Joy Reid "Why are you all so angry??" [View all]

Why are y’all so angry?
You have the White House,
you have both houses of congress,
you have the Supreme Court that's completely obedient to the President, they give him unlimited power,
they are willing to say that he can take Seal Team Six and kill anybody he wants, and they are willing to affirm that,
they are willing to say that ICE can racially profile anybody they want,
the US Supreme Court has said you can racially profile Latinos based on their accent or the way they look,
you guys have everything you want,
legal racial profiling,
you've ended DEI,
you ended Affirmative Action,
you get all the best jobs even if you are not qualified,
you can be a Fox Weekend Host and be the Defense Department's Secretary of Defense,
you can be Kash Patel a Podcaster who wants to go to Valhalla and run the FBI as long as you are conservative,
you have everything, why are y'all angry?
WTF are you angry about?
You banned all of our books,
you have banned Black History,
banned the 1619 Project,
you don't have to compete with women for jobs,
you have chased them out of the military,
you have chased them out of the Department of Defense,
you have gotten rid of all the Black History in museums,
museums are terrified,
the people who work for the Federal Government are afraid to say the word Black,
you guys have cancelled Black Scholarships,
you are damn near ready to get rid of HBCUs,
Donald Trump just recently said they are not going to fund any minority serving institutions, y’all have gotten rid of that,
you have gotten rid of scholarships for Black kids to go to college, what more do you want?
