In this edition of The ReidOut, Joy Reid covers the mass firings of federal employees—potentially hundreds of thousands—ordered by Donald Trump and Elon Musk. Plus, we discuss what many consider to be America’s shame on the world stage as J.D. Vance and Pete Hegseth fumbled through the Munich Security Conference. But first, Trump’s take on law and order, as we seemingly now live in a country where the rule of law apparently comes second to what Trump wants. Top officials in Trump’s Justice Department—who also happen to be his former criminal lawyers—have pressured prosecutors to drop corruption charges against New York Mayor Eric Adams, citing interference with the administration’s immigration priorities. Listen now to this episode of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
