President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr. on Thursday described President Donald Trump’s supporters who stormed the Capitol building on Wednesday as “a riotous mob, insurrectionists, domestic terrorists.”

Biden warned that the President of the United States is not above the law.

He also introduced other DOJ members, including the Deputy Attorney General.
