That little riot on Jan 6th intended to stop the certification of the votes for Joe Biden which is a necessary step for him to take office. So it did, weakly, represent a violent attempt to overthrow the incoming Biden administration.Doesn’t have to be violent. Usually, but not always,
And the little riot on Jan 6 was hardly an attempt to overthrow the government. It was a protest that, for a minority of people, got out of hand.
Nothing compared to the summer of Black Lives Matter rioting.
It was definitely illegal and definitely resisting the authority of the government.
How does that compare to impeachment? It doesn’t. Impeachments aren’t illegal.
