Honestly with Bari Weiss - Investigating January 6th: The Price Liz Cheney Paid

A year ago today, something big happened in Washington. Was it a coup? Was it an insurrection? Was it “the worst attack on our democracy since the civil war,” as Joe Biden said? Who is responsible? Should the former president of the United States, Donald Trump, face criminal charges?

We explain how and what's being done about it.
