Epstein files have sunk UK leader. Why not America's leader?

Our Prime Minister isn't even mentioned in the files yet Trump is in there 38,000+ times!

Goes without saying, but you should not pursue a career in filmmaking if your attention span is so shot that you can’t even sit through a feature film

As a former pastor, I can’t make this any clearer:

White Evangelical Christians are the source of everything afflicting our nation: all of this violence, chaos, dehumanization, and suffering...

Maybe electing a convicted felon white supremacist game show host into the White House for a second time was a bad idea?

"Worse than Bush after Katrina" is a polling benchmark that I thought that partisan polarization had made impossible
Pollster: 58% of Americans say Trump's second term has been a failure. A year into term number two, Trump's numbers look worse than any other president. Trump is even worse than George W. Bush after Katrina and a long period in the Iraq War. This is really, really bad.

Rep. @AOC: I understand that Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, and I do not. That is a fundamental difference between Vance and I. I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street.

I want to connect the dots.

The rush to call Renee Good a terrorist, the rewriting of Jan 6th - it's all part of Trump's campaign to use violence to protect his power.

A world in which our leader gets to shoot or attack us if we oppose him - that's a dystopia we cannot permit.

I know this feels impossible now, but I swear, on January 6 itself, there was a pretty broad bipartisan consensus that storming the Capitol to find and kill lawmakers was bad, and that Trump was responsible for inciting his followers to try it

I've watched thousands of videos from the Jan. 6 riot as part of NPR's reporting and archive project on that day.

Here are some of the lesser known videos that have really stuck with me.
