January 6 Was an ‘Attempted Coup’ by Trump to Overturn 2020 Election, Nancy Pelosi Says on Fifth Anniversary of U.S. Capitol Attack
Former U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has described the January 6, 2021 attack on the United States Capitol as an “attempted coup” incited by then-President Donald Trump to overturn the results of the 2020 election. Marking the fifth anniversary of the attack in a statement posted on X, Pelosi said the violence was not a spontaneous event but the culmination of a deliberate campaign to undermine democratic institutions, the rule of law and the peaceful transfer of power. She recalled how lawmakers, staff, journalists and law enforcement officers were forced to flee as the Capitol was overrun, with many officers beaten and left physically and psychologically scarred. Pelosi warned against efforts to downplay or rewrite the events of January 6, criticized moves to pardon or glorify those involved, and urged Americans to remain vigilant in defending democracy, protecting voting rights and holding accountable anyone who seeks to place themselves above the Constitution.
