#JAMIE RASKIN HEAD TRIAL#

Of the three, Raskin has been outstanding for the critical part he has played in analysing what happened on 6 January and demanding justice.

All of them the feature in a short documentary I recently made in Washington D.C.

#JAMIE RASKIN HEAD TRIAL#

Three Representatives in Congress are especially remarkable: Pramila Jayapal, chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus Ro Khanna, a vice-chair of Bernie SandersвЂ™ 2020 presidential campaign and Jamie Raskin, who led the impeachment trial of Donald Trump. But a less well-known generation is laying the foundation for AmericaвЂ™s future - if it is to have one that isnвЂ™t overseen by surveillance fascism. The outside world is familiar with media favourites like Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. With the system rigged against them, the Democrats will need a coherent, popular agenda, which means that there will have to be an alliance of the influential centrists with the emerging progressives.

Will the Democrats be able to prevent the return to the White House of Donald Trump or an authoritarian Republican with similar supremacist politics in 2024? We are at a turning point in Joe BidenвЂ™s presidency, as US politics heads towards the mid-term elections in November. As the congressional committee investigating the 6 January attack on the US Capitol begin a series of public hearings to present its findings, Byline Times is launching a short series of articles to introduce American progressives to a wider world.
