Summary

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with Attorney General Merrick Garland facing the righteous indignation of Ted Cruz and other Republicans on Wednesday amid new reporting about tension between the FBI and the Justice Department over the Mar-a-Lago raid. Rep. Eric Swalwell joins us to discuss. Also in this episode, CPAC is back! Once the home of mainstream conservatives like Ronald Reagan, it is now considered by many to be nothing more than a clown show. Joy's guest says it does in fact reflect the current state of the Republican Party. Plus, from performative to alarming, Republicans in Ron DeSantis's Florida are cracking down on LGBTQ people, and moving to "cancel" the Democratic Party. We have more. Finally, Chicago Mayoral candidate Brandon Johnson (D) joins us on Lori Lightfoot and much more. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
