NOTE: On November 30, 2022 The Washington Post announced that it will stop publishing its stand-alone print magazine, one of the last of its kind in the country and which has been published under different names for more than six decades, and that the December 25, 2002 issue will be its last. The Post launched the magazine in its current form in 1986, though it had published a print Sunday magazine for the previous quarter century. On January 6, 2021, following the defeat of then-U.S. President Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential election, a large group of his supporters marched to the United States Capitol Building in Washington, D.C. The group was seeking to keep Trump in power by preventing a joint session of Congress from counting the electoral college votes to formalize the victory of President-elect Joe Biden.

Starting at noon on January 6, at a "Save America" rally on the Ellipse, Trump repeated his claims of election irregularities and said "If you don't fight like hell, you're not going to have a country anymore." During and after his speech, thousands of attendees walked to the Capitol, and hundreds breached police perimeters as Congress was beginning the electoral vote count. More than 2,000 protesters entered the building, some of whom: occupied and vandalized it; battled with Capitol Police officers and reporters; and attempted to locate lawmakers. Some vandalized the offices of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and other members of Congress. With building security breached, Capitol Police evacuated and locked down both chambers of Congress and several buildings in the Capitol Complex. Protesters occupied the empty Senate chamber while federal law enforcement officers defended the evacuated House floor. In a Twitter video, he reasserted that the election was "fraudulent," but told his supporters to "go home in peace". The Capitol was clear of protesters by mid-evening, and the counting of the electoral votes resumed and was completed in the early morning hours of January 7.
