Incredible scene in Seoul tonight as President Yoon Suk Yeol’s supporters are storming the Seoul courthouse in response to his arrest. They are smashing the windows and vandalising the offices.
It’s been 4 yrs since Jan 6, when I went out to cover a huge pro Trump rally in Washington DC the day the 2020 election was to be certified by congress. We knew there were people who were planning for violence. Even so, I couldn’t have imagined that things would play out the way they did. A thread:
The aftermath of Hurricane Helene is still so palpable in places like Swannanoa, North Carolina. Two weeks ago I was there with a team of journalists for the @washingtonpost.com wapo.st/4grntoZ #northcarolina #hurricanehelene

Can anyone in Korea or expertise in Korean politics send me any articles or essays on comparing yesterday’s events to the last martial law in 1980? I’m looking for any analysis in Korean.
Smart commentary from Michelle, WaPo reporter living in Seoul
Michelle Ye Hee Lee@myhlee.bsky.social · 2y agoTimes like these prompt me to reflect on how my views have been so warped being a reporter in America.
