Republicans have spent decades attacking Democrats for being “soft” on national security. Yet, as @MehdiRHasan points out, they have remained largely silent on what perhaps could be one of the biggest national security threats facing our country today: Donald Trump.

You know that midterm “red wave” you’ve been hearing about? Well, Tuesday's primaries were great for Dems — and if the GOP takes the House in November, it won’t be from a blowout at the polls.

Those assuming that a red wave is taking shape may need to adjust their expectations. (via @MaddowBlog) on.msnbc.com/3AOXIwl

"On student debt, Joe Biden seems to get it: Stand with the little guy. Call out the billionaires. Morally & politically, it's the right thing to do."

As conservatives continue to push their narratives on crime, @GeorgeGascon says “we cannot lose our center of gravity.”
“I fear that if we try to outdo Republicans,” he tells @mehdirhasan, “we will never succeed and all we’re doing is we’re going down a rabbit hole.”

Is it helpful for high-profile Dems to blast Biden’s student loan relief plan?
“There’s no reason to take one idea down when there’s other good ideas,” @RepMarkPocan tells @mehdirhasan. “We’ve done a lot to help real people. Let’s just celebrate all of those things.”

Still having trouble making sense of the right-wing argument that Trump can wave his hands over a box of documents and magically declassify it?
Let @mehdirhasan explain very briefly… with an assist from “The Office”’s Michael Scott:

Los Angeles DA @GeorgeGascon will keep his job, despite two attempts to recall him. His progressive counterpart in San Francisco, meanwhile, wasn’t so lucky.
So as he sees another day in his role, Gascón joins @mehdirhasan to discuss whether his approach has changed at all.

Joe Biden’s student loan relief plan is ambitious & historic. But its critics aren’t just on the right, they’re coming from some Democrats too. What are their objections & are they right?
@RepMarkPocan joins @mehdirhasan to weigh in — tune in for their convo on @MSNBConPeacock!

.@RepMarkPocan tells @mehdirhasan it's key for Democrats to stand up to GOP extremism as they campaign in the midterms:
"There are some wackos running out there. And we need to be able to set the differences out there."

The 2020 campaign saw several female presidential contenders. But Democratic voters "wanted anyone who could beat Trump," @alivitali tells @mehdirhasan:
"That’s why they went with someone who looked, frankly, like all the presidents before, which is...an older white man."

As wise philosopher-queen Beyoncé once said: “Who run the world? Girls.”
Her iconic lyric may run true around the rest of the globe, but, as @mehdirhasan asks — why hasn’t the U.S. yet elected a woman to run the *country*? Watch his interview with @alivitali on @MSNBConPeacock.

You know that midterm elections “red wave” you’ve heard so much about? Well, Tuesday night’s primaries marked a great night for Dems — and if Republicans take the House in November, it won’t be because of a GOP blowout at the polls.

Far-right activist Laura Loomer lost her GOP primary in FL, but not by much.
"I'm glad she is not going to be a colleague," @IlhanMN tells @mehdirhasan, adding: "It is scary that many people are not paying attention to the actual threats these people pose to our democracy."

Progressives failed to coalesce in NY's 10th district, and lost to centrist Dem. Dan Goldman in the primary.
“I do hope that this is a lesson," @IlhanMN tells @mehdirhasan. "If we are not consolidating our efforts…then we face the reality of losing that seat."

Biden pledged to forgive up to $20k of student debt, and he’s done it. But will it do enough for the Black Americans who are disproportionately crushed by student debt?
If it fails to address that, @mehdirhasan says, "It's not going to be as historic as many were hoping."

Democrats earned a huge victory in a potential bellwether NY House race. Could that mean the House is still in play for Democrats?
