Congress goes into lockdown amid protests
The United States Congress went into an abrupt lockdown on Wednesday amid safety concerns emerging from the ongoing protests in front of the Capitol.
Vice President Mike Pence, who previously refused to overturn the results of the 2020 elections, was evacuated from the building.
The protesters gathered after sitting President Donald Trump's rally Save America, during which he again contested President-elect Joe Biden's victory in the pollings.
