Rioters occupied the empty Senate chamber while federal law enforcement officers defended the evacuated House floor. With building security breached, Capitol Police evacuated and locked down both chambers of Congress and several buildings in the Capitol Complex. Some vandalized and looted the offices of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi ( D‑ CA) and other members of Congress. A gallows was erected west of the Capitol, and some rioters chanted "Hang Mike Pence" after he rejected false claims by Trump and others that the vice president could overturn the election results.

More than 2,000 rioters entered the building, many of whom occupied, vandalized, and looted assaulted Capitol Police officers and reporters and attempted to locate lawmakers to capture and harm. Starting at noon on January 6, at a "Save America" rally on the Ellipse, Trump repeated false claims of election irregularities and said "If you don't fight like hell, you're not going to have a country anymore." During and after his speech, thousands of attendees, some armed, walked to the Capitol, and hundreds breached police perimeters as Congress was beginning the electoral vote count.

Ĭalled to action by Trump, thousands of his supporters gathered in Washington, D.C., on January 5 and 6 to support his false claim that the 2020 election had been "stolen by emboldened radical-left Democrats" and to demand that Vice President Mike Pence and the Congress reject Biden's victory. As of July 7, 2022, monetary damages caused by attackers exceed $2.7 million. Four officers who responded to the attack died by suicide within seven months. Many people were injured, including 138 police officers. Five people died either shortly before, during, or following the event: one was shot by Capitol Police, another died of a drug overdose, and three died of natural causes. According to the House select committee investigating the incident, the attack was the culmination of a seven-part plan by Trump to overturn the election. The mob sought to keep Trump in power by preventing a joint session of Congress from counting the electoral college votes to formalize the victory of President-elect Joe Biden. President Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential election, a mob of his supporters attacked the United States Capitol Building in Washington, D.C. The only good thing that came out of working there was a few coworkers.On January 6, 2021, following the defeat of U.S. I tried to talk to my manager about it and she ignored my emails. If you want to switch to a different dept they act happy for you, until you want to come back and tell you "you'll keep the same pay" and rip it out from under you without even giving you a heads up. The turn over rate is SKY HIGH, which could be helped if they would listen to the reps and change things up. They also make it so hard to get a raise, you think you're hitting everything you need to get to the next "tier" but they always change something where you aren't eligible for the raise. There is no communication, and the advisors have no clue what each dept does. When you transfer to the admission reps, they are rarely kind and make it hard to even transfer the person. You have to make sure you follow the script they give you, as the "potential students" MUST NOT KNOW they are calling a call center, they want the illusion of "calling the front desk" which is ridiculous. You are only given FIFTEEN MINUTES a day for bathroom time other than that you can not be away from your desk. Many of us were having a hard time and they didn't do a thing about it. When we switched to working from home, they were not supportive at all. You call the same people over and over again trying to get them to an admission rep. They try and tell you it's not a scam but it is. I had 400+ calls a day and that still wasn't good enough. You're micromanaged and constantly harped on to be "ready" for calls. Unless you're kissing up to management they don't care about you.

Now being away from the company, I can truly say it was a fever dream to work there.
