  • MAGA Fakes vs America | The Joy Reid Show Live
    Nov 25 2025
    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.

  • Dementia Don Threatens Dems | The Joy Reid Show LIVE!
    Nov 22 2025
    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.

  • MAGA Freakout Friday: The Epstein Haunting | Nov 14, 2025
    Nov 15 2025
    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.

  • Congress Is Back! And So Are The Epstein Files | Nov 12, 2025 Episode
    Nov 13 2025
    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.

  • Abby Phillip on Jesse Jackson, Black Power, and Wild Debate TV | The Joy Reid Show Bonus Episode
    Nov 12 2025
    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.
