“I’m at a loss for words with the amount of racial hatred that was shown to our officers” on Jan. 6, @ltgrusselhonore says about the evidence revealed at today’s House hearing. The insurrectionists were “terrorists and they’re white nationalist racists.”

Technology has allowed the world to be more connected than ever. But as @mehdirhasan explains, it can’t let his parents hug their grandchildren, due to a continued travel ban.
“My kids can’t see their grandparents in the flesh, and no amount of technology can fix that.”

When it comes to ‘soft bigotry’ in Congress, “There’s explicit racism, which we clearly see from the Republican Party,” @JamaalBowmanNY tells @mehdirhasan, “And then there’s implicit bias that is practiced by many members of the Democratic Party through our policies.”

The divide among House Dems reflects shifting views on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
“We cannot sustain the safety and security of Israel while continuing to oppress the Palestinian people,” @JamaalBowmanNY tells @mehdirhasan. “That cannot happen.”

The Delta Variant is fueling a pandemic of the unvaccinated. Some GOP governors are now asking people to get the shot, but is it too late? “It’s like being on the Titanic, offering people life vests as the boat goes down, and having them refuse to take it,” @GovCTW says:

Gen. Mark Milley reportedly warned Trump not to strike Iran, “You’re gonna have a f*****g war”. Should Iranians be outraged over Trump’s actions? @USEnvoyIran tells @MehdiRHasan “The verdict is clear, it just invited more trouble rather than de-escalating tensions.”

Given the U.S. pulled out of the Iran nuclear deal first, shouldn’t we be the first to extend the olive branch and rejoin? “We said very clearly we are prepared to come back into the deal if they’re prepared to do their part,” @USEnvoyIran tells @MehdiRHasan

The Delta Variant surge has some Republicans, like Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey, rethinking their vaccine messaging. But @MehdiHasan asks, is it too little, too late, from these Southern governors?

When former GOP Rep. BarbaraComstock was in office, she had a 98% record of voting with Trump’s priorities. @MehdiRHasan asks if she regrets not speaking out sooner? “I am a conservative Republican also…The policies that I voted on are Republican policies,” she said.

Ben and Jerry's decision to pull their business out of occupied Palestinian territories inspired some interesting reactions. As @mehdirhasan points out in tonight's #MiniRant: "It's either no to the ice cream or yes to apartheid." Start the clock!
