Guest hosts Ana Kasparian, Michael Shure and Michael Hastings, Current contributor and BuzzFeed correspondent, talk with journalist David Sirota about Sen. John McCain’s tough questions during Chuck Hagel’s secretary of defense confirmation hearings. Sirota says, “[Hagel] is perceived as such a threat to the idea of what the Republicans have stood for. Here you have a guy who’s saying a lot of the things that Democrats have said, a lot of things frankly that progressives have said … and the problem for Republicans is that he’s a Republican voice saying those things. He is arguably a bigger threat to the Republican brand than any Democrat could be.”
