The unmitigated gall of these people to tell a Black woman, whose ancestral DNA is encoded to "create space for other people's suffering". 92% of us voted in the best interest of ourselves and others, including Gaza. And yet, they have the nerve to say shit like this to us?
And you got put on blast because a nationally recognized journalist had a temper tantrum and decided to pull a George Clooney type maneuver… all because top leadership in NY at the federal level haven’t endorsed Mamdani. That is NOT AT ALL cool.
Block listed with the rest of the Twitter trash
@velshi.com should tell Palestinian protestors that they didn’t cost Harris the election. Because they sure seem to think they did, and are very proud of that.
They did.
Well what do you expect from someone who couldn’t call out the correct Democratic chair?🧐💯🤬
His response was 😬 Your responses on the other hand are based in reality, and electoral reality.
He blocked me because he’s fragile AF.
Me too. I wonder how many men who called him out got blocked compared to women?
Gee. I’d go look but …
😂😂😂😂 Yup. He’s broken and suffering mightily from male fragility.
Yup. Blocked me too. And I wasn’t even excessively rude or anything. He’s just a fragile fragile man.
Same.
Same.
Same.
Then we are over here in far better company than he is.
🙌
Also blocked me. Nothing of value lost on my end.
I REPEAT… I am done with them all and he just perfectly demonstrated why. This after he tried to chastise me for setting a white leftists straight then deleting.
You cannot waste your work trying to show people the reality that they desperately need not to understand in order to sustain their worldview (i.e., that they are right/good and everyone who disagrees is dumb/bad). You need this/some version of this pinned on your profile: bsky.app/profile/melm...
Good fkin grief
He is a Punk azz
Yup. @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com - get @katiephang.bsky.social to be your super sub and successor.
What cowardice.
He is weak and complicit.
Why do they keep lying. John Lewis and company didn't just protest those who would listen. The black civil rights movement protested against the party of the KKK which was then the Dems, they also protested against the GOP which would become the KKK. The NAM protests went are LBJ and Nixon.
After not are
It just makes no sense, on the political scene if you are attempting to make change you have to protest the entire political process/scene. Gay rights same thing. Women's rights same thing. Then again I believe if you are opposed to genocide, you would say the word Sudan often as well.
• IDF is enforcing the primal concept of PUNISHMENT for rape of women and murder of children. • Two million Palestinians watched their neighbors launch rockets, build military infrastructure, and loot Gaza aid. Palestinians are NOT innocent. • War is immoral. And sometimes necessary.
He's shown his ass with his latest posts. Everyone's calling him out and he hits the "block." Our "media" at work.
None of them can answer me if they've recieved thank you notes from the families of people that died in Gaza for their "principles".
It's gonna be the same as it ever was. Fucking hell.
It’s always on us to take on other people’s suffering but never on others to consider ours…
This. This. This. How did we "end" slavery but continue to expect free labor from Black people (women esp.).
...because our suffering has only mattered to a select few allies. This is why he got blocked with the quickness on the dead bird app and when he appeared on Bluesky.
So true!
Exactly!
Everyone is suddenly black when their asses are on fire, but the second the fire is out they are back checking the white only if you please box!
All that aside Trump has a gAZA agenda. Clear the people out so he can make a profit turning GAZA into a billionaire’s play ground. Netanyahu is likely going to help Trump’s dream
Dude is a real piece of work. He knows he fucked up. He just can't admit it.
I'm just seeing this...and now I wish I had been MORE disrespectful before he blocked me! Why TF would he say that to ANY Black person in the US? We got beef...
Same. He blocked me earlier today and I really wish I could go at him some more. What an ass.
I will never understand why people who run their mouths don't expect to get it back. Absolutely ridiculous! 😂 But...
They don't seem to even realize the hole they have dug with Black people in this country and they just keep digging.
the NEVER do.
Wow. He is really an ass.
The unmitigated gall. It must be a heavy load carrying around an ego that large.
I am shocked at Ali!
Velshi's meltdown today is showing that deep down, he knows what he has done. What they have all done.
Hit dogs holler…
Yikes! Pro-Palestine voters didn't cost Harris the election? They sure as hell helped. I used to respect Velshi's reporting years ago when I watched MSNBC, but he has become a real asshole, like so many other mainstream reporters.
So? You are proving my point. Now, they think they have any leverage with Chump, who already has plans to remove all Palestinians from Gaza and turn the area into Oligarch Disneyland with special manufacturing space for Elon Musk.
Yeah, I’ll trust their own words, over your attempted deflections.
I’ve had leftists deny that such a movement even existed.
‘Palestinian protestors didn’t cost Harris the election.’ No one knows the effect of the organized anti Harris campaign they launched: how many ppl didn’t vote (there were millions!), left pres blank on the ballot or voted third party. And even if they didn’t, THEY WERE FUCKING WRONG.
His response to you was wholly inappropriate.
I wish he had the sense to stop talking and listen
Good luck with that wish.
He’s 3 hairs away from bemoaning the woke mob
He's totally out of control. Unhinged.
I keep telling Black folks we are on our own. The year 2024 told me that they rather die than join us.
It’s sick and it’s sad that people who look like me just canNOT bring themselves to open their eyes until they’re the ones affected. By then it’ll be too late. I’ll keep fighting and trying to change hearts and minds one by one, but it won’t be enough. We’re all in deep trouble here. Stay safe y’all
You got to keep fighting and not give up never give up until your last breath. Otherwise what's the point.
Absolutely!
bsky.app/profile/mhai...
Shocking, appalling, galling beyond belief. His ARROGANCE. To speak to you about making space for the suffering of others?? No one in America consistently shows up for harm reduction for ALL of us like Black women. What a myopic thing to say, worst of all, to think. Utterly awful.
He did apologize.
Some people who he’s blocked were asking to see his apology to you… I haven’t been keeping on top of all these posts between him and you and everyone else I follow, and I can’t find it… Do you mind pointing me in the direction of the apology??
Someone else found it for me, so disregard my request. But, and I know you already know this, know that lots and lots of people appreciated what you said to him and support you. 😊
Thank you!
Let me see if I can find it.
Oh no worries, I literally just wrote back to you saying someone else did. It was @cratchedrn.bsky.social Here are the screenshots they shared.
I know I’m not you and it’s not up to me to decide. Yet I’m annoyed still. Especially since his apology had to be prompted by people pointing it out to him. I am of the belief that he wouldn’t have done it if men hadn’t pointed out that the apology was necessary. 🤷🏼♀️
There is definitely merit to what you are saying.
Glad to hear that. Still … 😒
I was glad to see he did apologize. I used an alternate account to see the close to your interchange. I admire your grace. I wish he had come to the realization by really listening and absorbing, instead of accepting it from men. You deserved a full apology, I hope it felt right for you. 🫶🫶🫶🫶
Im so glad to hear this. My bp was sky high. Your points were very, well-stated. ⭐
What in ever loving fuck?!?! How dare him.
Fuck, and I cannot stress this enough, that motherfucker.
He is really, really not handling the pushback well. It's so obvious these people are not accustomed to Democrats actually fighting back on their bullshit reporting.
Narcissism.. they are high on their own “fame”.
He’s definitely patronizing af. Like we’re all so silly.
I have not observed a single journalist over the past 10 years who has handled pushback & criticism well. Meanwhile, they're hemorrhaging consumers & the fascists are taking over their platforms.
They really do seem to have some kind of institutional inability to accept criticism with anything approaching grace. These people would die in a typical corporate performance review session.
It's like they view us all as unintelligent or unable to understand their important jobs. We are able to see just fine what the problems are. How many of us have been yelling that the house is on fire for the past decade?
Black people have been yelling the house is on fire for DECADES. Talk to your 80-something and 90-something elders. They knew fascism was coming to this country.
Ppl like Velshi are massive fkn narcissists. They can't handle criticism, they need constant validation and admiration and ppl are getting really Done™️ with giving it to them. So now they're flailing.
Yeah... they're high on their own farts. Slap me if I ever sound so obnoxiously self-important..
I'm done! I have nothing else to say because it will be non-productive.
OMG his absolute arrogance.
He'll get more tomorrow and the next day. He thinks his declaration ended the debate, it didn't. We don't have to eat his shit or anyone else's. 👉👌 em.
Good fucking God. I want a job where my performance is measured by pissing people off, that sounds super fucking easy.
I have no idea how he thinks this metric works Journalism=informing people, even if it makes people in power upset Comedy=comforting the afflicted and afflicting the comfortable Art=see “comedy” Prankster=angering everyone Where is he getting his definitions?
He's bearing false witness. And now claiming victimhood because he was confronted with reality. He's in a bubble of bullshit.
100%. And it's time we pushed back more instead of just letting them slide with their bro bigotry.
Hate that bald headed libelous freak.
Another reminder that so many famous people are too dumb to know when they’re wrong and too dumb to realize that feeling they feel is just racism.
The more I think about Velshi’s comment above, the more pissed off I get.
I CANNOT BELIEVE HE SAID THAT TO YOU!!! OMG. 🤢 I am SO sorry he had the unmitigated nerve to say that. How utterly vile to say that to a BLACK WOMAN!
I’m stunned. I really am. And it’s hard as hell to shock me.
I'm not! I deal with this shit almost daily.
I’m sorry…
No need to apologize. But thanks.

With his platform! My blood is boiling.
Yup and I have always seen him this way never got the appeal. He is slick but has always done a lot of the both sides and GOP explaining/excusing crap. I feel the way I did watching ppl finally get what Tapper is, what took ppl so long?
Jaw-dropping gall. Velshi is showing people who he really is. Let's believe him.
He did that on October 8th, 2023 the day I blocked him. Israel is an Apartheid, an occupation committing GENOCIDE on 10/8/23. Here he is on CAIR youtu.be/RDIVtKKsPs0?...
Gosh, do you think Ali Velshi knows that CAIR was created as a front for Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood?? bsky.app/profile/leta...
Of course he knows hence why he supports them.
I forgot he existed
Omg. He's just showing his full on racism.
They absolutely cost us the urban vote.
He's showing his full antisemitism too.
I read quotes where people stated they didn't vote for Kamala Harris because they "didn't like her stand on Palastine." Fools.
They disregarded that $100 million dollar donation to Trump by that Zionist lady. The promise she elicited for that donation.
They can phuck off.🤷🏿♀️
Allll the way off
I just noticed the typo - I know how to spell Palestine.🫤
Shame on Ali. His show as been close to unbearable with his unfair coverage.
I called him out and got blocked. Weak ass.
Same
Same.
I want to thank you for this for a personally reason faced this in my life. I assumed it was me, and turned my hate inwards when told by a Leftist 'friend' to stop centering 'black stuff' and center others. He is fucking rich living well, I have less than nothing. Watching you refuses to be cowed -
Didn't know how much pain I had until I watched him do it to you. Our pain has NEVER been centered it is censored and dismissed. We over here still can't breathe and they always fucking telling us not to care about ourselves. Black ppl vote like they care about all lives! maybe others should try it.
