On this date in history, 01/06/2021: More than a million protestors gather in Washington D.C. to demonstrate against widespread fraud in the 2020 elections. Capitol police allow a small number of protestors into the Capitol building where a few items are stolen or broken and one unarmed protestor is fatally shot by police. Government journalists label this peaceful protest an "insurrection", while protestors are arrested and held indefinitely without charges or trial. #otd #tdih #americanhistory #declineandfall
