The Joy Reid Show

Tonight on The Joy Reid Show, sometimes shows and movie are shockingly prescient.

On tonight's episode of The Joy Reid Show, Sleepy Don's White House Correspondence clown show is tomorrow. As such it's time to reflect on all of the things that are happening during his administration. You know, things like attacking civil rights orgs, and ousting the Navy Secretary to replace him with a witch believing, racist nut job. War profiteering and, of course, taking a nice nap in the middle of a press conference. Just normal US Presidential things.

When he isn't making unhinged threats to Iran via his "Temu Twitter," Trump can be found wandering aimlessly on the White House grounds carrying a print out of his "Arc Du Trump." Can someone check on grandpa please? Meanwhile the gubernatorial race in California gets a little chaotic, with countless democratic hopefuls vying for the nomination. We speak to one of them: representative Eric Swalwell of California's 14th district. You don't wanna miss it.

On tonight's episode of The Joy Reid Show, Big Brother is watching. While 50,000 U.S. troops are being deployed to Iran to fight a fake war on behalf of Bibi the Butcher, another war is raging here at home. That war? The war for your data. The AI "broligarchy" is creating a mass surveillance state that grows larger and more pervasive everyday. And no, that isn't conspiratorial thinking, but the very real reality of the unchecked power tech CEOs are amassing under our current regime.

Tonight on The Joy Reid Show, Bibi wants boots on the ground. American boots to be exact. And since the United States seems to have taken on the mantle of Israel's personal errand boy, things may just escalate to that point. In our second hour, though, we cover a rare bit of good news. A win for the First Amendment as AfroMan, of "But I Got High" fame, won the defamation case filed against him by some deputies who were none too happy with a little song he wrote involving lemon pound cake.

Trump and Bibi lie and innocent men, women, and children in Iran and Lebanon die.

Tonight on The Joy Reid Show, as more and more horrific footage rolls out of Trump and Netenyahu's war, as the death toll on both sides grows higher and higher, as more and more American's watch the rising costs at home, the question on everyone's lips is: WHO IS THIS FOR?! Not Americans, not Iranians, and certainly not a God we aren't too sure these grifters actually believe in. But do not fall into despair, as the midterm elections draw nearer, tonight we will be talking to some of the passionate congressional candidates who are vying to be the ones to end the madness and help redirect our country in the right direction.

On tonight's episode of The Joy Reid Show, the US is at war with Iran. Why? Good question. Could it be because the Pedo in Chief (allegedly) is looking for a distraction from the Epstein Files?

On tonight's episode of TJRS, for years the far-right has spouted conspiracy theories. From Q Anon to Pizzagate and so forth. Now in 2026 it seems that some of those conspiracies are true, though not in the ways the far-right predicted they'd be, and not by the perpetrators they'd claimed. And with the shocking and horrific revelations of mass pedophile rings run by the wealthiest men and women on the planet those same conspiracy theorists are oddly silent. What's up with that? And what are the ways in which the people in power are attempting to normalize the unconscionable? Well join us tonight as we walk through the madness that is our present reality in 2026 and try to make sense of it all right here, on The Joy Reid Show.

On tonight's episode of TJRS... WEPA! In our first segment we sit down with guests Toure, Chris Witherspoon & Luis Osorio Jimenez to discuss the historic cultural moment that was the Benito "Bad Bunny" Bowl. We also sit down with author Ari Berman to discuss the latest threats to our democracy, namely the Trump/Bannon threats to nationalize our nation's elections. What can we do to oppose that? Ari has a few ideas. Other topics of discussion include a sit down with former SWAT team leader and now private attorney Tony Box to discuss ICE's atrocious "policing" of our cities, and a chat with friend of the show, Clay Cane to discuss his book "Burning Down Master's House".

On tonight's episode of The Joy Reid Show, ICE is escalating the chaos in Minnesota, in a display that looks not dissimilar to the slave catchers of the Jim Crow South. Americans are anxiously waiting to see if Congress will renew the subsidies on The Affordable Care Act. And Trump encourages protesting Iranians to take back their country by force.... ironic.

On tonight's episode of The Joy Reid Show we focus in on the horrific murder of Minneapolis resident, 37-year-old Renee Good, by ICE agents this past Wednesday. We also take a look at the response by the Trump Regime and it's attempts to smear Good's character and exonerate her killer. We cover newly released footage of the murder and discuss where we are as a country that this, alongside the staggering 32 other killings by ICE so far, has been allowed to happen, and what it means going forward.

On tonight's episode of The Joy Reid Show, we are ringing in the new year right! Zohran Mamdani has officially been sworn in as mayor of NYC and we sit down with our guests Wajahat Ali and Tamika Mallory to discuss this historic event. After that we return the alleged daycare center scams being run in Minnesota. There is a lot of false reporting being done to paint the state's Somali-American community as all being scammers, but Joy cuts through the not so concealed racism to get to the truth. In the second hour we are joined by friend of the show Rick Wilson to discuss not only what's going on in Minnesota, but the public emergence of Jack Smith, as well as 47's destruction of both the Kennedy Center and the east wing of the White House. And finally we end the show on a surprise Moment of Joy.

On tonight's episode of the Joy Reid Show, it has been a very busy week in Trump's America. The Kash Patell FBI's bumbling incompetence is on full display. They've allegedly found the shooter responsible for the horrific attack on Brown's campus... six days later. But this has raised even more questions than it answers. Weirdo Erika Kirk decided to take a jab at Joy this week, and threatened her with a hug and a touch on the head. Gross. And Donald Trump is giving himself a couple of gifts for Christmas, such as an attempt at renaming the Kennedy Center to the Trump Center and gutting Obamacare as has been his dream. In return he is gifting America: bread and circuses. The Hunger Games is officially real, folks, but will it be enough to distract the MAGA base? You know what Americans aren't going to get this holiday season though (in addition to affordable living costs, fair wages, and healthcare)? The Epstein Files! We sit down with Jeffrey Epstein survivor and advocate for women’s healing, awareness, & empowerment, Marina Lacerda and get her reaction to the disappointing news that the regime is defying the law and not releasing the full Epstein files. We ask her how she and the other survivors of Epstein's horrific crimes want justice to be done. After that, we sit down with Lev Parnas, to talk about the tell-all Vanity Fair interview with Susie Wiles, as well as to ask him why he thinks Trump and his cronies are so determined to keep the Epstein Files under wraps. And that isn't all! Representative Ayanna Pressley and comedienne Luenell join the show to discuss the news of the night. And Luenell even gives us a little insight on how to deal with toxic family relationships this holiday season. Lastly, our Moment of Joy is another hilarious and festive Tiktok from the self-proclaimed Heifer-ologist, Mrs. Mattie J. All of this tonight on TJRS.

On tonight's episode of the Joy Reid Show, we unpack the wild, blunt interview White House chief of staff Susie Wiles gave Vanity Fair and the hapless mess that is the FBI under Podcast Kash Patel, even as the Brown University mass shooter remains at large. We also break down Trump's clear envy of the beloved late actor Rob Reiner, and the growing MAGA rift after he attacked him in death.

On tonight's episode of The Joy Reid Show, Jasmine Crockett is running for the U.S. Senate seat in Texas, and Donald Trump is losing his mind. We sit down tonight to talk with Representative Crockett about the attacks on her character, her goals for if she is elected, and why a Democrat winning the Texas seat is actually not as far fetched as people think. We also discuss the Paramount/Skydance take over of CBS and how an anchor on the network seems to have benefited from calling a black journalist a terrorist. Furthermore, we consider what is at stake if Paramount then takes over CNN. Speaking of allegedly unwinnable races, Charles Booker comes on with us tonight to talk bout his bid for Glitchy Mitchy's seat in Kentucky. Lastly, our moment of joy brings us a little holiday cheer from a person we dearly miss. All this and more, tonight on TJRS.

Tonight on TJRS: Trump tries to pardon some turkeys. The key word there being "tries" as it seems old Dementia Don was having a hard time staying on topic (though really, what else is new). Do you know what Donald Trump has successfully pardoned, though? Criminals! Specifically more than 1600 January 6ers, and more than 60 crooks and scammers, several of whom seem to be connected financially or politically to ... Donald Trump. Meanwhile there's trouble in MAGA land. It seems Candace Owens and Alex Jones are none too happy with their orange cult leader. The reasons why? Charlie Kirk and Marjorie "Bad Built" Taylor Greene... Next, we take an extensive deep dive into Peter Theil, co-founder of Paypal and Palentir, and the man behind the curtains of much of the MAGA madness we are seeing today; not to mention the puppet-master who built JD Vance. Independent documentary producer, Philip Damico, who runs the YouTube channel,  @Volksgeist  joins us in that conversation. Then in hour two, we talk about Trumps latest bout of insulting and degrading female journalists. We cover the life of the recently passed Mother Viola Fletcher with Damario Solomon-Simmons, attorney for the Tulsa three. LaTosha Brown, co-founder of Black Voters Matter, jumps on to talk to us about her "We Ain't Buying It" campaign. And we share our Moment of Joy: a clip of Joy's recent appearance on the I’ve Had It podcast with Jennifer Welch and Pumps. --- Justice for Greenwood Justiceforgreenwood.org Joy's appearance on I've Had It: Bubba BJ-gate https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TScEqjCIkRI LaTosha Browns op-ed: "We're not buying what these retailers are selling https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/voices/2025/11/26/black-friday-cyber-monday-boycott-economic-blackout/87445997007/ WATCH: The Antichrist is Here -- The Story of Peter Thiel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAeTKyY3LB4 The We Ain't Buyin It campaign https://weaintbuyingit.com/ ---- ABOUT JOY REID: Joy-Ann Lomena Reid (AKA Joy Reid) is a best-selling American author, political journalist and TV host.

On tonight's episode of TJRS, in a welcome bit of good news, a federal judge has thrown out the criminal cases against former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James. Meanwhile, Marco Rubio says the quiet part out loud, seeming to admit that the Trump "peace deal" for Ukraine was written by Putin himself. MTG continues to try and sell us her rebrand but, before you allow yourself to believe she's had some kind of come to Jesus, there's very compelling evidence that all of this is just one big money making grift. Christina Greer, Associate Professor of Political Science at Fordham University, Lincoln Center (Manhattan) campus, and co-host of the FAQ NYC politics podcast and Rick Wilson, political and media strategist and co-founder of  @lincoln-project-djsbsw  join us to discuss. Next on the show, what's going on with the US's growing military interest in Nigeria and Venezuela? Is it oil? More oil? Or, and stick with us here, OIL? Kica Matos, president of the National Immigration Law Center, who recently wrote "The Danger of Trump War Threats" in Time magazine joins the conversation. In hour two we discuss the recent Twitter update that has exposed yet another ongoing grift. Many supposed pro-Maga accounts are being run by individuals in developing countries looking to stoke American culture war nonsense in order to make a quick buck. Meanwhile on the homefront, Bishop William Barber and Repairers of the Breech are in North Carolina doing on the ground activism trying to fight for democracy and against fascism. Rev. Mark Thompson, host of Make it Plain, joins us to discuss. State Rep. Aftyn Behn, who is running for Tennessee's 7th congressional district, is also on tonight to discuss her electoral bid. Lastly our Moment of Joy goes out to the President of South Africa who closed out the recent G20 summit in the funnest way possible! TJRS would also like to share our condolences on the recent passing of Mother Viola Fletcher, one of the last living survivors of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre. May she rest in peace.

On tonight’s episode of TJRS, Donald Trump calls for the deaths of 6 military veteran members of the House and Senate. Their crime? The “Seditious” act… of making a PSA reminding fellow military troops that they need not obey unlawful orders; just like the Uniform Code of Military Justice states. We also discuss Mayor Elect Zohran Mamdani’s visit to the White House and his masterful handling of 47 who in a shocking turn of events seems to be all gung ho for the man he called a “Communist threat” for months. Dr.John Gartner, psychologist, psychotherapist, author and activist who has been warning for years about Trump’s cognitive state and dangerous personality disorder, and journalist, Trump biographer and professor David Cay Johnston join us to discuss. Next, Randi Weingarten, president of the AFT, along with Rick Lucas, Ohio Nurses Association President & Executive Director join us to discuss the dismantling of the Department of Education as well as the federal deprofessionalization of Nurses. In hour two we bring on Lev Parnas to discuss Trump’s so-called peace deal for Ukraine, and the connection to the Epstein files and Russian kompramat. Then, we discuss ICE’s ongoing terrorization of brown people, as well as the arrest of one ICE officer for soliciting sex from a minor. Kimberlé Crenshaw, pioneering legal scholar who helped create Critical Race Theory, and executive director of the African American Policy Forum, joins us for this conversation. Following that, Devan and Karess of the People’s Sick Day and Mass Blackout Movement come on to discuss their upcoming events from November 25th to December 2nd. And last but not least, our moment of joy goes to @nola_jettie_nu of Instagram and TikTok, whose son, Resse, had some choice words for a lady who dared to disparage his mama’s edges.

On tonight’s episode of The Joy Reid Show, we are joined by Representative Adelita Grijalva to discuss the vote to release the Epstein Files, which passed the House, Senate and was signed by Donald Trump today, and right wing Georgia congresswoman Margorie Taylor Green’s seeming come to Jesus rebrand. To aid in this discussion we are joined by the fabulous Jennifer Welch, co-host of  @ivehaditpodcast . In the second hour of the show we are joined by Texas State Representative Jolanda Jones to talk about the federal court issuing a preliminary injunction yesterday blocking the 2025 Texas redistricted maps from going into effect. Afterwards former Metro PD officer and January 6 hero Michael Fanone of the  @TheMichaelFanoneShow  to discuss tomorrow’s “Remove the Regime” rally. Then we bring on former ABC reporter turned fellow independent journalist  @TerryMoranJournalist to discuss the disgusting and often bullying way Trump talks to the journalists who are sent to ask him questions, particularly the overtly misogynistic and degrading way he speaks to women.

On this episode, we celebrate the victory by Calvin Duncan, who appeared on the show last week to announce his run for Orleans County clerk of the court, following a long incarceration for a crime he did not commit. Next, Joy spoke with Eric Swalwell about the ongoing Epstein files catastrophe Donald Trump and his regime have created for themselves. We also spoke with Nadine Smith who laid our her vision as the new head of Color of Change (http://colorofchange.org/).

On Friday's TJRS, Joy breaks down House Republicans' Epstein email dump, which happens to contain a lot of incriminating details that point to Epstein seeking to leverage his past relationship with Trump to boost his influence with world leaders. And she breaks down the strange timeline coincidences -- from Helsinki to a strange letter Epstein sent to himself and Michael Wolffe months before he died. We also talk about an important race in Mississippi on Saturday where a man who spent his 20s, 30s and much of his 40s in Louisianas notorious Angola prison for a crime he didn't commit, only to get himself freed with the help of the  ⁨@innocenceprojectNY⁩ . He has written a great book about his ordeal and is now running for Clerk of the Court in Mississippi to right the wrongs done to people like him. And Joy hung out on the show with her favorite morning show host,  ⁨@thestephaniemillershow6996⁩  host Stephanie Miller. And we introduced our audience to a great new movie, Sarah's Oil, based on an incredible true story, and the star of the film, 12-year-old actress Naya Desir-Johnson, who was our "moment of joy."You can support Calvin Duncan's campaign at https://calvinforclerk.com/Learn more about Sarah's Oil and rewatch the trailer at https://www.sarahsoilfilminspires.com/And keep up with The Stephanie Miller show at https://www.stephaniemiller.com/And check out Stephanie's and Calvin's books at shop.joyreid.comPlease support our sponsor:The government is pouring billions of taxpayer dollars into enforcement while slashing funding for legal aid.

On this episode of The Joy Reid Show, Congress returns! And some Democrats get straight to business. We highlight two members who succinctly broke down the Republican menace: congressmen Jim McGovern of Massachusetts and The Big Neguse, Joe Neguse of Colorado. We discuss the Republican Party and their president's withholding of SNAP benefits for 42 million Americans to hold hungry people hostage to make healthcare costs skyrocket. And we talk about the resistance, and how it's building. We also talk Epstein Files, which saw two big releases on Wednesday, including damning emails that show that Trump knew exactly what the notorious pedophile was up to. Our guests: Latosha Brown of Black Voters Matter Fund, Lev Parnas, who brought the real tea on Trump's fear of Epstein and the gangster oligarchy he's building, and Ezra Levin of Indivisible.

In this profound and revealing special episode, Joy Reid sits down with CNN anchor Abby Phillip to discuss her new book, "A Dream Deferred: Jesse Jackson and the Fight for Black Political Power." They dive deep into the untold story of Reverend Jackson's groundbreaking 1984 and 1988 presidential campaigns, exploring how his unapologetically progressive platform—championing Palestinian statehood, reparations, and economic justice—radically reshaped the Democratic Party. Phillip reveals how Jackson's strategic genius, from leveraging black voter blocs to changing delegate rules, directly made Barack Obama's presidency possible a generation later. The conversation also tackles Jackson's complex relationship with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., the media, and his role as a coalition builder. And the two discuss Abby's CNN show and the sometimes wild, sometimes performative, and always provocative conversations she oversees as the host and moderator. This is an essential history lesson on the man who taught Democrats how to fight and the enduring fight for Black political power.

On this episode of the Joy Reid Show, we break down the Democrats' shutdown failure under the "leadership" of Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, in which they caved without getting Obamacare subsidies extended.

Our guests are Maurice Mitchell of the Working Families Party, and Trump expert, journalist and author David Cay Johnston. In hour two, we uncover the shocking truth of what the Biden administration knew about the truth of Israel's genocide in Gaza and when they knew it, with Huffpo reporter Akbar Shahid Ahmed, and we close out with some rare good news from the right wing Supreme Court, with National Press Secretary for the Human Rights Campaign Brandon Wolf.

On this episode, we deconstruct Democrats' huge 2025 Election Day, in which they swept races from Mississippi to Ohio to Virginia, New Jersey to Detroit, Michigan and Zohran Mamdani's landmark win in New York City. And we dive into the indefensible lack of Muslim representation on mainstream news networks on the night American Muslims made history in multiple states. But we begin by talking Trump's epic corruption with Judd Legum of popular.info. Our own TJRS producer, Nida Khan tells her personal story, which made Mamdani's victory so poignant to her. In hour two, international journalist Rula Jebreal and civil rights leader Maya Wiley break down the history that Mamdani made, and the lessons the media and Democrats can learn from it.

What's the scariest issue facing America today? Is it ICE terrorizing neighborhoods and tackling brown children and their fathers on the way to school? Is it our senile wannabe fuhrer wandering lost in front of Japanese dignitaries? The cutting of SNAP benefits amidst the still ongoing government shutdown, leaving thousands of Americans starving and without pay? Is it Project 2025 and all the ways it plans to turn the United States into another Russia? NOPE! It's the brown, Muslim immigrant who wants to be Mayor of NYC! Zohran Mamdani continues to be the Democratic Socialist boogie man haunting Republicans AND the Democrats. Tonight on TJRS we are joined by our friend in triggering the right: Wajahat Ali as well as Rep Andre Carson to discuss the not so subtle Islamaphobia and racism that underpins much of the hand-wringing about a potential Mamdani Mayoral term.

On tonight's Monday episode of TJRS, we open on the latest person on Trump's indictment "hit list", Jack Smith. We then sit down and talk with Congresswoman LaMonica McIver about her pending DOJ case and malicious prosecution. As well as her fight to take care of her constituents in the midst of the administration's systematic destruction of social safety nets like health care and SNAP. But, hey! At least billionaire Timothy Mellon can donate $130 million to our troops to head of any type of military coup. We move on then to discuss Joy's proposal that Donald J Trump is not such a wholly different creature than his Republican predecessor George "Dubya" Bush. We go over Bush's many crimes, some of which you may have forgotten, and in doing so look at the many ways in which the right's playbook never really changes. It only escalates. Speaking of the playbook, it's being made increasingly clear that the orange oligarch has every intention of violating the constitution and snatching himself a third term. Meanwhile his handlers attempt to sell this flagrant demolition of our democracy with religion. Specifically the Anti-Christ... hm. And finally for tonight's moment of Joy, early voting has begun in NYC and we hear a rousing speech from the hopeful future Mayor, Zohran Mamdani. --- Shoutout to our sponsors starting with The Tamsen Show, which you can listen to new episodes of every Wednesday, wherever you get your podcasts.

In this in-depth "Basement Series" interview, Joy Reid sits down with former Congresswoman Cori Bush for a powerful and personal conversation about her time in "The Squad," the monumental forces that worked to oust her, and why she's running to reclaim her seat. Cori opens up about the $15 million Apac-backed campaign that defeated her, revealing the direct threats she received for advocating a Gaza ceasefire and the pressure from within her own party to stay silent. She details her complicated relationship with Wesley Bell, who assured her he wouldn't run against her before a pro-Israel-backed primary challenge. Bush also addresses the DOJ investigation into her husband and security services, her activism rooted in the Ferguson uprising, and the urgent need for a Democratic Party that fights unapologetically for the poor and marginalized. This is a raw look at the realities of power, money, and resistance in modern American politics.

Joyce Beatty, Democratic Strategist and Protect Our Care’s President Brad Woodhouse, and three directly impacted federal workers and union representatives Brent Barron, who reps workers at the Department of Labor, LeShanda Palmer, who reps workers at the TSA, and Everett Kelley, the national president of the American Federation of Government Employees, which is the largest union representing federal and D.C. government employees.

Vance on her MSNBC show AM Joy, and additional clips from his TED Talk the following year, that reveal how much his views have shifted.
