.@libradunn was thrown into the spotlight in the weeks following the January 6 Attack on the Capitol. He told @CheyannaMarie97 he was there for one reason: to hear the truth.🧵⬇️
The Capitol Police officer’s testimony before Congress detailed the horrors he faced on Jan. 6, 2021, from facing down the mob’s deluge of racial hatred to wondering if he’d make it home alive that night.
“I wasn’t a big follower of politics,” Dunn said. “I didn’t know what the certification of an election was and all that stuff when I first started. As I got older and went along in making this my career, I started learning more.”

House Republicans are not only forecast to win control of the lower chamber in November’s midterm elections, they’re also poised to bring with them a roster of new Trump loyalists. @emilybrooksnews and @RealMikeLillis report.🧵⬇️
thehill.com/homenews/house…
A number of Trump loyalists have bumped off more moderate Republicans in the summer primaries — a list that grew longer this week with conservative victories in Florida and New York — while a number of other centrists are stepping into retirement. 2/ ➡️
The combination foreshadows a power shift in the House GOP that has the potential to complicate any bipartisan compromise with President Biden, while creating headaches for Republican leaders who will face pressure to demonstrate their governing chops in a new majority. 3/ ➡️
