The White House used the fifth anniversary of the Capitol riots on Jan. 6, 2021, to publish an alternate history of the events, which insisted that President Donald Trump did not attempt to overthrow the 2020 presidential election by inciting violence.
White House Communications Director Steven Cheung promised “all the facts” as he announced the new White House website on Tuesday. But instead, the site presented a distorted view of history.
“The Democrats masterfully reversed reality after January 6, branding peaceful patriotic protesters as ‘insurrectionists’ and framing the event as a violent coup attempt orchestrated by Trump—despite no evidence of armed rebellion or intent to overthrow the government,” the website claimed. “In truth, it was the Democrats who staged the real insurrection by certifying a fraud-ridden election.”
The website also paints former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) as personally responsible for allowing a riot to break out at the Capitol. A rioter who was killed while trying to breach the House chamber was “murdered in cold blood,” the site claimed.
“Zero law enforcement officers lost their lives,” it said, downplaying the violence against Capitol Police officers.
“Vice President Mike Pence, who had the opportunity to return disputed electoral slates to state legislatures for review and decertification under the United States Constitution, chooses not to exercise that power in an act of cowardice and sabotage,” Trump’s White House complained. “Instead, Pence presides over the certification of contested electors, undermining President Trump’s efforts to address documented fraud and ending any chance to correct the election steal.”
The history ended with Trump’s “triumph over tyranny.”
“Despite relentless Deep State efforts to imprison, bankrupt, and assassinate him—all designed to sabotage his political comeback through fabricated indictments, invasive raids, and rigged show trials—President Trump emerges triumphant,” the fairytale conclusion said. “Fueled by unbreakable resolve, the fierce loyalty of his courageous family, team, and Patriotic Americans, and God’s unmistakable grace, he delivers a landslide 2024 victory and reclaims the White House in the greatest comeback in American History.”
