Kevin McCarthy claims he wants to remove Rep. Ilhan Omar from a committee because of her “antisemitism.” But if the House speaker won’t say it out loud, @mehdirhasan will: “the Right hates her because she’s a Black, Muslim refugee from Africa.”

Rep. Jim Jordan says a new House panel is like the ‘Church Committee.’ But Loch Johnson, a former aide to Sen. Frank Church and his committee, doesn’t agree.
“It’s comparing Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde in some ways,” he tells @mehdirhasan. WATCH:

The House GOP wants you to think a new, Jim Jordan-led Judiciary subcommittee is the second coming of the 'Church Committee,' the model for congressional probes.
"They may want to pretend that's what it is," @mehdirhasan says. "The rest of us don't have to buy into that BS."

House Republicans are trying to keep @IlhanMN off the Foreign Affairs Committee. But is this all just a form of GOP Islamophobia?

Kevin McCarthy says @IlhanMN’s ‘antisemitism’ is why he wants her off of a House committee. But, she tells @mehdirhasan “for them to smear me ... really is only about the fact that I am Muslim, I am Black, I am African.”

Even the least likely GOP presidential contenders are turning the far-right pandering up to 11. Case in point: Mike Pompeo, who’s using Jamal Khashoggi's brutal murder for attention.
Sadly, says @mehdirhasan that level of brutality is “the only future for Pompeo’s party,”

As he hawks a memoir and mulls a 2024 run, Mike Pompeo probably would prefer it if you forgot about two deeply telling, wild soundbites from his recent past.

Every time you think Ted Cruz can’t embarrass himself any further, he happily does — and this time, it's about the classified document saga. As @mehdirhasan says, “You can’t shame the shameless!” WATCH:

New data shows that Republicans have an extremely negative view of Islam — and “that tells you exactly what they think about the rest of us,” @WajahatAli says: “You can stay here as long as you know your place, and your place is that you will be a sidekick or a villain.”

.@mehdirhasan: “Have you ever eaten at the same restaurant 8 different times and ended up with a bill every time of exactly $199.99? Because George Santos’s campaign claims he did just that.”
@WajahatAli: "In addition to lying, he’s very skilled at being a very precise patron.”

.@mehdirhasan regrets to inform you that the George Santos saga is far from over.
The questionable denials, the shocking claims, and the outright lies are piling up by the day. The New York Republican’s serial fabrications make him the perfect fit for the modern GOP:

If you thought the George Santos web of lies couldn’t get more twisted, think again.
New questions are arising around his campaign expenses — and @mehdirhasan says we should be anything but shocked. Tune in for his convo w/ @WajahatAli on @MSNBConPeacock: peacocktv.com/mehdi

There’s been a lot of misinformation and conspiracies surrounding death certificates during the pandemic — when is Covid a cause of death, and when is it a contributing factor?
“As physicians, when we fill these out, we put a lot of thought into it,” @AbraarKaran says.

“When I looked at that headline, I was disappointed because it's factually inaccurate.”
A doctor’s column in the Washington Post claims Covid deaths are being overcounted — and @jeremyfaust tells @mehdirhasan it’s literally the wrong message: “We're still undercounting.”

It’s bad enough that no one’s talking about the thousands of Covid deaths every week. But what if @mehdirhasan told you that one medical expert was actually denying Covid death numbers?
"It’s a gift to the anti-science, anti-Covid right. And it’s offensive," he says. WATCH:

What’s funnier: The world’s second-richest man not getting invited to a forum for the world’s richest people, or that he lied about getting an invitation?
