A real lecture for the MAGAt terrorists on what the Constitution actually says and does, not what they think it does. It doesn’t say drumpf gets to lock up his enemies. It doesn’t say Whites own the country. It doesn’t say you get to sell Pelosi’s laptop to Russia just because your Q message board says she eats people.

And it certainly doesn’t say terrorists get to take over the country if they want drumpf to rule as emperor.

A much needed civics lesson beat down for a terrorists. May she spend the rest of her life in prison thinking about it.

She doesn't phone it in -- Maddow (and staff) digs deeper and smarter in detail. Her recap of the chaos in which Trump left government is worth watching too.

She is a first rate academic and we see that with the quality of her research.

And she stressed to the daughter of the mother that if she violates the conditions her mother could go to prison too.

or an attack against the United States. That needed to be included in my view, even if couched with the term alleged.

She is the best TV editorialist/reporter out there.

She deserves a Pulitzer for her lifetime body of work.

...of what makes Rachel "must-watch" TV. Republicans are shit chickenshits. Some of them will go on with Chris Hayes, who also does a great job, but not Rachel and she has no issue in letting anyone speak (as long as it's in good faith) without interruption. She's no doormat, but her challenges are always done fairly. She's the greatest.
