Joy Reid slams the sycophancy of the Republican Party

Joy Reid leads this edition of The ReidOut with what many see as more proof of the idiocy and sycophancy of the Republican Party led by Kevin McCarthy, whose apparent plot to become House speaker comes with a new twist. Plus, despite Russian claims of a scaled back military offensive in Ukraine, we explore new indications today that Russia's goals are wider than previously indicated. Then, we analyze the fact that Marjorie Taylor Greene was forced to testify in Georgia state court on Friday in a legal challenge to her candidacy. The plaintiffs accuse her of violating the Constitution by inciting violence because of her incendiary comments rallying political terrorists to the Capitol on January 6th. Rep. Adam Schiff, member of the House select committee on the Jan. 6 attack, and the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, grants us his important perspective. Finally, 16 people were arrested earlier this month after forming a human chain, blocking West Virginia's Grant Town Power Plant, protesting the money that Sen. Joe Manchin has made off of the plant, while local West Virginians suffer the toxic consequences. Joy commemorates their action as we celebrate Earth Day. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
