Washington is on high alert and under heavy guard after last week's attack on the U.S. Capitol. And now the House has impeached Pres. Trump, for a second time, will the Senate convict? Former Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson and Fareed discuss safety, security, and moving America forward. Cynthia Miller-Idriss discusses who the people in the Capitol mob are and what their motivations are. Then, with a flurry of last-minute diplomacy moves in China, Cuba, Yemen, and Iran, Secretary of State Pompeo has seen to it that Biden's transition in will not be easy. Susan Glasser tells what to make of it all. Finally, how can America's robust democracy be restored? Tim Snyder, one of the world's foremost experts on authoritarianism, explains what individual Americans can do.
