Books like Unthinkable by Jamie Raskin


Jamie Raskin recounts the devastating loss of his son, Tommy, who died by suicide in December 2020, and how that grief intersected with the violent storming of the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. Returning to Congress that day, Raskin was thrust into a historic impeachment effort against President Donald Trump, who he held responsible for inciting the insurrection. Through a detailed inside look at the Senate trial and the bipartisan voting that followed, the book examines the toll of political violence, the responsibilities of elected officials, and the personal resolve required to safeguard American democracy.
