The ReidOut

MSNBC’s Joy Reid and her Wednesday guest, National President of the American Federation of Government Employees Everett Kelley, think you are stupid. On The ReidOut, the duo reacted to President Donald Trump ordering the end of DEI offices across the federal government by claiming such moves represent an attack on “disabled veterans.”

Appearing as a guest on Thursday's The ReidOut, MSNBC contributor Matthew Dowd compared poor Americans who voted for Donald Trump to poor whites who defended wealthy slave owners during the Civil War.

After President-elect Donald Trump leaned on dissident Republican U.S House members and strong-armed the reelection of Speaker Mike Johnson, congressional Democrats -- and Republicans -- marveled at Trump’s power and influence. When the U.S. Supreme Court unanimously ruled that Colorado could not prevent Trump from appearing on that state’s primary, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), a member of the…

MSNBC weekend host and legal contributor Katie Phang joined colleague Joy Reid on Friday’s installment of The ReidOut to declare that "the arc of justice has been crushed" now that Donald Trump will not be getting the hefty sentence on January 10 that progressives like them were hoping for in the New York hush money case.

New York Times columnist Charles Blow joined MSNBC’s Joy Reid on Thursday’s installment of The ReidOut to react to the reaction to the New Orleans New Year’s truck attack by an ISIS supporter that killed 14 people where he claimed that the big problem is that the attack was “one crime committed by one name that sounds exotic,” and that allows people to ignore the “really big…

MSNBC’s Joy Reid perhaps may never come to terms with President-elect Trump’s November victory. Tuesday night’s episode of The ReidOut included the host hilariously downplaying Trump’s entire campaign while ridiculing the various CEOs and Republican politicians who had voiced their support for Trump.

Democrats are slowly, but surely, building a permission structure for progressive activists to kill those they determine are bad. From the rise of antisemitism to, now, the murder of an insurance CEO, few Democrats seem capable of condemning violence without adding a “but.” To their credit, Gov. Josh Shapiro and Sen. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania have condemned both without buts.…

As President-elect Donald Trump celebrated being named Time magazine’s person of the year for 2024, MSNBC’s Joy Reid tried to throw cold water on the occasion by pointing out that not everyone who has won the award historically has done so because they made the world a better place. The ReidOut host claimed “we all know” which side Trump is on, and it is the one with “Adolf…

After the alleged murderer of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was caught on Tuesday, MSNBC’s Joy Reid was extra Joy Reid-y on The ReidOut. She gleefully noted that people on the internet are not angry at the murder, and when she welcomed progressive author and radio host Thom Hartmann, wondered how such reactions could be made in the same country that just elected Donald Trump.…

One can never expect MSNBC's Joy Reid to be the level-headed voice of reason, but even by her standards, her Wednesday edition of The ReidOut was off the charts crazy. According to Reid, Tennessee’s law, currently being challenged at the Supreme Court, that forbids so-called “gender-affirming care” for minors is part of a Nazi-like tradition of targeting transgender people.

The cast of Friday’s installment of MSNBC’s The ReidOut had a rather odd explanation for how the Republican Party has managed to win over working-class voters: racism towards former President Barack Obama. All host Joy Reid and author Christina Greer had to do was ignore that Donald Trump did better with all demographics and won in states that Obama also won.
