A year later, here’s what I experienced on Jan. 6:
My day began as any day does for me. I planned to work overnight and help the CNN team with our coverage of the session to certify the election results. (Thread!)
My first photo of the day was this picture I snapped of then-Vice President Mike Pence entering the House chamber. (Not the best quality so I never posted it before)

At her last event of the day, @ewarren tells the audience (in response to a question on engaging in the political process) at the Creative Visions, Des Moines NAACP & Urban Dreams block party in Des Moines, Iowa that she has "a very diverse team." (1/2)
Warren: "I have a very diverse team. & I mean diverse in every meaning of that word. Because I want people who are invested, who come from different experiences, when we sit down at the table to talk about what we can do & where we could make a difference & how we could do it."

Good evening from Dubuque, where @ewarren is holding her second town hall today.
First question is what she will do to tackle the national debt.
“It’s the basic idea that trickle down economics is a monumental failure and it’s time to call it out for what it is.” @ewarren Q from an audience member for @ewarren: "My question for you is, why should I give up things that I hold dear that I teach my children about — that I share common beliefs with my fellow Christians things — like ending abortion, traditional marriage, and religious freedoms."
