We dare Mike Johnson to give that answer at a town hall in front of his constituents

All the folks who exited NBC today. Seen together, hoo boy. Message received.

Like she did for others, @joyannreid.bsky.social elevated me. She was the first cable host to have me on as a subject matter expert. She’d reach out personally when news broke that’s in my wheelhouse, always thinking of ways to include me. She helped me find my voice, my lane.
