If Joy Reid and her MSNBC cohorts are tragically miseducated, so are their viewers

Does MSNBC leadership take  note of Joy Reid's statements and her effect on the network's reputation? One might wonder if management fears what her megaphone and claims of racist persecution might have on angry MSNBC listeners. I would guess this is the comfort station for angry people, wouldn't you?

 ‘Pure race baiter’: Douglas Murray rips into Joy Reid over Trump comments

MSNBC host Joy Reid slammed over ‘race baiting’ black voters comments    

The unbridled racism of Joy Reid - Washington Examiner 

. . ."Reid has stopped criticizing people based on their actions, ideas, principles, and policies. Instead, she ignores facts and reality and jumps to attacking people based on their skin color. Consider there have been plenty of people who have emotionally cried during hearings and court testimonies — people of all races and genders. Yet, Reid felt comfortable demonizing white people because of their race in instances where race had nothing to do with anything. Her hateful rhetoric should be called out for the unbridled bigotry that it is. Furthermore, such things should not be tolerated in 2021, and Reid should be held accountable for her racism." . . .

Democrat J.B. Pritzker Gives Joy Reid a Reality Check About Trump's Deportation Plans – RedState   "After four years of chaos at the border leading to overwhelmed state and local resources, especially in cities like Chicago, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker went on MSNBC on Wednesday evening and said that he would do what he could to thwart Donald Trump's mass deportation plans. When you look past his surface-level defiance, though, there were some hard truths shared by Pritzker that left Joy Reid none too happy." . . .

. . ."Still, it's clear that Illinois will continue to operate as a sanctuary state regarding cooperation with the federal government. I've got a solution to that: Send more buses.

"Not every illegal immigrant will end up being deported even under Trump if for no other reason than logistics alone. In the meantime, states like Texas should continue to send Pritzker more "residents" for him to deal with. Make him collapse under the weight of his preferred policies. We'll see how protective he is when Chicago gets a few hundred thousand more illegal immigrants to pay for.

Bishop Strickland: Every bishop should state 'Francis no longer teaches the Catholic faith' - LifeSite

Bishop Joseph E Strickland; Lifesite News  

"Bishop Joseph Strickland strongly rebuked ‘silent’ US bishops in a powerful letter outside the USCCB meeting in Baltimore, warning them that God will punish those who do not speak out against ‘false messages constantly flowing from the Vatican’ under Pope Francis."

Editor’s note: The following is an open letter by Bishop Joseph Strickland addressed to the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) during their 2024 fall plenary assembly in Baltimore.

"You gather here today, present-day apostles, as the Church and, therefore, the world stand perched on the edge of a cliff. And yet you who are entrusted with the keeping of souls choose to speak not a word of the spiritual danger which abounds. Today we stand on the cusp of all that has been prophesied about the Church and the abominations which would come forth in these times, a time when all of hell attacks the Church of Jesus Christ, and a time when the fallen angels of hell no longer seek entry into her sacred halls but instead stand inside, peeking out of her windows and unlocking doors to welcome in more diabolical destruction." ... 

. . ."Do you not know that Our Lord will send forth His avenging angels to heap coals of fire upon the heads of those who were called to be His apostles and who have not guarded what He has given unto them?

"And yet almost all of you, my brothers, stood by silently watching as the Synod on Synodality took place, an abomination constructed not to guard the Deposit of Faith but to dismantle it, and yet few were the cries heard from you – men who should be willing to die for Christ and His Church.

"The Synod’s final document has been released, yet with the sleight of hand which is so characteristic of the Francis-controlled Vatican. By drawing attention to the issues which worried many, they have slipped in what was always their real goal without anyone even noticing. What they were after in the first place was the dismantling of Christ’s Church by replacing the structure of the Church as Our Lord instituted it with a diabolically-inspired new structure of “synodality” which in actuality is a new church that is in no way Catholic."

EXCLUSIVE: Bishop Strickland explains why he called out Pope Francis and other bishops

"In an exclusive interview with LifeSiteNews, Bishop Joseph Strickland explains why he has publicly called out Pope Francis for his denial of the Catholic faith and his fellow bishops for their silence on Francis’ dangerous errors.

"READ: Bishop Strickland: God will punish bishops for their silence while Pope Francis destroys the Church

John-Henry Westen: Bishop Strickland, it’s so good to talk to you immediately following what I think really will be a historic statement. Let me ask you first, what prompted you to make this statement and to make it now?

"Bishop Joseph Strickland: As I’ve said ever since last Tuesday, we have an opportunity, when the country has made a choice politically that at least opens the door for us to have the possibilities of moving our culture, our nation, the beloved people of God in this nation, closer to the Truth that is Jesus Christ. So I believe that’s a big part of what prompted me, at this moment, to be here.

"READ: Bishop Strickland: Trump’s election is an opportunity for Catholics to share the faith more boldly

"JHW: Well, very interesting. Now, one of the things with this statement that you just delivered is it can cost you. I mean, you’re making a statement that may very well have all sorts of ramifications for you. Were you not fearful of saying such a thing?

"BJS: Well, John-Henry, I think, as people of faith, we have nothing to fear, really, except to lose our inheritance to be children of God and eternal life. So, yeah, there are things in the world that we can lose, but Christ really clearly tells us we have to be willing to lose everything. And I don’t claim to be especially bold or brave, but it’s just very clear to me." . . .

Case in point:   Pope Francis’ new preacher promotes homosexual reading of Scripture and Christ 

. . ."Father Roberto Pasolini has been appointed as the official preacher to Pope Francis’ personal household. Pasolini has explicitly encouraged Catholics to imagine that various Biblical figures, including King David, took part in homosexual relationships. In the same speech, Pasolini referenced the practice of some to imagine that Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, had homosexual relationships with his disciples. Pasolini described this as “way of trying to project into Scripture our own questions, our own curiosity.”

"She ain’t going. Jill Biden’s husband authorized the FBI snooping through her underwear drawer."

 Althouse  "The Bidens are disgusting. Jill Biden isn’t someone Melania needs to meet."

Said a source, quoted in "Melania Trump declines to meet with Jill Biden at White House, citing Mar-a-Lago raid: source" (NY Post).

Meanwhile, "Melania’s husband, President-elect Donald Trump, will sit with President Biden in the Oval Office Wednesday for a traditional post-election meeting."

I imagine Melania can also remember watching Joe's face distorted with hatred as he spoke about Trump and we who support him. Never forget Biden's clenched teeth and narrowed eyelids outside dark, red Freedom Hall, the SOTU, and the Democrat Convention speech. If I cannot forget Biden's face then, how can Mr. Trump not as well? TD

Melania Trump Won't Be Meeting With Jill Biden   . . ."That raid on August 8, 2022 was a particularly memorable example of how the Biden-Harris Department of Justice was politicized and weaponized to go after Trump, their chief political enemy. It's thus particularly shameful that Harris had been hysterically warning that it was Trump who was going to weaponize government against his political opponents when they had already done so. 

Many concerning details came out of that case, and we later learned that deadly force had even been authorized. The case was ultimately dismissed by Judge Aileen Cannon in July. With Trump having been elected as president, Smith's other cases against the former and future president look to be coming to an end. 

Why Biden Told an Israeli Reporter to Smash Her Head Against a Camera

 Townhall

"Joe Biden met with Israeli President Isaac Herzog to discuss Middle East issues, the Gaza war especially, and he didn’t fall asleep, mention a dead head of state, or fall. It certainly was a better photo opportunity than the last where Biden looked as if he had fallen asleep (via CBS News):" . . . 

. . ."The outgoing president didn’t have a dementia or senior moment, but he did swipe at the press. Nearly 100 hostages remain in Hamas’ custody, and they’re not going to let them go. This issue has exposed the Biden administration’s naivete, as terrorists cannot be trusted. You also don’t need to know that Hamas keeping these prisoners allows them to stave off a total and devastating IDF offensive that will likely wipe the rest of the terror group off the map. Israel has repeatedly ignored Biden’s warnings to go into Rafah, finally seeing the president as a man who has no grasp on what he’s doing. When an Israeli reporter asked the president if he thought he could secure a hostage deal before he left office, Biden responded by telling the journalist to smash her face against the camera:. . .

. . ."Was it in jest? Who knows, but it’s obviously a source of frustration for Biden, who is ignored at home and abroad. He’s one of the weakest presidents we’ve had since Franklin Pierce. If Trump had said that, it would've been the electric chair."

That last bit might go viral with the press that never stops putting the right in the worst possible light. TD

As MSNBC's Ratings Swirl Down the Toilet, Megyn Kelly Makes Prediction About 'Racist' Joy Reid's Future

RedState  

"And the worst part of all is smug Joy Reid is incapable of seeing that she remains among the most racist of all Americans, an ironic sign that she continues to have a television show on which to preach her bitter racism daily. That's until whichever comes first: MSNBC completely swirls down the toilet, or as Megyn Kelly predicts, fires her a**." . . .

Poor MSNBC. 

While I'm not quite ready to write the far-left outlet's eulogy, it does appear that the network of insufferable hosts like Nicolle Wallace, Rachel Maddow, Stephanie Ruhle, and racist-extraordinaire Joy Reid is on life support in the aftermath of President-elect Donald Trump's election beatdown of Vice President Kamala Harris.

As my colleague Nick Arama reported earlier on Tuesday, the anti-Trump outlet has been hemorrhaging viewers since Election Day to the tune of a staggering 54 percent drop in primetime viewership. That is astounding, given -- I assume -- that a substantial percentage of MSNBC's regular viewers hate Trump just as much as the network's TDS-riddled hosts do.

---

So what might MSNBC do, with its rating now swirling down the toilet faster than at any time in its existence? It's hard to say, but podcaster Megyn Kelly had a lot to say about the aforementioned racist extraordinaire, Joy Reid.

During a segment on her SiriusXM podcast “The Megyn Kelly Show” on Monday, Kelly predicted that MSNBC will fire Reid after her latest diatribe against Trump, in which she irresponsibly claimed the president-elect plans to deport minorities who have legal status in the country.

Kelly said of "racist" Reid:

She wants a race riot. That’s really what you take away listening to Joy Reid. She actually does want some sort of rioting in the streets, some sort of race revolt.

I've watched more of Joy Reid's racist rants -- solely for the purpose of writing about them -- than any decent human being should be forced to watch, and I have to agree with Megyn. 

Reid would love nothing more than a race riot. The woman is obsessed with race, from "white supremacists" to "blackness" and everything in between. Oh, and also Donald Trump ("Hitler") and his supporters ("Nazis.")" . . .

We Have Another MSNBC Meltdown That Proves the Left Doesn't Get Why They Lost

"Is Philadelphia more racist now, too? Kamala underperformed by double-digits in the Democratic bastion."  Matt Vespa 

We Have Another MSNBC Meltdown That Proves the Left Doesn't Get Why They Lost   . . ."Eddie Glaude had a total meltdown on MSNBC. He couldn’t accept that the American people voted for someone who would end their economic suffering. There are many reasons why Kamala Harris wasn’t going to win, to say nothing that she couldn’t articulate a single policy issue. The merry-go-round of failed attacks was astounding during her 108-day stint as the 2024 Democratic nominee. And yet, Glaude still thinks it’s racism, despite Trump gaining among young voters, blacks, and especially Hispanics. In four years, Catholic voters became more racist, while white women under 30 saw an 11-point swing to Trump. Is Chicago now a bastion of Nazism, Mr. Glaude? No.

"Host Stephanie Ruhle tried to explain why Donald Trump won, which Glaude, a Princeton University professor, couldn’t believe because this is how liberals behave when they lose. Their entire ethos is all emotion-based, not fact-based. Glaude wants to believe in the identitarian nonsense that’s engulfed the Democratic Party and the belief that we’re a racist country." . . .

CNN’s Fareed Zakaria NUKES Dems in Blistering 7-Minute Commentary for ‘Lawfare’ Against Trump and ‘Deeply Illiberal’ Culture War Positions

 "In 2020, the percentage of Americans who wanted to decrease immigration was just 28%. By this year, it was 55%. When Kamala Harris went on The View and was asked how she would have differed from Biden, instead of basically saying nothing different, she should have said, I would have shut down the border early and hard."

  . . ."The GPS host told his audience that there was no singular reason why Vice President Kamala Harris and down-ballot Democrats performed so poorly.

He categorized the election results as a reaction from an electorate that had grown tired of Democratic policies and the party’s messaging. He said Democrats misread the room on everything from diversity to their handling of immigration to a sentiment Trump was being persecuted by politically motivated criminal trials and proceedings.

“At first glance, it would seem easy to explain last year’s election as part of a 2024 global wave against incumbents beset by post-Covid turmoil and inflation,” Zakaria said.

He added that in his estimation, a Harris loss could have been “preordained” but that it was not the case – citing economic factors unique to the US.

After noting Trump was essentially spent as a political force after the Jan. 6 Capitol riots, Zakaria walked his audience through polling that showed Trump continued to rise in polls while Democrats became overconfident.

“But they blew it,” he said. “The New York Times estimates that Harris will lose the national popular vote by about a point and a half, a first for Democrats since 2004.”

"Zakaria explained Democrats lost big last week for three key reasons:" . . .

Trump names former ICE director Homan ‘border czar’

 The Hill

 "Other actions Trump may take immediately would likely rely on executive authority. Trump has vowed to sign an executive order “on Day 1” to stop federal agencies from giving automatic U.S. citizenship to the children of immigrants in the country illegally. Such an effort to end birthright citizenship would face certain legal challenges." 

  "President-elect Trump announced Sunday that former Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) director Tom Homan would serve as “border czar” in his second administration, installing a key ally to enact a promised crackdown at the southern border.

"Trump made the announcement on Truth Social and said Homan’s responsibilities would include “the Southern Border, the Northern Border, all Maritime, and Aviation Security.”

"“I’ve known Tom for a long time, and there is nobody better at policing and controlling our Borders,” Trump posted. “Likewise, Tom Homan will be in charge of all Deportation of Illegal Aliens back to their Country of Origin. Congratulations to Tom. I have no doubt he will do a fantastic, and long awaited for, job.”

"Much of Trump’s Day 1 agenda is likely to be focused on cracking down on immigration, and in Homan, Trump has appointed a staunch ally who has shown a willingness to carry out his orders.

"Trump has for months pledged to launch the largest deportation operation in the nation’s history, an effort he has said will rely on cooperation with local police departments, even as he has provided few specifics about the cost or repercussions of removing millions of people from the country.

"Other actions Trump may take immediately would likely rely on executive authority. Trump has vowed to sign an executive order “on Day 1” to stop federal agencies from giving automatic U.S. citizenship to the children of immigrants in the country illegally. Such an effort to end birthright citizenship would face certain legal challenges." . . .

Fresh off of fine for wearing MAGA hat, NFL player does Trump dance after 49ers sack

 BPR

"NFL star Nick Bosa set off speculation and fan reactions with a celebratory move that seemed kind of familiar.

The San Francisco 49ers starting defensive end took a moment with teammates to celebrate a move during Sunday’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after Bosa sacked Baker Mayfield for a 10-yard loss in the fourth quarter.

"While there has not yet been any confirmation that Bosa did, in fact, do a quick “Trump Dance,” many fans watching were convinced the 49ers defensive star was again showing his support of President-elect Donald Trump with the move as seen in clips from the NFL and Fox Sports. 

"Bosa was fined $11,255 by the League after he crashed a live ESPN interview last month and drew attention to his Trump hat declaring “Make America Great Again.” That move was seen as a boss move by many supporters of the former president and Bosa’a celebratory dance on Sunday had many wondering if he was channeling Trump again." . . .

no matter your political views, you must admit that trump’s little dance is hilarious pic.twitter.com/3Cr2C95ZPL

Dennis Prager: Calling Trump ‘Hitler’ has done permanent damage to the moral realm

 BPR

Calling Trump “Hitler” and “Nazi” utterly trivializes Hitler and Nazism. Young people, the recipients of a largely worthless education in American schools — especially regarding history — know little, if anything, about Hitler and Nazism    

Envisioning Evil: "The Nazi Drawings" by Mauricio Lasansky

"It may be impossible to overstate the damage done to morality by the Democrats and other leftists calling Donald Trump a fascist and a Nazi and declaring him “Hitler.”

"Asked by Anderson Cooper on CNN if she believes Trump is a “fascist,” Kamala Harris said, “Yes, I do.”

"With regard to calling Trump “Hitler,” Newsweek’s fact-checker concluded: “Harris didn’t directly call Trump ‘Hitler.’ However, many will think she came very close to it: she confirmed that she believes Trump is a fascist, quoted (retired four-star General, and one of Donald Trump’s White House chiefs of staff, John] Kelly’s unfavorable comments (Kelly said Trump ‘wanted generals like Adolf Hitler had’) and suggested Trump would ‘invoke’ Hitler.”

"Harris’ running mate, Tim Walz, compared the Trump rally at Madison Square Garden to the 1939 Nazi rally at Madison Square Garden.

"Many Hitler historians have done similarly. In a 2017 essay in the Los Angeles Review of Books, Ron Rosenbaum, author of a New York Times bestselling biography of Adolf Hitler, “Explaining Hitler,” compared Trump to Hitler:

“ '(The views of) Trump and his minions … come out of a playbook written in German. … The playbook is ‘Mein Kampf.’

“ 'What I want to suggest is an actual comparison with Hitler that deserves thought. It’s what you might call the secret technique, a kind of rhetorical control that both Hitler and Trump used on their opponents, especially the media.

“ 'Alan Bullock (the first major Hitler biographer) … had initially argued (that) it was likely (Hitler) had believed in nothing and just used the Jew-hatred to advance his cause with the nitwit thug segment of the German people. Just as Trump appealed to his nitwit thug racist, anti-Semite followers. … This is the comparison I’d been seeking.”. . .

That Jewish groups have not vigorously protested labeling Trump “Hitler” and “Nazi” only shows how deep the left-wing influence has been on most American Jewish organizations, especially the Anti-Defamation League, the organization founded to protect American Jews and combat antisemitism.

How Celebrity Worship Left the Harris Campaign $20 Million in Debt After Raising $1 Billion

Legal Insurrection   

"The point is that it is possible that none of them actually supported her; they were hired to pretend they supported her."  Patricia McCarthy; American Thinker*

Donors to the Harris-Walz campaign must have been shocked to receive an email calling for new donations the day after they’d been crushed by President-elect Donald Trump. The email said that the “Harris Fight Fund” urgently needed funds to help Senate candidates in “races where ballots were still being counted.”

After amassing a war chest of more than $1 billion and outraising Trump by a margin of 3 to 1, the campaign was $20 million in debt." . . .

BREAKING: The vanquished Harris-Walz campaign has morphed into the “Harris Fight Fund” and has dispatched Tampon Tim Walz to send a begging email asking for more donations from their broken supporters. They raised a billion dollars but somehow ended up 20 million in debt— and these are the people Democrats want running the country?? Sounds like a money laundering scheme to me. Grifters gonna grift, I guess.

"It turned out that the need for cash had nothing to do with helping Senate candidates. It had everything to do with paying celebrities to endorse Harris and to perform at her rallies, particularly those who appeared in the final days of the campaign.

"For starters, you may recall Harris’s much-hyped “Unite for America” livestream event in September that was hosted by Oprah Winfrey. Fox News’ Jesse Watters reported on Friday night that Winfrey was paid $1 million dollars for her time. He added that if Oprah thought she was “saving democracy, she should have done it for free.”

"We have no way of knowing how much other celebrities were paid. However, it has been widely alleged that Lizzo was paid $2.3 million for reading a speech at an October rally in Detroit." . . .

*UPDATE: Did celebrities have to be paid to endorse Kamala?  . . ."How pathetic is their contempt for the American people who are not members of the wealthy elite, who feel so superior to the likes of regular folks?  They thought that self-aggrandizing narcissists like George Clooney, who kicked off the “we need a new nominee” move; DiCaprio; Lady Gaga; Springsteen; Willie Nelson; etc. would sway enough voters to beat Trump.  That is how colossally stupid both the entertainment industry performers and the Deep State operatives are.  That is how astronomically clueless the Democrat left is today.  It is why Trump won so resoundingly. 

"The left and their beloved celebrities will be forevermore a spectacular joke.  The left’s blind rage has left its members bitter and placing blame in all the wrong places."
