Photo by: zz/STRF/starmaxinc.com STAR MAX Copyright 2021 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED Telephone/Fax: (212) 995-1196 1/6/21 The United States Capitol Building in Washington, D.C. was breached by thousands of protesters during a "Stop The Steal" rally in support of President Donald Trump during the worldwide coronavirus pandemic.

This, while the Democratic Party gained control of The United States Senate - sweeping the Georgia Runoff Election and securing two additional seats. (Washington, D.C.)
