The future of the Build Back Better bill remains uncertain. Even if it passes, does it have enough climate change spending to keep the promises Pres. Biden is making at COP26? “We could probably come close to meeting our obligations,” @MichaelEMann tells @mehdirhasan

If we’ve reached the book-banning stage of American authoritarianism, why is there still so much complacency? “The more you ask people to lie, and the more you ask them to accept violence,” says @ruthbenghiat, "The more you have to give them a way to assuage their consciences.”

In Virginia, the GOP candidate for governor wants to give parents the power to decide what books are on the curriculum. While in Texas, Republicans want the government to hold that power. @mehdirhasan: “It’s almost as if the GOP is running two contradictory campaigns at once”

How is an agonizing month of Democratic infighting that results in a stripped-down version of the party's signature reform legislation... like cooking eggplant parm? You're not going to see anything else today like this exchange between @mehdirhasan and @econjared46.
