Rep. Lieu: You really see how fearful Republicans are now of Jan. 6 committee

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut critiquing the alarming fact that not everyone agrees that the New Deal, the end of child labor, the ability of American workers to unionize, and expanded women's liberty and voting rights are good things. Next, Jan. 6 select committee Chairman Bennie Thompson confirmed that the committee has spoken with Donald Trump's former attorney general Bill Barr. Rep. Ted Lieu, who was a 2021 House impeachment manager, joins Joy to discuss. Then we analyze how over the weekend the British foreign secretary announced that Russia is plotting to overthrow the Ukrainian government with the goal of installing a puppet regime. We bring you an expert perspective on the Biden administration's response. Plus, in this edition of "The Absolute Worst," Joy laments how a fringe anti-vax subculture came to take over our country--with no sign of stopping anytime soon. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
