Why did Donald Trump enjoy an intimate dinner with prominent white supremacist and Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes? @JacksonLeeTX18 says she isn't sure. What's more, she also can't understand why Republicans are refusing to condemn the tête-à-tête. WATCH:

Joe Biden didn’t answer reporter questions on Trump’s dinner with Nick Fuentes and Kanye West. But @RubenGallego isn’t holding back on the ex-president: “He himself is a white supremacist, [and] he himself is an antisemite.”

A new book suggests Nancy Pelosi was a key force in dooming both of Dems’ impeachment efforts against Donald Trump.
Democrats say they did everything they could, but “the reality is, they didn’t,” @rachaelmbade says.

Nancy Pelosi has undoubtedly been the most consequential speaker of our lifetimes. But she was not without her shortcomings, Mehdi says. And despite her image as a resistance hero, she slow-walked both Trump impeachments — and a new book tells the full story. #MehdiBookClub

Can the GOP come back from its downward spiral into extremism? Not “for the time being,” @DraperRobert says.
He told @mehdirhasan: “When your base is essentially possessed by this unending source of disinformation, then I really do not know how you reverse that.” #MehdiBookClub

It’s no secret that the Republican Party has descended into extremism. But is that because more extremists came into the fold, or because the party itself opened the door to them?

"News media wants to be seen desperately as fair & unbiased...But in order to get there, they are overly responsive to criticism from the right," @Sulliview tells @mehdirhasan: "Democracy & anti-democracy are not equal things, & they shouldn’t be treated as such.” #MehdiBookClub

Muslim candidates have had notable victories across the country in recent years, including in 2022.
"These wins, year after year … show Muslim Americans that we, too, are part of this Democratic process. That we, too, belong," @NabilahIslam says. "And we are electable.”

A certain new social media owner in @RoKhanna’s district is causing chaos on the platform in the name of free speech.
“I’ll say publicly what I’ve said to [him] directly: Why is he wasting his talent on Twitter?” he tells @mehdirhasan. “It also shows the need for regulation.”

Did Progressives’ controversial letter on the Russia-Ukraine war bring us closer to a diplomatic solution?
@RoKhanna: “In an ironic way, the brouhaha over the letter accomplished what it was trying to do, which is create space for the admin. to engage in sensible diplomacy.”

The Russia-Ukraine war is entering its tenth month, and President Biden’s own national security advisers think the conflict will end at the negotiating table.
So, @mehdirhasan asks, why was it so controversial for House progressives to support talks with Putin?
