There is a sense of shock after a mob of Donald Trump supporters stormed the US Congress. Daniel Lipmann of the news website Politico discusses the mood in Washington after a tumultuous 24 hours. The 大象传媒's Michelle Fleury explains how US business leaders have responded. Multiple social media sites have imposed a suspension on President Trump's accounts, and social media specialist Jonathan Pollinger tells us whether the companies are now likely to come under greater pressure to exercise more control over content shared on their platforms. Meanwhile, Joe Biden's presidential victory has been certified by Congress, and we get a sense of what his approach to the US economy might be in the months ahead from Jason Furman, who is former chair of President Obama's council of economic advisers. Plus, we consider the future of the Republican party, with Kate Andrews of The Spectator, who also worked on the party's campaign to get Mitt Romney elected president in 2012.
