Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with footage that shows that Mitch McConnell knew, back in 2021, that Trump can face criminal charges. Now, Trump's lawyer is making the absurd argument that a president can commit all kinds of heinous crimes, and remain immune from prosecution forever, unless he's impeached and convicted. Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) joins Joy Reid with his analysis. Also in this episode, Trump's rhetoric is having dangerous consequences, as both special counsel Jack Smith and Judge Tanya Chutkan are targets of "swatting." Next, Trump's big hope for 2024? He says he hopes the U.S. economy crashes sometime soon, which, of course, would likely leave huge numbers of his supporters broke. All this and more in this edition of The Reidout on MSNBC.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with breaking news from the presidential race. Donald Trump's most persistent critic on the campaign trail, Chris Christie, has announced that he is dropping out of 2024. Also in this episode, we examine how Trump has often claimed to have unlimited power as president.

All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with Ted Cruz's endorsement of Donald Trump for president--the same Trump who ridiculed the looks of his wife and accused his father of killing JFK. Cruz is just one of many Republicans, whom Joy calls "cowardly," who have signed on to Trump's authoritarian revenge tour, at the mere price of their dignity. Also in this episode, Joy examines the alarming parallels between President Biden and Lyndon Johnson as each man faced re-election, including their roles in two very unpopular conflicts.

Next, with a border deal on the table, which Senate Republicans say is a great deal, Trump's MAGA caucus in the House is saying no, because they want to continue to stoke fear ahead of the fall election. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

Moms for Liberty co-founder Tiffany Justice joins Joy Reid on Moms for Liberty seeking influence over public school library content and more.

All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with Ron DeSantis suspending his presidential campaign and endorsing Donald Trump, putting an end to one of the biggest campaign failures in political history.

Wade, the landmark 1973 Supreme Court decision enshrining women's bodily autonomy, which was killed by Republicans. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with Nikki Haley pressing on despite basically impossible odds. Yet, our expert guests say that this is not a hard decision, because she has the support of the billionaire donor class who want all the Trump tax cuts for the super rich, but cannot stomach Donald Trump.

All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with the dramatic breaking news out of a New York City courtroom that has likely put a damper on Donald Trump's weekend. A nine member jury has reached its verdict in Trump's second defamation trial brought by writer E. Jean Carroll. With the unanimous verdict Donald Trump is on the hook for just over $83 million dollars in damages. The question remains, is the amount high enough to keep Trump from continuing his attacks against E. Jean Carroll, or will we be back in a court room again for a third defamation trial? Joy and her expert guests analyze this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut asking us to commemorate that it has been 63 years since President Eisenhower's farewell speech, as those words come back to haunt us with fears growing of a regional war in the Middle East. This after three U.S. troops were killed in an attack on a base in Jordan, with the White House blaming "Iran-backed militant groups." Plus, E. Jean Carroll spoke out for the first time since the $83 million verdict against Donald Trump. Trump reportedly does not pay his lawyers, so how likely is Ms. Carroll to ever to see that money?

Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) joins Joy with more. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

One of those governors, former Republican Gov. Marc Racicot of Montana, joins Joy to discuss. Also in this episode, while lacking the slightest evidence of a crime or misdemeanor, House Republicans move forward with plans to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, while simultaneously obstructing efforts to address the border issue. Plus, Rep. Cori Bush joins Joy on the DOJ investigation of her, and her reaction to the Republican Congressman who called her husband a "thug," and said Bush is "loud" and needs to "tone it down."

President Biden released a statement, saying in part: "Our response began today. It will continue at times and places of our choosing. The United States does not seek conflict in the Middle East or anywhere else in the world. But let all those who might seek to do us harm know this: if you harm an American, we will respond." We bring you more breaking news coverage in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The Reid out with breaking news from Captiol Hill, moments after The House failed to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas by just two votes--an embarassing loss for Speaker Mike Johnson. Then we turn to the three-judge panel on the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously ruling on Tuesday in its crushing legal takedown that, counter to Donald Trump's stated arguments, presidents do not have complete and absolute immunity from criminal prosecution, and thus Trump must face trial for his alleged attempts to overturn the 2020 election. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with the historic case argued before the United States Supreme Court on Thursday. The question before the court? Can the state of Colorado keep the former president, who that state found credibly liable for inciting an insurrection, off the ballot in November. On the face of it, it seems like a pretty simple question, but it is a question that has never come before the Court, and the debate centers on Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which was written by Congress in 1866 and ratified in 1868. Joy Reid and her panel discuss this, plus they preview a just-announced press conference from President Joe Biden, responding to the findings of the special counsel investigation of classified documents found in his possession.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with Elise Stefanik, who seem to know that going full election-denier will boost her chances to win "The Apprentice: Autocracy," season one, with the dubious prize of becoming Trump's running mate, "hang Mike Pence" threats notwithstanding.

All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
