House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has taken back the gavel, but there are many who question how she will lead a Democratic caucus that includes a highly independent freshman class and a diversity of viewpoints, in addition to appealing to a voter base focused on impeaching Donald Trump--something Pelosi has spoken against. Joy and her panel discuss the high hopes and expectations many have for Pelosi's return as speaker. Plus: Freshman Rep. Rashida Tlaib has come under fire from mainly Republicans for calling Donald Trump an expletive. Is she the victim of a sexist double standard in politics? And: Joy Reid's expert guests discuss the possibility that American Paul Whelan, who has been arrested in Russia under espionage suspicions, might be used by Russia for a "prisoner swap" for a Russian foreign national being held here, such as Russian agent Maria Butina. Then: Democratic Governor Jay Inslee of Washington joins Joy on his bid for the Democratic presidential nomination, and why he believes his message will attract voters in a crowded field. All this and more in this Saturday edition of AM JOY on MSNBC.
