If Russia invades, @jscros says the cost of war will be felt the most by Ukrainian civilians.

Gunmaker Remington settled a case with some families of Sandy Hook victims for $73M. Could it lead the way for more lawsuits of the same nature? @jadamskaggs says it could:

"Democrats need to talk much more about what they stand for, who they're fighting for, and what they're fighting against," @mehdirhasan says. "Instead, they're choosing to play defense and to keep repeating their opponents' lies to try and debunk them."

As much as “The Trojan Horse Affair” delves into a mysterious 2014 letter, it also delves into @HamzaMSyed’s experience as a Muslim journalist.
“It’s who I am, it’s why I went into journalism, and I’m not gonna be shy about that,” he tells @mehdirhasan.
