‘Repulsive': Outrage over Joy Reid's ‘deeply offensive' prison comparison

Sky News AU2 days ago
Menzies Research Centre's Freya Leach has commented on former MSNBC host Joy Reid's comparison of Florida's new immigration detention centre to a 'concentration camp'.
'I mean, seriously, when will the Democrats understand that hyperbolic comparisons of Trump to the Nazis is not only deeply offensive but it also weakens their own argument because it's so absurd and obviously untrue,' she said.
'I find the endless comparisons the Democrats keep trying to draw with the Nazis just repulsive.'

‘Democrats are losing their minds': Trump's Big, Beautiful Bill to be the ‘law of the land'

Sky News host James Morrow discusses US President Donald Trump's Big Beautiful Bill. 'This is, to be sure, a major victory for Donald Trump, who has spent the last six months governing, which is a lot harder than campaigning,' Mr Morrow said. 'With the Big, Beautiful Bill and its immigration enforcement provisions, Democrats are losing their minds. 'Is it big? Yes. Beautiful? In a lot of parts, absolutely. Is it a bill? Well, not any longer, because very soon it'll be the law of the land.'

AOC, Bernie Sanders and the socialist left are leading the Democrats

Wall Street Journal Editor-at-Large Gerard Baker says self-described socialists like Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Senator Bernie Sanders and New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani are 'leading figures' in the Democrats. 'You've got the Democratic Party itself reaching for extreme,' Mr Baker told Sky News host James Morrow. 'Zohran Mamdani … has basically described himself as a democratic socialist. The leading figures in the Democratic Party right now are Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who also describes herself as a socialist, and Bernie Sanders, who also describes himself as a socialist. 'Not only has Trump been able to achieve all this for his domestic and international agenda, he's been able to marginalise the Democrats, make them seem the extreme party, make them seem out of step with Americans.'

Trump's agenda forces Democrats to vote against common sense

Sky News host James Morrow says US President Donald Trump's agenda is forcing Democrats to take 'extreme positions' which are 'against common sense'. '[Trump has] used a lot of political capital to get this very big thing through that sweeps away a lot of the Biden program and even a lot of the Obama program away,' Mr Morrow said. 'I've heard it suggested that the strategy is going to now start to pick off Democrat programs on kind of 80-20 issues where most people agree with the Republicans and force Democrats to take extreme positions, voting against common sense single-issue items.'
