Why the GOP Killed the January 6th Commission + A Conversation with Don Lemon

While a vast majority of Americans favored the establishment of a bi-partisan commission to investigate the January 6th Capital riot, the GOP is only interested in self-preservation. So the whitewash continues with Donald Trump and the usual suspects pumping out a counter narrative where, he not only won the election, but the activities of that day were peaceful and the agitators leftist radicals. If it sounds insane, that’s because it is. But 73% of Republican voters polled believe that’s the truth. Next, Michael looks at the Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Greene MAGA hate tour which they’ve billed the “America First Rally.” Should the GOP retake the House and Senate in 2022, this racist circus will be coming to an arena near you. Finally, CNN’s Don Lemon joins Mea Culpa to talk about his new book, “This is the Fire,” the madness of the modern GOP, the death of white supremacy and much, much more.
