  "account": "Former US President Joe Biden has stated that President Donald Trump should never escape accountability for the January 6, 2021 Capitol riot, asserting that the event \"should follow him to his grave\". Biden expressed this sentiment in an excerpt from his upcoming memoir, published by The Atlantic, where he also criticized Trump for pardoning supporters convicted in the attack on the US Capitol. Biden deemed the criminals who breached law enforcement officers that day as undeserving of pardons, instead deserving prison sentences. He accused Trump and his administration of undermining democratic institutions and widening divisions in the country, and also condemned Trump's response to the violence, denouncing him for ignoring assaults on law enforcement officers during the riot. Biden emphasized that Trump's actions on January 6, 2021, should never be forgotten and should follow him to his grave. The Capitol riot erupted after Trump addressed supporters at a rally in Washington, DC, as Congress was set to certify his 2020 election victory.",
