The discussion explores Reid&#8217;s statements,\u2064 political perspectives, media portrayal, and involvement of the Baltimore mayor, raising questions on racism and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/watchdog-sues-biden-admin-over-funding-for-palestinian-government\/\" title=\"Watchdog Sues Biden Admin Over Funding for Palestinian Government\">policy implications related<\/a> to diversity,\u200c competence, and leadership responses to crises.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I\u2019m sure I have canceled MSNBC talking head Joy Reid before. I can\u2019t remember specifically at this moment because all of the ignoramuses discussed during my Daily Cancellation segment blend together in my mind, forming one big, loud, ball of stupid. I can only assume that Joy has been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/like-a-no-brainer-carmen-electra-joins-onlyfans-to-be-in-control-of-her-image\/\" title=\"\u2018Like A No-Brainer\u2019: Carmen Electra Joins OnlyFans To \u2018Be In Control\u2019 Of Her Image\">featured multiple times<\/a> because she is so aggressively, obnoxiously terrible in every way a person can be terrible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There are evil people who think they\u2019re virtuous and there are dumb people who think they\u2019re smart: Joy Reid falls into both categories. She even looks the part, with the bleach blond, short cropped hair and permanent scowl she looks like the kind of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/baby-name-karen-plunges-in-2020-hits-lowest-ranking-since-1927\/\" title=\"Baby Name \u2018Karen\u2019 Plunges In 2020, Hits Lowest Ranking Since 1927\">middle aged woman<\/a> who yells at the pizza delivery guy because the pizza doesn\u2019t have pepperoni on it, even though it\u2019s not the delivery guy\u2019s fault, and even though she didn\u2019t order pepperoni. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The point is, I\u2019m not especially a fan of Joy Reid. But today we have to pay her some special attention once again, unfortunately. In fact, we are covering this today because the Joy Reid segment in question takes a certain turn that makes it even more relevant.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">So, Joy took to her low-rated cable news show last night to call out the alleged racist conservatives who have been engaging in alleged racist conspiracy theories surrounding the Baltimore bridge collapse. We talked about the conspiracy theory angle yesterday, but Joy takes this in a different direction. It would probably be easiest just to play the segment and walk through all the many ways that she gets things wrong. Watch:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Actually, Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) didn\u2019t suggest it was an intentional attack. And even if she did, that\u2019s not a conspiracy theory. Intentional attacks on infrastructure are a well known threat. There\u2019s nothing outlandish about suggesting that it may have happened. But she\u2019s not even suggesting. That tweet that Joy briefly flashes on the screen says: \u201cThere should be a serious investigation into the horrifying tragedy of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Maryland. Is this an intentional attack or an accident? Praying for the victims, survivors and families.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Which part of that tweet is conspiratorial or outlandish? In fact, I can\u2019t imagine a more measured and normal way to respond in a situation like this. Is Joy Reid suggesting that it\u2019s inappropriate to even wonder whether the incident was intentional? That\u2019s odd, because the people investigating the crash also wondered about that. So far they\u2019re saying they don\u2019t think it was, but that\u2019s obviously an angle they pursued immediately. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Are they conspiracy theorists too? Joy doesn\u2019t say. Let\u2019s continue:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A few points here. Number one, it is fashionable to be openly racist in this country, just not against black people. But Joy Reid herself proves, and what comes next in this segment will again demonstrate, that racism against white people is indeed very fashionable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Second, she is showing us tweets to prove whatever point she\u2019s trying to make. As we\u2019ve seen, the first tweet she displayed from Marjorie Taylor Green totally contradicted her point. She wants to demonstrate that conservatives are being wildly conspiratorial about this. So she showed us a tweet where Marjorie Taylor Green was completely measured and utterly reasonable. Next we see a tweet from some congressional candidate I\u2019ve never heard of. And then we see one from an anonymous account on X called \u201cI am yes you are no\u201d with a cartoon profile photo. You know, that guy. That world famous conservative thinker named \u201cI am yes you are no.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/episode\/ep-1335-the-mayor-of-baltimore-attacks-white-people-as-the-city-deals-with-bridge-collapse-member-exclusive\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WATCH: The Matt Walsh Show<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Now, obviously, Joy is correct that it doesn\u2019t require DEI to get a black man elected mayor in Baltimore. Every Baltimore mayor for the past 30 years, except one, has been black. They\u2019ve also all been terrible, as the city has plunged into decades of crime, violence, and rampant drug use, but that\u2019s a topic for another day. But she is right that the joking nickname given to this guy by an anonymous cartoon Twitter account is not technically accurate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As to the suggestion that DEI might have something to do with the bridge collapse itself, that may not be accurate. We still don\u2019t know. We may never know for sure. There are many factors that played into this incident \u2014 factors that are still being investigated \u2014 and at this point it\u2019s just not possible to say for sure whether or not DEI policies played a part. But if people immediately speculate about the role of DEI in incidents like this, it\u2019s not because those people are so terrible. It\u2019s because DEI is so terrible. The fact remains that DEI policies have deliberately and systematically lowered standards across the board in virtually every industry, all in the name of making every industry less white. That is a fact. It has happened. It is happening. Joy Reid supports and promotes these policies. And now we are witnessing the collapse of competence across the country because of it. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">That doesn\u2019t mean that every catastrophe is linked to this campaign of destruction in the name of diversity. But it does mean that it\u2019s perfectly reasonable to wonder whether any particular catastrophe is linked to it. And it also means that inevitably some people will draw that connection even before it has been factually established. That\u2019s what happens when you come up with a racist policy that intentionally makes everything worse in every conceivable way. The problem here is the policy. Not the random Twitter accounts that Joy Reid is crying about.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">But it wasn\u2019t enough to have Joy Reid cry about them on her own. She also brought the mayor of Baltimore on the air to respond. You would think that the man has a crisis to attend to and would be too busy to spend time doing an interview to respond to a joking tweet from an anonymous Twitter account, but you would be wrong. Watch:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I\u2019m going to skip right past the mayor\u2019s statement that it requires courage to say the n-word. Something tells me that if any white person did say it in his presence, he would have a lot of things to say in response, and praising them for their courage would not be one of the things. The bigger headline here is this part. He said: \u201cMe being in this position means that their way of thinking, their way of life of being comfortable while everyone else suffers is at risk. And they should be afraid because that\u2019s my purpose in life.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Just to recap the situation here. The mayor of Baltimore, in the midst of a major disaster, has taken the time to go on a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-era-of-limbaugh\/\" title=\"The Era of Limbaugh\">political talk show<\/a> to play the victim because someone tweeted something mean about him. And then, in the middle of this little pageant, he proceeded to issue a threat, and even declare that his \u201cpurpose\u201d is to put \u201cat risk\u201d the livelihood of these people he\u2019s threatening. You might hope that his primary purpose right now is to figure out what to do about the fact that a bridge that carried 30 thousand commuters a day is now lying at the bottom of the Patapsco River. But apparently not.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">And who is the \u201cthey\u201d that he\u2019s talking about here? He says that \u201ctheir way of life is at risk.\u201d And \u201cthey should be afraid.\u201d I suppose the most charitable interpretation is that he\u2019s talking about people he deems racist. Even that would be disturbing. An elected official \u2014 a mayor in particular \u2014 should not be threatening anyone for having thoughts he disagrees with. Much less should he be declaring that they should be afraid and that he intends to put their \u201cway of life\u201d at risk. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It\u2019s worse than that, though, because Mayor Brandon Scott of Baltimore has obviously demonstrated himself to be a typical far-Left race-baiting Democrat. We would know that even without these statements on MSNBC, simply because that\u2019s the only kind of person who gets elected to lead cities like Baltimore these days.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Far-Left, race-baiting Democrats believe \u2014 and will tell you this explicitly, if they\u2019re in an honest mood \u2014 that all white people are inherently racist. They certainly believe that all white conservatives are inherently racist. Which means any threat issued obliquely against racists is intended for a particular racial group. This was an anti-white statement, make no mistake about it. Just as DEI is anti-white. Which means that Mayor Scott really has earned the moniker \u201cDEI Mayor\u201d after all, just for a slightly different reason.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I may have previously criticized MSNBC host Joy Reid as part of my Daily Cancellation segment.
