On January 6, 2021, thousands of Trump supporters stormed the Capitol as Congress was meeting to confirm Joe Biden as the 46th U.S. President. Five people died and the nation plunged into chaos. Our brave guests--both writers--were on the ground to bear witness: Andrew Denny is a journalist who reported on the riot for Business Insider. Terry Bouton is an author and professor of history at UMBC. His Twitter thread on the event has over 100 thousand views. This is what they saw and heard, and what they believe it means for the future of our country.
