"Barack Obama kept changing policies to work with the GOP and it never worked. Now, we see Joe Biden doing the same thing and it's frustrating because they'll never give credit to the Democrats. They are the party of 'no'."

“It’s a strange thing to realize that even in power if you ask Republicans what they want, they can’t tell you. They just know what they don’t want,” @RadioFreeTom calls out Republicans for their lack of policy when it comes to negotiating the debt ceiling.

Does the GOP have no shame? In the wake of the George Santos indictment and the Donald Trump sexual abuse verdict, @MehdiRHasan calls out Republicans for acting like a “deplorable cult.”

March 11 marks one year since Palestinian American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh was shot and killed in the Occupied Territories. If President Biden truly believes journalism isn’t a crime, then why isn’t he doing more to hold the people responsible for her death accountable?

Elon Musk had something to say about demonstrations in the wake of Jordan Neely's death in New York, making the absurd suggestion that people didn't protest after the Covenant School shooting in Nashville.
They did. It's time to debunk that tweet.

Since the Trump years, the U.S. has seen a rise in the prominence of Hispanic white nationalists. @mehdirhasan asks: Why?
@kathleen_belew explains how the movement is “fundamentally opportunistic” and not afraid to “bend the rules” when looking for recruits.

A decade ago, pundits and politicians were panicking over the threat of terror strikes by ISIS inside the US.
But today, @mehdirhasan points out, more mass murders are being committed by American-born far-right white supremacists.

The CNN Town Hall gave a platform to a man who simply will not stop lying.

CNN’s disastrous Trump Town Hall was not a much-needed grilling of Donald Trump. It was not even a media town hall. It was a Trump campaign rally. CNN did not have to do this. Check out @mehdirhasan’s must-watch recap. youtube.com/N5ogoFTlNug

Not only did CNN give Trump a platform to display his hypocrisy, racism, and misogyny, they gave him an audience dominated by groupies who provided him with a laugh track to go with it. @mehdirhasan compiled the cringe-inducing moments. Roll the tape.

In Ireland, the political party Sinn Fein was once seen by many as a de-facto wing of the Irish Republican Army – a terrorist organization. @Mehdirhasan asks @kathleen_belew: could we be on the road to a similar situation with the GOP and far-right domestic extremists?

President Biden says he has been “considering the 14th Amendment” as a path to avert defaulting on the nation’s debt, if the GOP continues to hold the national economy hostage.
It’s about time. But it’s also not the only option available to him.

"We are at this moment on a road to Hell." @DanielEllsberg exposed the government's lies about the Vietnam War by leaking the Pentagon Papers. Five decades later, he's worried about where we're headed as a country, and as a human race.

“Americans still don’t quite understand how unique this country is when it comes to gun violence. Still don’t quite understand that the rest of the world does not live like this,” @MehdiRHasan tells @AymanM in light of the TX mall shooting.
