‘Uh, he’s not white’: Twitter has a problem with Joy Reid’s latest attack on George Santos
January 7, 2023 | Terresa Monroe-Hamilton
MSNBC host Joy Reid desperately took her racism to new lows on Friday, accusing Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.) of throwing a “white power sign” while voting against Rep. Byron Donalds(R-Fla.), who happens to be black, for the House speakership.
Santos, who has been outed for lying on a number of things, voted for House GOP leader Kevin McCarthy to take the speaker gavel. Reid outrageously asserted that Santos was a racist for voting for McCarthy instead of Donalds simply because his fingers happened to be in a certain position. That’s a stretch even for her.
The MSNBC host was speaking with The Bulwark’s Tim Miller when she made the accusation. She tore into Republicans, baselessly accusing them of being insurrectionists, and then brought up Santos, who is reportedly of Brazilian ancestry, and laughably alleged that he is a white supremacist.
“This inside coup, which is basically insurrectionist versus insurrectionist, is about committee seats,” Reid sneered. “It’s about something as small and mundane as committee seats.”
