The GOP blames high gas prices on a lack of domestic oil production and “Biden’s war on American energy,” but in tonight’s 60-second rant @MehdiRHasan outlines the facts. Forget “Drill Baby Drill,” tonight it’s “Rant Mehdi Rant.” Start the clock!

.@SenWarren says "Today would be a great today to cancel student loan debt." She tells @mehdirhasan that "If the president canceled $50,000 in student loan debt, he could cancel the black-white wealth gap, for those with student loan debt, by 27 pts." It'd help tens of millions.

D.C’s reaction to high oil prices has been focused on drilling for more domestic oil, rather than finding ways to limit the use of it in the first place. ⛽️
@GhostPanther calls out leaders who “respond like it’s 1983,” saying it’s “disheartening.”

While many have said a no-fly zone over Ukraine isn’t feasible, is a ‘limited no-fly zone’ (something foreign policy experts have called for) a better option?

One of the most helpful things for Ukrainians rn? Information.
