Former Fox News host Megyn Kelly accused MSNBC's Rachel Maddow, Joy Reid and Jen Psaki of “ridiculing” the idea that Virginia voters would vote based on immigration.
Kelly Destroys MSNBC Host
Psaki, who was covering Super Tuesday that night, heard Maddow and Reed say, “I live in Virginia. “Immigration was the biggest problem.”
“Well, Virginia borders West Virginia, and it’s a very competitive area.” Maddow answered.
According to The New York Post, a recent Gallup poll found that voters say immigration is currently the biggest problem in the United States. Kelly fired back at the smug MSNBC hosts by mocking the idea that “immigration crime is no big deal.”
“It was the most disgusting comment of the night, and it makes sense because MSNBC is trying to make money every night,” Kelly said. “They’re all kind of drifting off to who could be the worst. Three popular figures — Joy Reid, Rachel Maddow and Jen Psaki — are ridiculing the idea that Virginia voters will vote on or care about immigration.”
“'Immigration crime is no big deal.' Please tell the family of a 14-year-old girl in Campbell County, Virginia. I was sexually assaulted by an illegal immigrant from Venezuela. The girl was arrested and charged in September 2003 after trespassing into El Paso, Texas. “She continued. “It was September and she was released into the United States by the federal government,” she said. They laughed and laughed at their own danger. “They will find out what the truth is in November.”

'They will learn in November'
Kelly went on to warn MSNBC's personalities: “They laugh and laugh at their own peril.”
“They will find out what the truth is in November,” she said.
Not stopping there, Kelly singled out Reid in particular.
“Republicans want to kick all black people out of college,” Kelly said sarcastically. “This is absolutely absurd. It’s so insulting, but it’s kind of hard to be insulted by Joy Reid now.”
“She is such a funny character… Everything has been reduced to race,” she continued. “Are you angry about illegal immigration? You don't like brown people. Are you angry about illegal immigration? You want black people out of college. What are you talking about? 'Are all black people in college illegal immigrants?' If I say that, you'll call me a racist Joy Reid. “It gets worse if you say it.”

The Wrap reports that this is partly in response to comments Reid made earlier this week.
“Republican voters don’t vote that way. They don’t vote based on economics or how they benefit economically from the president,” Reid said. “They’ve been voting on race more and more since the Tea Party. “They are voting for the idea of invading brown people across the border.”
“The idea that they can’t get the job they want because a black person got that job is pushing all black people out of college and eliminating DEI. That’s what they’re voting for,” she added. “They’re just voting specifically on racial animus at this stage. It’s not about the economy.”
It's truly shocking that MSNBC continues to give a platform to ignorant race baiters like Reid, Maddow and Psaki. No wonder no one watches MSNBC anymore!
