A federal courthouse isn't the national Capitol, and the courthouse wasn't targeted specifically because officials were present and inspired in part by public calls to execute particular officials and in part by a direct call by the a defeated candidate as part of an ongoing campaign to reverse election results.

No, in fact comparison of the events and the law enforcement responses is common in the media, even though the coup attempt is still portrayed as an unprecedented event. So the claim that the events of last summer are “ignored” by the media is simply false.
The admitted intent was to intimidate senators votes.
One event met resistance and and things escalated. The other saw federal agents kneel in support and open the doors.
