US Attorney General Merrick Garland says the Justice Department is resolved to hold accountable all the individuals that were involved in the January 6 attacks, including those who never set foot in the Capitol building.

Former US president Donald Trump on Tuesday abruptly canceled a news conference he had scheduled for Jan. 6, the one-year anniversary of his supporters' deadly attack on the US Capitol.

Jacob Chansley was the face of the Jan. 6 riot at the US Capitol after pictures of him - wearing face paint with a horned head-dress and no shirt – emerged from inside the building.

Donald Trump's lawyers urge an appeals court to block access to hundreds of pages of important documents that can be used as a “weapon” against the former president.

A whistleblower has sent a letter to top lawmakers in Congress, detailing “failure” by Capitol Police leaders during the Jan. 6 raid to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.

In letters addressed individually to the four men, committee chair Bennie Thompson explains further why they are believed to have key information related to the Jan. 6 siege.

The US Capitol is beefing up defenses around its premises ahead of a Trump rally set to be held on Sept. 18.

Eight members will serve on the special congressional panel to investigate the events of Jan. 6, including Republican Representative and strong Trump critic, Liz Cheney.

At least five people were killed in the deadly Jan. 6 riot, including a police officer, which was carried out by right-wing supporters of former US President Donald Trump.

The Department of Justice is dismissing a case against a New York man charged in connection with the Jan. 6 protest at the US Capitol.
