The United States on Wednesday saw a Trump rally outside of Congress descend into chaos as supporters broke through police barricades and entered into the famous US Rotunda Capitol building.

Who exactly were these Trump supporters and do they pose a further threat to the incoming Biden administration?

Author Talia Lavin penned the book 鈥楥ulture warlords - My Journey into the Dark Web of White Supremacy'. She told us more about the different ideological groups that were seen at the rally such as members of the far-right and QAnon.
