This Juneteenth, @mehdirhasan asks @DrIbram: How should we teach kids about the holiday?
“We can teach young people that people were forced to work,” he says. “We can also teach those very kids that those people, who were forced to do that, constantly resisted.”

Everything’s bigger in Texas. And also, it seems, more extreme. I mean, have you seen the new platform from the Texas Republican Party? As @mehdirhasan says, “It’s bonkers!” Feels like it’s time for a 60-second rant. Start the clock!

Tuesday's 1/6 hearing will focus “not only how close we came to a bigger crisis than the one that we saw, but that the seeds have been planted for this to happen again,” @kyledcheney tells @mehdirhasan. “These parties have been seeded with people who are beholden to Trump."

“Like everything else, Trump’s effort to cement victory is still happening,” says @mehdirhasan in Monday’s opening monologue. It’s trickled down to local elections, where Trump’s election lie has infected “the people responsible for carrying out *how* Americans vote.” WATCH:

Gianforte echoes Cruz with his "lavish foreign vacation in the middle of an unprecedented crisis while rural voters in his red state are left behind to suffer."
"No one has more contempt for ordinary Republican voters than elected Republican leaders," @mehdirhasan says. ICYMI:

The lessons of Ted Cruz’s Cancun fiasco seemed obvious. Perhaps Montana Gov. Greg Gianforte wasn’t paying close enough attention. (via @MaddowBlog) msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show…

Lawmakers have praised Pence for his actions on Jan. 6th but what does his fmr. aide @OliviaTroye have to say about his silence since then?
“I’ve been calling for [Pence] to come forward,” she tells @MehdiRHasan. “If it were up to me, he should have come forward on January 7th.”
