US Congress Formally Certified Joe Biden as the Next US President

The US Congress has formally certified Joe Biden as the next President of the US.  This came after the attack of Trump supporters on the US Capitol building.

Key Points

• The Senate and the House of Representatives successfully disapproved the claims of Trump and Republican and have finally given certification to Biden as the US President.
• After the confirmation of Biden’s 306-232 victory over Trump in November 2020 now the efforts of Trump and his loyalists to overturn the results have come to stop.
• After the certification, Trump, however, released a statement regarding the “orderly transition” on January 20.
• Trump also hinted that he will be active in politics and may run for the 2024 US elections.

Chaos at US Capitol Building

An angry mob and trump supporters attacked the US Capitol Building on January 7 which houses both the US House of Representatives and the US Senate.
