Violent Trump supporters have breached the US Capitol building. Capitol police officers confirmed the mob laid siege to the Capitol as lawmakers counted the Electoral College votes. Shortly after 1 p.m., pro-Trump protesters pushed through barriers along the perimeter of the Capitol.

Approximately 90 minutes later, police said the insurgents broke into the building and began vandalizing the House and Senate. One woman was shot during the insurrection and has died.

Historically, the transfer of power from the outgoing president to the president-elect has been peaceful. The cooperative effort is a historic precedent dating back to the Adams administration in 1800. As President Donald Trump's term comes to an end, he and his administration have blocked a peaceful transition. The world is watching and a majority of Americans disapprove of the Trump administration's transition efforts. According to Business Insider, Trump and his team have repeatedly placed hurdles in the way of the Biden administration. Recent polling shows that 54% of respondents disapproved of Trump's actions surrounding the transfer of power.
President Donald Trump has urged his supporters to flock to Washington DC on January 6. He is promising followers a "wild" rally. January 6 is the same day that Congress is scheduled to meet to formally finalize the presidential election results. Business Insider reports not much can legally be done on the date. However, many pro-Trump Republicans have said they will try to disrupt the process.
