Texas is freezing, and this country is in crisis. So where the hell are our leaders? Ted Cruz is in Cancun, and Joe Biden is nowhere to be found! The White House needs to face the reality of climate change and respond. Now, while everyone is paying attention, not later, when nobody cares. "This is a moment of crisis. Not just for the people of Texas, but for every one of us. Because this is the future if we don’t start responding."

Historian Harvey Kaye talks about what FDR did that Biden isn’t doing, which would make all the difference in this moment. We need significant reforms right now, and yet it’s not happening. Nomiki and Harvey talk about the structural barriers to progress. “What Biden is really good at is contradiction, maybe even contradicting himself along the way.” » @harveyjkaye

Thursday Panel w/ Chris Rabb and Arun Chaudhary: Congress is taking another look at reparations; Meanwhile, The Lincoln Project is under pressure to shut down, and not for the reasons you’d expect: and lastly, YouTube influencer Logan Paul is leaving California for Puerto Rico with all that white privilege and colonial mentality in tow, “You can’t have a meaningful critique of capitalism without talking about reparations.” » @chrisrabb
