Tuesday on MSNBC’s “All In,” Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) accused Republican lawmakers have become a “cult to the President Donald Trump’s personality,” adding they were unwilling to hold him accountable.

Hayes asked, “We’re in the midst of a pandemic. There have been documented systemic failures by the federal government at multiple points in this.

What does that say to you about the status of oversight for what is the largest piece of spending legislation I’ve ever seen?”
