Insurrection At The Capitol

Lawmakers want to know what the intelligence community knew about the planned attack, and why they didn't prepare more thoroughly.

Following the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, states are fortifying their legislative buildings and calling in the National Guard in anticipation of potentially violent protests.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., announced that Russel Honoré, who commanded troops during Hurricane Katrina, would conduct a security review of the Capitol complex after last week's riot.

"It's only a matter of time, justice is coming," Jacob Chansley, the "QAnon Shaman," said in a hand-written note to Vice President Mike Pence.

Evangelicals, says Ed Stetzer of the Billy Graham Center at Wheaton College, should start to reckon with their own behaviors and actions that may have helped fuel the insurrection at the Capitol.

The Joint Chiefs of Staff issued a message noting that violence isn't covered by free speech and that the breach of the U.S. Capitol was an assault on the government.

For many Americans, this week's attack was shocking. But for the millions of Americans born in countries with a history of political instability, the event has carried a different resonance.

Many young people across the country are finding this moment extremely scary. Parents, caregivers and teachers can help them cope.

The move is the most severe punishment any social media company has taken in response to Trump, who used online platforms to encourage the violent mob that stormed the Capitol on Wednesday.

The woman killed by United States Capitol Police was identified as Ashli E. Babbitt, 35, of San Diego. She was one of four who died during Wednesday's events.
