On Saturday morning, as MSNBC's Ali Velshi devoted his eponymous show to covering the terrorist attack by Hamas that had already killed hundreds of Israeli civilians, the liberal weekend host joined one of his anti-Israel guests in trying to see moral equivalency in a terrorist attack versus legitimate defensive actions by the Israeli military.

Mere hours after Hamas militants began their wholesale slaughter of innocent Israelis on Saturday, the media were already gearing up to excuse the mass murder.

MSNBC's Ali Velshi calls Israel's proposed total siege of Gaza, in response to the Hamas attack, a "war crime." He couldn't find those words for Hamas.

During live coverage on MSNBC of the terrorist attacks against Israel Saturday morning, host Ali Velshi complained that nobody in Israel or the United States seemed to care that Palestine was supposedly being mistreated by Israel.

MSNBC The 11th Hour guest host Ali Velshi, Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin, and presidential historian Michael Beschloss were all greatly distressed on Thursday as they reacted to the “weird” GOP primary debate from the night before that focused on policy differences between the candidates instead of obsession over Donald Trump and “the anti-democratic tendencies…

MSNBC’s Ali Velshi kicked off his first show of Pride Month on Saturday by not just condemning Republicans for doing things such as “taking medically-necessary health care away from children,” but gleefully reporting that such positions are unpopular. Unfortunately for Velshi, not only does popularity not equal rightness, it just so happens to be that it is his position that is unpopular.

Nikole Hannah-Jones joined MSNBC’s Ali Velshi on his Saturday show to discuss the criticism and banning of The 1619 Project.
