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.
