Capitol Under Siege: Pictures Of Pro-Trump Protestors On A Rampage

TOPLINE

The U.S. Capitol is on lockdown after protesters, urged on by President Trump and demanding that Congress block President-elect Joe Biden’s Electoral College certification, pushed past police Wednesday afternoon and entered the building.

KEY FACTS

The protesters clashed with police outside the Capitol before storming inside, forcing the Senate debate over Electoral College certification to be suspended as lawmakers shelter in place.

Images and social media posts from inside the building show protesters wandering the halls of the U.S. Capitol.

At a nearby march earlier today, Trump encouraged his supporters to “peacefully and patriotically” protest outside the U.S. Capitol Building.
