Democratic leaders like Nancy Pelosi have called for a return to the “old” Republican Party. But @DavidCornDC argues those “good old days…never truly existed”:
“You can’t go back there,” he tells @mehdirhasan. “This has been a forward motion of the Republican Party.”

If you want to know the state of the “Grand Old Party,” look no further than the gentleman from SC, Sen. Lindsey Graham.
But be warned, @mehdirhasan says: “You may be traveling down a rabbit hole of utter confusion, complete cowardice and incessant flip-flopping.”

.@rulajebreal says Europe's far-right movement has been “weaponizing fear and hate” to promote ‘Great Replacement’ theory.
In Italy, she tells @mehdirhasan, Giorgia Meloni “lobbied against me vehemently and routinely, simply because in her eyes, I am not Italian enough.”

As we talk about the GOP's fascist behavior, you might be thinking, “I’ll just move to Europe!” Not so fast, says @mehdirhasan.
Italy is bracing for its first far-right leader since Mussolini — and that’s just the beginning of what's now a global problem:

Documentary filmmaker Nick Quested captured history on 1/6. Now, he exposes how cruise ships handled Covid early in the pandemic in “Hell of a Cruise” — and it’s a hell of a story.

Trump's been out of office for 18+ months, and is wrapped up in a federal criminal probe.
And yet, @mehdirhasan says, some 10% of America's sheriffs — armed men w/ jurisdictions over millions of Americans — are signaling that in 2024, they have his back. youtube.com/watch?v=yrj_Lx5P…
WATCH: Here's how a network of local sheriffs is helping spread election fraud lies.

An insurrectionist clause in the Constitution has barred Couy Griffin, who took part in 1/6, from holding public office. Could that same clause keep Donald Trump from a 2024 run?

Today, we live in a world where politicians can rile up their base, lie in their face and take credit for bills they voted to erase (Ted Cruz, we’re looking at you 👀).
Once again, @mehdirhasan wonders: “How do you shame the shameless?”

At the start of the pandemic, Montana's governor imposed a mask mandate, limits on indoor gatherings and a stay-at-home order.
Then, @mehdirhasan says, a Republican took the office and unraveled those policies — and the state’s medical community is still reeling:

“Don’t do the crime if you don’t want to do the time,” @DeanObeidallah says of the Constitution’s ‘disqualification’ clause. He warns @mehdirhasan of the possibility that, if it isn’t enforced, Trump could conceivably run for president again from prison. WATCH:

“I think we have this urgent need to find a way to Trump-proof the Constitution and the rule of law,” @SykesCharlie tells @mehdirhasan about using the 14th Amendment, Section 3 against insurrectionists. But, he warns, it could be used in a bad-faith way against Dems by the GOP.
