Just a brutal, astonishing account from the great @phscoop about what happened when D.C. police officers responded to a pro-Trump mob attacking the Capitol
No public appearances with remarks from the AG or FBI director. The president hasn’t appeared on camera since Thurs. Capitol Police haven’t held a single briefing. DHS secretary just stepped down. All since a mob just stormed the Capitol, leaving far more questions than answers

Thank you to @PostKranish for pointing this out to me and reminding me I gotta up my breakfast game
