Episode 148

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.
