Summary

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with a debt ceiling deal being in place, and the apparent wrath of the far-right House Freedom Caucus in response. Joy observes, "If the Republican chaos caucus is this mad about the debt ceiling deal, you know President Biden got a good result." Our panel brings their analysis. Also in this episode, we examine new reporting on the alleged growing bad blood among Donald Tump's lawyers, including that one of them may have been misled about where Trump was hiding classified documents. Plus, presidential candidate Ron DeSantis has unveiled his apparent authoritarian manifesto, vowing to destroy "leftism" and "wokeism." Our guests show how his views are out of step with most of Ameica. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
