President-Elect Joe Biden Condemns 'Insurrection' At US Capitol After Trump Supporters Storm The Building

US President-elect Joe Biden condemned what he called "insurrection" at the US Capitol on Wednesday (6 January), after protesters broke into the building and forced proceedings to formally count the Electoral College votes to halt.

"This is not protest, it's insurrection," Biden said in Wilmington, Delaware. "This is not dissent. It's disorder. It's chaos. It borders on sedition."

Trump has refused to acknowledge defeat in the 2020 presidential race with Biden and is still pushing for claims of voter fraud, despite that US courts at different levels had dismissed dozens of lawsuits filed by his campaign and allies due to a profound lack of evidence.
