The Covid-19 pandemic is over, right? I mean, that’s what the Biden administration said! So, @mehdirhasan wonders, how is it that this same administration is expanding Title 42 — a controversial Covid border policy invoked by Trump — after they tried to end it?

In the days since Brazil’s ‘copycat’ insurrection, we’ve learned lots of the organizing happened on Twitter, much like our own 1/6. Is the site protecting our freedom of speech, or paving the way for violence? Watch @drewharwell discuss w/ @mehdirhasan: peacocktv.com/mehdi

How can a pandemic be over…but also not over? The Biden administration can’t seem to make up its mind when it comes to Title 42 — and @ErikaAndiola and @ReichlinMelnick join @mehdirhasan to help break things down. Don’t miss their conversation on @MSNBConPeacock.

With wannabe authoritarian Gov. Ron DeSantis's war on campus free speech, "the temptation to want to leave Florida must be immense," @mehdirhasan says. Why stay? The students, @j_mcox says: "They need this information." Watch their full convo on @MSNBConPeacock.

“There are many younger academics who see this and say, ‘If I criticize Israel, this will be the end of my career.' That’s a terrible message for the Kennedy School to be sending,” @KenRoth tells @mehdirhasan about being denied a Harvard fellowship over his Israel criticism.

When Harvard denied a fellowship to an Israel critic, the free speech brigade was nowhere to be found. Why? Because, says @mehdirhasan, when it comes to standing for pro-Palestine or anti-Israel views on campus, there’s a curious and shameful silence.

.@mehdirhasan asks: Does our DOJ’s failure to hold 1/6 rioters to account contribute to the export of the ‘Big Lie’ abroad? “The message the U.S. is sending is, ‘Coup plotting works,’” @djrothkopf says. “We need to fix that if we don’t want it to spread...even more rapidly.”

“This isn’t a Brazilian story. This is a transnational story.” @VianaNatalia and @mehdirhasan discuss how far-right violence in Brazil and the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol aren’t just uncannily similar — they’re connected. WATCH:

For most of U.S. history, attacking the Capitol in an attempt to overturn an election seemed inconceivable, until it wasn’t. Two years later, it’s happened in another major democracy. As @mehdirhasan points out, the two failed coup attempts are eerily similar:

McCarthy’s deal with the GOP rebels left him with a weak speakership. @kurtbardella predicts he won’t even last one term. “The bill is always due with these people,” he tells @mehdirhasan. “The minute that McCarthy even thinks about not doing what they want, they’ll dump him.”
