On MSNBC's The ReidOut, host Joy Reid and her three guests, who all appeared to resemble a Mount Rushmore of stupid, engaged in another smear fest against Republicans. This time, they accused the GOP of engaging in a dangerous "dog whistle" for simply pointing out the amount of death, destruction, and decay that George Soros has caused in American society. Reid and her assembled panel had no facts to support their arguments. So, like good leftists, they simply maligned the intentions of their political opponents.
Reid turned to former CIA officer Tracy Walder to cry about conservatives being mean to Soros for merely pointing out he's a puppetmaster behind every destructive force in the United States: "[T]he fact that they keep throwing George Soros’ name, we’ve talked a lot in our show meetings, is it definitely feels like a dog whistle that is dangerous."
Walder agreed with Reid, adding: "[I]t absolutely feels like a dog whistle that’s dangerous. Look, most of these groups, the Oath Keepers, Boogaloo Boys, Proud Boys, they all subscribe to what you are all referring to as the great replacement theory."
She never explained what these fringe groups that the overwhelming majority of Americans of all sides have never heard of have to do with evoking the name of George Soros.
Despite that, she continued to smear conservatives by claiming attacking Soros has caused "these spikes in anti-semitism," and "they are ascribing to this belief and it's stoking this division."
True statements were in short supply like grocery stores during COVID lockdowns, so, at the end of the day, it's amazing how Reid even has the little credibility she has left.

MSNBC’s The ReidOut
3/21/2023
7:14:49 p.m. EasternJOY REID: And Tracy Walder, last word to you then on this. The fact that they keep throwing George Soros’ name, we’ve talked a lot in our show meetings, is it definitely feels like a dog whistle that is dangerous.
TRACY WALDER: It absolutely feels like a dog whistle that’s dangerous. Look, most of these groups, the Oath Keepers, Boogaloo Boys, Proud Boys, they all subscribe to what you are all referring to as the great replacement theory. Which is that idea that the majority of the white population is being replaced and this is why we see these spikes in racism. These spikes in anti-semitism. Is because they are ascribing to this belief and it's stoking this division. I mean Trump has for multiple years actually now has called for a civil war. And I think that's really what he's inferring when he does that. And that's why we're playing whack-a-mole essentially with a lot of these online threats.

TARA SETMAYER: And Republicans are letting him do it.
REID: Yes they are.
SETMAYER: And the Republican Party is letting him do it. They stand by as if that’s okay. It's embarrassing.
