The historic Senate confirmation of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson for the Supreme Court

Joy Reid leads this edition of The ReidOut with the historic Senate confirmation of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, a very important step towards her becoming Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, the first Black woman in history on the U.S. Supreme Court. Next, we turn to the West's continued efforts to further isolate Russia amid growing evidence of war crimes in Ukraine. The European Union has agreed to ban Russian coal, but is still divided on Russian oil and gas, which remains untouched. Joy and her panel discuss whether this needs to change--now. Plus, the American Library Association has said that book banning attempts have surged in 2021 to the highest level since they began tracking them 20 years ago. Rep. Jamie Raskin joins Joy on battling this disturbing development. Then, Joy breaks down how Texas Gov. Greg Abbott should be more focused on the severe droughts and other real threats to his state, rather than engaging in continual, destructive culture war grandstanding. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
