Unlike so many covering January 6th and its aftermath, I’ll be completely upfront about my biases. I handled press for the President’s speech at the Ellipse on January 6, 2021. I have watched as the government, the media and the criminal justice system have worked tirelessly to destroy so many associated with January 6th – whether they entered the Capitol or not.
It’s why January 6th is so personal to me and its why I so eagerly agreed to cover Ashli Babbitt’s mother’s press conference today.
