‘I’m Not Sorry’: Tearful Joy Reid Claims Her Anti-Trump, Anti-Israel Screeds Were ‘Of God’

Newly-ousted host Joy Reid gave a tearful interview just hours after it was reported that her 7 p.m. daily show “The Reidout” was being canceled — and that she was leaving MSNBC entirely as a result.

Reid made an appearance on a Sunday episode of the “Win With Black Women” podcast, where she talked about the breaking news and doubled down on positions she’d taken over the years with MSNBC.

“I’ve been through every emotion from, you know, anger, rage, disappointment, hurt, you know, a feeling that, you know, guilt. You know, that I let my team lose their jobs,” Reid said. “But in the end, where I really land and where I’ve landed on today is just gratitude. Just pure gratitude and gratitude — not just because people would take the time to get on a call like this or to take care of me, but also that my show had value and that — I’m sorry — that what I was doing had value.”

Reid apologized then for getting emotional, saying that sometimes the instinct was to feel guilt that she “went hard” on issues that she’d believed were important.

“Whether it was the Black Lives Matter issues of a young baby or a mom or dad that was killed, or when we opened up people’s eyes to the fact that Asian Americans were being targeted and not just black folks,” she explained. “That – or went hard for immigrants who’ve done nothing but come to this country like my parents did and try to make a life and defended them.”

“Or whether we’ve talked about what the president is doing that is subversive to the Constitution, that is injurious to our liberty, you know, defending books that people find inconvenient, you know, that Nikole Hannah-Jones put into our spirit that we need to understand 1619 as the real founding of this country,” Reid continued.

“Whether it’s talking about any of these issues and, yes, whether it’s talking about Gaza and the fact that we as the American people have a right to object, to have a right to object to little babies being bombed,” Reid concluded, making no mention of the Israeli babies who were killed on October 7th and in the months since. “And where I come down on that is, I’m not sorry. I am not sorry that I stood up for those things because those things are of God.”
