2021 Starts With An Attack On The U.S. Capitol
It was a grim week in the United States of America. It began with the revelation that President Trump had pushed a top Georgia official to overturn the state s presidential election results. By Wednesday, the president was riling up supporters at a rally outside the White House, scores of whom marched down the street and stormed the U.S. Capitol as Congress was in the process of certifying the election that Trump lost.
Five people died.
Now authorities have begun to file charges against insurrectionists as calls for Trump to leave office by way of resignation, the 25th Amendment or a second impeachment grow louder, even with just 10 days left in his term. Meanwhile, the president is becoming increasingly isolated, as tech giants limit his use of major social media platforms, fearing his words could incite more violence.
The FBI has sent a memo to authorities across the country, warning of the possibility of armed protests at all 50 state capitols starting this week and lasting through Inauguration Day, according to multiple reports.
