United States. As the vote counting ceremony ratifying the election of Democrat Joe Biden took place on Capitol Hill, and the Democratic Party secured a majority in the Senate by winning the two seats in Georgia, a mob, responding to President Trump’s encouragement, stormed Capitol Hill and managed to gain entry. During the chaos, which lasted until the authorities imposed a 6:00 PM curfew, a woman was killed by an armed guard’s bullet inside Capitol Hill, and 52 people were arrested. A police officer was also killed by the mob, and others were injured. In the following days, hundreds of arrests were made of those involved in the assault on Congress. It was also discovered that some of them intended to kidnap Vice President Pence and Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. Pence narrowly escaped capture, carried to safety by Secret Service officers, while a police officer diverted the crowd upstairs. On this sad day, the United States shows the world the fragility of democracy, even American democracy, which, since the time of Tocqueville, has been held up as an example in the West.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
