This Is How Columbus And Ohio Officials Reacted To Pro-Trump Mob Storming The Capitol

Decorative Arts From The Tsars to the USSR

Sponsored by Decorative Arts Center of Ohio and their new exhibit Russian Decorative Arts from the Tsars to the USSR. From decades of collecting Russian decorative arts, commissioning works from USSR artists, and exploring Russia's vast territories, curator Michael Reese takes us on a visual journey through Russian history from the time of the tsars to the fall of the USSR. The exhibition paints a clear decorative picture of what it was like to live in Russia during those tumultuous times. Featured objects tell stories of wealth and poverty, political struggle, fashion, and religion. Click here for more details! 🇷🇺

Hello Thursday. Chelsea here.

Yesterday is a day that I think most of us will remember for the rest of our lives. What happened in Washington D.C. yesterday was shameful, embarrassing, infuriating, and unacceptable. We have so much work to do in this country and I know it's daunting to think about where to start. But we were promised a more perfect union and it's going to take all of us to build it.
