New polling shows that threats to democracy are a top concern for voters — and @MollyJongFast thinks there’s a silver lining: “Trumpism could conceivably peter out.”
Hear the rest of her exchange w/ @mehdirhasan, and catch their full convo with @ruthbenghiat on @MSNBConPeacock.

The Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade has renewed calls to expand the court.
@ngertner tells @MehdiRHasan this must be done saying, “This court, in three days, overturned decades of precedent.”

As Republicans lose their minds over Biden’s plan to cancel some student debt, they’re showing us who they really are in the process. @MehdiRHasan and @AymanM showcase the contempt some members of the GOP are showing for the working class in tonight’s #handover:

GOP Senators are blasting Biden over his plan to cancel some student debt. But, as @MehdiRHasan points out in tonight’s #minirant, those who had it easier (and cheaper) don’t get to lecture the rest of us. Start the clock!

Multiple progressive Democrats have been losing their primary races lately. So how did 25-year-old Democratic House candidate @MaxwellFrostFL win his primary in Florida running on key progressive ideas? @MehdiRHasan asks him. WATCH:

Trump’s “attention was hard to secure,” @douglaslondon5 tells @MehdiRHasan about trying to brief the then-president, “Using a lot of graphics & images…things that were sort of catchy.” And electronic, he adds, so Trump wouldn’t walk away with the info:

Is it pie in the sky to think Democrats could hold onto both chambers come November?
“I don’t think it’s the most likely path but I do see a path,” Harvard pollster @dellavolpe tells @MehdiRHasan. “To me, it looks a lot like 2018.”

A fake heiress posing as a Rothschild snuck her way onto Donald Trump’s golf course, even managing to take a picture with the former president.
@MehdiRHasan asks security expert @douglaslondon5: “Where is the background check?”

Republicans have spent decades attacking Democrats for being “soft” on national security. Yet, as @MehdiRHasan points out, they have remained largely silent on what perhaps could be one of the biggest national security threats facing our country today: Donald Trump.

You know that midterm “red wave” you’ve been hearing about? Well, Tuesday's primaries were great for Dems — and if the GOP takes the House in November, it won’t be from a blowout at the polls.
Watch @mehdirhasan's convo w/ @sahilkapur and @MarcACaputo: youtube.com/watch?v=Bqy79srC…
Those assuming that a red wave is taking shape may need to adjust their expectations. (via @MaddowBlog) on.msnbc.com/3AOXIwl

"On student debt, Joe Biden seems to get it: Stand with the little guy. Call out the billionaires. Morally & politically, it's the right thing to do."

As conservatives continue to push their narratives on crime, @GeorgeGascon says “we cannot lose our center of gravity.”
“I fear that if we try to outdo Republicans,” he tells @mehdirhasan, “we will never succeed and all we’re doing is we’re going down a rabbit hole.”

Is it helpful for high-profile Dems to blast Biden’s student loan relief plan?
“There’s no reason to take one idea down when there’s other good ideas,” @RepMarkPocan tells @mehdirhasan. “We’ve done a lot to help real people. Let’s just celebrate all of those things.”

Still having trouble making sense of the right-wing argument that Trump can wave his hands over a box of documents and magically declassify it?
Let @mehdirhasan explain very briefly… with an assist from “The Office”’s Michael Scott:

“If Trump is going to battle, this is his star lieutenant.”
To understand the ever-changing narrative about *why* Trump took classified documents from the White House, let @mehdirhasan tell you all about his point-person for spreading the word:

Los Angeles DA @GeorgeGascon will keep his job, despite two attempts to recall him. His progressive counterpart in San Francisco, meanwhile, wasn’t so lucky.
So as he sees another day in his role, Gascón joins @mehdirhasan to discuss whether his approach has changed at all.

Joe Biden’s student loan relief plan is ambitious & historic. But its critics aren’t just on the right, they’re coming from some Democrats too. What are their objections & are they right?
@RepMarkPocan joins @mehdirhasan to weigh in — tune in for their convo on @MSNBConPeacock!

.@RepMarkPocan tells @mehdirhasan it's key for Democrats to stand up to GOP extremism as they campaign in the midterms:
"There are some wackos running out there. And we need to be able to set the differences out there."

"Even a majority of people without college degrees support forgiving some or all of the student loan debt in America."

The 2020 campaign saw several female presidential contenders. But Democratic voters "wanted anyone who could beat Trump," @alivitali tells @mehdirhasan:
"That’s why they went with someone who looked, frankly, like all the presidents before, which is...an older white man."
