MSNBC’s Reid: GOP Senators Will Confirm
Trump’s ‘Bizarre’ Star Wars Cabinet

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 12/13/2024 5:35:29 AM

MSNBC host Joy Reid claimed Thursday on “The ReidOut” that President-elect Donald Trump’s cabinet is like the characters in the bar featured in the 1977 movie “Star Wars.” During a discussion on Trump’s defense secretary pick, Pete Hegseth, Reid said, “The people you used to work for in the United States Senate, they also know that and yet, what you’re seeing is senators capitulating in advance and essentially saying, yes, sir, we’ll take a knee to you. Whatever you want, sir. Including this bizarre cabinet, like a Star Wars Cabinet. They are just conceding.”

How can a person with so much hate in her heart be named "Joy?" The hate that comes out of this woman's (sic) mouth would get her immediately fired from every non-woke employer in the world.

It's pretty funny that Reid thinks that the GOP senators should "resist" the choices of the President from THEIR own party based on made up fakery and accusations from the Left. Of course, that is what the legacy is used to. They start a campaign to undermine candidates and expect the Congress critters to crumble in the wake of their scorn. But it's a new day and media is almost toothless. "Fake News" no longer works. Trump has inserted a bit of steel in the spines of most senators based on respect or fear, either works. And seeing the impotent fury of the media is VERY entertaining.

Reid is Congolese (look it up). She ought to be thanking the United States of America for taking in her father, illegally or legally. Otherwise she could be in the land of her ancestry, decked out in a loin cloth and bone in her nose. I did not know that Congolese were blondes, though.

Here's how you know she's dumb. Star Wars is a story about heroic resistance to entrenched imperial bureaucracies. Attaching that word to cabinet has no negative connotation whatsoever. I understand what Joy Reid was aiming for here. She meant to say "Star Wars Cantina cabinet" from a scene in the first film where a whole bunch of bizarre aliens are sitting in a bar in Tatooine. That would have at least been kind of funny. She can't even get her own invective right.

Joy Reid who? Wait, does she have a TV show or something? Oh yeah, now I remember. Isn't she the one that wrote a few years back some very hateful things about gays and when confronted, claimed her computer was hacked? Yeah, right, right. I think NBC said it was doing and investigation or Reid herself asked for the FBI to investigate. Haven't heard a word yet about the hack. I guess the investigation is still going on.

Jim LoScalzo - Pool via CNP / MEGA Former President Barack Obama had long been rumored as the catalyst for the 2020 Joe Biden nomination — and thereafter played the whispering puppeteer behind the subsequent lost Biden administration years.

The U.S. government is offering a $5 million reward for information on North Korean nationals sneaking into American tech companies and related cyber schemes. This is an effort to crack down on financial networks that fund the activities of the North Korean regime, including the "proliferation of weapons of mass destruction." The reward is offered through the State Department's Rewards for Justice (RFJ) program. The program serves as a national security tool and has paid out over $250 million to tipsters since its inception under President Ronald Reagan in 1984.

Key takeaways from the study include the fact that multiple Education Department grants “feature programming that advances race-based teacher recruiting, hiring, and training, including the use of race-based affinity groups.”

If your third-grader is competing in the 2025 Scripps National Spelling Bee, good news: “W-O-M-Y-N” is now an acceptable spelling of “women.” (What a time to be alive!) In fact, “W-O-M-Y-N” is explicitly listed on the National Spelling Bee’s list of 50 “study words” that’s distributed to third-graders. Nobody knows when spoken language began, but written language developed independently in Mesopotamia, Egypt, China, and Mesoamerica. Presumably, shortly after the emergence of writing, was the emergence of the crotchety, ornery, spinster schoolteacher who’d shame you before the class when you misspelled a word. And now, the proper spelling of women is “W-O-M-Y-N.”

Schools have seen a drop in childhood vaccinations since the COVID-19 pandemic, when critics of the COVID-19 vaccines increased anti-vaccine sentiments in generalizing . Public health groups see vaccines as a huge bulwark against disease and fear Kennedy will only increase skepticism if he is confirmed.
