Joy Reid is not the problem! I stopped watching @MSNBC because Joe Scarborough & Mika Brzezinski went to Mar-a-Lago to kiss the felon’s ring.

Joy Reid is a star because she talks about the issues, issues that makes certain of people very uncomfortable. They think they've won woth her cancellation. I think this will make her more valuable to the country she undoubtedly loves very much.

Jim Acosta GONE Chuck Todd GONE Joy Reid GONE Next?

For the record Joy Reid was the only MSNBC host to invite me on her show. She is a brilliant and engaging host and a weak network just got weaker. Never forget NBC gave you Trump.

I don’t care if folks disagreed with Joy Reid over this point or that one or whatever. What matters is she brought a strong, thoughtful perspective to most issues, she was great at cutting through Trump’s crap, and she provided a platform for a lot of Black voices on her show.

Firing Joy Reid is nasty as hell and it is 100000% because 1. she is a progressive Black woman unafraid to criticize wrongdoing and 2. wasnt a complete ghoul on Gaza

Can't say I'm surprised that Joy Reid was canceled but Morning Joe and Katy Tur weren't because MSNBC was complicit in the sanewashing as they let people like Peter Navarro and Stephen Miller have free airtime.

Joy Reid being cancelled while lesser quality shows like Jen Psaki and the "Morning Joe" twits get to stay shows how out of touch MSNBC continues to be.

Katy Tur—the female Chuck Todd—still has a show and Joy Reid does not. That, my friends, is white supremacy in a nutshell.

Literally the one thing MSNBC should not do right now is fire Joy Reid. And yet.

Joy Reid fired at MSNBC is a huge loss in what's left of our dying press. We went to a crawfish boil at Melissa Harris-Perry's house years ago, and got to meet Joy, TourĂŠ, so many irreplaceable voices. To see the network become unwatchable when we need it the most is a travesty.

2/19: MSNBC celebrates its NAACP Image Award and Joy Reid’s book Medgar & Myrlie. 2/22: Trump calls MSNBC a “threat to democracy” after NBCUniversal’s lawsuit settlement. 2/23: Joy Reid ( @joyannreid.bsky.social ) canceled. When Trump sent the heat, @MSNBC.com bent the knee—AGAIN!

This Black woman is a brilliant journalist, and a fearless outspoken critic of the MAGA cult. I will miss her and hope to see her in a new role on some network. 💙🇺🇸 JOY REID @joy.msnbc.com @joyannreid.bsky.social #DemVoice1 #FightBack #ProudBlue

I choose Joy Reid over MSNBC! #SupportJoyReid #NoKing #FightFascism #choosedemocracy

Morning Joe bent the knee to Trump fascism & Joy Reid demanded justice against Trump fascism. Morning Joe whitewashed Netanyahu’s genocide of Palestinians & Joy Reid called out Netanyahu’s genocide. MSNBC protected Morning Joe & fired Joy Reid. I’m just not qwhite sure why.🤔

🚨MSNBC applauded Joy Reid for her NCAA award & then fired her days later to bend the knee and kiss the ring of Donald Trump & MUSK. I encourage EVERYONE to find Independent media like Meidas Touch who TELL THE TRUTH!

MSNBC letting Joy Reid go will be a costly mistake—one they’ll regret as we face a decline in democracy and a rise in anti-Blackness. Stay tuned for a piece on this tomorrow in @thebwstimes. #JoyReid #BlackJournalistsMatter #MSNBC #BlackVoicesMatter #BlackMedia

So @msnbc.com fired Joy Reid. I can't figure out why. Joy is just as good, and even better, than many of the other folks on the station. I mean, just look at her. Joy is ... oh ... wait a minute ... I see it ... now I know why. You've lost me MSNBC. I'll continue watching The Cooking Channel.

MSNBC Cancels Joy Reid And Replaces Alex Wagner Likely With Jen Psaki www.politicususa.com/p/msnbc-canc...

Joy Reid will host her final evening news show with MSNBC this week as part of a slate of programming changes by Rebecca Kutler, the network’s new president, sources familiar with the matter told CNN.

MSNBC axes Joy Reid. If any billionaires want to become multi-bazillionaires, THIS is the way. Create this cable news line-up and I’m there 24/7 (after you lure Rachel over, and snap up @JessicaTarlov after Fox fires her) @mcuban? @MikeBloomberg? @TomSteyer? @georgesoros? @GovPritzker? #Bueller?

I love Joy Reid and her reporting. I hope she lands on an independent great news platform because we need her.

Grateful for Joy Reid & her willingness to always provide a forum for voices and candidates often ignored by mainstream media. Can you name another show or host who brought together 5 Black candidates running for the US Senate?! Thank you Joy! @joyannreid.bsky.social

Crockett: He went from being the dork that was jumping around on stage to allegedly being this amazing genius that's gonna save a country he wasn't born in, and one that maybe he doesn't agree w/the idea of a democratic republic, considering the fact he may have been more on the side of apartheid.

MAGA Nazis in their own words: They want to end democracy and make Trump a God-like dictator with unlimited power to kill his enemies

JD Vance launched a scalding attack on European democracies, saying greatest threat facing continent was not from Russia and China, but "from within". Vance with his hypocritical speech just embarrassed us, once again, on the world stage www.bbc.com/news/article...

Name one thing Vladimir Putin would have done differently if he was president of the United States instead of Donald Trump.

It’s Saturday, the deadline has passed, and… crickets. Trump warned Hamas to release ALL hostages by 12 p.m. Feb. 15, 2025, or “let hell break out.” So far, hell seems intact!

Well, L👀KY here. A deceptive duplicitous false insincere sanctimonious self-righteous HYPOCRITE

“The action could create a precedent for further acts of resistance if Trump orders other government officials to do things they find inappropriate or believe would violate their legal responsibilities.” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Gutting the CDC right as we’re on the cusp of major outbreaks of transmissible diseases is a very bad idea.

There's a word for this (forced) arrangement.

Elon Musk didn't have any issue with USAID when it gave millions of dollars to his company Starlink. But now he’s treating it like a "criminal organization?" Why don’t the democrats call this what it is…this is a coup hellbent on destroying our Constitutional Republic!

The Eagles said “Fuck the White House. We ain’t going” Bruh…. How do you suppose to not like that team? For the one time, Go F*cking Birds

If getting drunk and throwing darts in the dark was a plan for governance... www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

This needs to come to a complete halt, immediately. Musk is going to get our operatives killed. abcnews.go.com/US/agency-da...

Nuclear safety workers (NSW) are useless, fire them. Wait, NSW are not, un-fire them. 10 minutes later, we don't need NSW, re-fire them. 10 minutes later, we actually need NSW, re-un-fire them. ... re-re-fire... ... re-re-un-fire... Trump is the only one who can make the English language STUPID

🚨INCREDIBLE! Fox News ran a list of items that will see a spike in prices as a result of Trump's tariffs! RT to make sure all Trump's voters sees this.

"Don't be evil. Kidding!" --Google

The fact that Trump is so senile and listless makes be both less concerned about any sort of durable authoritarianism surviving him and much more concerned about an acute catastrophe happening

They are angry that a judge restored a public website providing life-saving resources from the CDC, FDA, and HHS.

A quick search of Cotton’s accounts show that the first time he posted a single word critical of USAID was 5 days ago, despite serving in the Senate for 10 years and the House before that.

These middle schoolers have more courage than most of Congress bsky.app/profile/danl...

My hunch: Trump would be free of Leon if he could. He doesn’t have a choice. We all know he would never share the stage-yet that’s what he’s doing. apnews.com/article/musk...

THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION ILLEGALLY FIRED FEMA OFFICIALS AFTER ELON MUSK TOLD LIES ABOUT THEM. jfc it's not that hard!

Deranged antisemite Kanye West from making and promoting music about God to professing his love for Nazis, Hitler and posting Swastikas on the internet. But somehow Selena Gomez received much more hate for displaying real emotions over the horrific mass deportations.

The Trump administration is reviewing contracts across the federal housing agency. Some employees worry about potentially "devastating" cuts, though union leaders also hope some good may come of it.

Great article apple.news/A0S-wItraQWW...
