A year after MAGA besiegers tried to overthrow our democracy, Greg Olear talks to the Guardian’s Congressional correspondent, Hugo Lowell, about the January 6 House Select Committee, the insurrection’s key players (Bannon, Stone, Flynn, Meadows, etc.), Trump’s motives, and what to expect in the months to come. Plus: a gift for the guy who has everything.
