As much as “The Trojan Horse Affair” delves into a mysterious 2014 letter, it also delves into @HamzaMSyed’s experience as a Muslim journalist. “It’s who I am, it’s why I went into journalism, and I’m not gonna be shy about that,” he tells @mehdirhasan.

What’s NATO’s role in intervening in a possible Russian incursion in Ukraine? And if we’d listened to the warnings when then-President Bush pressed for Ukraine to get NATO membership in 2008, @mehdirhasan asks fmr. Amb. McFaul, could the crisis have been avoided?

Why have races for the top state election officials suddenly become so important? Because if the election deniers who are running win, says @mehdirhasan, “you won’t even need an armed insurrection to overturn the election result.”
