Joy Reid: Some Republicans are using the threat of political violence to reach an extremist base - a podcast by Joy Reid, MSNBC

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with the extraordinary scene that played out on the House floor on Wednesday. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez addressed Paul Gosar's stupid, violent anime fantasy video depicting him killing Rep. Ocasio-Cortez and then turning a pair of knives on President Joe Biden. Rep. Nikema Williams joins Joy to discuss. Plus, Republicans apparently want you to believe the economy is not doing well. But in reality, unemployment is at its lowest point since before the pandemic began. Sen. Elizabeth Warren joins us with her expert analysis of the true state of affairs. Next, journalist and scholar Nikole Hannah-Jones explains the inspiration behind her new book, "The 1619 Project: A New Origin Story." Finally, Julius Jones will be executed on Thursday if Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt does not intervene. The Oklahoma parole board has said twice that Jones' sentence should be commuted. Journalist Mara Schiavocampo spoke to Jones and shares part of her exclusive interview with us. All this and much more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
