Jan 6th 2024

Three years after the Capitol attack, Donald Trump remains the leading Republican candidate for the 2024 presidency. He is supported by Republican leaders who had condemned him before.
Trump continues to promote false claims about the stolen 2020 election, which fuels the upcoming presidential race and raises questions about the future of democracy.
The anniversary of the attack coincides with a tumultuous period in American politics, with Congress struggling to govern and the start of the presidential nominating contests approaching.
