  9/11 - 25 Years Later: What We’ve Lost | The Joy Reid Show LIVE!

  Sep 11, 20262h 6m

  Tonight on The Joy Reid Show, it is the 25th anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks on New York City, the Pentagon, and Shankesville, Pennsylvania. A lot has changed in that time, and sadly much of it has been for the worse. The fomenting of rampant Islamophobia, endless wars in the Middle East, and endless surveillance on the American People, as well as the establishment of the Department of Homeland Security and of course ICE, which has been used to terrorize both undocumented migrants and US citizens. The state of the U.S. ain't great y'all! And the moldy orange that occupies the oval office sure ain't helping! But at least we can get through the day with the help of a thirst trap... Stay Tuned!
