The Joy Reid Show

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 i...

On tonight's episode of The Joy Reid Show, Kristi Noem has been demoted from head of the DHS to "Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas"... whatever that is.

All of this and more tonight on TJRS. GUEST SOCIALS: Elizabeth...

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? Is it because he's a puppet of Bibi "The Butcher" Netanyahu? Is it because the wealthy are salivating for yet another chance to steal a sovereign nation's oil? Is it ALL OF THE ABOVE? Watch to find out. GUE...

On tonight's episode of The Joy Reid Show, while the Pam Bondi DOJ goes after the Minnesota church protesters, LA Superintendents, and Senators who peacefully protest.

One of who currently "leads" our count...

On tonight's TJRS it is the eve of Donald Trump's State of The Union Address, but the state of the union as far as we are concerned? Is 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...
