On January 6, 2021, the United States Capitol Building in Washington, D.C.,
was attacked by a mob of supporters of then-U.S. president Donald Trump,
two months after his defeat in the 2020 presidential election.

The attack was ultimately unsuccessful in preventin…

Yet through their inaction, they too impair the political freedom of America that arises from the democratic character of its government and thus violate their elemental duty of citizenship.
