Today, we launch the new ReidOut Blog, a digital companion to Joy Reid’s nightly show on MSNBC, @TheReidOut. I’m Ja’han, your conductor. I lead the blog for Joy and team!

Here’s what we’re about.

There is a battle underway for control of the world's most powerful communication technologies. Beware.

[Ja'han Jones @_Jahan]

Hillary Clinton and Nancy Pelosi's talk at Columbia this week was full of insight. This warning, on social media manipulation, is FACTS:

"The capacity for extortion and blackmail based on your data -- including data that is not even 100% true -- becomes a HUGE problem..."

[Ja'han Jones @_Jahan]

More from Clinton on social media manipulation and disinformation. Here she discusses Douglass Mackey, the Trump-lover convicted for a 2016 voter suppression scheme meant to trick Clinton supporters to cast their votes in ways that wouldn't be counted.

.@_jahan: Trump's attorney isn’t the first person to launder Black criticism of the criminal justice system in service of a right-wing white dude. But, as president, Trump aligned himself with that very same system. So, it's a tough sell. -@thereidout Blog https://t.co/gdaZfyKHUV

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, a Rhode Island Democrat, just gave a perfect summary of what Republicans hope to achieve with their misuse of the term “woke.”

.@_jahan: Conservative bans on books and abortions pose a unique threat to Black women’s sense of self. Alice Walker’s work is like a road map to help them find it.

No wonder Republicans are desperate to keep her out of classrooms. (via The ReidOut Blog) https://t.co/DWJlWhuqKU

.@_jahan: To be unapologetic is to remain stoic in the face of judgment. But to me, Ta-Nehisi Coates isn't stoic. He’s righteously confrontational. And that's why he and his work have been targeted by conservatives. (via The ReidOut Blog) https://t.co/h6fBoXDsYK

@sandylocks @thereidout @MSNBC Much love, respect, and appreciation to you, Teacher! 🙏🏾 I value your work, and efforts to hide it only make me more confident in its longevity. Onward and upward we go!

[Kimberlé Crenshaw @sandylocks]

From @_Jahan at @thereidout blog: Republicans want to censor Kimberlé Crenshaw. Here's why. https://t.co/a4rW8UcIDc via @msnbc

[AYMAN @AymanMSNBC]

The GOP keeps making ugly statements trying to demonize China as a boogeyman, at a dangerous time when anti-Asian hatred and conspiracies are at the fore. @_Jahan

.@_jahan: It seems we’ve officially reached the point where “I’m with stupid” has become a campaign slogan. (via The ReidOut Blog) https://t.co/NveTdwu6dw

[Ja'han Jones @_Jahan]

Interesting.

A timeline showing how long it took before AG Merrick Garland named a special counsel to investigate Trump. 🤔 @TheReidOut

#ReidOutBlog: Approval of abortion drugs in the mail is a lifeline for patients

@_Jahan on how the Justice Department’s authorization of the U.S. Postal Service to legally ship and deliver mifepristone and misoprostol is good news for abortion seekers. https://t.co/OcFMGE9d82

[MS NOW @MSNOWNews]

.@_jahan: For a party that claims discussions about racism are anti-American, Republicans love to engage in them when they seem useful to their cause. (via The ReidOut Blog) https://t.co/FRXVY79x2X
