiple police officers drew their guns inside the House of Representatives chamber and pointed them towards the doors to the chamber, which were barricaded with furniture; there were a number of holes in the door.[33] An unarmed protestor was shot by a law enforcement officer within the Capitol, and later died from her injuries.[13][34][32] Pro-Trump rioters stormed the offices of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, flipping tables and ripping photos from walls; there was looting in the Capitol.[35][36] Capitol Police officers reported the building had been "trashed".[37] Observers saw "debris, trash, all in the elevators, things knocked down, posts knocked down" in all parts of the building.[38] Glass windows were broken in the National Statuary Hall.

Multiple officers were injured in the violence at the Capitol.[2]

National Guard and evacuation of Capitol

At approximately 2:31 p.m. EST, Washington, D.C., mayor Muriel Bowser ordered a 6 p.m. EST curfew to go into effect that night.[39] The curfew was also extended to nearby Alexandria and Arlington County in Northern Virginia.[40]

Governor of Virginia Ralph Northam tweeted that he would be sending members of the Virginia National Guard and 200 Virginia State Troopers to support Washington, D.C. law enforcement.[41] Governor Larry Hogan of Maryland also announced that he would send the Maryland State Police and Maryland National Guard.[42][43] Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy and Acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller decided to deploy the entire 1,100-strong force of D.C. National Guard to quell violence.[44] At approximately 3:45 p.m. EST, Miller spoke with Pence, Pelosi, McConnell and Schumer, and directed the National Guard and other "additional support" to respond to the riot.[45] Senator Jeff Merkley reported that Senate staff were able to rescue the electoral votes before rioters breached the Senate chamber.[46]

Smoke grenades were deployed on the Senate side of the Capitol by Capitol Police working to clear rioters from the building.[37] FBI and Department of Homeland Security agents wearing riot gear entered the Dirksen Senate Office Building around 4:30 p.m. EST[47] At least two improvised explosive devices, suspected pipe bombs, were found in Washington, D.C. One was discovered at the Republican National Committee headquarters, blocks away from the Capitol complex; the other was found on the grounds of the Capitol complex.[15] The Democratic National Committee headquarters was evacuated after a suspicious package was found. Both headquarters are a few blocks from the Capitol.[48]

Shortly before 5 p.m. EST, congressional leaders were reportedly being evacuated from the Capitol complex to Fort McNair, a nearby Army base.[49] At around 5:40 p.m. EST, the Sergeant-at-Arms announced that the Capitol building had been secured.[50]

After Capitol cleared

Congress resumed counting votes after the Capitol building was cleared, and police continued to try to push rioters away from the building. Protests continued, moving out of the Capitol Hill area. Some verbal and physical attacks on reporters were reported, with attackers denigrating media outlets as "fake news".[32]

Police arrested at least thirteen people and seized five firearms during the day's events.[4]

Outside the District of Columbia

Protesters in Kansas stormed into their state capitol in support of the protestors in D.C.[51] A capitol security guard stated that the protesters are allowed in the rotunda.[52] It was later reported that the protestors had obtained a permit allowing them to protest in the capital building and on the lawn of the building.[53]

Militia members in Georgia also attempted to storm the Georgia State Capitol, leading to the evacuation of Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger and other officials.[54] By about 3:15 p.m. it was reported that the majority of the demonstration had disbanded outside of the Capitol.[55]

Multiple U.S. State capitols closed for safety due to the events at the U.S. Capitol.[56][57]

Protestors in Washington (state) made their way onto the front lawn of the Washington Governor's Mansion.[58]

Protesters and counter-protesters demonstrated at the Ohio Statehouse in Columbus, Ohio. There was only a single brief violent incident reported.[59]

Reactions

Donald Trump

Trump tweeted at 2:38 p.m. EST, "Please support our Capitol Police and Law Enforcement. They are truly on the side of our Country. Stay peaceful!" He had spent previous weeks promoting the Saving America rally.[60] Trump later tweeted at 3:13 p.m., "I am asking for everyone at the U.S. Capitol to remain peaceful. No violence! Remember, WE are the Party of Law & Order – respect the Law and our great men and women in Blue. Thank you!".[61] At 4:22 p.m. EST, President Trump issued a video message urging his supporters to "go home in peace," telling the rioters, "we love you, you're very special".[19] He later tweeted "remember this day forever".[62]

Mike Pence

Pence tweeted at 3:35 p.m. EST, "This attack on our Capitol will not be tolerated and those involved will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law".[63]

Joe Biden and Kamala Harris

At 4:06 p.m. EST, President-elect Joe Biden addressed the nation from Wilmington, Delaware, calling the events an insurrection and borderline sedition, and said that "our democracy is under unprecedented assault".[64][65] He called upon Trump to go on national television and demand an end to the protests.[66][67] Minutes afterward, Vice President-elect Kamala Harris reiterated Biden's comments, writing that the protests were an "assault on the Capitol and our nation's public servants".[68]

George W. Bush

Former president Bush, who had infrequently commented on national matters since leaving office in 2009, released a statement saying "this is how election results are disputed in a banana republic – not our democratic republic," continuing that he was "appalled by the reckless behavior of some political leaders since the election and by the lack of respect shown today for our institutions, our traditions, and our law enforcement."[69]

Members of Congress and other current and former officials

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called upon Trump to "demand that all protestors leave the U.S. Capitol and Capitol Grounds immediately."[70]

Republican U.S. Representative Adam Kinzinger, among others, condemned the violence and described the events as a "coup attempt."[71] New York Attorney General Letitia James also described the events as an attempted coup, in a statement saying, "The coup attempt initiated by outgoing President Trump has been despicable..."[72] Democratic lawmaker Hakeem Jeffries stated that members of Congress plan to return and certify the Electoral College.[73] Mitt Romney described the events as an "insurrection".[74] On CSPAN, U.S. Representative Jamie Raskin said that after his son died on New Year's Eve, he had brought his family to the Capitol, to "show them a peaceful transfer of power".[75] Representative Mike Gallagher remarked of the riots that he had "not seen anything like this since I deployed to Iraq."[76] Representative Cori Bush tweeted her intent to introduce a resolution calling for the expulsion of "Republican members of Congress who have incited this domestic terror attack through their attempts to overturn the election".[77][78]

Terry Gainer, a former chief of the U.S. Capitol Police and former Senate sergeant-at arms, described the protests as unprecedented in law enforcement, declaring that "this is a much more hateful crowd incited by the president, himself. It's definitely something new in our business."[79] William Barr, Trump's former attorney general, denounced the violence, calling it "outrageous and despicable."[80]

Support for impeachment or removal

U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar and at least six other House Democrats, including Ayanna Pressley and Seth Moulton, called for Trump's immediate impeachment and removal by Congress when it can reconvene.[81][82][83] State-level officials who have described Trump's conduct as impeachable include Maryland Lieutenant Governor Boyd Rutherford.[84]

Representatives Ted Lieu and Charlie Crist called on Pence to remove Trump via the Twenty-fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution.[85][86] The National Association of Manufacturers also requested Vice President Mike Pence to "seriously consider" invoking the Twenty-fifth Amendment.[87]

Media and commentators

Fox News anchor Martha MacCallum, after rioters had breached the Capitol grounds, remarked on-air that "This is a huge victory for these protesters. They have disrupted the system in an enormous way!"[88] Ivanka Trump, the President's daughter, was criticized for addressing the rioters as "American patriots" in a tweet publicly urging for the cessation of violence, subsequently deleting the controversial message.[89]

Yoni Appelbaum of the The Atlantic called for the impeachment of Donald Trump a second time.[90] Several conservative commentators, including Rod Dreher and John Podhoretz, expressed their support for the impeachment and removal of Donald Trump.[91][92]
