United States Congress
The junior senator from Missouri is not sorry mobs stormed the Capitol based on falsehoods he's helped propagate.
The proceedings are expected to conclude Wednesday evening with Joe Biden's 2020 election victory certified by Congress.
Republicans are now the minority in both chambers of Congress.
On the urging of Donald Trump, Republicans in Congress objected to certification of state election results. They will fail, but hurt democracy in the process.
WHAT'S HAPPENING
Here’s what will happen when Congress counts the Electoral College votes.
"Congress has only a narrow role in the presidential election process. Its job is to count the electors."
Current and former GOP officials warned that attempts to challenge Joe Biden's win "only serve to undermine Americans’ confidence" in the election results.
The effort to subvert the will of voters is forcing Republicans to make choices that will set the contours of the post-Trump era and an evolving GOP.
The current president looks at "historic victories." The president-elect says the U.S. will be much "stronger" in 2021.
Senators will be back at it Wednesday as Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is devising a way out of the political bind.
