Rep. Swalwell slams those pushing America "towards fascism"

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with the Republicans who apparently continue to pour gasoline on the flames that led to Jan. 6. Rep. Eric Swalwell of California, a Trump impeachment manager earlier this year, joins us to discuss the controversial statements of GOP Rep. Madison Cawthorn and other prominent conservatives. Plus, today marks the first day in 7,268 days that our country is no longer fighting a war in Afghanistan. In a defiant tone on Tuesday, President Biden said he refused to continue a war that was no longer in the service of the vital national interests of our country. Joy Reid and her panel critique critics of the president, who seem to want America to stay in "forever wars." And, much of New Orleans is without power because a major transmission tower crumbled during Hurricane Ida. White House Senior Adviser and Director of Public Engagement Cedric Richmond, who is also a former Louisiana congressman, speaks with us as the liaison between the White House and local officials there. Next, Rep. Val Demings of Florida, a Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate, speaks out against the violence erupting over mask mandates in her state and nationwide. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
