How much more Trump-related trauma can the country endure?
“Well, unfortunately we have no choice,” @MaryLTrump tells @MehdiRHasan. But she warns not holding him accountable will “lead to more division and I believe the end of American democracy.”

The far-right WI Supreme Court justices who just banned most drop boxes, compared their use in elections to totalitarian regimes in North Korea, Cuba, and Syria. It’s absurd.
“And if you think this is just a Wisconsin problem,” says @MehdiRHasan, “Think again.” WATCH:

“Dem voters are desperately looking for action, not empty rhetoric or resignation,” @mehdirhasan says. And while CA Gov. Newsom is “far from perfect,” he adds, “as we watch our rights slowly being chipped away … Dems in Washington and beyond should take note.”

Herschel Walker reportedly lied to his team about his secret kids, the latest in a string of falsehoods.

There’s one resident of 10 Downing St. whose hold on power will remain steady after Boris Johnson’s departure. His platform? Anti-avian, anti-mice – Make Britain Feline Again! @mehdirhasan explains:

Democrats are in desperate need of a fighter. But right now, it’s stuck with establishment figures like Biden and Pelosi — people who have been on Capitol Hill so long that they can’t see the fundamental flaws in the system.
So, asks @mehdirhasan, how does the party fix that?

.@mehdirhasan: “How do you solve a problem like Marjorie Taylor Greene?”
“The problem is…Trump has birthed, like, a million mini-Trumps,” @MollyJongFast says. “What you would need, theoretically, is a grown-up in the room, and I just don’t see that in the Republican Party.”

The GOP's extremism shows “McConnell & the establishment might really be losing control,” @DavidJollyFL says.
“But," he adds, "what within our culture is elevating these people to successful positions when it is contrary & antithetical to American values?”

Marjorie Taylor Greene’s conspiracy-laden comments about the July 4 shootings in Highland Park and Philadelphia are just the latest bit of GOP extremism.
It’s hard not to become numb to these ghastly statements and baldfaced lies. @mehdirhasan explains why we can't:

It’s clear that Democrats need some fresh blood. But how do you get those new voices and bold ideas into the party?
This NY House race could have the answer — and candidate @yuhline joins @mehdirhasan on tonight's show to argue why she fits the bill. Watch on @MSNBConPeacock!

British PM Boris Johnson is embroiled in his latest scandal. "Normally, that would be humiliating, but...[he's] not a normal politician, just in the way that Donald Trump is not a normal politician,” @freedland tells @mehdirhasan: “It is very hard to shame the shameless.”

The right has a weird obsession with blaming mass shootings on drug use - specifically, marijuana. And while we shouldn’t need to fact-check that claim, @jillkpeterson sets the record straight once and for all: “You do not see patterns there with pot use.”

It shouldn’t shock you that the suspect in the mass shooting at a Fourth of July parade in a Chicago suburb was a young white man, @mehdirhasan says. That description falls right in line with a recent pattern seen in cities across the U.S.:

Big news in D.C. — Former WH counsel Pat Cipollone will testify before the 1/6 panel.
But don’t let that distract you from Georgia, says @mehdirhasan, where Trump seems at serious risk of being charged with multiple crimes over the phone call we remember all too well:

We’ve all seen Trump wriggle out of a scandal. Allow us to introduce you to the British version of Teflon Don: Boris Johnson.
The PM has weathered many scandals, but this is his most serious yet. @freedland discusses with @mehdirhasan on @MSNBConPeacock.
