Hi there,

In this chaotic news cycle it may be tempting to tune out, but we hope you won’t—only an informed and engaged public can defend democracy. In these times of deep political polarization we need news that goes beyond play-by-play headlines, news that goes to the heart of each story by asking people to tell their own stories of abuses of power and injustice in their own words. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

WATCH: First Public Hearing of the House January 6th Committee

Special BroadcastJune 09, 2022

Tonight was the first public hearing of the U.S. House committee investigating Donald Trump’s attempt to overturn the 2020 election and the deadly January 6 insurrection at the Capitol. The primetime hearing came as five members of the far-right Proud Boys were indicted for seditious conspiracy.

“These hearings will provide voters with a choice between those who will want to continue to defend free and fair elections and those who want to take away the will of the people,” said Kristen Doerer, managing editor of Right Wing Watch, who joined Democracy Now! today and previewed what to expect.

Watch Friday’s show when we will feature highlights from the hearing.
