"The idea that Kevin McCarthy can say it is the Democrats who are raising the heat when people like [Rep. Greene] and 147 members of the Republican Party turned up the heat so much that there was an attempted coup at the Capitol... it is asinine. It is offensive.”

Pro-Trump lawyer Lin Wood, who called the 2020 election “stolen,” is under investigation for illegally voting in the 2020 election?
Color @AriBerman unsurprised: “It's always the people that scream the loudest about voter fraud, they’re the ones that end up committing it.”

Republicans nationwide are pushing laws to keep (mostly minority) voter turnout down. “What we're seeing is basically a fear of a multiracial democracy,” says @ProfCAnderson, and “a party that does not believe that African Americans are American citizens with the right to vote.”

You can’t “split the difference” with the GOP on Covid relief, @Austan_Goolsbee says: “I don’t think President Biden is gonna fall prey to that kind of logic.” @RBReich adds it’s “the height of hypocrisy” to have tax-cutting Republicans “claim that we can’t afford to do this.”

Don’t come at @RBReich with lofty talk of bipartisan compromise over a Covid relief bill and checks for Americans: “Bipartisanship is not the goal. The goal is helping Americans get through this crisis.”

“The loss from spending too much will be modest and easily fixed through monetary or fiscal action. The loss from spending too little is potentially catastrophic and would be concentrated among the people... hardest hit.”

Watch @RepJayapal's reaction to the news that Rep. Greene was meeting with House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy:
Sources confirm to @NBCNews that House GOP Leader McCarthy and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene are meeting regarding her controversial comments. "Simply not enough," @RepJayapal tells @mehdirhasan. "She should not be in Congress...this is a party of madness, it is a one-man cult."

“We have heard promises from both parties for a decade” on immigration, says @ErikaAndiola. Biden needs “to keep his promise” on reforming a broken system, she says. “I really hope that they use every tool at their disposal...without having to rely on the party of Trump.”

Law enforcement should not be dealing with drugs, says @Kassandra_Fred: “This is a health issue. We are in the middle of an enormous overdose crisis,” she says. “We cannot arrest our way out of this problem… we actually have to make our policy interventions reflect that."

A post-Trump civil war within the GOP? Spare us, says @mehdirhasan: “Liz Cheney was just as loyal as Matt Gaetz for most of the Trump presidency.” Don’t take it from Mehdi, take it from her:
