Garland 'is not rising to meet the moment' legal expert says

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with the question, "How dumb can a nation get and still survive?," courtesy of Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson. Joy and her panel discuss the many puzzling actions and leadership decisions coming out of the modern GOP. Also, the select committee announced Friday that Donald Trump's former chief of staff Mark Meadows and former Department of Defense official Kash Patel are engaging with the Jan. 6 committee, while Steve Bannon has said he will defy the subpoena. Will Attorney General Merrick Garland and the Democrats enforce compliance? Plus, Professor Anita Hill joins The ReidOut to discuss her new book, “Believing: Our Thirty-Year Journey to End Gender Violence.” Then, NBC's Jacob Soboroff joins us after investigating the situation in Haiti. Finally, in "The Absolute Worst," Joy Reid critiques Vernon Jones, who is running for governor of Georgia and used to be a Democrat, only to announce joining the Republican party at the rally before the Capitol insurrection. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
