The political fight in Washington is heating up as President Biden promotes his agenda on jobs and infrastructure. As Republicans push back against the Biden administration on spending and priorities, the chairman of the American Conservative Union Matt Schlapp joins MSNBC’s Ari Melber to discuss the situation.

1. They shouldn't be so polite to these morons

2. Trying to drag this out & mangling it.

Eager to hammer the scary Karl Marx Kommunism theme. Lame.

Ask the guy to explain fascism in depth.

3. Cut it off

The second I saw his mug. I thought what the hell Ari, you are turning into a Thuck Chodd with your guests and both side ism crap. Matt needs a whole lot of Schlapping in that mug. Just the fact he was in front of CPAC posters should have disqualified him from MSNBC. I would rather hear Ari quote rap lyrics for a hour.

4. Iirc, the phrase "opiate of the masses"

Means that capital utilizes religion to keep the masses controlled. Of course religion is about social control anyway. Religion allows cathartic release from the drudgery of capital dominating labor.
