Velshi Compares Anti-DEI Efforts to George Wallace and Segregation
Alabama doesn’t want to teach its children that they are responsible for the sins of others in the past or that meritocracy is racist or sexist. For MSNBC’s Alex Wagner Tonight Wednesday guest host Ali Velshi, not only does this mean teaching the history of segregation just became more difficult, but those in favor of such a law might as well be George Wallace himself.

Some Cheese For Wagner And Stelter's WHINE About Sale of Baltimore Sun
On MSNBC’s Alex Wagner Tonight, viewers were subjected to several painful minutes of self-indulgent whining over the purchase of The Baltimore Sun by David Smith, executive chairman of Sinclair Broadcasting Group. Media don’t especially appreciate losing control of an outlet.

'The Cruelty Is The Point,' Velshi Smears GOP As Racist On The Border
Why do Republicans care about the border? It is a simple question with a simple answer: it is a mess. But for MSNBC’s Ali Velshi, who had guest hosting duties for Wednesday’s Alex Wagner Tonight, it is because “they want to let fewer brown people in” and any measures to address the issue prove that “the cruelty is the point.”

Stelter Plugs Fox-Frying Book on MSNBC, No Talk of CNN's Hamas Kisses
Brian Stelter’s second book raining fire on Fox – Network of Lies – is coming out next week, but he appeared on MSNBC’s Alex Wagner Tonight on Thursday night to promote it.

That’s an inconvenient truth for Mr. Facts…
