investigator plus a year on with the war in ukraine, how much american support remains? especially when republicans are on the host too and new republican presidential candidate nikki haley is to try and of indian immigrants. exactly where does she stand on the issue of immigration? you might or might not good evening. i am mehdi hasan, on saturday, on saturday, the michigan republican party still licking their wounds from an embarrassing midterm defeat, selected a new state share. having seen the democrats back in november with a trifecta of power back in the state of the full legislature for the first time in four decades, we might think the michigan gop and go for a more moderate leader. but, don t be silly, they just doubled down on crazy and instead they picked christina crimea as the party chair. trump secretary of state who despite a 14 point loss refused to concede, or maybe remember her as claiming demonic procession was real and could somehow be sexually t
