Summary

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with a State of the Union address for the books, when last night President Biden got Republicans to jump from their seats in support of Medicare and Social Security. Meanwhile, in the Republican response, Sarah Huckabee Sanders did her version of "American Carnage" tying the party right back to Donald Trump, while repeatedly using the word "freedom" to describe the party that is taking away women's rights and banning books. Then, freshman congresswoman Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas), member of the House Oversight Committee, joins Joy on former Twitter executives testifing before the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday. Finally, we react to President Biden's call for police reform, as twisted new details emerge about Tyre Nichols' death after a vicious beating by Memphis police. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
