When 300 classified documents were found at Mar-a-Lago, Republicans didn’t seem to care. But with a special counsel looking at files found in Biden’s home and office, it’s a big scandal?
@mehdirhasan sets the record straight on how Trump's situation is different—and much worse.

Aaron Reichlin-Melnick: "Asylum is a human right. It is a right enshrined in our laws. And we have to keep getting away from this myth that if we just crack down hard enough people will just not flee when their lives are at risk." on.msnbc.com/3ZsnfWt

Amid a sharp rise in anti-trans rhetoric online — and especially on Twitter since Elon Musk’s takeover, @HHS_ASH says “we want to affirm those youth [and] we want to empower them.”
“We’re going to do everything we can to support the LGBTQI+ community,” she tells @mehdirhasan.

“I’m not purposefully trying to be alarmist. But in the face of a pandemic that *is not over,* complacency is almost as bad as alarmism.”

.@mehdirhasan: Does U.S. media know how to cover today’s GOP?
“Media’s role…is not to just stand by and be objective, but to tell the truth,” @nayyeroar says. “But the damage has already been done when objectivity ended up being code for a white, male, Christian perspective.”

Kevin McCarthy's first order of business isn’t governing — it’s revenge. But make no mistake about his vow to purge three Democrats from their committees, @mehdirhasan says: Only one party actually cares about addressing hatred within its ranks, and it definitely is not the GOP.

"Ron DeSantis and his conservative cadre of ‘reeducation ministers’ don’t want these institutions to be better. They want them to be theirs. And to do it, they are willing to destroy higher education."

When your governor has declared a war on "woke" education, why, as a teacher, would you want to stay in Florida?
“The students...they need this type of education,” UCF professor @j_mcox tells @mehdirhasan. “We know that they’re not getting accurate or full accounts of history.”

From phony election police to a war on science, @mehdirhasan has told you all about the many far-right authoritarian dangers posed by Ron DeSantis.
But now, Florida's GOP governor is scaring teachers out of teaching. And Mehdi’s calling this what it is: an attack on democracy.
