Summary

Last Wednesday's MAGA insurrection may have been the end point for Trump's divisive rhetoric but is likely the beginning of a much wider war. Within the ranks of the rioters was a more hardcore group of extremists who were bent on finding and exterminating lawmakers driven into hiding inside the Capitol. Pictures show rioters clad in tactical gear and Kevlar vests carrying zip ties to round up Senators. That they probably had inside help is a chilling development only now being revealed. We speak with broadcast legend Soledad O'Brien on the future of journalism in the wake of the Capital Riot and Trump's disastrous tenure.
