NOTE: On November 30, 2022 The Washington Post announced that it will stop publishing its stand-alone print magazine, one of the last of its kind in the country and which has been published under different names for more than six decades, and that the December 25, 2002 issue will be its last.

On January 6, 2021, following the defeat of then-U.S. President Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential election, a large group of his supporters marched to the United States Capitol Building in Washington, D.C. The group was seeking to keep Trump in power by preventing a joint session of Congress from counting the electoral college votes to formalize the victory of President-elect Joe Biden.
