{{Quote|What we witnessed yesterday was not dissent — it was disorder. They weren’t protestors — they were rioters, insurrectionists, and domestic terrorists. I wish we could say we couldn’t see it coming, but that isn’t true. We could.|President-elect [[wikipedia:Joe Biden|Joe Biden]] discusses the event.}}

==Events==

At 2:20 pm the Senate chamber was locked down; at 2:30, it was evacuated and was subsequently taken over by rioters. At this point, police deployed tear gas to suppress the rioters. 6 hours later, armed police were then able to re-secure the Capitol. The military and the National Guard subsequently established a cordon round the building. After that, vote results from Congress were resumed late evening and Biden's victory was confirmed by Congress the next day at 3:41 am.

As a result of the rampage, Donald Trump was permanently banned from using all of his social media accounts, including his beloved Twitter. One week later on January 13, 2021, he was impeached for the second time on the charge of incitement of insurrection, thus becoming the first American President to be impeached twice (he had previously been impeached in 2019 for allegedly pressuring the Ukrainian government to rig the 2020 election by investigating Joe Biden). He was acquitted by the Senate for the second time on February 13, 2021 on a vote of 57-43. Seven Republican senators voted to convict, while some that voted not guilty chastised Trump. An investigation by the US House of Representatives later concluded that Trump was responsible for inciting the riot, although he could not be prosecuted again.
