2 years ago today, N.Z.'s leader loudly renounced a white nationalist shooter who killed 51 people in Christchurch. But here, “The GOP has been propping up and embracing white nationalism and white nationalist violence for a very long time,” @AndyBCampbell tells @mehdirhasan.

Yesterday, we posted a clip of @MehdiRHasan's conversation with @WHCOS about whether it's time for President Biden to support filibuster reform. The video of part of Ron Klain's answer was cut off. Here's the full clip:

The WH & Cong. Dems were able to use the budget process to get the stimulus passed by a simple majority. For the rest of their agenda, they face the hurdle of clearing a 60-vote threshold. If @MehdiRHasan is glass half empty about that, let’s call @WHCOS glass half full:

With a report that Cuomo’s vaccines czar was calling NY county officials to gauge whether they still supported him, @ZephyrTeachout says it’s “so important” that the gov. resign. “He’s basically trading the interests of the people of NY against him trying to hold on to power.”

The billionaire who’s profited more during the pandemic than anyone else on Earth is now casting doubt on the safety of the second covid jab. @MehdiRHasan says you should pay about as much attention to @elonmusk as you should a screaming toddler. Start the clock!:

“Abbott is just looking for a scapegoat,” @JulianCastro tells @MehdiRHasan, “he’s making this up.” Who is the Texas Gov. looking to blame for what Castro says is an expected surge now that the TX mask mandate is gone? Let’s just say it’s not the ‘China virus’ any more:

“It seems like it could be the end of the Reagan era,” @MehdiRHasan says about the passage of Biden’s $1.9T stimulus. Republicans may still want you to fear big government, but Mehdi is here to reassure you there’s nothing to be afraid of. WATCH:

A record number of unaccompanied minors are being held in border patrol facilities with reportedly crowded & hazardous conditions. “Of course it is an outrage and it’s unacceptable,” @WHCOS tells @MehdiRHasan, “so we are working night and day to increase that capacity.”

🤦 Our graph should show the change in economy between the *Bush* and Obama administrations, Clinton was not president in 2008.
Let’s take a few minutes with @mehdirhasan to remember all the brave Republicans who voted against Barack Obama’s 2009 stimulus bill, then took credit for its infusions of cash in their districts. Why? Oh, no reason. No reason at all. (Cough cough Roger Wicker cough cough) WATCH:

The gun reform movement is “now larger than the National Rifle Association,” says @shannonrwatts. One reason: “I do think lawmakers are now more afraid of angry moms than they are of gun lobbyists.” (corrects quote)

“Our democracy has essentially been held at gunpoint,” @shannonrwatts of @momsdemand says of armed insurrectionists and gun-toting protests that have proliferated nationwide: “This is sort of a logical outcome of allowing the gun lobby to write our nation’s gun laws for so long.”

.@mehdirhasan asks NY Assembly member @yuhline how much responsibility the state’s Dems bear for Andrew Cuomo. “It's on the party, but it's also on the culture of Albany,” she says, adding that Cuomo sought a carve-out for state workers in a 2019 workplace harassment law:

“I'm even more convinced than ever that we should get rid of the filibuster,” Sen. @AlexPadilla4CA tells @mehdirhasan. Some who disagree say Dems will miss the filibuster if they end up back in the Senate minority; Padilla says, “That's a chance I'm willing to take.”

It's one of the most popular pieces of legislation in America. Today, the House passed it again. So why will it face an uphill battle in the Senate? @shannonrwatts joins @mehdirhasan to discuss common-sense gun reform at 7 p.m. ET on @peacockTV and live: youtube.com/I835IKlVCms
