Jack Brewer felt the fire from leading news media personality Joy Reid. The MSNBC host accused Brewer's foundation and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis' camp of using young black boys as a PR stunt.
The kids Reid was referring to were at a rally, holding placards, to support a legislation which has been strongly opposed by liberals and left-leaning activists. She described it as child abuse on her show.

Reid went after Brewer in a seething tweet:

"This mis-use of Black boys is tantamount to child abuse. I would really like to hear the back-story on who these kids were and how they wound up at a DeSantis event. Given how anti-Black DeSantis is, using Black children this way is extra sick."
This led to a strong response from Brewer as well. He lambasted Reid for her comments and described them as "hurtful." He told Washington Examiner:
"She has completely humiliated my kids and my program. It’s just so hurtful, and she needs to be held accountable. She does it so often. And you know, her words and the way that she comes across to black America leaves a stain on all of us. … I won’t put up with it when it comes to my kids."
Jane Halbritter, whose nephews were among the kids in the rally to support the State Legislation, had this to say about Reid's comments:
"She has hate and resentment and bitterness toward people that she knows nothing about. I mean, she's painting these kids like they're just little black boys that don't know anything and could be exploited, like they don't even have their own minds. And I don't see her doing it with white kids."
Halbritter did not like that Reid may have put her sons in danger by saying such things on her platform:
"She doesn't know the love we have for these kids, and to assume that we would send them into a situation that they were not equipped to deal with or understood in an age-appropriate fashion, that's just so monumentally insulting, but it also put them at risk because now they're this poster child for this and kind of at the center of the storm. It's terrible. It's really a sad thing."

Whether or not Reid experiences any consequences due to her remark is yet to be determined. Jack Brewer is making sure she does, though.
