Thousands of Trump supporters gathered in Washington D.C. to protest the certification of Joe Biden’s election victory in what has been dubbed the “Save America March.”
As the day’s events wore on a riot erupted, with violent mobs attacking federal police to breach the Capitol Building. Some have succeeded in entering and the building is currently under lockdown.
