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?

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

Joy leads this episode of The ReidOut with the fallout from The Supreme Court's ruling on Donald Trump's presidential immunity. Monday's ruling from the Court effectively decided that Trump is immune from prosecution for any act he took while he was president, including ordering the Justice Department to draw up fake voter fraud allegations in order to help him steal the election that he lost. Joy and her panel of experts discuss this and the future of autocracy in the United States, if Trump wins a second presidential term.

Joy is joined by one of America's most powerful women ever, Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi, to discuss this and the historic presidential candidacy of Vice President Kamala Harris. Also tonight, as the Harris campaign picks up momentum and a historic endorsement, we need to have a conversation about how the media covers Trump.

Tonight on The ReidOut, Joy Reid leads with a tale of two campaigns: excitement and engagement from Vice President Kamala Harris, contrasted with a lazy, low-energy Trump campaign filled with conspiracy theories, including a particularly delusional and embarrassing new one.

Also tonight, a significant step forward in the fight for reproductive rights as two more states add the issue to the November ballot, including one critical battleground. Plus, we expose Project 2025, the plot to roll back civil rights and force America back to the pre-Civil Rights era.

Plus, the fight over book banning continues, with a Louisiana librarian, who has faced years of harassment for opposing censorship, now joining us to discuss her new book. Additionally, we highlight the power of the Latino vote, with over 36 million voters, as both campaigns vie for this significant and diverse constituency.

Plus, we'll discuss the tragic story of Wally Howard, Jr., a murdered Syracuse police officer, whose killer was released by Trump in the final hours of his presidency, only to commit another heinous crime.

Senator Elizabeth Warren and Governor Wes Moore also join us to discuss Trump's vengeful rhetoric and the alarming agendas Republicans are pursuing at the state level on issues like migrants, abortion restrictions, and voting rights.

Tonight on The ReidOut: Joy Reid leads with Donald Trump's debate disaster, which reached new heights of absurdity with his racist conspiracy theory about Haitian migrants, a narrative spread by JD Vance and other Republicans.

Tonight on The ReidOut, Joy Reid leads with Donald Trump and JD Vance defending their racist hate speech about Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, which is tearing the community apart and sparking violent threats, possibly by design. Meanwhile, there is news of a second apparent assassination attempt against Trump. The suspect does not fit Trump's usual narrative—not a liberal, minority, or migrant—but that has not stopped MAGA supporters from using the incident to stoke further division. Also, surprisingly strong polling results for Vice President Harris are coming in from states that were not expected to be competitive.

Tonight on The ReidOut, Joy Reid asks: Does the GOP even look like a party that is trying to win? A diminished Donald Trump confuses Alaska with Afghanistan, while MAGA stalwarts like Sarah Huckabee Sanders and John McEntee are busy smearing and ridiculing women. Perhaps they do not think they need votes because they have a different plan to seize power in January. Plus, Rachel Maddow joins us to discuss all this, along with her highly-anticipated new documentary "From Russia with Lev," premiering this Friday at 9 pm ET on MSNBC.

Plus, Republicans in North Carolina are stuck with Mark Robinson, who allegedly professed to be a "black Nazi" and enjoyed peeping on women, as their candidate for governor--and it is too late to take him off the ballot.

Tonight on The ReidOut, Joy Reid leads with the fact that Donald Trump continues to spout nonsense while Vice President Kamala Harris builds momentum with positive new polls and growing enthusiasm. Also tonight, we examine the significance of the star power on Harris's side, which seems to gnaw at Trump, who is left with has-been stars like Hulk Hogan, some celebrity's dad or brother, and a few other people who were briefly relevant 40 years ago. 

Tonight on The ReidOut, Joy Reid leads with Donald Trump making an extremely bizarre pitch to win over women voters, claiming that the adjudicated rapist will be their protector, just like he "protected" E. Jean Carroll, his three wives he cheated on, and the random women he grabs because, as he famously said, when you are a celebrity, "They let you do it." Also tonight, the Middle East is on the brink of a regional war as Israel and Hezbollah trade attacks, and the timing of this escalation is having a significant impact on the presidential race here in the U.S.

Tonight on The ReidOut, Joy Reid leads with the tale of two New Yorkers—both facing criminal indictments, both with a similar style. Could Democrat Eric Adams someday be a Republican presidential nominee? He certainly seems to meet MAGA ethical standards. Meanwhile, Vice President Kamala Harris takes the global stage, meeting with Ukrainian President Zelenskyy, while Donald Trump is busy selling watches, like a street scammer hawking fake Guccis. Plus, we explore the politics of hate, with Republican Congressman Clay Higgins making vile racist comments about Haitians, and Mark Robinson, also known as "The Black Nazi," reportedly making a disturbing comment about Reverend Al Sharpton. Reverend Al will be here to respond.

Tonight on The ReidOut, Joy Reid leads with a new filing from special counsel Jack Smith that reveals bombshell, never-before-seen evidence about Donald Trump and the election interference case. Also, we highlight the "damning non-answer" from JD Vance when he refused to say that Trump lost the 2020 election that he tried to steal. Meanwhile, while Vance was acting normal at the debate, Trump was spiraling out of control with increasingly confused, nonsensical, meandering remarks.

Tonight on The ReidOut: Vice President Kamala Harris appeared on "The View" earlier with a strong rebuke for Donald Trump, part of her wide-ranging media blitz that included "60 Minutes" last night, along with Howard Stern and Stephen Colbert today.

Tonight on The ReidOut: President Biden sent a message of support to Floridians as Hurricane Milton barrels towards the state, with landfall expected in the next few hours. Biden also condemned what he called the "un-American" misinformation about the federal storm response, directly calling out Trump and Marjorie Taylor Greene for spreading lies. Meanwhile, Trump's attempt to deny reports that he sent COVID tests to Putin was undercut by none other than his allies in the Kremlin, who confirmed that he did indeed send the tests. 

Tonight on The ReidOut: The coalition backing Kamala Harris is diverse enough to include both Liz Cheney and Barack Obama. The former president takes the stage this evening in Pittsburgh, and we bring that to you live. Meanwhile, Trump has a new excuse for dodging another debate, and it might be the most ridiculous one yet.

Tonight on The ReidOut: At a campaign stop in Phoenix, Arizona, Vice President Kamala Harris drew a sharp contrast between herself and her opponent, Donald Trump, who made a campaign stop in Colorado, emphasizing his focus on fearmongering about migrants.

Later in the show, we bring you live coverage as Vice President Harris addresses a rally in the battleground state of Pennsylvania. 

Tonight on The ReidOut, Joy Reid leads with new questions arising about Donald Trump's mental acuity after he appeared to get stuck on "pause" during a town hall, swaying to music for nearly 40 minutes.

Democratic Congressman Allred will join us tonight to discuss.

Joy Reid begins tonight's ReidOut with the election's final stretch. We take you to a star-studded rally near Atlanta, a must-win for Democrats, featuring Bruce Springsteen and Spike Lee, headlining for Kamala Harris and Barack Obama. It is the first time Harris and Obama are campaigning together for her presidential bid, although they have a long history of collaboration. Despite this high-profile support, the media has largely fixated on Harris calling Trump a fascist, downplaying the fact that Trump's own former officials—like retired generals John Kelly and Mark Milley—have said the same.

Joy Reid begins with a live report from Washington, where Harris will soon deliver what may be the most important speech of her career, billed as her closing argument in this pivotal election, delivered from a symbolic location--where former President Trump incited a mob to storm the Capitol.
