The Empire Strikes Back | The Joy Reid Show LIVE!
Tonight on The Joy Reid Show, there isn't much that the Democrats and Republicans have in common these days, except for one thing: their weird, slavish devotion to a genocidal foreign entity. This, as the two parties bases swing in a completely different direction. Ol' Chucky Schumer and the DNC should have their sights focused on taking down Far-Right autocracy. Instead his eye is laser focused... on progressive candidates and the DSA. And we wanna know why.
