1. Devastating

Total destruction

[yuiyoshida]

5. This is how it should be done...

Don't let them say anything...INFORM THEM! Educate them!

[tecelote]

21. Exactly.

This was truly great journalism.

[trc]

109. This rethug talking head knew everything Joy said

ahead of time...she knew she was lying and did not care. That is my point, they don't give a fuck about the truth or facts, they have a narrative to spew and they know it is bullshit. This will not change how this rethug presents her information to others because she just does not care. You can't inform or educate the lying talking heads at this level, period. They are being paid to lie and give no fucks about this country or its people.

[forgotmylogin]

125. That is some high-level air-traffic control on the news.

Joy has two ping pong paddles in her hands and is ready to land some mallowfluffing truth planes.

[onetexan]

28. second that

JoyAnnReid was damn good shutting that talking ditz down.

[Blue_true]

76. MSNBC.

Should give her Tweety's slot on week nights.

[yuiyoshida]

91. That's fine with me ...just keep

@lawrence!!

[MontanaMama]

107. Yes.

Tweety is annoying on his best days. Between his interrupting and laughing at situations that aren't funny.....get the hook. Bring on Joy.

[Vidal]

2. True BS

Those people are so full of it they don't even know what they are saying.

[think4yourself]

3. Wow.

That is how you do it! Holy smokes that was a thing of beauty to witness. Thanks for sharing!

[yuiyoshida]

4. I LOVE TO SEE

Republicans get an ASS KICKING (with kudos to SKITTLES)

[Skittles]

32. I should teach this for a living

the first thing I tell gals is STOP TRYING TO BE POLITE - FIGHT BACK

[yuiyoshida]

71. like this?

[Skittles]

89. YEE HAW

yes INDEED

[pangaia]

101. Oh yui, that is SO YOU.

[yuiyoshida]

106. I learn from the best...

@Skittles.

[pangaia]

51. She didn't even know what hit her.

No idea that she had just been made a fool of.

[yuiyoshida]

53. UM...yeah...

[Tripper11]

6. DEEESTROYED!!!

[yuiyoshida]

7. YES!

[peggysue2]

8. It was fun to watch

But I was surprised this woman didn't use the normal overspeak tactic most GOP spokespersons use. In fact, she really didn't sound convinced of her own script. Which isn't surprising because the talking points du jour are pure nonsense.

Nice bit of dismantling on Joy's part. She didn't break a sweat in the effort either.

[MaryMagdaline]

61. Good technique

She asked the GOPer a serious of questions like a teacher, to make her answer or sound ignorant if she did not answer. Do you know how many people were on the commission? Do you know whether Hillary participated? Do you know the name of the commission? The person was on her heels, was too insecure NOT to show she knew the answers so she fell in the trap of answering them. All answers were favorable to HRC. Joy has polite but authoritative voice, forcing you to play along. Not easy to filibuster.

[forgotmylogin]

126. "Have you heard of CFIUS? Can you tell me what it means?"

Brilliant.

[GoCubsGo]

66. She tried the "overspeak" tactic a few times.

Joy wouldn't let her.

[yuiyoshida]

92. Joy did great

[pangaia]

102. And THAT is the only way to do it.

Cut em off at the knees every time they try to blabber bull shit.

[Tatiana]

94. Joy doesn't let them get away with it.

I notice that when she sits in for Chris Hayes and the Republicans try it, she continues her point forcefully and loudly, drowning out whatever they were attempting to lie about and then reiterates her point.

[BigmanPigman]

9. I would like to see Joy Reid go one on one with that Fux Ruse

idiot (Janine Pirro). That would be a thing of beauty.

[yuiyoshida]

11. I would like to see her take on SEAN HANNITY

SHE would DESTROY HIM!!

[Skittles]

35. Sean Hannity is a punk fucking coward

he would NEVER take on someone as strong as Ms. Reid

[yuiyoshida]

40. Yeah remember how he boasted that WATER BOARDING was nothing?

And the scaredy cat never went thought it...

[Boomerproud]

10. About f*****g time.

Tragic for the country the Democrats don't have the same skills.

[yuiyoshida]

13. Maybe its time she ran for office

She would destroy her opponents

[BainsBane]

12. What a brazen liar she is too

[Blue_true]

88. That is their game.

Lie and assume that no one has or will take the time to check.

That reality is why I have a hard time believing the self reported income thing that claims Trump voters make more than Hillary voters and I won't believe it until TAX records are used to verify or destroy that claim. Income statements at a political rally is SELF reported information people, Democrats generally tell the truth, republicans lie about everything generally. Here are some general facts:

Lots of Trump and republican voters are very poor. I see these people driving around or talking their politics daily. Democrats have poor voters too, lots of them.

The highest income locations in the country, big cities and big suburbs generally vote blue by a large margin.

The wealthiest states are the bluest states. Even in red states, the wealthiest areas vote mostly blue.

How can Trump voters earn more when every statistic say that they tend not to live in high income locations? Don't say republicans have more millionaires and billionaires because Democrats have lots and lots of those too.

[BainsBane]

93. Could be

It could also be that those with higher
Incomes are more likely to respond to pollsters, or sampling errors.

[Blue_true]

95. I have seen poor Trump voters, believe me, they open their mouths at any opportunity.

I can see one working for minimum wage and shopping at Walmart for clothes talking of how much he makes to a clueless reporter, that is what I have seen them do. Shopping for clothes at Nordstrom, Macy's or at Bill's Khakis online would give those people hives.

[BainsBane]

96. It is sad they have been

Taken in by him, when he will only make them poorer.

[Blue_true]

97. Yep. Sad, but we largely make our own destiny with our choices.

Those people could work with us to make a better country for us all, but they chose not to.

[Roland99]

14. Take her to the burn unit. She got scorched!

[spanone]

15. they lie. flat out lie....

and MOST media does not correct them

thank you Joy

K&R...

[yuiyoshida]

16. Its time to sweep these jokers out of office...pronto

2018 will BE devastating for REPUBLICANS!!!

[spanone]

17. 👍🏼😎✰

[denvine]

18. That was a beautiful thing to watch!

[yuiyoshida]

19. she shows how its gotta be all the time with Republican Liars...

Great on JOY!

[NastyRiffraff]

20. Go JOY!

BTW, how come so many Republicans have that stupid, vapid smile?

[yuiyoshida]

22. I wonder if they stand in the mirror for hours and try to keep

their ugly mugs looking like a crocodile smiling...

[WinkyDink]

24. In order to infuriate, like you're not affecting them one iota.

[NastyRiffraff]

29. I think you have something there

That woman certainly succeeded with me.

[Beartracks]

120. I think this is it.

[vanlassie]

85. Because they know they're full of shit and theyre half embarassed.

[pangaia]

104. Because they are stupid and vapid.

[miyazaki]

23. That lady got powned.

[yuiyoshida]

27. Royally!!

[pangaia]

105. Man, you are on a roll.

[yuiyoshida]

108. Wrong....

I smoked a Rolled

joint.

That's not true either..I just smoked a bowl

[pangaia]

113. Lol. Brava !

That's proly really you too. ..
I mean yui two

[yuiyoshida]

114. Don't confuse me....

I just got stoned... well Juju and I did... I think...did we? I will get back t o you.

[JuJuYoshida]

117. baby? I'm really high and this post is brought to you by McDonlad's Fries

[yuiyoshida]

118. LOL

Were both confused.... XD

[vlyons]

25. Why does Joy even bother to book Deplorables?

nt

[yuiyoshida]

31. Hopefully to destroy them and their theories

or "ALTERNATIVE FACTS"

[BumRushDaShow]

39. I doubt she has any control over who the producers book for M$NBC shows. nt

[JHan]

62. for us to enjoy moments like this :)

Sometimes it's best to allow someone to spew their nonsense, so everyone can watch their points get destroyed.

[George II]

26. I saw this one live this morning. I was anxious to see it again, thanks. It was the hardest...

....I saw anyone slammed (verbally) in years. What a great job Joy did.

[yuiyoshida]

30. She did a fantastic job....

[USALiberal]

33. I love that woman! nt

[Tikki]

34. I can just picture this Jen person sitting in her car, crying after....

the interview with Joy...blubbering, "I'll do better daddy, don't
be mad.. I'll do better the next time."

Tikki

[yuiyoshida]

44. bwahahaha!

[oasis]

36. Smackaroo.

[yuiyoshida]

37. Yeah, there is that....

Link to tweet

[JHan]

63. "i am not the jackass whisperer"

[yuiyoshida]

67. IKR?

Brilliant!

[JHan]

69. look, I am using that line when I get into a debate with someone who refuses to engage me..

in good faith.

I'm just gonna shut it down and tell them. "I don't have time to waste with you, I am not the jackass whisperer"

[yuiyoshida]

70. Ya!

[mountain grammy]

38. This was fantastic

heard it on the radio this morning.. This is how journalism is supposed to be done. Joy had her facts.

[yuiyoshida]

46. yup!

But with the intelligence of most Republican spokes person, this should happen all the time, and I have no clue why it doesn't.

[JI7]

41. And all she did was state the facts

So why can't others do the same ?

It's not a question of opinion.

[yuiyoshida]

47. Exactly

もちろん。

[iluvtennis]

48. Cuz a lot of the M$M are only after ratings, so they let the shills say unchallenged nonsense. nt

[brush]

86. It's easier not to be prepared, to sit and let repugs spew. You know, collect your paycheck.

Chuck Toad and the Witt woman on after Joy are prime examples.

Stephanie Rule doesn't let them get away with stuff either, her and Ali Velshi, Lawrence as well.

Don Lemon, Chris Cuomo and Jake Tapper on CNN are also good.

AND OF COURSE OUR RACHEL MADDOW (no one comes on her show though because the know she will destroy them).

They'll soon steer clear of Joy too I'm afraid.

[sandensea]

42. Joy kicks fascist butt.

And takes names.

[yuiyoshida]

49. Righousely

彼女のために良い！

[Motley13]

43. whoo, hooo , Joy, go girl

also NONE of the uranium has left our country.

[iluvtennis]

45. It was indeed SWEET. Joy's hit it out of park w/truth based facts. GOP'er only had conspiracy shit.

[yuiyoshida]

50. That reminded me of a home run, for sure...BUT NOT ANY HOME RUN...

[iluvtennis]

58. I live in Bay Area and remember that one

[yuiyoshida]

59. I was shocked that Ishikawa was let go ...

or sent down to the minors... they should have kept him in the bigs.

[jrthin]

52. This should be sent to ALL the media types

Who sit there and allow lies and distortions to go unchallenged. Attention to most of CNN and MSNBC, with notable exceptions: Rachel and Lawrence, and Don Lemon of CNN; the rest are just lazy.

[yuiyoshida]

55. including....

[JHan]

65. hopefully Chuck Todd watched it.

not like it would make a difference for him.

[c-rational]

80. Completely agree.

[Eliot Rosewater]

54. Brilliant and too bad half the country will NEVER know these facts.

GOP are now all traitors, they have made that painfully clear.

[yuiyoshida]

57. right? They are too busy watching...

[coolsandy]

103. That's why i post the link all over FB and Twitter and on FOX Twitter account.

[bluepen]

56. Vicious take-down. Awesome.

[yuiyoshida]

72. Joy 1- Republican operative, zero

[Doreen]

60. Damn!! She's been learned.

[ClusterFreak]

64. Drop the mike, Joy.

Drop the motherfucking mike.

Journalism 101 is in session class. Pay attention. This is how it's done.

[yuiyoshida]

68. perfect!

[ClusterFreak]

73. Oh yeaaaaaaaaaahhhhh!!!

Love it!!

[Blue_true]

74. That is how you take those assholes down.

Hit them in the damned mouth with FACTS and don't allow them to cut you off.

[yuiyoshida]

78. Yes, don't let them lead you off the tracks...

[HootieMcBoob]

75. Beautifully done.

She's a treasure.

[yuiyoshida]

79. yup!

[czarjak]

77. Amanda Head's prediction for the indictments....

"Tony Podesta". A true piece of work.

[trof]

81. BAM! Joy is a jewel.

[yuiyoshida]

82. Agreed

Following her now on twitter...

https://twitter.com/JoyAnnReid

[turbinetree]

83. Jen Kerns must of gone to the Gaslighting School of BS, called the Washington Examiner

How does she sleep at night................knowing that she sat there and when facts are presented, she started gaslighting her own facts

[yuiyoshida]

84. Its easy for them to

make shit up... its probably in the Republican handbook

[vanlassie]

87. Frequent JOY watchers know to watch for her unique head tilt, eyebrow raised grin,

JUST BEFORE SHE POUNCES! It's a look that says "Oh no you are NOT going to spew that bullshit here for another 30 seconds." Priceless!

[spooky3]

98. Notice to journalists: Ms. Reid is a one-woman training program.

Everyone can learn from her!!!!

[Grammy23]

99. After the Joy Reid take down, Jen Kerns retort:

“I got nutin’....”

[uponit7771]

100. GET IT GIRL !!!

[yuiyoshida]

112. she is one of the COOL KIDS....

[3catwoman3]

110. Joy always has her...

...ducks in a row.

[yuiyoshida]

111. Roger that...

[Olafjoy]

115. I love her so much!

When other journalists let people spout nonsense unchallenged it drives me crazy. Ms Joy reminds me of the late Great Tim Russert and his descending screen of doom. He would play clips of the guests saying the opposite of what they were now saying. My favorite was when he played them saying what they claimed they never said. Maybe putting facts up when people lied? It is so lazy and sloppy to let people spew untruths and just move on to the next question. I can watch Joy and the TV is in no danger of being shattered by unidentified flying objects.

[yuiyoshida]

116. Great comment and Welcome to DU!

DUへようこそ!! いらっしゃいませ!!

[SunSeeker]

119. K & R & bookmarked!

[ProudProgressiveNow]

121. K&R nt

[xxqqqzme]

122. Don't mess with

Joy. She is gonna come after your sloppy attempts to smear Democrats. Jen Kerns is pathetic.

[Pacifist Patriot]

123. Excellent work!

[Raster]

124. Joy takes NO PRISONERS!!! Love it!

[ehrnst]

127. That needed to be 1000's of times in 2016.

See also:

Hillary "illegally" destroyed her State Department issued Blackberry with a hammer...

Hillary got donations from fossil fuel industry...

Hillary is not a feminist....

[Saviolo]

128. Absolutely savage.

A Joy to watch.

[Zambero]

129. Facts over fiction

The hapless RNC spokesperson never knew what hit her.

[lunatica]

130. Joy simply says "No." to engaging with debunked talking points.

The woman was persistent as are so many anti-Hillary/pro-Trump talking heads but Joy just won't let them finish or get away with it on her show. I love her for that. She even allowed the other guests to refute the woman.

[liberalla]

131. Yes, very well done, Joy!!

Thanks for posting!

[SergeStorms]

132. Joy is ALWAYS prepared.

Good for her. She tore that Republican stooge apart!

Facts are wonderful things to have on your side. It won't matter though, Republicans don't listen to facts anyway. They only listen to what the Orange Idiot says and tweets. They're all provable lies of course, but the truth somehow scares them. They just love to be lied to.

I wish there was a way to reach them, other than a ten foot pole, that is.
