Homonym: January 6th (Epiphany)
On January 6, 2021, a significant event occurred in the United States when a group of supporters of then-President Donald Trump stormed the U.S. Capitol. This action aimed to disrupt the certification of the 2020 presidential election results, which declared Joe Biden the winner. The incident led to widespread condemnation and raised concerns about the state of democracy in the country.
The attack resulted in injuries, property damage, and several deaths. In response, the U.S. Congress reconvened later that day to complete the certification process. The event has since prompted numerous investigations and discussions about political extremism and security measures at government buildings.
