Joy Reid devoted her final MSNBC show to offering her viewers guidance on resistance, or how to respond to Donald Trump’s moves to consolidate power in his second term.
Reid opened the show by posing a question at the top of the hour. “When you are in the midst of a crisis, and specifically a crisis of democracy, how do you resist? When fascism isn’t just coming, it’s already here.”
Earlier today, MSNBC announced that its was cancelling The ReidOut as part of a schedule overhaul, and that Reid would be departing the network.

Watch on Deadline“I am bereft that The ReidOut is ending,” Maddow said. “I sort of can’t get beyond that. But that is also part of what I have to say to the country about this moment, which is find people who you respect and trust and love and make common cause with them and help yourself by learning from them, and help them by standing uop for them.”
After news broke on Sunday that Reid’s show would be canceled, Trump went on a social media tirade, blasting Reid as a “mentally obnoxious racist.” That type of reaction from Trump, though, revealed how much Reid pushed his buttons, as well as others on the right.
The network has received pushback among a number of prominent progressives for her show’s cancellation.
Reid said in an emergency Win With Black Women call on Sunday that she has been through “every emotion, from anger, rage, disappointment, hurt, feeling guilt that I let my team lose their jobs. But in the end, where I really land, and where I have landed on today is just gratitude.” She said that “my show had value, and what I was doing had value.” She said that she was not sorry for presenting hard-hitting views on a range of issues, including talking about Donald Trump’s assault on the Constitution and “talking about Gaza and the fact that the American people have a right to object to little babies being bombed.”
“I am not sorry that I stood up for those things because those things are of God.”
Reid launched her 7 p.m. ET show in 2020, when it replaced Chris Matthews’ nightly program. The network is replacing the show with one hosted by Alicia Menendez, Symone Sanders Townsend and Michael Steele, who currently anchor the Saturday and Sunday show The Weekend. The network has emphasized that its schedule overhaul is a continuation of its progressive bent, particularly in primetime.
She closed out her show by thanking each member of her production staff individually, while vowing, “We are not going to stop.”
