Dr. Bernice King to Republicans: Do not take excerpts from my father, Dr. Martin Luther King

Joy Reid leads The ReidOut with the most important and most debated political question of the moment: what is happening to the Republican party? She is joined by Texas St. Rep. James Talarico, who went on Fox News to call out the Big Lie. Rep. Talarico says of he and his Democratic colleagues fleeing Texas for DC to support voting rights: "All of this is because of one man's inability to accept factual reality, and because of one party's complicity with that big lie." Then, Dr. Bernice King, CEO of the Martin Luther King Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change and daughter of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., decries Republicans' use of her father's words to support their policies. She tells them, "Do not take excerpts from my father. Study him holistically... For people to misappropriate him this way is beyond insulting." Writer Michael Wolff also shares details of his account of the Trump administration's final days in his new book, "Landslide." Finally, Joy Reid outlines how a historic case tried before the Supreme Court that upheld Jim Crow, Plessy v. Ferguson, uses the same arguments as a recent Supreme Court ruling on voting rights. All this and more in this Wednesday edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
