When the Census comes around, inmates are counted as residents of wherever their prison facility is. And when it’s time to redraw congressional boundaries, that count has an effect on their home districts. Welcome to prison gerrymandering!

As Congress returns from its Thanksgiving recess and faces some hefty upcoming deadlines, Mitch McConnell says he prays for Joe Manchin every night. 😇 @mehdirhasan: “I bet you do, Mitch, I bet you do.”

What? Dr. Oz is running for Senate in Pennsylvania? As a *Republican*??? Well, actually… “It seems like the next logical step,” @mehdirhasan says, for a hawker of miracle cures who “stopped being a brilliant doctor long ago, in order to play a brilliant doctor on TV”:

“You know who else didn’t have a redemptive story? Jesus. You know who else was anti-authority? Jesus.” @michaelharriot wonders if Republicans’ attacks on “critical” theories apply to the savior of Scripture, as well:

Lots of Republicans quoted MLK to campaign against “critical race theory.” Well... guess what historic Civil Rights leader was attacked in the first complaint under Tennessee’s new anti-CRT law. If that isn't "white supremacy," says @mehdirhasan, "Then I don't know what is."

Last night @mehdirhasan both Dr Fauci and I explained why you should not hold off on your booster now 1. Omicron specific booster might not materialize or be required 2. You need the booster for this winter delta wave 3. Three mRNAs might still provide sufficient VNAs for omicron

The GOP isn’t the only party to blame for anti-Muslim rhetoric. @WajahatAli points out the Left’s issues, noting, “Bigots aren’t nuanced.”

Lauren Boebert's Islamophobic attacks on Ilhan Omar highlight how "this has become the most dangerous time period to be a visibly Muslim woman," @DaliaFFahmy says, adding that Islamophobia is not just socially acceptable, it’s “the core platform” for a lot of politicians now.

“That’s just Infowars with a bigger budget.” @mehdirhasan looked at the latest Fox News and Republican Covid disinfo so you don’t have to. Turns out they can’t even keep their conflicting conspiracy theories straight:

Don’t get *too* tangled up about new Covid variants, especially if you’re up to date on your vaccines, says @angie_rasmussen: “The chances that we’re going to be back at square one are almost impossible. The immune system doesn’t work that way.”

As the Omicron variant spreads, the U.S. is barring travelers from some Black-majority nations like South Africa...but not from white-majority European countries where the virus has been identified. @mehdirhasan asks Dr. Anthony Fauci about the discrepancy:

Fox News hosts claimed Covid variants are being made up for political purposes. With laughter. On air. Live. Mehdi played the tape back for Dr. Anthony Fauci.
