This is worth a watch. We can enjoy football and the World Cup, and appreciate it being held in the Middle East and a Muslim-majority country for the first time, while also recognizing the undeniable controversies and human rights abuses associated with this tournament in Qatar:

@mehdihasan Watching your show this morning. WTF. “Did #Democrats impeachment failures destroy democracy?” How about Republicans refuse to uphold their Oath of Office and Rule of Law? And you showed this after a segment on #Journalist’s failures to call out Trump and Republicans crimes and hateful actions. Seriously, WTF!
