In an awe-inspiring display of nature’s raw power, lightning struck the iconic U.S. Capitol building on New Year’s Eve as the nation bid farewell to 2024 and welcomed 2025.
Lightning strikes on the U.S. Capitol building in Washington, D.C., are rare but not unheard of. The Capitol is equipped with lightning protection systems, including lightning rods, which are designed to safely channel electrical energy into the ground.
The lightning strike comes at the end of a year marked by political division, economic uncertainty, and growing dissatisfaction with Biden’s leadership. Many conservatives view the event as an ominous sign—perhaps even divine intervention.
