.@mehdirhasan pushes ex-GOPer Jim Hendren on why he only left the party this year: "Kids in cages, Trump praising neo-Nazis...telling Ilhan Omar and AOC to go back to their countries...none of those made you think 'I can't be part of this anymore'"?

Andrea Sahouri was acquitted today, but her arrest for reporting on a protest "was just a farce at every level," says ex-colleague @jasonnobleIA. "The role of journalists is to hold the powerful to account. And in a democracy the powerful cannot use their power to stifle that."

Lawmaker @JimHendren1 left the GOP after the Capitol insurrection, but he reluctantly voted Trump in 2020. "We see choices where we have a far-right extremist on the Republican side," he tells @mehdirhasan, "versus a Democratic candidate who does not represent the values at all."

What’s really going down on the border? @jacobsoboroff traveled to Mexico to get the on-the-ground truth from activists…as well as migrants from many countries who have been waiting up to two years to gain U.S. entry. One aid worker tells him: "Not much has changed since Trump."

What would happen, @mehdirhasan asks, if Biden drastically cut military spending?
"Republicans call him weak on defense?
We get drawn into a long, costly overseas war?
Someone tries to attack the Capitol?
We've already proven that a $700 billion Pentagon can't stop any of that."

The time is now to press for a $15 minimum wage, abolish the filibuster, cancel student debt, and give Americans *regular, reoccurring* $2000 checks, @AyannaPressley tells @mehdirhasan: "For the past four years...we had an occupant, not a president. Now we have a president."

Biden's pushing a progressive agenda because progressive "black folk, AAPI, indigenous, disabled, queer [and] young people" got him elected, Rep. @AyannaPressley tells @mehdirhasan: "The most marginalized met the moment and made it possible for democracy to breathe another day."

.@ezralevin and his @indivisibleteam are pressuring Sen. Kyrsten Sinema to be more progressive: “She gave a thumbs down on the floor of the Senate” to the $15 minimum wage, and “that was a big middle finger to 800,000-plus working Arizonans and millions more across the country.”

"Put your signature on the [Covid] check," @StephanieKelton tells Biden & Dems. "Make it clear that voting for Democrats had material and immediate positive benefits to millions of people," while "the Republican Party is the ostrich party. They stuck their heads in the sand."

Why isn’t Congress up in arms over Republican Rep. Paul Gosar’s white nationalist overtures? “The silence is deafening, there's no doubt about it,” @RepJasonCrow tells @mehdirhasan. “The bottom line is we have some members of Congress...who are pretty depraved individuals.”

The latest rounds of recriminations about the Lincoln Project are “extremely troubling,” former colleague @DelPercioS tells @mehdirhasan. “I am very grateful that it existed and we did the work we did,” but “I don't know how it survives this.”

Start spreading the news: Donald Trump is back in New York City for the first time since leaving the White House. But as @MehdiRHasan explains, the Big Apple he returns to isn’t the same as the one he used to live in, in part because of his policies as president.
