US politics updates: Donald Trump’s Twitter account permanently suspended due to ‘risk of violence’

Getting back to my experience on Jan 6th…

I’m seeing all your questions! I promise I’ll get to a few in a minute here.

First, I want to share what I heard from one rallygoer, a woman named Jamie Hickox. Rather than pick and choose quotes or paraphrase someone’s beliefs, I’m going to give you the transcript in full. No one single conversation could capture the range of beliefs I encountered, but this interview feels somewhat representative of how people were feeling before the insurrection and what sort of points surfaced.

I caught Jamie walking over to the Capitol, roughly 10 minutes after Donald Trump stopped speaking and 20 minutes before the rioters broke in. She was definitely towards the back of the crowd, so I have no reason…
