"Walker may be one of the most unqualified candidates to run for the United States Senate in the modern era. And yet, he could very easily win in November," @mehdirhasan says. "That’s where we are, folks.”
Herschel Walker tried to redeem himself after he stumbled while discussing the climate crisis last month. It did not go well. - @MaddowBlog on.msnbc.com/3QOoJFF

Georgia GOP Senate hopeful Herschel Walker says one bizarre thing after another. His latest head-scratcher? His rebuke of the new climate law: “Don’t we have enough trees?”
Walker may be "one of the most unqualified candidates" for Senate in recent memory, @mehdirhasan says:

How does the growing anti-vaxxer movement play into diseases like polio that we’ve previously been able to control?
“It’s actually pretty disastrous,” @AmmahStarr tells @mehdirhasan. “I cannot stress enough the damage that Covid anti-vaccine attitude is having and has had.”

.@jentaub says "an indictment could be coming" for Donald Trump:
“The walls have been closing in on Donald Trump for years,” she tells @mehdirhasan. “When you’re a white, wealthy, well-connected man...those walls move very, very slowly. But they’re getting closer and closer."

Trump’s team says WH documents at Mar-a-Lago were declassified. That's not the way it works, @mehdirhasan says, but what if it were?
"It doesn’t change the nature of the underlying information and the threat that it could pose to our national security," @AshaRangappa_ says.

Donald Trump and his cronies keep insisting, w/o evidence, that the ex-president declassified the docs seized by the FBI before he left office. So why isn’t he on right-wing media’s airwaves explaining himself?
“The truth is,” @mehdirhasan says, “he knows he has no defense.”

Former Austin City Council member @GregCasar's TX primary win broke the mold in more ways than one. And as a progressive House candidate in an increasingly purple state, the left might do well to study his playbook.
He joins @mehdirhasan on @MSNBConPeacock to discuss — tune in!

Far-right GOPers say lots of disturbing things. But there’s a troubling new trend in right-wing politics: a want to impose Christianity in the name of politics & nationalism.
@mehdirhasan asks: Just how dangerous is the rise of this movement in America? youtube.com/watch?v=tUq-h6l2…

Dr. Fauci became a household name during the pandemic. He didn’t get everything right and he faced heavy criticism. But he stayed, and he served.
After Fauci announced he’ll be retiring in Dec., @mehdirhasan says: "If any 81 y/o has earned a long-overdue retirement, Fauci has."

Last summer, Joe Biden promised action on an underreported problem: the ravages of long Covid.
But since then it’s been largely crickets from the Biden administration. @mehdirhasan asks: What happened?

Former Speaker John Boehner has recently become a vocal critic of Trump. Did Boehner’s past silence enable him?
“Certainly there were signs that things were going in a bad direction,” former Boehner aide Brendan Buck says. “Perhaps we should’ve taken them more seriously.”

Would a catastrophic Trump presidency have happened without mainstream and so-called “moderate” Republicans enabling it?
After all, top GOPers like ex-Speaker Paul Ryan proved time and time again that they didn't have the backbone to stand up to Trump. WATCH:

From Ron DeSantis, to Marjorie Taylor Greene & Doug Mastriano, there’s a troubling new trend in American far-right politics, @mehdirhasan says: the embrace of Christian Nationalist rhetoric. And it’s a growing threat.
