Citizens of the United States are being held “hostage” by a “far-right Christian court”, according to MSNBC anchor Joy Ann Reid, who has attacked the Supreme Court for its various rulings she regularly claims “in favor of religious institutions” . ”
MSNBC’s Joy Reid made the divisive remarks on Wednesday, ahead of the Supreme Court’s conviction of Roe v. Wade, who in the Dobbs case claims that the Constitution does not include a right to abortion and returns the issue of abortion laws and regulations to state legislators.

Reid claimed that in a country “supposedly based on the separation of church and state, we Americans find ourselves held hostage by a far-right Christian court.”
According to The Reid Out host, led by Chief Justice John Roberts, “the court has ruled more than 80 percent of the time in favor of religious organizations – far more than any court in the past seven decades.”
She then pointed to both the 2014 landmark Burwell v. Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc. decision as well as the later Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission case.
“There was the Hobby Lobby case that allowed businesses to refuse to include birth control in their healthcare coverage and the time they allowed a bakery to refuse to make a cake to celebrate the same * marriage,” he said. she said.
She also highlighted a recent Supreme Court ruling against the exclusion of religious schools from a program that provides teaching assistance to private education.
“Just yesterday, the court ruled that state programs that provide money for public schools cannot exclude religious schools that require taxpayers to fund Christian education,” Reid said.
“And that’s far from the only important decision this session comes from the court,” she added.
Reid calls a overthrow of Roe V. Wade “a dangerous reversal of decades of women’s rights,” Reid also drew attention to “a decision that could make it even easier to carry guns, which is likely New York’s restriction on “Destroy hidden firearms, as America endures. An epidemic of gun violence.”
She also noted the Supreme Court’s struggle with the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) authority to curb greenhouse gas emissions from the country’s power plants, which could hamper the Biden administration’s plans to combat climate change.
“And we are also waiting for a decision that will affect the future of our planet as we know it – an issue that could limit the EPA’s power to fight the climate crisis,” she said, adding that all of these decisions “are likely will come in the next two days or next week and we will see. ”
Reid said last month that Roe v. Wade happens, it will mean that “five Christian nationalists in court” make “black and brown people” victims.
She also said the Republican Party is forcing teachers to teach a “sanitized Christian white nationalist history they prefer”.
Reid’s position comes as Democrats, the mainstream media, and members of the far-left right continue to attack on various issues.
Earlier this month, a Salon piece accused the IDP of being a “de facto terrorist organization” as well as the “world’s largest white supremacy” group.
In October, the publication published a piece referring to “the Republican fascist movement” as “objectively evil”, hoping that “people of color” would die out in the fight against “multiracial democracy”, while “white Christians” accused it become that they embrace lies. , terrorism, white supremacy and fascism.
According to an essay published in the Washington Post this month, the Republican Party is systematically undermining democracy and posing a threat to American democracy.
On Friday, left-wing Hollywood agitators Barbra Streisand and Mark Ruffalo both accused Republicans, Christians and the U.S. Supreme Court of being the “American Taliban” in the wake of the Court’s recent decision that Roe v. Wade.
