It’s not too big a stretch to look at the FBI's Mar-a-Lago search and think the walls could be closing in on Trump — especially as he & his advisers start pointing fingers.
@selectedwisdom & @swin24 join @mehdirhasan to break it all down. Watch on @MSNBConPeacock.

A new TV series starring Simon Pegg centers on British politics in a post-pandemic world, prophetically saying Boris Johnson had resigned — before it happened in real life.
Was Pegg said to see him go? “Not in the slightest.”

It appears Trump's take on the Fifth amendment hasn't aged well. (via @MaddowBlog) msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show…

A slew of Trump-backed, election-denying candidates in states like Minnesota and Wisconsin saw victories in Tuesday’s primaries.
@mehdirhasan’s take: “Let’s face it, Tuesday was a bad night for anyone who believes in the sanity or decency of the Republican Party.”

.@RepHoltzman, who in 1973 was the youngest woman to serve in Congress, is running again for a seat in the House — this time, in the crowded Democratic primary for New York’s 10th district.
“I’m not someone who likes to sit on the sidelines,” she tells @mehdirhasan. Watch:

Watergate has become the gold standard for political corruption & misconduct — and Trump knows it. Which is why he loves to say his perceived political enemies are “worse than Watergate.”
Let @mehdirhasan explain the former president’s obsession with the Nixon scandal:

“Donald Trump has a really big mouth…where there’s no criminal liability," @AWeissmann_ tells @mehdirhasan. But he has "scrupulously avoided testifying" in forums "that would expose him to criminal liability if he merely repeated the lies that he says to the public.”

“I do think there is an argument to be made” for the Justice Department to speak publicly about its document probe of Donald Trump, @AWeissmann_ says:
“The very target of the search has publicly revealed the investigation and the search warrant,” he tells @mehdirhasan.

Before we can even consider the prospect of Trump’s actions (maybe) catching up to him, we must remember one thing, @mehdirhasan says: He has a GOP "that will do anything to defend him.”
But as right-wingers flood the zone with their rhetoric, Dems are just letting it happen:

Donald Trump is obsessed with calling his perceived enemies "worse than Watergate." What's with this bizarre comparison? @mehdirhasan asks two people involved in investigating the Nixon scandal.

The Mar-a-Lago search caused a freakout from right-wing media and Trump’s defenders in the GOP. So why aren’t top Dems calling out the so-called “law and order” party who seem to believe Trump untouchable?

"No one stands up to them within the party — not even people who’ve had their own lives threatened," says @mehdirhasan after Mike Pence denounced the FBI Trump raid Tuesday.
“Mike Pence should be ashamed of himself,” his former aide @OliviaTroye says. “He knows better.”

“Trump breaks the law every morning he wakes up. I wish the Democrats, like with every single issue, were more aggressive,” @WalshFreedom tells @mehdirhasan. “I want to hear every Democrat out there say, ‘Trump’s no victim. We’re all treated equally under the law.’”

The FBI search of Trump’s Florida home is about much more than “taking documents out of the White House,” @kimwehle tells @mehdirhasan. “This is about what *happened* to the documents … this is about the next part of the story.”

“They would’ve only taken this step if it was absolutely necessary,” @AshaRangappa_ tells @mehdirhasan about the raid of Trump’s Florida home. “I can guarantee you that no one in the Department of Justice wants to do this.”

If there’s one thing conservatives take seriously, it’s top officials & presidential contenders improperly concealing documents and emails, right? Right!?
Yet those same Republicans who wanted to “Lock her up” are now outraged the feds searched the home of ex-President Trump 🤔

You’ll hear plenty about how the FBI’s execution of a search warrant at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home is unprecedented. “But then again, no former president has ever said and done the things Trump has said and done,” @mehdirhasan says. And now, he “could face real federal penalties.”
