Coverage of Capitol Riot Anniversary

The fourth anniversary of the January 6 attack on the Capitol is marked by concerns over President-elect Donald Trump's promise to pardon many involved in the riot, as he stated he would issue pardons on 'Day 1' of his presidency starting January 20.
More than 1,250 individuals have pleaded guilty or been convicted in connection with the January 6 events, with over 650 receiving prison sentences ranging from a few days to 22 years, according to reports on the legal outcomes of the riot.
Lawmakers are gathering to certify the presidential election amid tight security, reflecting on the legacy of the January 6 attack, which was described as 'the largest single day mass assault of law enforcement' in American history by Matthew Graves, the outgoing U.S. Attorney.
Democratic leaders have warned that pardoning those involved in the riot could have serious consequences for the rule of law and national security, emphasizing the need for accountability and caution in any decisions regarding pardons.
