Failed food critic pays to get into event and finally gets recognized by legacy media. This entire evening is filmed. Wish she stayed for the Q&A.

Joy Reid is an opinionated, ignorant, corporate wh*re. Sorry for using what's considered to be a slur against women, although I'd also use that word to describe some men and never to describe prostituted women or children. I used to watch some MSNBC, but I never could stand her. Anything for money and attention, right, Joy? And MSNBC, no surprise that they'd slur the whole GC movement by featuring that Cirque duh Soleil person to cover a conservative event. Who's pocket is MSNBC in after all...

I use the word whore the same way. Never ever for women or children, but to describe the "tombstones in their eyes" talking meat puppets on TV and our gangster government.

This is such a good video and Ex is so on point (as well as funny and a great singer) that I keep backing it up at spots to listen again. Want to remember some parts, like the one about Sam Brinton.

The "nonbinary hair configuration" had me DYING. Joy Reid is the worst. She is consistently, stridently wrong. I don't like any corporate media, because they're constantly saying the same wrong things in exactly the same way. I don't want to hear their masters' scripts parroted at me, I want information.

What a vile self-serving "news segment." But I thank them for reiterating the concerns that many of us have about child protection. Since Soleil is a reputable published writer, and writers only use words they know the meaning of, she should be able to define "queer."

MSNBC is wholly owned by the trans lobby now. It makes me question everything they report. I used to like Rachel Maddow, now I'm just annoyed at how anyone who calls themselves a lesbian can shill so enthusiastically for misogynists in womanface. It's repellent.

Exulansic is way better than Taylor Swift. Sorry, Swift-lovers, but I wanted to understand the love for, as she calls herself, Tay, so I watched several music videos. Will be diplomatic. Was underwhelmed. However, she can sing and play.

btw, I stopped reading MSNBC stories some time ago. The site's heavy on opinion, ie low on news, and beyond being entirely captured, just isn't interesting.

Corporate shill. Low information reporter happy to tow the company line. “ Sterilization “ she bleats incredulously . Yep Joy why are they freezing sperm of the males prior to putting a child on puberty blockers? Sterilization!

There’s no rational except that lupron and suprelin castrate ppl. I guess she was still in diapers when it was standard procedure to castrate sex offenders with these drugs.

Mostly it’s just easier I suppose to believe that the things those parents were concerned about at that Republican dinner ie: interested in getting more information about the trans (sic) phenomena, puberty blockers, wrong sex hormones and surgeries, could not be happening. And we can’t make the Joy Reid’s and Soleils of the world willing to actually investigate.

What we can do is write em off. Quit listening to them; boycott MSNBC and Target and keep stepping out to protect the most vulnerable in our population; the children.

Just yesterday I told my closest friend about the tuck aspects and binder aspects of the Target kid’s bathing suits; the Pride tags and so forth. although she trusts me implicitly she was sure i was misinformed.

I described the tags, the racks of clothes that I saw from a video in a Twitter post. She assured me that they could be easily faked and she determined not to believe that what I saw was reality and that the fake stuff I saw was made to make the woke trans ( sic) lobby look bad.

I finally found the Twitter post. She now knows it was sadly legit.

I just wish another former friend and Democrat that I told about the 2500 double mastectomies of underage teenage girls occurring at 450 Sutter Street in SF in favor of their desired male body was a right wing talking point as well, although my own dr; pals with this butcher; who i know and trust was advised of the same, by the very doc performing the surgery. But no I m wrong, he’s ( my dr) wrong it’s all just “Right Wing Talking points.” I suppose all these naysayers thought frontal lobotomies ( 1940-1970s circa) were a hoax and that they never happened either.

Shall we all just bury our heads like Joy wants us to do.... ignore reality. Who cares it’s not my kid who will suffer from a life of medicalization bcz the TRA community is getting richer off us all. 1.4 M per transed kid! Yippee Hope yer proud Joy and Soleil

re: your second paragraph---just ask Alan Turing. That brilliant, brilliant mind clouded by wrong-sex hormones because he was gay.

I love the word "puerile"! We just don't use that word enough. Thanks for dropping it. And to be honest, I couldn't understand what these two dingbats were even on about. It was nonsensical wordplay.

Their "rebuttal" consisted of googly eyes, neck jerks, lip smacks and a bunch of "can you believes????"

MSNBC is the FOX of the left. I can't believe they picked this up. The op-ed was written so poorly, but that's not what this is about, geez.

She's a failure at everything, and a media shill, maybe some of the corporate media should look at the companies that decided to go woke and are currently going broke. She makes me ill listening to her drivel. They are not reporters they are sound bite engineers, unable to investigate so they parrot crap
