On the day that the mob stormed the Capitol — a siege that included a banner copying the “Title of Liberty” used by the Book of Mormon’s Captain Moroni — a church spokesperson pointed to a sermon at October’s General Conference by Dallin H. Oaks, first counselor to President Russell M. Nelson, in which he stated that the church would oppose any post-election unrest.
