England Takes Knee as U.S. Team Remains Standing at World Cup

 Breitbart

Still, others saw the act as just another example of empty virtue signaling:

"True to their word, the UK team took a knee ahead of its game against the U.S. Men’s National Team at the World Cup in Qatar. But many are commenting on the remarkable fact that the U.S. team remained standing.

"Last weekend, England signaled that its players intended to take a knee to protest Iran’s ongoing oppression on its LGBTQ community, its recent assault on women, not to mention the strict Islamic sharia law suppressing of its people.

"Some supporters of England’s act of taking a knee found the incident startling because taking a knee as protest was invented in the U.S., yet the U.S. team did not take a knee on Friday.

"Social media users were shocked over the U.S. team’s decision not to kneel along with their British opponents.". . .

Granted, England’s taking a knee is rather empty when compared to the actual members of Iran’s team, all of whom have risked serious punishment by their country’s leaders for refusing to sing the Iranian national anthem at the World Cup.

The Iranian players have risked jail, or even torture and execution by standing up against their own country’s civil rights abuses.

Compared to that, England’s taking a knee seems a little less noteworthy.

Kavanuagh Rape Accuser Confesses She Lied, Was Never Raped, Never Even Met The Man

The . . . show the Democrats staged at the confirmation hearings for Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee, Brett Kavanaugh, was a disgusting group denigration of the high office Democrats have been entrusted with.

The Beltway Report  "ICYMI| Because the mainstream media was not very interested in this story (for obvious reasons) it is likely that you did not see this when it broke.  For this reason we are posting it again."

. . ."South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham became enraged at the Democrats’ unwarranted attempt to smear Judge Kavanaugh and make a mockery, using unsubstantiated and vile claims, of what should’ve been an austere, probative, examination of the nominee’s qualifications.". . .

. . .I am writing to refer Ms. Judy Munro-Leighton for investigation of potential violations of 18 U.S.C. §§ 1001 (materially false statements) and 1505 (obstruction), for materially false statements she made to the Committee during the course of the Committee’s investigation.

"By itself Munro-Leighton’s admission that she lied about Judge Kavanaugh is despicable but, when taken in context of the way the Democrats orchestrated their resistance to Judge Kavanaugh throughout the entire confirmation process, should be disqualifying for high office.

"It has been admitted by at least one Democratic member of the Judiciary Committee that from the outset top Democratic senators had been coordinating with the protesters – many of them paid – to disrupt the hearings and to create a false sense of outrage, some in the most despicable manner imaginable.

"Then there was what now appears to be the wholly fabricated accusations of Christine Blasey-Ford that involved so many Deep State/Democrat operatives that a scorecard is required to identify all of them.

"There’s every reason to believe that radical leftist, Democrat Senator Kamala Harris had a hand in Munro-Leighton’s claims because she was the person who brought Munro-Leighton’s letter to the committee’s attention.". . .

The misery of Joy Reid and MSNBC

"I’m actually sorry for Reid. She lives in a wonderful place, the least racist place in the world (and I know, ‘cause I’ve traveled a lot) and all she sees is ugliness. I wonder whether she’ll ever realize the ugliness isn’t in America; it’s in her. If she does realize that, she can then make the choice to be happy." Andrea Widburg

Joy Reid's Take on Thanksgiving One of Her Most Ignorant Yet

Reid began by referencing how many people celebrate Thanksgiving, which she mentioned as "the day we gather with friends and family to enjoy turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes and pumpkin pie. We throw on the game, catch up on our lives and discuss or quite possibly argue about religion and politics." 

"For millions of Americans, it’s a day of cherished tradition. And as Americans, we certainly value those traditions," she also acknowledged, though it rang hollow with what she launched into next. 

"But it’s also important to unpack the myth of Thanksgiving. It is a holiday riddled with historical inaccuracies," she continued. "Built on this myth that the indigenous welcomed their colonizers with open arms and ears of corn. A simplistic fairytale interpretation of a 1621 encounter between indigenous tribes and English settlers that erases the genocide that followed. It’s the truth that Republicans want banned from our textbooks because here is the secret they want so desperately to keep."

 Tom Elliott  "And now please enjoy this this heart-warming Thanksgiving message from MSNBC"

hy on Earth does MSNBC’s Joy Reid still have a job? | Washington Examiner    

. . ."MSNBC’s failure to fire Reid reeks of hypocrisy. From Harvard’s rescinding conservative activist Kyle Kashuv’s acceptance over past inflammatory comments to outrage over outlandish comments Fox News’ Tucker Carlson made on shock-jock radio, the political Left has consistently activated for and defended a culture that "cancels" anyone who doesn't adhere to liberal orthodoxy. Thus, MSNBC’s refusal to abide by the same standard its left-wing allies and contributors have largely pushed is nothing short of unacceptable.". . .

 Joy Reid is the ‘grinch’ of Thanksgiving with her race-obsessed take  "MSNBC host Joy Reid (net worth: $4 million or so) graduated from Harvard University. Despite that pedigree, she learned neither facts nor gratitude. And so it is that, in honor of Thanksgiving, Joy Reid lashed out at America, accusing it of being a violent, irredeemably racist country. It’s time to bring a little reality to Reid’s foray into out-grinching the Grinch, not on Christmas, but at Thanksgiving.

Tucker pities Joy Reid's parents in stinging rebuke of the angry 'bigot' she became: 'This is what you get?' (bizpacreview.com)

“ 'What a bigot she is, and an unhappy person. My word,” the Fox News host said, in conclusion."

Reid is clearly a liar, and can’t be trusted. How are MSNBC viewers supposed to believe anything Reid says? Her bigoted past, and more importantly, her utter dishonesty, completely destroy any credibility the host had to act as a fair or trustworthy member of the media.
