Yesterday, the House select committee investigating the January 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol held its first prime time hearing. Two Michganders were among the voices heard. They talked about why they came to the Capitol in support of then-President Donald Trump. There’s a lot going on in public hearings of this nature. And today we want to unpack some of it.

GUEST:

Jennifer Selin, co-director of the Washington Office of  Wayne State University’s Levin Center for Oversight and Democracy
