To critics who accuse her of anti-Semitism, @RashidaTlaib says "I want everyone in Israel [and] Palestine to…live in peace."
But "if you are violating human rights, if you are targeting a whole people based on their faith," she adds, "you will hear by this member of Congress.”

In just 4 years, Kash Patel went from obscure Hill staffer to key Trump WH figure subpoenaed over 1/6. But he’d rather be known for writing a kid's book about the Russia probe (yes, you read that right).
It’s called "The Plot Against the King" — want to guess who the king is?

If Dems can’t count on the support of Rep. Henry Cuellar in a reliably blue district, @JCisnerosTX asks, then why is Speaker Pelosi endorsing him?
“I just want House leadership to know that they’ll have a much better partner with me,” she tells @mehdirhasan.

When it comes to acts of violence motivated by hate, @JCisnerosTX says “anti-Black and anti-people of color rhetoric is dehumanizing and dangerous.”
“It’s our communities that are being put on the front lines,” she adds. This rhetoric “[puts] a target on our backs.”

Despite a Trump-friendly voting record and anti-abortion views, TX Rep. Henry Cuellar still has the backing of the Dem Party — which says it wants to protect abortion rights — as he faces @JCisnerosTX in a battle for his seat.
"Doesn't really make sense to me," @mehdirhasan says

With a very white media elite, @mehdirhasan asks @Deggans: has much of the industry dismissed the threat of bigotry on Fox News simply because it doesn’t affect them?

Only the alleged gunman is responsible for the deadly shooting in Buffalo. But make no mistake, @mehdirhasan says, the Murdochs enabled hosts on Fox News who regularly suggest their viewers are the targets in a race war:

Despite a pro-Trump voting record & anti-abortion views, Rep. Henry Cuellar still has the backing of House Dem leaders as he battles @JCisnerosTX for Texas’ 28th district.

‘Succession’ centers on the corrupt worlds of media & politics. But how much of the show is a drama, and how much is a documentary on the Murdochs? Actor @jamesocromwell says, “It can’t be satire because it’s so accurate.”

Chinese Uyghurs have been suffering under extreme government rule for at least six years now. And now @nuryturkel tells @MehdiRHasan that the Biden Administration “can’t lose sight of the ongoing genocide in China.”

Some conservative pundits continue to spew the same racist talking points as right-wing terrorists. @MehdiRHasan asks, what would the reaction be if he and @AymanM echoed conspiracies from Muslim terrorists? WATCH:

As the GOP plans to limit abortion access if Roe v Wade is overturned, why aren't Democrats doing more to stop it? @SenTinaSmith tells @MehdiRHasan the issue is the slim majority in the Senate. "Democrats are fighting hard, there's just not enough of us."

“It’s clear they’re doing it purely for opportunism,” @PeterBeinart says in @MehdiRHasan in breaking down why so many former moderate Republicans have embraced the unhinged, racist conspiracy known as “Great Replacement Theory.”

The racist conspiracy known as "Great Replacement Theory" is now very much mainstream on the American right. That's largely thanks to a single cable host... WATCH:

Tucker Carlson, perhaps the most influential voice in U.S. media, has all but adopted "Great Replacement Theory" as his signature pet project. It's the same conspiracy that inspired the Buffalo shooter. @MehdiRHasan breaks down how Carlson and others normalized the idea. WATCH:

As the second anniversary of George Floyd’s murder nears, @mehdirhasan asks @WendellPierce what's changed.
“We had an awakening two years ago," he says. "It was going to be a window of time for us to advocate for a change. And like all windows, they open, but they also close.”
