Full coverage from the Jan. 6 anniversary
Thursday marked one year since the Jan. 6 riot, where supporters of then-President Donald Trump stormed the Capitol to protest the 2020 election results.
In a speech Thursday morning noting the anniversary, President Joe Biden placed blame on Trump for the attempted insurrection and pushed back on many of the former president’s false claims about the 2020 election.
Biden called Trump a “defeated former president” and vowed not to shrink from the fight against those who have sought to undermine the electoral process. Meanwhile, Senate Democrats reflected on the riot by renewing their voting rights push.
Key moments:
- Analysis: Could this be Biden’s unofficial re-election launch?

- GOP senators who voted against certifying 2020 election say they have no regrets
