| Dear Reader,
The presidency of Donald Trump has brought many unprecedented moments, but none has been as shocking as the events yesterday in Washington DC when a mob stormed the US Capitol. The biggest losers in all this, writes Tim Stanley, are Mr Trump himself and the Republican Party.
The day created a number of staggering images: armed security pointing their weapons through the smashed and barricaded doors of the House of Representatives, politicians in gas masks and huddling on the House floor, and Confederate flags being waved in the capital of the Union. In this piece, Robert Mendick takes you through the extraordinary day and the 25 most compelling images.
[The aftermath of the attack on Congress and the Democrats' dual victory in Georgia yesterday set up a historic next few weeks and months in Washington. Stay on top of it all by signing up to our new-look Letter from the USA newsletter.]
Finally, for those of us able to keep working through lockdown, it’s perhaps not surprising if the pressures of work and ambition have not subsided. For Eleanor Ross, a former freelance journalist, those forces nearly pushed her to end her life. In this moving piece, she writes about what drove her to the brink and how she has been able to recover and gain a new perspective on work.
Chris
