Submit ReviewToday on Boston Public Radio: We open lines to talk with listeners about anxiety related to last week’s storming of the Capitol, and the troubling possibility of similar attacks ahead of President-elect Biden’s inauguration. NBC Sports Boston reporter and anchor Trenni Kusnierek discusses Patriots coach Bill Belichick’s decision not to accept the Presidential Medal of Freedom from President Trump, Sen. Kelly Loeffler’s future with her WNBA team, The Atlanta Dream, and whether the postponed-2020 Summer Olympic Games will need to be held off again this summer. Boston Globe Editor-in-Chief Brian McGrory talks about his reaction to last week’s riot at the Capitol building, and coverage of the chaos from the Boston Globe's Jazmine Ulloa. He also touches on Bill Belichick’s decision not to accept the Presidential Medal of Freedom, and Boston Mayor Marty Walsh's acceptance of President-elect Biden’s nomination for labor secretary. Boston City Councilor and mayoral candidate Michelle Wu discusses Mayor Walsh being nominated for labor secretary, and whether it'll impact her own campaign for city mayor. She also responds to Harvard University's Tuesday decision to cut ties with Rep. Elise Stefanik, and talks about her vision for city police reform. Food writer Corby Kummer talks about recent federal and state stimulus packages, and whether they’ll be enough to support restaurants struggling through the pandemic. He also discusses New York Times reporting about animal cruelty at U.S. dairy farms. CNN’s John King responds to President Trump's Tuesday dismissal of his own role in last week's riot in the Capitol building, and discusses the state of Congress’ impeachment of the president.

We close out Tuesday’s show by opening lines, talking with listeners about whether an inauguration ceremony could be held safely in light of last week’s attack on the Capitol building.
