SCOTUS will hear a case that could hand more power over federal elections to state legislatures. If that’s how the court rules, it would "effectively legalize the coup attempt that Donald Trump made,” @mjs_DC says: “We should be very afraid of what the court will do with it.”

After a series of extreme, unpopular and unprecedented Supreme Court rulings, @mehdirhasan asks: “How will history remember this latest judicial roller coaster?”
“Frankly, history will remember this as the beginning of a conservative revolution,” @mjs_DC says:

On the same day history was made with Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s swearing-in, the Supreme Court issued a mixed bag of rulings, including — surprise! — a victory for Biden.
Will that save SCOTUS' crumbling legitimacy? Let’s not get ahead of ourselves, @mehdirhasan warns:

Former Sen. @DougJones says there’s “compelling evidence” from the January 6th committee that Donald Trump committed crimes against the United States. But, he says, “that is not the same as admissible evidence in a court of law.”

It doesn't take a genius to see the undeniable evidence laid out by the 1/6 panel. And while experts say there's enough to charge Trump with a crime, we aren’t hearing much from Merrick Garland yet.
So, @mehdirhasan asks, is it time to ask whether Biden picked the right AG?

Was Merrick Garland the right pick to lead the DOJ through this era in our democracy? Or would we have been better with someone who sees how damning a case the 1/6 panel has made?
@DougJones, who was on Biden’s shortlist for the AG role, joins Mehdi tonight on @MSNBConPeacock.

What can be done to counter an increasingly extreme SCOTUS? “Democrats can do a lot of things. They can get their butts out and vote,” @DougJones says.
“But that doesn’t change the Supreme Court," @mehdirhasan says.
Catch their full back-and-forth tonight on @msnbconpeacock.

The not-so-subtle insinuation from the right is that Cassidy Hutchinson’s testimony isn’t credible.
The legal reality is a lot more complicated. msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-opin…

“Without a doubt,” Ginni Thomas needs to testify in front of the 1/6 committee, @RinainDC says: “She was using her weight as the ‘best friend’ of a Supreme Court justice trying to get her way.” Watch:

If the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade, expanding gun rights, and eroding the separation of church and state seemed like a lot, buckle up. Because this conservative court isn't done issuing anti-democratic rulings just yet, @mehdirhasan says:

It’s the question we’ve all been asking: what’s going on with Merrick Garland?
“The committee is laying out such a trail of breadcrumbs here that it’s almost impossible, even for Merrick Garland – cautious though he is – for him to not follow up on this,” @brianfallon says.

Gen. Mike Flynn had to plead the 5th when asked if he backs a peaceful transfer of power.
“Imagine thinking you could be somehow incriminated...because you pretended to believe in the most basic principles of democracy,” @michelleinbklyn says. "It's pretty clear who [he] is."

.@RinainDC: "One thing we learned from Cassidy’s testimony is how fragile democracy is, and how it takes good, principled people to stop our most evil actors from doing what could really not just hurt us individually, but the country as a whole.”

Unsurprisingly, there’s been GOP pushback against Cassidy Hutchinson after her jaw-dropping testimony at Tuesday’s January 6th hearing. But there’s a lot the former White House staffer saw and heard firsthand from Trump and his inner circle that’s too damning to ignore. Watch:

Wherever we look in America, our democracy is under attack. And day after day, we keep learning just how close we came to losing it entirely on January 6th, 2021.
So, as @mehdirhasan says, “What are the Democrats going to do about it, and where, oh where is Merrick Garland?”

TONIGHT on @MSNBConPeacock: Cassidy Hutchinson’s testimony paints a stunning picture of what Trump and his allies knew and did on 1/6.
Experts say there’s enough to charge the former president. Will it happen? Mehdi asks @RinainDC, @brianefallon and @michelleinbklyn — tune in!

Cassidy Hutchinson’s testimony gave an insider’s view into Trump's actions around 1/6. How did it take this long for this evidence to come to light — and will it change any minds?

"The reality is that given the avalanche of evidence against Trump that the nation has seen at these hearings, Garland must charge Trump for his apparent crimes or risk undermining the very institutions he so desperately wants to protect."
