"Where is the outrage from the Biden administration? Where is the urgency to find out how an American citizen was shot & killed? And how long will the U.S. continue to give Israel a pass on, apparently, everything?"

The State Dept said gunfire from Israeli positions is “likely responsible” for Shireen Abu Akleh’s death but won't take further action.
“It’s disturbing," @rulajebreal tells @mehdirhasan. "It sends a signal to dictators around the world that it’s an open season on journalists."

Multiple investigations into Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh's killing say Israeli forces likely shot her, but the U.S. State Department chalks it up to “tragic circumstances” and won't take any further action.
@mehdirhasan asks, "Where is the outrage?"

Dems act like they can't do anything about the Supreme Court — yet Congress and President Biden certainly can, @mehdirhasan says.
“[Republicans] won this fight...by not respecting the court,” @adamserwer says. “Democrats should not be afraid to...attack the court’s decisions.”

An upcoming SCOTUS case could subvert presidential elections by making our democracy "so much less democratic,” @LeahLitman says. But, she says, legislatures throwing out already-cast votes is a “warped variant” of the theory being posed to the court. Watch her explain:

This spring, a federal judge called John Eastman’s plan to reject electoral college votes “a coup in search of a legal theory.” But come 2024, that nonsensical idea could have the Supreme Court's backing.
Let @mehdirhasan explain the case that "should keep us all up at night":

Yet another mass shooting in America took place this weekend. It’s a “pretty grim picture” on its own, @igorvolsky says, not to mention that “this president [is] showing no interest in actually fighting, and actually doing things that he can himself do without Congress.” Watch:

We've heard the GOP scream for months about school closures, kids’ mental health and critical race theory, @mehdirhasan says.
"Yet many of those people don’t seem to give a damn about the sheer trauma that gun violence is causing to the youngest, most vulnerable among us."

A day celebrating America was marred by a grimmer American tradition: mass shootings, @mehdirhasan says.
“This is the world our conservative-led Supreme Court wants us to live in, a world in which 400 million American guns have more rights than 300 million American people.”

Several investigations into Shireen Abu Akleh’s killing point to Israeli forces as the likely culprit. The State Dept, though, won’t definitively agree.
What should we make of the U.S. response, or lack thereof? @rulajebreal weighs in w/ @mehdirhasan tonight on @MSNBConPeacock.

A July 4th weekend stained by uniquely American tragedies, including yet another mass shooting. What will it take to make gun violence *not* a daily feature of the American experience?
Don’t miss @mehdirhasan’s discussion w/ @AdamSerwer and @igorvolsky, only on @MSNBConPeacock.

“Why can’t Democrats just say, ‘Actually, this court is pretty illegitimate?’” @mehdirhasan asks.
@AdamSerwer: “The conservative legal movement took over the court...by attacking it as illegitimate.”
Tune in tonight as they talk SCOTUS and Dems' response on @MSNBConPeacock.

Multiple news & human rights orgs have concluded Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh was likely shot by Israeli forces. The State Dept, which didn’t investigate her death, called it “tragic circumstances.”
Watch her niece's convo w/ @mehdirhasan on U.S. inaction:
"How many more Americans have to be killed for the Biden administration to act?"
On the @MehdiHasanShow, @LinaAbuAkleh told me she wants the U.S. to investigate the death of her aunt, Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh - watch a preview:

As we approach July 4th, @CornelWest tells @MehdiRhasan his message for Americans losing hope: "I'm a prisoner of hope in America because there are always courageous human beings of all colors who are willing to throw down for love and justice."

"How do we talk about a Supreme Court that doesn't reduce rule of law simply to raw ideology? Unfortunately, they're more perceived to be just a function of raw politics."
@CornelWest discusses the politicization of the Supreme Court with @MehdiRhasan.

The 6-3 majority conservative Supreme Court is now taking clear aim at decades of precedent. @mehdirhasan gives a major reality check: "Democracy cannot survive if you have a rogue Supreme Court with no public backing."

"Why did I, as a gay man, work for people who were against gay marriage? If I could work for someone who wants to take that away, how easy is it for someone to rationalize going along with Trump?"

Would prosecuting Trump tear this country apart? Former Deputy Assistant Attorney General @thelisagraves tells @mehdirhasan that "his followers have already torn this country apart" and that it would be "outrageous" for Trump not to be arrested.
