"To turn around and do this great service for your neighbors, and be subject to violent death threats by people repeatedly...is disgusting," @nseufot says. "This is not a victimless crime."
“It is disgusting that Shaye and her mother, Lady Ruby, have been subjected to credible threats of death,” @nseufot tells @mehdirhasan. “I'll tell you this...These women are heroes. They put their lives on the line — and I don't think that's what they signed up for."

Critics of modern monetary theory — which argues we can always print more $$ — say it's a recipe for runaway inflation, and charge that Biden’s stimulus plan helped get us here.
@stephaniekelton counters the American Rescue Plan was, in fact, “a recipe for runaway recovery”:

Inflation is at a 40-year high. Interest rate hikes could be coming. But, @mehdirhasan asks, how much will that really help to clamp down on inflation?

This Juneteenth, @mehdirhasan asks @DrIbram: How should we teach kids about the holiday?
“We can teach young people that people were forced to work,” he says. “We can also teach those very kids that those people, who were forced to do that, constantly resisted.”

Everything’s bigger in Texas. And also, it seems, more extreme. I mean, have you seen the new platform from the Texas Republican Party? As @mehdirhasan says, “It’s bonkers!” Feels like it’s time for a 60-second rant. Start the clock!

Tuesday's 1/6 hearing will focus “not only how close we came to a bigger crisis than the one that we saw, but that the seeds have been planted for this to happen again,” @kyledcheney tells @mehdirhasan. “These parties have been seeded with people who are beholden to Trump."

Gianforte echoes Cruz with his "lavish foreign vacation in the middle of an unprecedented crisis while rural voters in his red state are left behind to suffer."
"No one has more contempt for ordinary Republican voters than elected Republican leaders," @mehdirhasan says. ICYMI:

The lessons of Ted Cruz’s Cancun fiasco seemed obvious. Perhaps Montana Gov. Greg Gianforte wasn’t paying close enough attention. (via @MaddowBlog) msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show…
