Eric Holder on battling GOP voter suppression laws and gerrymandering nationwide

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with news that last night Anthony Gonzalez -- the two-term Republican congressman from Ohio -- announced he is retiring in 2022, calling Donald Trump “a cancer for the country.” Joy and her panel discuss the future of the Republican Party, in anticipation of the right wing rally slated for Saturday in D.C. NBC News senior reporter Ben Collins says of the event, "The revolutionary fervor is higher than ever." Then, Dr. Kavita Patel explains the age range decision of the FDA on COVID-19 vaccine boosters, as many have been confused by the recent changes. Eric Holder also joins The ReidOut on battling the GOP voter suppression laws and gerrymandering being enacted nationwide. Plus, Texas high school principal James Whitfield joins the show, after being put on administrative leave after parents accused him of promoting critical race theory. (The school denies a connection.) Finally, in this edition of "The Absolute Worst," Joy critiques the Republicans apparently preaching the disturbing gospel of "The Great Replacement Theory." All this and much more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
