Joe Biden once pledged to make the Saudi government a "pariah" over its human rights record. Now, he's close to a security pact with the Saudis. @ChrisMurphyCT says the U.S. needs to "walk the walk" when it comes to defending democracy and human rights.

“I see both potential benefits to U.S. security from an agreement like this, but also real risks.” @ChrisMurphyCT tells @mehdirhasan why he has concerns about a “mega-deal” with Israel and Saudi Arabia, and the security agreement between the U.S. and Saudis that’s part of it.

When Trump suggested executing General Milley, it was one instance of many recently where Republicans encouraged political violence. @JoeNBC: "Are we free to say this is approaching a fascist sort of ideology?" @mehdirhasan: "It's not approaching. We're beyond it."
