U.S. Capitol Siege

Sicknick, who engaged with pro-Trump rioters during the Jan. 6 insurrection, died after suffering strokes, Washington, D.C.'s chief medical examiner says.

Authorities say Elizabeth Rose Williams and Bradley Bennett entered the Capitol building alongside other pro-Trump extremists during the attack.

The U.S. Capitol Police says it is aware of and preparing for a threat by an identified militia group to breach the Capitol complex on Thursday.

President Biden said that "even those opposed to the conviction, like Senate Minority Leader McConnell, believe Donald Trump was guilty of a 'disgraceful dereliction of duty'."

In a statement issued shortly after a final vote in the Senate on a charge of inciting an insurrection, Trump said the "movement to Make America Great Again has only just begun."

The Senate minority leader condemned the actions taken by Trump on the day of the Capitol insurrection but said he didn't believe the impeachment trial was constitutional.

Seven Republicans joined with all Democrats and independents to vote to convict the former president for inciting an insurrection, but the tally is short of the two-thirds vote needed.

The Senate minority leader has made his decision on the article of impeachment, a source familiar with his decision tells NPR's Susan Davis.

The award is the institution's highest civilian honor and goes to an officer who is credited with saving the lives of many senators by distracting the mob away from the Senate chamber.
