California Hits Back at the Great Texas Betrayal | The Joy Reid Show LIVE! Aug 22, 2025

1 hour 2 minutes

In this episode, Joy speaks with Nicole Collier, the Texas state representative who was locked in the chamber by Republicans for refusing to sign the "plantation permission slip" to be minded by state police to ensure that they would be in chambers to witness the crushing of Black and Latino voter power in Texas. We also talk Trump, autocracy and outrage with Pennsylvania State Rep. Malcolm Kenyatta, who also serves as DNC vice chair, about the many ugly policies Trump and Republicans putting place at the national and local level. And we're joined by Jennifer Welch, who went viral for telling white voters who "triple Trumped" to stay out of Mexican, Indian and other ethnic restaurants, and go to Cracker Barrel instead. We talk about the right's fake outrage about Cracker Barrell's new logo.
