There are just 12 days left until the U.S. economy faces catastrophic failure if the debt ceiling is not raised. Mitch McConnell offered Democrats a deal to raise the debt ceiling on Wednesday--with a catch. Former U.S. Senator Al Franken joins Joy Reid and her panel to discuss. And on Thursday, the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection, and the role of the Trump White House in trying to overturn the presidential election, will face its first real test as four of Donald Trump's closest aides and associates face a subpoena deadline. Rep. Jamie Raskin joins Joy Reid with the latest developments from the Hill. Plus, a media expert unpacks a stunning new report from Reuters revealing that far-right "news" network OAN would not exist if AT&T executives had not seen an opportunity to create a new conservative TV network in 2013. Finally, in "The Absolute Worst," Joy critiques the governor and lieutenant governor of Idaho engaging in a game of GOP one-upmanship. All this and much more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
