Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with conservatives clutching their pearls over the world's most iconic doll, Barbie, whose movie smashed a glass ceiling when Greta Gerwig made history by earning the biggest domestic opening by a woman director, ever. Plus, Ron desantis is not backing down from his support for teaching children that slavery was not only not bad--it was an awesome job skills program! Also in this episode, judging by Donald Trump's social media, he may apparently believe another indictment is imminent. We have new information on when that indictment might be handed down. We also condemn Texas Gov. Greg Abbott's border cruelty including allegations of pushing migrants into the water, and defiance of a Justice Department order to remove dangerous barriers in the Rio Grande.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with how in 2023 Donald Trump is now the apparent poster child for the "defund the police" movement, delegitimizing the Department of Justice, the FBI, and more. Plus we spotlight Rev. Wheeler Parker, Jr., who just honored his late cousin Emmett Till, alongside President Biden and Vice President Harris, on what would have been Till's 82nd birthday. Meanwhile, the right-wing continues to vandalize the history of Black people in America. Also in this episode, Joy and her guests examine how Donald Trump appears to be planming for his next indictment by making threats of violence, experts say, with special counsel Jack Smith reportedly interested in Donald Trump's sudden change of heart about election security in 2020. Finally, we analyze the trailing Republican presidential field, which is failing at defeating the leading indicted candidate in Trump.

Joy Reid leads this airing of The ReidOut tonight the two portrayals of Donald Trump during his life as a public figure, as the reportedly imminent indictment related to his involvement in Jan. 6 from the office of the special counsel looms. Plus, we examine the House Republicans' apparent revenge agenda kicking into high gear with a new obsession to impeach President Biden for an offense that puzzles many. Additionally, Rudy Giuliani has admitted to lying about two Georgia election workers, conceding that he made "false" statements about them. This turned their worlds upside down and put their lives at risk. The lawyer for those women joins Joy in this episode. We also analyze how pro-choice supporters got enough signatures to put reproductive rights on the ballot in Ohio. While polls show these rights have the backing of a clear majority of voters, if Republicans get their way, that may not matter.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with breaking news in the multiple special counsel investigations into Donald Trump. A superseding indictment has added a new charge against Donald Trump: one additional count of willful retention of national defense information. It also adds a third defendant to the case, alongside Trump and his longtime valet Waltine Nauta. Carlos De Oliveira was the head of maintenance at Trump's Florida resort and reportedly helped Nauta move boxes of documents from the infamous storage room at a key moment, a day before prosecutors came to retrieve those remaining classified documents. He is facing four charges including conspiracy to obstruct justice, concealing an object, corruptly concealing a document, and false statements. This comes as Trump is likely facing his third indictment as a former president.

In this episode of The ReidOut, we discuss the document outlined in the new, superseding indictment, and reports that special counsel Jack Smith has this document. Plus, we dig deeper into the alleged words of a Trump employee, that the "boss" wants the server deleted. This Trump employee is now the third defendant in the classified documents case, leading to additional obstruction counts against the former president. Finally, wouldn't it be refreshing if Ron DeSantis could admit that teaching that there were benefits to slavery for enslaved Africans is a mistake that needs to be corrected? Yet, he is doubling and tripling down on it--and blaming Vice President Harris for the controversy.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with reports that Donald Trump is likely waiting to see whether Fulton County, Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis and/or special counsel Jack Smith will increase his number of indictments to three or even four before the end of summer. Plus, we examine the first court appearance of Carlos De Oliveira, the Mar-a-Lago manager accused of scheming with Donald Trump to cover up his purloined classified documents. Also in this episode, Joy and her expert guests critique the Ron DeSantis campaign. Polls show DeSantis trailing Trump by a wide margin, with a former supporter saying Ron just does not understand the game and does not connect with voters. Finally, we spotlight the controversy of Samuel Alito saying Congress has no business imposing ethics rules on the Supreme Court. Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse joins Joy on the effort to stop him and Clarence Thomas from accepting fancy gifts from their wealthy associates.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut as we continue to follow the breaking news that Donald Trump has received indictment number three courtesy of the DC grand jury investigating his efforts to overturn the 2020 election. Never has a president of the United States refused to relinquish power until Trump. Never has a former president come up with a conspiracy that involves having their vice president overturn the will of the people through the use of a fake electors scheme until Trump. Never has a former president incited an insurrection with armed extremists to storm the U.S. Capitol until Trump. No U.S. president has ever been indicted, before Trump. For Trump this is indictment number three, and in many ways it is the most historically significant one. Chair of the former House January 6th Committee, Rep. Bennie Thompson, reacts to these historical developments, joining our expert guests on this breaking news edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with what is likely to be not only the most significant criminal case against the twice-impeached, thrice-indicted former president, but also the most important trial of our lifetimes--the United States of America v. Donald J. Trump. On Thursday, Trump will be arraigned in a Washington, D.C. courtroom. He is expected to plead not guilty to four criminal counts. This latest indictment of the former president, handed down by special counsel Jack Smith, is an incredibly detailed and damning account of an attempt to subvert democracy and forcibly overturn the 2020 election. What Jack Smith lays out in the 45-page indictment is a frightening look at just how close we came to losing American democracy over two years ago.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut following Thursday's breaking news out of Washington, DC. Donald Trump, for the third time this year, entered a courthouse, stood before a judge, and pleaded "not guilty" to his alleged crimes. Unlike the previous two instances, the location of Thursday's arraignment tells its own story, because the former president essentially returned to the scene of the alleged crime. The DC federal courthouse stands in the shadow of the U.S. Capitol where Trump's efforts to subvert our democracy, following his failed 2020 presidential bid, culminated in the insurrection at that very building. Sitting just feet away from Trump as he entered his not guilty plea was special counsel Jack Smith. The next hearing was set for August 28 before Judge Tanya Chutkan who will oversee the trial. Rep. Jamie Raskin and more join The ReidOut to discuss this historic third indictment of former president Donald Trump.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with one of the most striking aspects of Donald Trump's third arraignment on Thursday--the man who showed up in a Washington courtroom that day was basically alone. Plus, after all those years of "lock her up," Trump and his rapidly shrinking inner circle apparently do not see the hypocrisy of whining about the possibility of Trump going to prison, as his lawyers test out long-shot defenses for the serious charges he faces. Then, Soumya Dayananda, former Senior Investigative Counsel for the Jan. 6 Committee, joins Joy with her thoughts on Trump's third indictment on 2020 election interference charges linked to Jan. 6.

Joy Reid leads this edition of The ReidOut bringing you a first look at Donald Trump's lawyers' formal response to the special counsel's request for a protective order in the 2020 election interference case. Plus, we are on the eve of a critical referendum in Ohio designed specifically to make it harder to protect abortion rights. Meanwhile, a judge has ruled that the abortion ban in Texas goes too far. We bring you critical analysis on this important issue. Finally, our new digital series on our ReidOut Blog, 'Hip-Hop is Universal,' celebrating the 50th anniversary of this revolutionary art form, debuts today!

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with Donald Trump once again vowing to blow up America's institutions if he somehow finds his way back to the Oval Office, as his lawyers fight in court for the right to potentially intimidate witnesses in the lead-up to his criminal trials. Plus, polls are closing in Ohio in the special election designed to limit democracy and give Republicans minority control over critical issues like abortion. We bring you the latest. Next, we highlight the brawl on an Alabama dock that launched a thousand memes. Why is this fight resonating so much? The mayor of Montgomery, Alabama, Steven Reed, joins us with an update.

Monique Worrell was elected state attorney by the voters of Florida. Now Ron DeSantis is using his authoritarian powers to remove her from office basically because he can, critics say. State Attorney Worrell joins Joy in this episode. Also, there are reportedly new details on a possible fourth indictment against Donald Trump in Georgia, which could come in a matter of days, including what Fani Willis could charge him with, plus who his co-defendants might be. Plus, there was another big win for democracy, as a proposed constitutional change in Ohio, meant to thwart the will of the public on abortion and other major issues, lost by a mile.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with what is apparently Donald Trump's emerging defense, that the lawyers allegedly said he could do it, and what it tells us about the emerging crisis of lawyering in America. Plus, we cover new reporting that came out on Thursday on even more lavish gifts bestowed upon Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas by his wealthy right-wing benefactors. Finally, Rev. Al Sharpton discusses his exclusive interview with Vice President Kamala Harris.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with the possible scenario that Donald Trump could be declared the winner of the 2024 election. But, what if Democrats in key states then object to certifying his electors based on the Fourteenth Amendment? Our legal expert has more. Plus, Donald Trump claimed earlier this week that no one is going to stop him from speaking about his criminal case. Yet, on Friday, Judge Tanya Chutkin laid down the law, telling Trump's lawyer that Trump's words will have consequences, and that the First Amendment is not absolute. Also, Attorney General Merrick Garland has appointed a special counsel to investigate Hunter Biden. Meanwhile, Republicans are complaining about it after spending months demanding exactly this.

In this episode of The ReidOut we discuss the fourth indictment of Donald Trump, minutes before it was handed down, this time for election interference in Georgia. Also in this episode, Judge Tanya Chutkan warned Trump against making inflammatory statements, which he proceeded to ignore. What, if anything, will be done about it? Plus, Trump still appears to be the Republican party's inevitable nominee. His dominance over DeSantis and the rest of the Republican field was on full display this weekend in Iowa.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with Donald Trump drawing his fourth indictment. That is four more indictments than any prior president of the United States has ever faced. Plus, we cover the apparent irony of how Rudy Giuliani, who put dozens of mobsters behind bars using RICO, is now indicted under a similar RICO statute along with Donald Trump in Georgia. Indicted with them is former Trump White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, who could face the same fate as Nixon's chief of staff, Bob Haldeman, who went to prison for helping to carry out his boss' crimes. With Trump now facing 91 felony counts, most of his rivals for the Republican presidential nomination still cannot muster the courage to condemn him.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with a question: What is a gang? Our guests join us to explain why the RICO statute in Georgia is fitting for the crimes Donald Trump and his alleged co-conspirators have been charged with in the state of Georgia. Plus we bring you breaking news: Donald Trump has requested an April 2026 trial date for his federal indictment for 2020 election interference charges connected to the Jan. 6 insurrection. Also, we highlight the latest in a series of horrifying post-Roe realities as a 13-year-old rape survivor has been forced to give birth after abortion was effectively outlawed in her state. Finally, we bring you the latest from Hawaii as the death toll continues to climb and officials begin to ask whether there was anything more they could have done to save more lives.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with the clearest picture yet of the expansive plot Donald Trump and his allies allegedly unleashed after he lost the 2020 election. Plus, we look ahead to next week's Republican primary debate, in which Trump now says he will not participate. Also, Morgan Freeman joined Joy to talk about his new documentary on the first Black tank battalion to fight in World War II.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with the manhunt for a man named Christopher Worrell. He is a Florida Proud Boy convicted of seven felony counts for his actions on January 6th, including physically attacking police officers and pepper spraying them. Meanwhile, Trump supporters are doubling and tripling down on the election lies that likely made Trump an accused felon. Also in this episode, we examine what many see as the rise and fall of Trump co-defendant Rudy Giuliani. Now reports say he is begging Trump for help to pay his mounting legal bills. Finally, the Tennessee House voting in a special session to approve new rules appearing to limit free speech and peaceful protest is decried by Tennessee St. Rep. Justin Jones, who joins us tonight.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with news of constitutional scholar John Eastman and another Donald Trump co-defendant surrendering on Tuesday in Atlanta. Plus, we bring you breaking news in the classified documents case as Mar-a-Lago's IT employee changes his lawyer and his story. This could be very bad news for Donald Trump. Also, there is new reporting on Mark Meadows' delicate dance with special counsel Jack Smith. Meanwhile, DA Fani Willis is warning Meadows to surrender by Friday in Georgia or face possible arrest.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with Rudy Giuliani surrendering today in Atlanta. He is one of a growing list of Donald Trump's co-defendants who are being booked, fingerprinted and getting mugshots via the Fulton County Sheriff's office as Friday's deadline for surrender looms. Also in this episode, stunning news out of Russia as Yvegeny Proghozin, the man who led the June mutiny against the Kremlin, is now believed to be dead in a plane crash. Plus, Elon Musk's reported influence over the U.S. government is discussed by Ronan Farrow, who investigated Musk's businesses and more for a new exposé. He joins us tonight on his reporting.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with the defendant identified at the Fulton County jail as P01135809. This is the real Donald John Trump. Being booked with a mug shot on charges of alleged election interference in Georgia may be the worst humiliation of Donald Trump's life. Meanwhile, the usual supporters are rushing to Trump's defense, vowing to investigate the investigators, and threatening civil war. Plus, Dr. Bernice King joins us, as we mark 60 years since the March on Washington, on leading conservatives' misappropriation of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s words from her father's "I Have a Dream" speech.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with news that on Monday the judge overseeing Donald Trump's federal election interference case scheduled the trial to begin on March 4 of next year--just one day before Super Tuesday. Plus, Ron DeSantis was booed by his constituents in Florida at a vigil after Saturday's mass shooting in Jacksonville, which was committed by a self-avowed racist, a phrase many critics say Ron DeSantis would never say. Florida St. Rep. Angie Nixon, who stood next to DeSantis at that vigil resulting in a powerful photo, joins Joy Reid to discuss. Also, Vivek Ramaswamy has called Rep. Ayanna Pressley and author Ibram X. Kendi "modern grand wizards of the modern KKK." Both of these esteemed people, who were maligned by the 2024 presidential candidate, speak out on his attacks with Joy Reid.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut noticing that since Donald Trump came along in 2016, leading Republicans insist that because of him, Republicanism is booming among Black people, despite there being no evidence of that. We also continue to point out the absurdity of the concurrent idea that Donald Trump is just like a persecuted Black teenager in the 1930s, as many on the right also push the racist narrative that being an accused felon gives Trump "street cred" with African-Americans. Plus, we cover how Tennessee St. Rep. Justin Jones has again been silenced by Tennessee House GOP leaders for passionately fighting for gun reform after a mass murder at a Nashville school. St. Rep. Jones joins Joy to speak out.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with the alleged architect of the plan to keep Donald Trump in power after he lost, John Eastman. Meanwhile, Rudy Giuliani has been slapped with a summary judgment finding him liable for defaming Georgia election workers Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss. The courts will now decide how much he will have to pay to compensate the mother and daughter for their ongoing pain and distress. Plus, Joy spotlights what many experts see as Republicans' new tactic of trying to upend democracy by targeting election officials and judges who push back against their false claims of widespread voter fraud. Finally, in the wake of another campus shooting, UNC's student newspaper delivers a gut-wrenching front page that reveals what it is really like to be a member of the "Run, Hide, Fight" generation. That paper's editor-in-chief joins us.

Meanwhile, New York State Attorney General Tish James alleges that Donald Trump has been inflating his level of wealth. Plus, another pair of Proud Boys found out how much time they will be spending behind bars for seditious conspiracy. Finally, we discuss how some Supreme Court justices have filed new financial disclosure forms, after being caught in ethics scandals.

In this episode of The Reidout we cover how former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio received a long sentence on Tuesday for seditious conspiracy. Also in this episode, we bring you new reporting saying that special counsel Jack Smith is looking into Donald Trump's fundraising off of false voter fraud claims, as some of Trump's co-defendants may be getting ready to throw Trump under the bus, according to reports. Plus, the extreme gerrymandered maps that helped Republicans win the House are now rapidly getting struck down by the courts. Alabama is just the latest state to feel the judges' wrath.

In this episode of The ReidOut we cover how prosecutors in the Georgia election interference case say they are ready to try all 19 co-defendants together, including Donald Trump, but the judge does not seem to be on board with that plan. Plus, we bring you new reporting on the warning Donald Trump received from his own lawyer that the FBI could search his Mar-a-Lago estate, if Trump continued to refuse to hand over classified documents. Also, our experts weigh in on the controversy surrounding the 61 "Cop City" activists indicted in Georgia on RICO charges.

In this edition of The Reidout we cover how Fulton County DA Fani Willis has released a blistering response to House Judiciary Committee chairman Jim Jordan's decision to investigate her investigation. Also in this episode, the libraries of 13 former presidents, both Republican and Democrat, have issued an unprecedented warning about the state of U.S. democracy as we see an uptick in violent rhetoric from politicians on the right. Plus, Colorado voters have filed a lawsuit to keep Donald Trump off the ballot raising the question: Can the 14th amendment truly bar him from becoming president again?

In this episode of The ReidOut, we get our first look at the Fulton County special grand jury report. They apparently believed that far more than the 19 alleged co-conspirators in the Georgia election interference case should have been criminally charged, including Senator Lindsey Graham. Also in this episode, it's called "Project 2025"--and it's a revealing and horrifying look at what many leading entities on the right have in store for America should Donald Trump return to the White House.

In this episode of The ReidOut we discuss how even some conservative people in Congress know it is nonsensical that Republicans like Marjorie Taylor Greene are pushing to impeach President Biden before even establishing the smallest hint of wrongdoing. Also in this episode, we share what we are learning about the Mar-a-Lago IT worker who could be a key witness for prosecutors in Donald Trump's classified documents case. Plus, we have new reporting on the Citizens United Supreme Court ruling, and how Ginni Thomas, wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, and right-wing Court whisperer Leonard Leo apparently seemed to have a jump-start in utilizing that ruling.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with the news that House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has directed the House to open an impeachment inquiry into President Biden. Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Maryland) joins us to discuss the controversy of the House getting ready to launch an impeachment inquiry against Biden despite zero evidence of wrongdoing. Plus, Joy shares her observations as she returns from a trip to Spain and Ghana on the very troublesome history of organized religion here at home and around the world. "Including right now with the MAGA right using it to justify almost every kind of abusive, anti-democracy behaviour," Joy explains. Get more of Joy Reid's analysis in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with the New York Times reporting that Marjorie Talyor Greene and Donald Trump discussed the House plan to impeach President Biden.

Tommy Tuberville is single-handedly causing a crisis within the U.S. military. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with the news that Mitt Romney is the latest old school Republican to announce he has apparently had enough of the modern GOP. Romney also alleges that a very large portion of his caucus does not even believe in the Constitution. Also in this episode, the Fulton County judge has agreed to sever two of the 19 co-defendants' cases, as the number of violent threats grows against officials in that county and against federal law enforcement. Our legal expert has more. Plus, we address how Kevin McCarthy is apparently doing what he thinks he has to do in order to hang onto his reportedly flailing speakership, as President Biden continues governing.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with breaking news involving the DC criminal case against Donald Trump. Late on Friday, special counsel Jack Smith asked a judge for a narrow gag order against Trump in the election interference case claiming that Trump's inflammatory remarks have led to threats against witnesses and could prejudice the jury pool. Also, Sarah Collins Rudolph, survivor of the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing in Alabama and sister of bombing victim Addie Mae Collins, joins Joy Reid as we remember this tragic event 60 years later.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with what might apparently be one of the hardest jobs in America--being one of Donald Trump's lawyers. Trump's attorney just last month said that Trump cannot be held responsible for his alleged crimes, because he was only listening to the advice of lawyers and learned constitutional scholars. Yet, this past weekend, Trump himself said it was all his idea. Our legal experts have more. Also in this episode, we bring you new reporting on the alleged nexus of Justice Brett Kavanaugh and dark money millionaires in Alabama's open defiance of rulings on unfairly drawn legislative maps. Plus, Joy's former Republican guest answers the question: Does the GOP have no shame? Lauren Boebert's musical theater viewing scandal is just the latest in a string of bad behaviour by prominent members of the party that many say preaches often about family values.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with the crisis of American democracy--on the world stage. President Biden vowed on Tuesday at the UN to defend democracy abroad and at home, where he warned that Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans are determined to destroy it. Also in this episode, on National Voter Registration Day, Pennsylvania has made it much easier to register to vote, as a truly stunning number of election deniers are now overseeing the vote in their states. Meanwhile, with the clock ticking towards a possible government shutdown, there was a new setback today for Kevin McCarthy, who has apparently completely lost control of the Republican caucus.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut as we are staring down the barrel of a potential government shutdown that could paralyze our economy. Meanwhile, many House Republicans remained apparently fixated on Hunter Biden on Wednesday, as Attorney General Merrick Garland appeared before Chairman Jim Jordan's House Judiciary Committee to defend the work of the Department of Justice.

Plus, a new book from author Michael Wolff alleges to reveal what was going on behind the cameras at Fox, how it enabled Donald Trump, and why Rupert Murdoch ousted Tucker Carlson.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with Sen. Tuberville saying that Wednesday night's confirmation of our new chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff means that Democrats "blinked" on his blockade of military promotions. Joy explains that in her view what he really means is that he was outmaneuvered by Chuck Schumer and capitulated on his stand on abortion. Plus, we cover former Joint Chiefs chairman, General Mark Milley, reportedly unloading on his former boss Donald Trump, saying he did all he could do to stop Trump from undermining the Constitution. Additionally, the GOP enabling Tommy Tuberville to block critical military promotions is slammed by Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who tells Joy that the Senate GOP has, "mumbled and fumbled and let Senator Tuberville continue to inflict growing trouble and pain on our national defense." Finally, Leslie Jones joins Joy to talk about her new memoir.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with a ProPublica report on Supreme Court members drawing fresh scrutiny for some alleged ethics lapses.

Maxwell Frost about a major development from the White House on Friday on gun violence. Additionally, Howard Stern has conservatives clutching their pearls by proclaiming himself "woke" and calling out a famous former friend for his sexist remarks.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with the countdown--ending Saturday at midnight--until the federal government will likely shut down. Rep. Summer Lee (D-PA) joins Joy to dicuss the demands of the House GOP extremists fueling the likely shutdown. We also remember Sen. Dianne Feinstein, whose passing away was announced on Friday. The longest-serving woman in Senate history leaves behind a legacy as a fierce advocate for gun safety measures and equal rights.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with breaking coverage of the war in Israel, and the fighting that has gripped the world for the past 72 hours. Israel has declared all-out war on Hamas after the group launched a devastating surprise attack from Gaza killing 700 Israelis, many of whom were attending an outdoor concert, and abducting dozens of people, including children. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed his country today, saying his military would intensify its operations against Hamas and that its attacks on Gaza are "just the beginning." More than 680 people have died in Gaza, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry. Eleven Americans have been killed in the conflict and more may be missing. More than 100 people have been kidnapped. Hamas has threatened to start executing hostages if Israel bombs civilian houses in Gaza without warning.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with day four of the Israel-Hamas war, which now includes a hostage crisis. The surprise attack by the Gaza-based militant group Hamas shocked Israelis and the world, after the group launched an attack on a concert in southern Israel near the Gaza border, and armed men kidnapped or murdered Israeli civilians in their homes and cars in several border areas. Joy and her guests bring you the latest news and analysis.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with two pieces of breaking news. As the Israel-Hamas war escalates, in Washington, D.C. major political drama is unfolding on Capitol Hill. During a moment of international crisis, the House remains without a speaker as the Republican majority is unable to garner enough support for their nominee. Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that he is forming an emergency unity government in the wake of the Hamas attack, adding two opposition leaders to his cabinet. In a news briefing, Netanyahu said the newly formed government would "crush" Hamas. This comes as Israel has intensified its retaliation against Hamas, relentlessly bombarding Gaza with missiles, leaving the streets unrecognizable, and entire neighborhoods destroyed. NBC News' Richard Engel joins Joy Reid with more live from Ashdod, Israel on a possible ground invasion of Gaza by Israeli forces.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with Israel and Gaza on the brink.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with an unprecedented juxtaposition of crises--an intensifying Israel-Hamas war with President Biden en route to the region, and with Republicans in the House of Representatives still trying to elect a speaker after two weeks without one.
