Former MSNBC Host Admits Woman Fatally Shot In Minneapolis Was ‘ICE Interrupter’

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

Former MSNBC host Joy Reid admitted during a Monday interview with podcaster Angela Yee that Renee Nicole Good was part of a group of “ICE interrupters” that sought to obstruct federal immigration enforcement.

Good was fatally shot by a United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent during a Jan. 7 enforcement operation, raising tensions between state and local officials and the federal government. Reid, appearing on Monday’s episode of “Way Up with Angela Yee,” said that Good had sought to prevent ICE agents from apprehending illegal immigrants.

“This woman was part of a group of people who they train to try to be ICE interrupters. And what they try to do is observe what ICE is doing, film them, and try to use their white privilege. to be honest, they’re mainly white people, which is what we asked them to do, right?” Reid said. “Because black people… we can’t put our bodies on the line because cops will shoot us.”

“And so the presumption had been, particularly a white woman, remember, part of the rationale for doing this with ICE is to save white women from being ravaged by criminal brown men,” Reid continued, referencing the outcry over the murders of Laken Riley, Rachel Morin and Jocelyn Nungaray by illegal immigrants. “So, they white women have been taking the lead in being the ones to step forward and challenge ICE.”

Riley, Morin and Nungaray were all raped and murdered by illegal immigrants who had been allowed to remain in the country by the Biden administration. Their murders made illegal immigration, long a signature issue of President Donald Trump, a prominent issue in the 2024 campaign.

“In this case, this white woman and her wife, who’s also a white woman, were driving in an SUV. They parked to try to block ICE from snatching people out of a suburban neighborhood,” Reid told Yee.

Among the illegal immigrants arrested by ICE in the Minneapolis area on Jan. 7, the day Good was shot, were multiple sex offenders, people convicted on drug charges and people convicted of assault, according to a Thursday release by the Department of Homeland Security.

ICE deployed hundreds of agents into the Minneapolis area in December to target illegal immigrants from Somalia after initial reports indicated there was widespread fraud ravaging Minnesota’s welfare programs. Federal officials said during a Dec. 18 press conference that the amount of stolen money was at least $9 billion, while the Treasury Department is investigating whether some of the stolen funds went to the radical Islamic terrorist group Al-Shabaab.

Reid has a history of making racially-charged rants, including calling the Founding Fathers “killers” and leeches and attacking “white women” for not backing then-Vice President Kamala Harris during MSNBC coverage of the election results on Nov. 5, 2024. Tucker Carlson, a co-founder of the Daily Caller and Daily Caller News Foundation, compared the MSNBC shows of Reid and fellow MSNBC host Tiffany Cross to “Hutu radio” during an October 2022 episode of his Fox News show, referencing media that reportedly incited the 1994 genocide in Rwanda.

Reid Guest: MAGA Means Going Back to ‘Days When You Could Lynch or Murder Black Folks’

/in , , , , , /by

Thursday on MSNBC’s propaganda outlet The ReidOut, guest legal analyst Brittany Packnett Cunningham told racist host Joy Reid that the slogan Make America Great Again, associated with former President Trump and his supporters, reflects a desire to return to “days when you could lynch or murder black folks.”

Discussing a proposed Missouri self-defense law, demagogue Reid claimed that “Mark McCloskey, who is running for the open Missouri Senate seat, praised the bill. Because it means that he essentially, and his wife, could have been in their slippers and shoot every single Black Lives Matter person that walked by, legally, and they would not even be detained.”

What an utterly absurd lie. No one in conservative media would ever get away with making such an outrageously stupid claim, but no one in the mainstream (i.e. leftist) media will even bat an eye over it.

Packnett Cunningham replied, “This was, of course, the couple that was made famous by stepping outside of their restricted Covenant mansion in St. Louis, Glocks in tow, pulling their guns out on unarmed black protestors. But of course, to people like the McCloskeys, black skin is weapon enough, and this is precisely the problem. This is exactly what this bill is designed to do. It is to legitimize seeing blackness as a weapon in and of itself and then justify our murders.”

The McCloskeys did not display their weapons because of racism, but because their neighborhood was being threatened by rioters and looters. Moreover, the proposed Missouri self-defense law has nothing to do with race. It would apply to every legal citizen, blacks included — and blacks statistically benefit more from self-defense laws and 2nd Amendment rights than whites do.

She added, “So when folks talk about making America great again, that’s the kind of Missouri grand ol’ tradition that they want to return to. They want to return to days when you could lynch or murder black folks, and there would be absolutely no retribution for it. That’s not hyperbole. I’m telling you as a black Missourian, and as a protestor, that is reality.”

That’s not hyperbole? Of course it is. It’s beyond hyperbole. It’s a hate-mongering lie that bears no relation whatsoever to reality. But that’s how MSNBC and Joy Reid roll.

Reid Says That “Selfish” White Christian Conservatives Believe That America Was “Built for Them”

During the January 3, 2022 airing of her MSNBC program The ReidOut, Reid said:

“They’re white so-called Christian conservatives who feel like this country was built by them for them, and so everyone but them needs to suck it up and let them have their way or else. Their party, the Republicans, have gone from pretending to be the party of personal responsibility to unmasking themselves as the party of selfish people that cannot play well with others. And they even have their own cable networks plus something called GETTR [a social media platform and microblogging site founded in July 2021 by former Donald Trump aide Jason Miller], which kind of sounds like porn. Moving on. So the special citizen says, ‘I don’t want to wear a mask [against coronavirus], and if you try to attack me, I’ll attack the low-waged clerks at the store or at the Burger King. I don’t want to get the [COVID-19] vaccine either. If people get sick from me, oh well, not my problem. Joe Rogan said it’s fine. My kids aren’t going to mask up to protect those other kids. F those other kids, their parents are probably commies anyway.’ Which usually means people who want rights for other people and who give a damn what happens to them. So this midterm election year, we’re going to find out which brand of citizenship is stronger, and the answer will tell us whether our democracy is strong enough to survive.”

Ilhan Omar, CAIR Slam MSNBC’s Joy Reid As ‘Islamophobic’

/in , , , , /by

Rep. Ilhan Omar, civil rights attorneys, and advocate organizations have slammed MSNBC propagandist Joy Reid after the network host compared the behavior of President Trump supporters to “the way Muslims act.”

“When leaders, let’s say in the Muslim world, talk a lot of violent talk and encourage their supporters to be willing to commit violence including on their own bodies in order to win against whoever they decide is the enemy, we in the U.S. media describe that as they are ‘radicalizing’ these people, particularly when they’re radicalizing young people,” Reid said to a panel of guests. “That’s how we talk about the way Muslims act. When you see what Donald Trump is doing, is that any different from what we describe as radicalizing people?”

“Honestly, this kinda of casual Islamophobia is hurtful and dangerous,” Rep. Omar later tweeted. “We deserve better and an apology for the painful moment for so many Muslims around our country should be forthcoming.” Zakir Khan of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) in Oregon, said Reid’s remarks were “so unbelievably Islamophobic it’s ridiculous.”

“This isn’t even subtle,” civil rights lawyer Zahra Billoo tweeted. “It’s blatant Islamophobia @JoyAnnReid.” Muslim Advocates, a civil rights organization, has called for an apology for “spreading the false, dangerous myth that Muslims are inherently radical and violent.”

In July 2019, Omar introduced a House Resolution supporting the BDS movement and comparing Israel to apartheid South Africa and Nazi Germany. Co-sponsored by fellow Democrats Rashida Tlaib and John Lewis, the resolution called on House members to oppose “unconstitutional legislative efforts to limit the use of boycotts to further civil rights at home and abroad,” a reference to resolutions that had been passed in several states to prohibit the granting of government contracts to companies that backed BDS. “We are introducing a resolution … to really speak about the American values that support and believe in our ability to exercise our first amendment rights in regard to boycotting,” said Omar. “And it is an opportunity for us to explain why it is we support a nonviolent movement, which is the BDS movement.”
