“What this election should be this fall is: Democracy or dictatorship?” @BeschlossDC tells @mehdirhasan:
“One of the parties wants to protect your democracy. Another of the parties is, at best, indifferent or, perhaps, even wants to undermine it.”

Election deniers who believe the lie that Trump won are on several state ballots in November, seeking positions that will oversee future races and lay the groundwork for 2024.
"More evidence that democracy is on the ballot," @mehdirhasan says, "possibly for the last time."

“I don’t want to talk about postmortems,” Sen. Michael Bennet tells @mehdirhasan. “The democracy is at stake.”
"Democrats have a moral obligation to win seats," he adds. "Because if we lose them, we’re gonna lose them to people that don’t actually believe in the democracy.”

New polls are giving Dems hope in the midterms.
“The combined force of eviscerating women’s right to privacy in Roe and what the [1/6] committee has brought to the public…has provided a momentum," @RachelBitecofer says. "Now, it’s about what we do to tap in and enhance it.”

Sunday marks 100 days until what are, quite possibly, the most important midterm elections of our lifetimes, @mehdirhasan says.
And while history suggests that Democrats are in for a shellacking, the true picture is a little more complicated — and maybe not so bleak:

With about 100 days until the midterms, @BeschlossDC joins @mehdirhasan to discuss two key questions: What can Biden learn from his predecessors, and what will happen when historical precedent meets these unprecedented times?

How concerned should you be about monkeypox, and how is the U.S. is working to combat it? @mehdirhasan spoke to @arimoin and @thrasherxy about that and more: youtube.com/watch?v=91zcY_PT…

"If we start getting tangled up on 2024 and fail to pay attention to business in 2022, that's not only going to hurt us in 2022, it's gonna bite us on the rear end in 2024," Warren tells @mehdirhasan.
"We've got to stop the catnip about 2024." Senator Elizabeth Warren is not interested in entertaining hypotheticals about 2024 until 2022 is over and has properly set the context for 2024.

We all know Democrats face an uphill battle in the midterms. And as @mehdirhasan has pointed out, messaging is key heading into the fall.
There’s one group in Texas that’s been nailing it — and national Democrats could learn a thing or two from them. WATCH:

Some Republicans have taken a passive route in dealing w/ Trump. "Unfortunately, that's not how problems get solved," @MarkLeibovich says:
"Trumpism is the seed corn of the party," he tells @mehdirhasan. "At some point, they're going to have to deal with him...more directly."

A new book by @MarkLeibovich looks at Trump’s army of enablers. Among them: former House Speaker Paul Ryan, who made headlines for saying he was “sobbing” as he watched the 1/6 attack.
"I said, 'Mr. Speaker, are any of these tears of complicity?'" he recounts to @mehdirhasan.

There are plenty of Trump boosters haunting the halls of Capitol Hill. But Kevin McCarthy and Lindsey Graham didn't come to D.C. with the MAGA movement, @mehdirhasan says: "They had to contort themselves and, honestly, debase themselves to find their footing in the Trump era."

While anyone can get monkeypox, a disproportionate amount of cases are reported among men who have sex with men — a population that should be prioritized with vaccines, @thrasherxy says: "I would actually argue that we should think of it as a sexually transmitted infection.”

The WHO declared monkeypox a global health emergency in the hope of bringing awareness to the virus. But some health experts say it may already be endemic here in the U.S.
If that’s true, @mehdirhasan says, it will mark "yet another shameful and reckless failure" for America:

While Lindsey Graham and Kevin McCarthy didn’t come to D.C. on the Trump train, they contorted themselves to fit into MAGA World. And where would Trump be without them?
