CAPITOL INSURRECTION: ONE YEAR LATER
President Biden had largely refused to talk about or react to former president Donald Trump and his role in the U.S. Capitol attack, but that changed on the anniversary of the insurrection.
Democrats spent the day recounting the terror they felt last year as a marauding mob of Trump supporters broke into the U.S. Capitol. Only a few Republican lawmakers issued condemnations of the insurrection.
