Senate Democrats are seeking answers on Jared Kushner’s Middle East deals, including a possible Qatar link to a $1.2 billion deal. @ryangrim tells @MehdiRHasan that Joshua Kushner, Jared’s brother, also hit up Qatar for money: “This needs to be investigated.”

“There’s really no comparison. Jared Kushner was the senior official in the White House. Hunter Biden is not in the White House.” @VickyPJWard compares the alleged conflicts of interest surrounding Biden and Kushner.

In Sunday’s opening monologue, @mehdirhasan says we need to talk about a scandal too many have been ignoring for too long, involving a president & a family member who’s accused of using his proximity to rake in billions. And no, he’s not talking about Hunter Biden:

.@PeterBeinart isn’t shocked Republicans use support for Israel as a defense against antisemitism charges: It "makes a certain amount of sense," he tells @mehdirhasan. "You like Jews when they’re...in their own country. You don’t like them when they’re in *your* country."

Benjamin Netanyahu has long led a bizarre alliance between Christian Zionists and Israeli politicians — and his recent rhetoric is "old-fashioned colonialist" and "racist," @PeterBeinart says. “[It's] just a sign of how normalized anti-Palestinian and anti-Arab bigotry can be.”

Antisemitic tropes are on the rise, especially on the right. But it seems whenever a Republican is accused of antisemitism, their reply is, “I can’t be antisemitic, I love Israel!” How does *that* work? It doesn’t. And @mehdirhasan explains why:

When critics like @fshakir questioned Pres. Biden's push to make South Carolina the first Dem primary state, an anonymous Biden adviser accused them of sending Black voters to "the back of the bus." @mehdirhasan asks former Biden aide @SymoneDSanders to react to that quote.

With Pres. Biden pushing to make South Carolina the first Dem primary state, some critics are wondering, "why not choose a place like Georgia instead?" @SymoneDSanders joins @mehdirhasan to discuss the case for South Carolina and respond to critics.

The 1/6 panel plans to issue criminal referrals soon, and @JillWineBanks expects Trump to be at the top of the list. “It won’t be just for perjury or obstruction of Congress,” she tells @mehdirhasan. “We’re back to the Watergate era, of the coverup is worse than the crime.”

A Manhattan jury found the Trump Organization guilty on all charges in a sweeping tax fraud scheme. @mehdirhasan asks: “Am I wrong to wonder why on earth Trump wasn’t charged?” Hear @JoyceWhiteVance's answer:

The Trump Org was convicted of tax fraud, but its namesake, Donald Trump, has never been indicted w/ a crime despite years of legal trouble. @mehdirhasan: “I can’t help but worry that after decades of evading consequences, Teflon Don will slip through the cracks once again.”

President Biden is pushing for South Carolina to take the lead in the 2024 presidential primary. And while the idea has been well-received by many in his party, it also has some critics. @SymoneDSanders joins @mehdirhasan to discuss — watch their convo on @MSNBConPeacock.

This week, we finally saw accountability for the Trump Organization. But amid new developments in the classified documents and 1/6 probes, will Trump himself ever be held to account? Watch @JillWineBanks and @JoyceWhiteVance discuss with @mehdirhasan: peacocktv.com/mehdi

Israel's Netanyahu has mounted a political comeback, thanks to a courtship w/ so-called ‘Christian Zionists,’ and his comments are “a sign of how normalized anti-Palestinian and anti-Arab bigotry can be,” @PeterBeinart says. Watch his convo w/ @mehdirhasan on @MSNBConPeacock.

We haven’t heard much about QAnon since Trump was in the White House, but the group is still alive and still dangerous. @mehdirhasan shows how it’s spreading beyond the realm of American politics. WATCH:

The Supreme Court is hearing a case that could upend federal elections. At the center of the case: the 'independent state legislature theory.' “Calling it a theory is a little bit too generous,” @ProfMMurray tells @mehdirhasan. She explains why she calls it "fan fiction":

At the surface, Moore v. Harper is a gerrymandering case. But at its core, it's about state legislatures' power in federal elections. And if SCOTUS accepts this bonkers reading of the Constitution, @mehdirhasan says, the consequences will be straightforward — and dangerous.

What's @SenWhitehouse's stance *now* on expanding SCOTUS? “It’s not that I don’t think it’s the right remedy,” he tells @mehdirhasan. “Just like any good lawyer, we have work to do to convince the judge of the merits of our case ... And I think we have not done that work yet.”
