Sen. Tina Smith on McConnell: Democrats have to stand up to him

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with America just 13 days away from defaulting on our nation's debt. Meanwhile, Republicans seem to have no regard for the fact that a failure to raise the debt limit could plunge the U.S. into a deep recession. Sen. Tina Smith joins The ReidOut to discuss. Plus, Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen spelled out her allegations about the dangerous effects of the social media giant she called "morally bankrupt" in congressional testimony on Tuesday. The former product manager told senators that Facebook prioritizes profit over public safety in steering users toward toxic content detrimental to the mental health of young users and undermining our democracy. Joy Reid and her panel discuss. Next, attorney Benjamin Crump, lawyer for the family of Henrietta Lacks, and her grandson Ron Lacks, discuss the lawsuit filed by her family over a pharmaceutical company's use of her cells. Finally, in "The Absolute Worst," Joy Reid critiques the members of the Republican party who have proliferated harassment and violence, some of whom are now apparently calling for decency. All this and much more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
