Dr. Fauci on the Omicron variant putting the world on edge

Joy Reid leads this episode of The Reidout with the new Coronavirus variant--Omicron--that is putting the entire world on edge. Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and chief medical advisor to President Biden, joins Joy with his advice. Next, we turn to the Supreme Court, which on Wednesday will hear arguments about the Mississippi law that prohibits nearly all abortions after the 15th week of pregnancy. Rep. Barbara Lee, co-chair of the Congressional Pro-Choice Caucus, joins The ReidOut on concerns that the court could deliver a disingenuous decision that would gut the constitutional right to abortion. Finally, in this special edition of "The Absolute Worst," Joy is joined by Dean Obeidallah, who slams GOP Rep. Lauren Boebert for spewing anti-Muslim bigotry. All this and much more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
