American Atheists at CPAC21m · Sam discusses how Republicans give the Supreme Court a taste of congressional paralysis; the rape kit backlog; then Full Frontal follows a delegation from the American Atheists on what seems like a doomed mission: to spread their message to the right-wing attendees of CPAC, the Conservative Political Action Conference.

10. Guantanamo Bay21m · Kasich and Cruz pool their desperation to force Donald Trump into a contested convention. Replacing genocide practitioner Andrew Jackson with slave liberator Harriet Tubman shouldn't be controversial.

Superdelegates don't look so bad when they alone can stop you from face-planting in front of the entire electorate.

State midterms are even more boring than general midterms—and maybe more important. Case in point, North Carolina.

Michelle Branch closes tonight's show with more of her musical farewell to Ted Cruz, who will be missed in a perverse kind of way.

Check out our new title sequence, inspired by Frank Schaeffer. It's nightmare fuel for the whole family!
14. Gary Johnson Part 121m · As primary season draws to a close, we take a walk down memory lane, climb memory bridge, and throw ourselves into the memory ocean.

15. Libertarian Convention21m · What can we learn from the mass shooting in Orlando? Whatever it is, you can count on our elected officials to ignore it.

So are we.
16. Tribal Courts21m · Hey, NRA! Are those most of our elected GOP members of Congress in your pocket? Or am I just too depressed to finish this joke? Up next: a look at how Donald Trump is making crackpot paranoid fascist slogans great again. The U.S. is taking away the right of Native Americans to hear cases in their own tribal courts, and we're not even giving them any smallpox. We conclude with an act of kindness and compassion more powerful than any high-capacity assault rifle.
17. Muslim-American Reporting21m · It used to be Brits only drove on the wrong side of things. Then they voted on Brexit.
