SCOTUS will hear arguments on a legal theory that gives legislatures unchecked power in federal elections, fueling calls to expand the court.
"The public knows something is wrong," @OfficialMLK3 says. "The time is now."

Far-right leaders like Giorgia Meloni try to mask their anti-Semitism by saying they're pro-Israel.
"There’s no ideological contradiction between not liking the Jews in your own country and really liking particularly right-wing Israeli governments,” @PeterBeinart says:

The GOP sharing a clip of Italy's Giorgia Meloni slamming “financial speculators” is “problematic,” @PeterBeinart says.
“Financial speculator is not actually a term about a certain economic profession,” he tells @mehdirhasan, but "a coded way of talking about…Jewish people.”

.@mehdirhasan sounds the alarm on Italy's Giorgia Meloni — and how the GOP has embraced her.
It shouldn’t shock us that the far-right leader of a party that descends from Mussolini’s fascism is using the same rhetoric… but it should scare us.

When will the 1/6 panel hold its last hearing? It remains to be seen—but it could be right before November's elections.
And if it is, expect to see how Republicans “still pose a threat to democracy,” @hugolowell says. “That’s quite a compelling message ahead of the midterms.”

How much of the GOP’s obsession about “law and order” is about race?
“As someone who played in that game … it’s all about fear. And much of that fear is racist,” @WalshFreedom tells @mehdirhasan. “And that’s where Democrats need to punch back.”

Democrats have run from the GOP's “soft on crime” label for 50+ years.
“If you’re defending yourself, you’re losing,” @MollyJongFast says. “It’s better for Democrats … to be able to control the narrative. And that’s something they have never been super interested in doing.”

“We’re done rolling over and just trying to ignore it. … That playbook is gone.”
@kurtbardella tells @mehdirhasan it’s about time we see Democrats, starting with President Biden, stop “tak[ing] the higher road” and call out Republicans for their hypocrisy:

For decades, the GOP branded itself as the party of “law and order” while calling Democrats “soft on crime.”
The thing is, in many cases Republicans are the ones actively embracing people accused of committing awful crimes – with no consequences. @mehdirhasan has the receipts:

We’ve told you about Giorgia Meloni, Italy's likely next prime minister and whose far-right party descended directly from Mussolini’s.
But when it comes to fascists and anti-Semitism, is Meloni any different? @PeterBeinart discusses with @mehdirhasan tonight on @MSNBConPeacock.

Republicans love to call themselves the party of “law and order” and Democrats “soft on crime,” but that’s not the reality.
It’s time for Dems to expose this hypocrisy — and @MollyJongFast, @WalshFreedom & @kurtbardella join @mehdirhasan to discuss. Tune in on @MSNBConPeacock!

A speech from far-right Italian leader Giorgia Meloni attacking "financial speculators" is captivating the GOP. Don’t be fooled, @PeterBeinart says — that's code for “a certain ethnic or national group: the Jewish people.”

As Giorgia Meloni prepares to become Italy's next prime minister, Republicans had a choice: side with U.S. officials or right-wing opponents of democracy abroad.
They did not choose wisely. (via @MaddowBlog) msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show…

In the decade since DACA was introduced, hundreds of thousands have taken advantage of the program. But soon, it could be gone.
@mehdirhasan urges lawmakers — especially Republicans — to create a pathway to permanent legal status for DREAMers: “It is past time to get it done.”

“We have to put pressure on Congress,” @brunasollod tells @mehdirhasan. “They have to feel the heat.”
