Among the horde of far-right extremists who breached the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday afternoon, one man wore a hoodie that probably looked a little familiar. Featuring an arc of utility-chic font atop a simple graphic, it mimicked a ubiquitous sartorial trend: the destination sweatshirt that advertises summer camps or vacation hot spots.

Sen. Chuck Schumer, the New York Democrat poised to take over as the Senate’s first Jewish Majority Leader, on Thursday called on Vice President Mike Pence to invoke the 25th amendment in order to remove President Donald Trump from power.

Watching the scenes of violence unfold in the United States Capitol on Wednesday from the United Kingdom was a surreal experience — but not an entirely shocking one.
