The transcript details the events surrounding the Capitol riot on January 6, 2021. It begins with President Trump urging Vice President Pence to reject the electoral votes, leading to a rally where Trump supporters are encouraged to march to the Capitol. As Congress convenes to certify Biden's victory, protesters breach the Capitol, causing chaos and a lockdown.
