Republic of Broken Windows, 4 – John Nichols

Listen now:


Our short series of essays on a most turbulent week in the story of the Republic of the United States of America may be coming to an end. Time will tell. On Sunday, National Guard units were posted at state capitols around the country. Nothing bad happened. 25,000 more members of the National Guard have been posted around Washington DC ahead of Wednesday to ensure an absolutely peaceful transition of power. While inspiring pride, it will yet be a hauntingly sad day, doubly robbed of the joy of the people by a global pandemic and the long shadow of the ransacking of Congress on January 6. Looking back, and forward, with me is the National Correspondent of The Nation magazine, JOHN NICHOLS.
