Thom discusses Trump’s big win in Nevada and the Democratic town hall with The District Sentinel’s Sam Sacks and progressive strategist Mike Lux, the root cause of America’s student debt problem with radio host and activist Richard Eskow, and how scientists are baffled about what’s going on in the arctic with professor and author Michael Mann.

Robert Kennedy Jr., Hudson Riverkeeper/Waterkeeper Alliance joins Thom. On Saturday - a new ceasefire is set to go into effect in Syria. This could mark the beginning of the end of that country's brutal civil war - but could it also mark the beginning of the end of America's disastrous adventures in the Middle East?

Vince Coglianese, The Daily Caller & Brendan Fischer, Center for Media and Democracy/ALEC Exposed & Sarah Westwood, Washington Examiner all join Thom. From one example of out-of-control right-wing obstructionism to another... Senate Republicans unanimously agreed at a closed-door meeting of the Judiciary Committee today not to hold any hearings for President Obama's pick replace late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia. They want to wait until the next president takes office 11 months from now to consider a nominee. This - of course - flies in the face of the will of the American people - who elected Barack Obama to a full four-year term - and the teachings of Saint Ronnie of the Church of Republicanism - who thought it was totally acceptable to appoint a supreme court justice in his final year in office.

Do they have that little faith in the American prison system - a prison system that already houses hundreds of the world’s most dangerous terrorists - that they think it can’t handle a few dozen more? Or - considering the fact that most Guantanamo detainees probably didn’t do anything wrong and were just in the wrong place at the wrong time when they were captured - is this just an election year ploy to rile up a base that is now almost as Islamophobic as it is racist?

David Shuster, Al Jazeera America, joins Thom. With the Nevada caucuses in the rearview mirror - the race between Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton is heating up in South Carolina. Hillary Clinton was recently endorsed by Morgan Freeman - and the actor's famous voice is featured in this TV ad supporting the former secretary of state. And Bernie Sanders was endorsed by Spike Lee - who is featured in this ad from the Bernie campaign.

On the one hand - Hillary's sounding more and more like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren every day. On the other hand - the Republicans are all starting to sound like Trump. And it's all a sign that Americans are sick and tired of the political establishment.

Tonight’s Politics Panel discusses Obama’s plan to close Guantanamo Bay, McConnell’s refusal to hold hearings for Obama’s Supreme Court nominee, and Hillary’s move left. Thom discusses why the Arabs don’t want us in Syria with attorney and radio host Bobby Kennedy, the 2016 presidential race with Al Jazeera America's David Shuster, and in tonight’s Daily Take Thom discusses how Rubio is sounding more and more like Trump.

Alex Lawson, Social Security Works & Karl Frisch, Syndicated Columnist/Political Strategist join Thom. Whenever the mainstream corporate media talks about Bernie Sanders' policy proposals - they dismiss ideas like "free college" and "Medicare for All" as "free stuff" that lazy young people think they want - until they have to pay for it. But as Zach Cartwright points out over at USUncut - "It's Not 'Free Stuff' - It's Using Taxes to Fund What We Actually Need.

Tonight’s Progressive Roundtable discusses the Nevada results and if Bernie can rebound in South Carolina, Bernie’s top five differences with Hillary, and whether it’s time to finally admit that Donald Trump may be our next president. Thom talks fossil fuels and the presidential candidates with Greenpeace USA’s Charlie Cray and in tonight’s Daily Take Thom discusses how we need to start allowing Americans to fail again.

Charlie Cray, Greenpeace USA, joins Thom. As the Democratic race for president has narrowed - so too have the differences between the two remaining candidates. So why is Hillary Clinton still accepting donations from the fossil fuel industry?

Alex Lawson, Social Security Works & Karl Frisch, Syndicated Columnist/Political Strategist all join Thom. Can the Bernie campaign continue to build huge amounts of grassroots support and turn out new energy from young and first-time voters to propel him to the nomination?

Ignore all the bluster from Donald Trump - American's don't need to win again - they actually need the ability to fail. I'll tell you why...

Horace Cooper, National Center for Public Policy Research & Jan Frel, Alternet & Bryan Pruitt, RedState all join Thom. Dirty political tricks are nothing new in a presidential campaign - but Ted Cruz is taking political deceit to the next level.

Amy Goodman, Democracy Now/The Silenced Majority: Stories of Uprisings, Occupations, Resistance, and Hope & Rev. D. Alexander Bullock, Change Agent Consortium join Thom. The Flint Water crisis has exposed the dark truth behind Michigan's little dictator law. But could it also be a preview of what America would like in a future under Republican austerity?
