The Joy Reid Show
Tonight on The Joy Reid Show, the Muslims are coming! The Muslims are coming! Islamophobia is on the rise in the US, and it's coming from both the right and the left. If you aren't Muslim yourself, you may be tempted to say, "Eh, that doesn't affect me." But not so fast! Fascism is always looking for its next target. Whatever the regime can get away with doing to one group, it'll do to all of us eventually.

#HasanPiker #HasanAbi #WajahatAli
The Muslim left is becoming impossible to ignore — and Hasan Piker has plenty to say about it. Wajahat Ali sits down with Hasan Piker for a wide-ranging conversation about Muslim Americans, progressive politics, MAGA, the Democratic Party, Gaza, Israel, Islamophobia and the future of the American left. Piker has become one of the most prominent online voices on the American left, particularly among younger voters. His political commentary frequently challenges both Republicans and Democratic leaders, while his outspoken criticism of U.S. policy toward Israel and Gaza has made him a major target of controversy. So what happens when Muslim voters and progressive young Americans demand a bigger voice in American politics? Is the Democratic establishment prepared for that shift — or will it continue alienating the very voters it needs? Waj and Hasan dig into the political backlash, the rise of progressive populism, Islamophobia, Gaza, MAGA and what comes next for the Democratic Party.
