Joe and Alex discuss the latest on the Ukraine situation -- how has Joe Biden handled the American response so far? Could his strong leadership be one of the positive externalities Joe mentioned in his reasons for Dems to be optimistic this year? Also: Republican infighting keeps getting worse, and it's bleeding into costly primary fights. With a new poll showing Dems have a fighting chance this fall, where's the bottom... for the GOP? And a quick look at some of the under-reported elections that will be critical to defending our democracy.

It's time for some (actual) legitimate political discourse, as Joe and Alex start with the RNC's revisionist history of the insurrection. Republicans are moving closer and closer to the point of no return, and even Mike Pence is speaking up. What's the latest in the fight for democracy? Then, a deep dive into the surprising win for Democrats with redistricting across the country. What looked like disaster may be opportunity, starting this year in the midterms. With hope for a return to "normal" in the next phase of COVID, plus a strong economy and good news with redistricting, is the worst behind us? Could Biden start to regain some steam and help push Democrats in the midterms? What other factors (SCOTUS) could help get voters energized?
