On Election Day 2024, the repercussions of the 2020 election riots by Donald Trump supporters continue to unfold. A man who was present at the Capitol on January 6, 2021, and later involved in an anti-government group, was sentenced to probation on Tuesday.
Fi Duong from Northern Virginia pleaded guilty to a civil disorder felony for entering the Capitol building while wearing all-black clothing and a mask. Post the attack, Duong hosted meetings at his residence where discussions on seceding from the US, making Molotov cocktails, and surveilling the Capitol took place. However, he did not face charges related to the group activities.
