As the House panel investigating the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol gets under way with its hearings this month, Political Theater reaches into our archives for episodes that we hope will provide some valuable context: conversations with members of Congress, influential historians and what our own colleagues experienced that day.
Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., a member of the Jan. 6 committee, and filmmaker Madeleine Carter discussed Carter’s documentary, “Love and the Constitution,” which is about Raskin dealing with the death of his son from suicide amid the attack on the Capitol and his subsequent role as lead impeachment manager at the trial of former President Donald Trump.
