6 Jan 2021 Jahr - January 6th Raid on Capitol

Beschreibung:

The raid on the capitol on January 6th, 2021 was an extremely important event that resulted in the polarization of American politics. The people who committed the raid on the capitol were made up vastly of far-right activists, who were mobilized by President Donald Trump. There were a wide variety of reasons for the raid, including to stop the certification of the election of President Biden, to provide more time to pressure state legislators into siding with Trump, and to possibly create a state of emergency where President Trump could invoke the insurrection act. The riots highlighted deep divisions in American society and politics over the legitimacy of the 2020 election. Trump and his supporters spent months spreading baseless claims of illegitimacy and fraud in the 2020 election, which angered many far-right activists and made them believe they were fighting for democracy.
