Trump’s allies in Congress apparently go to bat for the former president

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with the ongoing efforts by Donald Trump’s allies in Congress to apparently go to bat for the twice-impeached, twice-indicted former president. The recent appearance of Trump-appointed FBI Director Chris Wray before the Republican-controlled House Judiciary Commitee immediately went off the rails with an unhinged bombardment of all the old, right-wing conspiracy theories. Our experts bring their analysis. Also in this episode, we cover the aftermath now that Iowa Republicans have passed a draconian abortion ban that does not allow a clear-cut exemption for raped children. Plus, the U.S. military is the latest target of the right-wing culture wars, with Sen. Tuberville blocking military promotions. Meanwhile, a school district is banning the military memoir, "Jarhead." The author of this book, Anthony Swofford, joins Joy with his thoughts. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
