On Thursday, Congressman Ro Khanna held a hearing in which he proposed ending subsidies for the oil and gas industry. This is in agreement with President Biden's plans on climate change.

The Rachel Maddow Show Wisconsin's Ron Johnson has spent more than a year peddling irresponsible rhetoric about the COVID pandemic. But his new rhetoric about vaccinations made matters much worse. Critics accused Shaun King of misrepresenting Maddow's report and comments, and ridiculed him on Twitter. King has been a controversial social media activist who has been accused of orchestrating online mobs to accost innocent people associated with his activism on behalf of the African American community.

Of course, Republicans are horrified. Mah precious oil and gas subsidies!
And one Republican wanted folks to know how important oil is to every beneficial product, including..panty hose.
Representative Yvette Harrell (New Mexico, guess which party) said that without fossil fuels, we wouldn't have the plastic to make our computers, eyeglasses, and also pantyhose.
Chris Hayes Twitter
Maddow's show tweeted, 'Won't someone please think of the panty hose?'
Just got around watching the Maddow clip on Yvette Herrell and panty hose. I just want the world to know I am from her District and I no way in hell voted for that idiot.

When even Rachel Maddow loses hope..
On Thursday's show, Maddow covered the fact that Arizona Republicans are holding an audit of the 2020 election ballots from Maricopa County, where most of the state's voter's live.
Why? Well, what else do they have to LIVE FOR?
RACHEL MADDOW: You know, Joe Biden is President of the United States. Whatever they do in Arizona is not going to make him 'not' President of the United States. But what they are doing in Arizona, what has Trump World, like, electrified right now will have 'Trump reinstated as president and Biden as a usurper' or whatever. what they started today at the Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Phoenix is going to be used by Trump World to be claimed forever that Trump secretly won Arizona and he secretly won the election and Biden is illegitimate as president. ..We are never going to get away from this mess. I mean, eventually we'll all get old enough that it will age out, but we are just never going to get this particular dollop of stink off our proverbial shoe.
