Well well well, it seems Donald Trump's infamous quote from The Apprentice has come back to bite him on the bum...twice (side note, who gave a reality TV star the presidency and why?). This week, we again jump across the pond to the US to tackle the Capitol siege, Trump's subsequent impeachment and the upcoming Inauguration Day. We have brought back our resident American Benjy Renton for some punchy critique as well as a newcomer on the block, Alexis Arnold (spoiler: you are going to love her). Alexis gives us a lengthy explanation of the Capitol siege as well as her incredibly moving comparison of this riot to the BLM protests in June.
Thank you to Benjy and Alexis for their insight. If you want to hear more from Alexis (I know we absolutely do), follow her new podcast Journeys to Journos on Twitter @j2j_podcast, talking about making it as an American journalist.
