Election law experts and voting rights activists are deeply worried about the current state and future of democracy around the world. But @shadihamid argues that democracy is actually at a "high point."

Are Trump and Trumpism worthy of the “fascist” label? "If something sounds like fascism, walks like fascism, we shouldn't be afraid to use that label," @mehdirhasan says — but @shadihamid has a different take.
Watch their debate on whether U.S. democracy is really in crisis:

Rishi Sunak will make history as the first nonwhite person to serve as UK PM, but “so much of his life story…has never served any disadvantaged person or any ordinary Briton—white, Black or Brown," @y_alibhai says. “He’s Brown, like me. He’s from East Africa, like me. So what?”

Rishi Sunak is set to become Britain's first prime minister of color. @mehdirhasan's take: “Am I delighted that a nonwhite Brit of Indian descent managed to become PM? Yes. But is Rishi Sunak or the Conservative Party going to actually help minorities in the UK? Don’t be silly.”

There's still an interest gap between Dems and the GOP when it comes to the midterms. How can the left better excite their base?
"The Democrats have not connected their accomplishments with the pain that people are suffering," @DougJones says. "That's a big thing."

The GOP's support of Herschel Walker—despite troubling allegations—echoes how they backed AL Senate hopeful Roy Moore in 2017.
"It’s a real problem," says @DougJones, who defeated Moore. "You’ve got candidates...that have these failings, yet they’re still being supported."

It’s a historically red state Trump took easily in 2016. The GOP's banking on a Senate win there, but may lose because they put up a candidate roiled in misconduct allegations.
No, @mehdirhasan's not talking about Herschel Walker in GA. Let him take you back to AL in 2017:

The UK has a new prime minister (again). Rishi Sunak is also set to be the nation’s first leader of color... But what will that mean for the UK’s minorities?
@y_alibhai joins @mehdirhasan to weigh in — tune in on @MSNBConPeacock.

The GOP is capitalizing on voters’ willingness to vote for amoral partisans with candidates like Herschel Walker. But if anyone knows how to beat a controversial Republican opponent, it’s @DougJones.

"As average Americans watch inflationary forces play Pac-Man with their wages, many of this country's largest companies and their shareholders have been reveling in historic profit margins," @MehdiRHasan explains. Who is looking out for Joe and Josephine six-pack? WATCH:

We talk a lot about the prospect of Republicans taking back control of the House, but what about what they plan to do with that power? @MehdiRHasan lays out the GOP’s outrageous agenda in tonight’s #minirant.

U.K. conservatives held Liz Truss accountable, but the GOP still backs Trump, even as he threatens journalists with rape in prison for not revealing the Supreme Court leaker’s identity.
@MehdiRHasan and @AymanM discuss how Republicans refuse to hold members to account:

Ex-adviser @RepRiggleman says he’d give the work of the 1/6 Cmte. a grade of 8.8: “The 1.2 off of that 10 is the lack of speed,” he tells @mehdirhasan. “Data is perishable, time is paramount. … We still have 3 dozen members on the Meadows text messages we need to talk to.”

“Let’s move forward and work together to protect democracy.” @RepRiggleman tells @mehdirhasan, responding to criticism of his 91.9% Trump voting record in Congress.

Why was Lauren Boebert never subpoenaed by the 1/6 Cmte. to give her own testimony to investigators? In Sunday’s monologue, @mehdirhasan points out that 5 GOP lawmakers, including Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, were summoned in May to appear, but not Boebert.
Again, why?
