  • Trump calls Jan 6 a “day of love.” This bodycam footage shows otherwise.

    NPR interview segment with January 6th police officers: https://youtu.be/CvL4sXhGrYs

    On Jan. 6, 2021, 140 police officers were injured defending the U.S. Capitol from a violent mob of Trump supporters. Five years later, many still live with the physical and psychological damage from that day.

    NPR Investigations correspondent Tom Dreisbach sat down with two officers who defended the Capitol — Michael Fanone and Daniel Hodges — to watch their police body camera footage from Jan. 6. Both were subjected to some of the most brutal violence of the day, inside a tunnel where police were outnumbered by rioters armed with flagpoles, stun guns, crutches, stolen police shields and chemical sprays.

    Fanone, Hodges and other officers say that Trump’s mass pardon of Jan. 6 rioters has exacerbated the trauma of that day. Both Fanone and Hodges have received death threats, and been called “crisis actors.” But the footage from their body-cams shows the reality of what they experienced.

    Both videos come from NPR’s Jan. 6 archive, part of a long-term effort to preserve the historical record — a public database tracking every arrest, charge, verdict, and sentence related to the attack. In Dec. 2025, the archive expanded to include police bodycam, surveillance video and other courtroom evidence, making this material available for anyone to examine firsthand.

  • Started Pluribus, which has been intriguing. Only stopped last night because big day today and I had to actually sleep. 😁

    Watched the first episode of Fallout S2 and I think I’m done. It’s well produced, but I’m meh about continuing now. The show is just too close to this timeline. 😅

    I watched Buginia knowing it was a risk. Poor Things was weird as hell and I enjoyed it. I had hoped this would be similar, but I was really disappointed. I wish I would reframe the experience so that I could enjoy it in part, but… Ugh. Nope. It just wasn’t a good use of time. 🛸

    I finished Task which was a good watch. Ruffalo is great. I was worried when they introduced the child into the mix, but the Robbie character was a decent guy. Phew. 🚓

    Nobody 2 was what I expected. Just dumb amusement. Wouldn’t recommend it, but not bad. 🔫

    Started Fiona and Cake now that S2 is out. Oh how I love these cartoons. 💜
