Candidates and Catastrophes | The Joy Reid Show LIVE!

Tonight on The Joy Reid Show, we talk to a few of the Democratic candidates looking to put the breaks on the destruction taking place in our democracy. We also have a conversation about the effects that DOGE and broad anti-DEI policies have had on Black women in particular. Following that, we have an update on the Nolan Well's case and a sit down with friend of the show Rashad Robinson about his new book.
