President Donald Trump has spent months stoking outrage among his supporters with false claims about election fraud. Yesterday, that anger exploded in a terrifying and chaotic scene at the U.S. Capitol. A mob of pro-Trump extremists breached police and stormed into the House and Senate chambers. On today’s episode, we’ll talk to a Democratic congressman who was in those chambers and a longtime Michigan Republican about what yesterday's events mean for the future of the Republican party, and for the country as a whole.  GUESTS: Congressman Dan Kildee, Democrat representing Michigan's 5th Congressional District Jeff Timmer, former director of Michigan's Republican Party, now a partner at Two Rivers Public Affairs and a senior adviser to the Lincoln Project   Stateside’s theme music is by 14KT. Additional music by Blue Dot Sessions. If you like what you hear on the pod, consider supporting our work. Looking for more conversations from Stateside? Right this way.
