US Capitol secured after pro-Trump supporters storm building to stop electoral count
The United States Congress has reconvened after it was thrown into chaos as pro-Trump supporters stormed the Capitol building, at the behest of the president.
Legislators were meeting to confirm incoming President Joe Biden’s win, when protesters fought police. One woman was reportedly shot and died.
Trump eventually told his supporters to go home but repeated baseless claims about winning the presidential election by a landslide.
Al Jazeera’s Patty Culhane reports from Washington, DC, the US.

So let's see, we are spending approx. 800 billion a year on defense and yet in 2hours; Honey boo-boo, Duck Dynasty, and a Buffalo minotaur lay siege and nearly collapse our govt. Maybe that's what Trump means by herd immunity…
This video is full of baseless claims that trump told misinformation and lies.
Police responsible for this chaos.
Please understand this isn't over. Please don't go to inauguration. Twitter has described an additional attack on the Capital sometime between January 17th-20th. Between first day of new congress and inauguration. PLEASE COPY PASTE AND REPOST!
🤗🤔Olympus has fallen, by it own claimed citizens 😆😅
Nice to see you in chaos

Believe in “KARMA” this is what Buddha said. Whatever you have done is result of your own Karma. Sooner or later everything will comeback
Trump lost. He thought his idiotic mob would take over our country. WRONG! 😂
Inside job.
There is no Democracy. Why The media is against Trump but when Other countries do the same they are dubbed authoritarian.
The entire world claims protesting.
Sit back and shut up per your leaders and learn how Americans will grow to protest 😘
And this is the Democry you want us to have ???
Trump 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸2020 👍👍Revolution 👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
Fascism is the machine of making and spreading lies,
false stories, falsehood fictions, fable, and fabricated demonstration, fib
narrations, and pseudo-missions and pseudo-complains, and now a fascist-like
Benito Mussolini and his copy- cat Hitler, unfortunately, rules the United
States of America and regrettably many foolish lumpens do support him blindly
meanwhile, capitalism and the church behind the scene strengthening it. And
Trump by all means is a Fascist. Trump is an opportunist and is riding on the
wave of Corona Virus vigorously. If the wants to get rid of
Trump must find another way to save the election; the approaches like
impeachment and judicial approaches for his obvious negligence are on the
spread of coronavirus.
Too funny. So caught up spreading democracy that they forgot how it works. They're the rich brat that's stupid and indolent enough to still die in the gutter, despite countless privileges and opportunities.
They brought in National Guards not just Police….
Looks USA downfall
Hahahahaha democracy
Same as Hong Kong Riots in 2019.
I live 40 minutes from DC. These are not protestors. They are rioters and terrorists.
Trump came into power with a slogan "make America great again" and finished with making it Putin's puppet, and terrorism. conclusion, Clinton was right, Russia was behind Trump's elections.
