The Russian government conducted foreign electoral interference in the 2016 United States elections with the goals of sabotaging the presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton,boosting the presidential campaign of Donald Trump,and increasing political and social discord in the United States. According to the U.S. intelligence community,the operation—code named Project Lakhta—was ordered directly by Russian president Vladimir Putin. The "hacking and disinformation campaign" to damage Clinton and help Trump became the "core of the scandal known as Russiagate".

On January 6,2021,the United States Capitol Building in Washington,D.C.,was attacked by a mob of supporters of,at the time,the 45th U.S. president Donald Trump in an attempted self-coup d'état,two months after his defeat in the 2020 presidential election. They sought to keep him in power by preventing a joint session of Congress from counting the Electoral College votes to formalize the victory of President-elect Joe Biden. The attack was ultimately unsuccessful in preventing the certification of the election results. According to the bipartisan House select committee that investigated the incident,the attack was the culmination of a seven-part plan by Trump to overturn the election.

Many people were injured,including 174 police officers. Four officers who responded to the attack died by suicide within seven months. Damage caused by attackers exceeded $2.7 million.
