The FBI’s Mar-a-Lago search is a big deal, and likely means trouble for the former prez. Yet his GOP allies are so up in arms that some want to "defund" the bureau.
@WalshFreedom, @MollyJongFast and @WajahatAli join Mehdi on @MSNBConPeacock to discuss the political firestorm.

Republicans have worked to keep gerrymandered maps in parts of several states — a tactic that dilutes Black and Brown votes.
“There’s no such thing as a voter turnout that can beat back gerrymandered districts,” @davedaley3 says. “That’s exactly what they’re designed to stop.”

.@aliciagarza says the Black voters who helped Joe Biden win the White House are who he should be reaching out to now that he has some legislative wins to tout.

"Yes, the Cheneys have done considerable damage to America and American politics. And yes, the Cheneys are 100% right about the threat Trump poses to American democracy. You can hold both of those thoughts in your head at the same time, as I do."

"Republicans don't particularly like being lumped in with every extremist group and domestic terrorist," says @mehdirhasan. "You might actually find some sympathy from this Muslim guy—vague indications of extremism? Accusations of collective guilt? Sound familiar, Ted?"

"Fox was so committed to this bit that they even criticized the White House for getting the number wrong," says @mehdirhasan on Fox News trying to negatively spin the strong jobs report.
"Yes, they missed it—but only because the report was so much better than anticipated!"

Over 1 million people have died from Covid-19 in the US alone and yet government figures are saying we need to live with it.
@thrasherxy tells @MehdiRHasan this mindset "isn't good for Covid or monkeypox... we need paid sick leave to deal with all of these pandemics."

“With a character as colorful, as bombastic, as Yosemite Sam-esque as Alex Jones, it can be easy to forget that his incoherent bile has hurt and destroyed real people,” @MehdiRHasan says about the InfoWars host’s legal woes – and his ongoing influence within GOP politics.

Fox News has downplayed Biden’s announcement of the Killing of Al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahri. But it turns out they had quite the opposite reaction when Donald Trump ordered the death of ISIS leader al-Baghdadi in 2019.
Roll the tape!

White people love to quote MLK Jr.’s 'I Have a Dream' speech, @kateschatz says, adding: I’d "remind them of what he wrote in 'Letter from Birmingham Jail'":
"The biggest danger," she tells @mehdirhasan, is "the people who know what’s going on but don’t do anything."
