The conservative Supreme Court has overturned Roe v. Wade — and as @mehdirhasan warns, there's only so many means left to try and fix a broken system. After all, "Do you really think Republicans and their Supreme Court outriders are going to stop at abortion rights?"
After 50 years, Republicans who gamed a broken system are on the verge of ending the right to abortion. Dems say “bipartisanship” and “norms” will fix it.
They won’t, @mehdirhasan says. Ending the filibuster & expanding SCOTUS will — just about the only means left to do so.

.@esglaude uses his own story to exemplify racial progress: “I’m the chair of African-American studies at Princeton; my father couldn’t go to Princeton." But, he adds, "we still live in a society where some people are valued more than others because of the color of their skin.”

.@WalshFreedom wants “to scream” about key 1/6 GOP witnesses who didn't back Trump’s election lies — yet say they’d vote for him again.
“I don’t know what this says about the country, but I know what this says about the Republican Party: It’s done. It’s irredeemable.”

“Remember, Ron Johnson is the same guy who said 'This was a normal tourist visit’... who said ‘Oh I’d be much more afraid if there were BLM protesters’” @JuanitaTolliver says of fake elector scrutiny. He's “been carrying Trump water and working with him, seemingly, on the inside”

“This court, on this issue, moved away from states’ rights in a way that will lead to more dead people,” @fred_guttenberg says after SCOTUS struck down a New York gun law that restricts concealed carry. “I don’t understand what they’re doing, but it is deadly and dangerous.”

The Supreme Court’s decision to overturn New York’s concealed carry law and the bipartisan Senate gun safety bill have a major theme in common, @MichaelSteele says: Neither addresses what most Americans want — MORE GUN REFORM, as proven by poll after poll.

The 1/6 panel's goal: expose Trump’s actions and ensure he never holds office again. The DOJ's goal: prosecute those who broke the law carrying out Trump's plan.
@JuanitaTolliver, @WalshFreedom and @CynthiaAlksne discuss: Can both succeed amid tension with each other?

Rosanne Boyland died at the Capitol on 1/6. How should Trump be held liable? “Accountability would probably, in my opinion, come from criminal charges and prosecution," her brother-in-law, Justin Cave, tells @mehdirhasan.
