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.

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. We are also joined by Senator Andy Kim of New Jersey to discuss the ravages Trump's ending of SNAP benefits is doing to American families. Followed by representatives Ro Khanna, and Jonathan Jackson to discuss the racist gerrymandering of red states and the potential passing of Prop 50. Next, Representative Raja Krishnamoorthi of Illinois, followed by Jordan Wood of Maine both of whom are running in Democratic primaries for U.S. Senate join us talk about a wide range of issues including tax cuts vs healthcare, the Nazi-esque tattoo of another Maine primary candidate, the racist attacks against Rep Krishnamoorthi lobbed by people on the right, and what changes are needed in the way the Democratic Party operates. Finally, all of this culminates in a very cute and fuzzy (and much needed) moment of Joy! All of this tonight on The Joy Reid Show. SPONSORS: Tonight's sponsor is Defending Our Neighbors Fund.

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.
