On his Saturday morning show Velshi, MSNBC host Ali Velshi played fact checker, claiming it’s a “LIE” to say President Biden’s agenda is socialism. Velshi even went so far as to claim a “single payer” health care system that ends private health insurance is not socialist! For many, it’s like Velshi’s riot denial, only this time, as Democrats set capitalism on fire, Velshi stands in front of the fire, saying “this is not an attack on capitalism.”
He began with a quote from Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell: “We’re confronted with severe challenges from a new administration and a narrow majority of Democrats in the House and a 50/50 Senate to turn America into a socialist country and that’s 100 percent of my focus.”
VELSHI: Well that’s 100 percent a lie. In fairness, McConnell has since softened his view about obstruction being 100 percent of his focus, but he still let the cat out of the bag. The GOP is a party with no actual agenda other than to sabotage the current administration. And as an economics guy I’m troubled by the continued false narrative about socialism.
Socialism is a system in which the government owns the means of production, meaning actual ownership of factories, hospitals, even machinery used to produce goods and services that people consume. Biden has not promised nor carried out anything that remotely resembles socialism. Even if you believe, as I do, that America should have a single-payer health care system, something that Biden disagrees with, that’s still not socialism. If you believe student debt should be canceled or that the minimum wage should be $15 an hour or that carbon emissions should be cut, none of that is socialism. What Biden does believe is that the era of big government is back. The idea of government involvement in certain aspects of public policy can be helpful. And guess what? That’s still not socialism!
Speaking of misinformation, Velshi then somehow suggested we hadn’t “boosted vaccine production” until Biden came into office!
Americans are warming up to the idea of more government especially during a once in a generation pandemic when a powerful and effective government could have ensured America had enough PPE, imposed mask mandates, accelerated testing and boosted vaccine production, all things President Biden did once he assumed office. In fact, a recent NBC News poll found 55 percent of Americans say the government should do more to solve the country’s problems.
After complaining about Ronald Reagan saying government is the problem, Velshi concluded that Republicans “lying” about Biden’s socialism is “just weak tea.”
Speaking of “weak tea,” this same Ali Velshi had no shame at all just ten months ago in the Democrat lie that the government under Republicans may define the term “fascist” in its response to unrest in Portland.
Velshi’s lecture for Big Government was brought to you by Liberty Mutual.
‘MSNBC’s Ali Velshi: It’s a LIE to Say Democrats Will ‘Turn America Into a Socialist Country’ How can it be a lie when it is the TRUTH?
MSNBC host Ali Velshi is a Democrat. Biden administration is filled with liars. Therefore Ali Velshi is a liar.
All of Main stream media is heavily involved with Progressives propaganda algorithms! Been evolving since early 80’s. FBI is controller of taking points for the sync’d Mainstream Media! Thanks for MRC providing proof of such. And all the fellow spooks for Navy,NSA and CIA all been watching!
Most Socialist Democrats ALWAYS say that their agenda isn’t to be SOCIALISTS. Actually, that’s correct because their true agenda is Communism. Their practice is SPEND, TAX, SPEND, TAX, then when citizens are dependent on the Socialist Programs, like a drug dealer, the customers is locked in. Look at Venezuela, it started and ended with just that. Free stuff, high taxes, confiscate personal weapons (with a guise of protecting the children). THIS IS NOW ON GOING WITH THE DEMOCRATIC SOCIALIST PARTY.
He is right, they want to go full Communism and jump right over socialism.
Velshi is as big a liar as the liars he’s defending!
Do these morons get brownie points for every lie they tell?
Is Velshi the son of Uncle Fester?
Oh, so you want a lier, Velshi? Look in the mirror.
It’s not a lie but have news for you… The American people won’t put up with it! When the blood starts to spill, and it inevitably will, you pompous asses on the left will not have the belly or the balls to handle it! I would be very very careful just who you piss off these days. You just may get your own ass handed to you. Verbally and literally… You are screwing with peoples’ freedoms here. Some of them won’t put up with it and absolutely won’t stand for it! This is by no means a threat, mind you… It is a statement of pure fact. ADVICE: Tread lightly… There are literally millions out there just waiting for you to screw the pooch.
Hmm, absolute total dependence on ‘big government’ as he put it, from cradle to grave isn’t ‘socialism’? Please tell us mere mortal deplorables what a system like that is then.
Oh and never mind the absolute total control of that life that they allow us to have that he and his ilk wants to foist on us.
America in Freefall
Communist Revolution in America
If you were a fervent America-hating Marxist living in the United States, what would you do with a nation that is rich, powerful, and highly successful? What do you do with a nation that has religious freedom, is basically a moral country, respectful of law and order with the Judeo-Christian principles of hard work, the dignity of human life, strong family ties, common decency, a strong desire for education, and a sense of accountability to God? America has freedom, capitalism, the opportunity to go up the economic ladder as far as your willingness to work hard. It is not a perfect country. Some of its past, like every other country on this planet, is dubious, but it is constantly improving, rearranging, and evolving. It is the envy of the world.
You don’t want an educated, moral, focused youth
What do you do when you have a commitment to turn this nation around to your way of thinking? Now, remember, this is not early 20th century Russia where people lived the life of serfs and Europe was in the midst of an industrial revolution, modernizing, and living in relative comfort.
You certainly don’t try to instigate a violent revolution. Revolution against what? Freedom? No, you change the culture. You let the people make the change. They just need a push in the left direction. You find its past faults and pull off any scabs you can find to stop the healing. You use their freedom to destroy them. They are not going to prevent you from speaking. You know it will take decades, but you are willing to put the time in. By the time they figure out what is going on, it will be too late. You have support from other Communist countries like the old Soviet Union and now Communist China. Stalin supported various Marxist organizations in the United States by sending people and money (McCarthy was right).
Early on you manage to get your comrades hired as professors, teachers, and philosophers in major universities. The students will listen to you because your theories are quaint, and America is an open society, curious, with freedom of speech. They will always listen to you even if just to avoid being rude, but enough people will always be taken in.
You branch out into America’s favorite pastimes, Hollywood and music. You introduce nudity in movies, a little at first, and then rock music that goes from love songs to heavy metal, satanic at its core. You encourage sexual promiscuity, but call it sexual freedom. You know the by-product will be abortion, thereby cheapening life itself. You pit one group against the other, not fighting racism or misogyny but inflaming it. You replace a God-centered ethic to a self-centered ethic. You can now freely choose your sexual preference, gender preference, kill your child, whatever.
When enough young people begin to listen, you tell them to live for themselves, tune in, drop out, feel good, experiment with drugs and all that life has to offer. Parents don’t understand, but so what. What do they know? You don’t want an educated, moral, focused youth.
The country now is in a free-fall
You go into the news business, both TV, print and PC, writing editorials, turning news from information to indoctrination and propaganda, following the path that education took years before. Your greatest accomplishment so far…you took over a major political party. Luckily, there are millions of people who are sleeping, still thinking the Democrat Party is John Kennedy and believing that government is the answer to all our ills…perfect.
With Donald Trump, your comrades did not have a president willing to play along. He fought you at every turn and was doing much too good of a job. Instead of congratulating him, you fought back with lies, impeachment and then a minor pandemic treated like the Black Death, planned years before to destroy the greatest economy we have ever seen. When all that failed the big guns came out…a totally fraudulent election that was so extreme, so comprehensive, so well planned and executed by both foreign and domestic enemies, it caught everyone flat-footed, even the Supreme Court that decided to do nothing. The Left has proven they will do anything for power. The country now is in a free-fall from where it was just months ago.
You now lean heavily on disarming the people. You can’t have an armed citizenry when they find out what’s in store for them. By coincidence (if you believe in that sort of thing) we have a rash of mass murders in the news, in Democrat cities, of course. Push hard now for gun control.
The cities you created are now the murder and poverty capitals of America, but they are useful, proof that America and capitalism doesn’t work. You must have patience, destroying a culture takes time, but you must work more quickly now, people are beginning to wake up.
The Leninist strategy of revolution calls for a two-prong approach
The Leninist strategy of revolution calls for a two-prong approach. One is a non-violent phase followed by a violent phase. We are at the beginning of the violent phase.
When you think you have enough of the indoctrinated in government, education, big business, the media and entertainment, even in the churches and synagogues, it’s time to go from persuasion to heavy-handed tactics…the violent stage. You’ve given up on much of the middle-class and now depend on the indoctrinated and the 30+ million illegal aliens you imported who are not accustomed to a representative democracy. If the country shows signs of disagreement, threaten riots. At this point, people who are not buying are considered insurrectionists, enemies of the state.
At this stage the political system is so corrupt it begins to putrefy. You hide behind thousands of troops that never leave DC in spite of the promises to the contrary. You look more like a third-world country every day, using strong-arm, military tactics to hold on to power. You know your grip is tenuous. You wonder if there are enough people living in fear that will support your coup. These people are not too bright. They have little knowledge and virtue, making themselves easy targets for tyrants.
I sense an awakening. Millions of people, if not fully awake, have their collective heads off the pillow. At least in the red states, people are beginning to fight back, passing counter legislation, claiming their 10th Amendment, states’ rights. At least a dozen states are active in that pursuit.
Make no mistake, there is a Communist revolution taking place in America. The Left is determined and well financed. People had better be aware. Organize and prepare to defend the homeland. We have spent trillions on defense from external attacks, but almost nothing to defend us from attacks from within.
Whether they call it Socialism or Democratic Socialism, it is all the same with the same goal…Communism.

A new way to spell liar. V-E-l-S-H-i. Why didn’t I think of that?
Either this host is very stupid and doesn’t know he’s telling a load of crap or most likely in on the scam and trying to convince the idiots who actually watch that trash that the democrats a a benevolent organization. They aren’t. Never have been and never will be. From their inception the democrat party has been an anti-freedom party. They were all for enslaving other people. they fought a war to keep those slaves. When that failed they wrote Jim Crow laws and formed the KKK. They voted against civil and voting rights for Blacks in the 1960s. Look at every democrat ran city in this country. The ghettos are like that on purpose. It’s much easier to keep people in servitude when they are desperate and dependent on the government. Yes the media is in on it and lie everyday to America. That’s the only way they can get and maintain control. Just ask Mr. Hitler and Mr. Stalin.
velshi is a cheerleader for nearly every component of socialism except that he does not wish to admit he’s a socialist.
“Socialism is a system in which the government owns the means of production…”
BIDEN is paying workers more to stay home than return to work. Since workers are the means of production, he owns them!
The Government owns the hospitals…
Private medical can’t compete against Government owned “Shingle Payer Healthcare!” This means that the Government owns the Healthcare System. (That works really well in England!)
Velshi believes that “…Student Loans should be cancelled…” The Students borrowed the money from the lending institutions. No-one held a gun to their collective little noggins to sign on the dotted line. The Government forced taxpayers to guaranteed the loans. In most cases, the Students signed up for classes they either didn’t attend, or didn’t complete. The way for this to not be Socialism is for Velshi to pay off the indebtedness, himself. No taxpayer involvement. If Velshi wants to fund the Single Payer Healthcare System for those that either will, or cannot pay, with no taxpayer involvement, he will avoid Socialism and be a hero to the indigent.
The PPE was depleted on the Obama-Biden watch during H1N1 and other outbreaks and left in a state of depletion when Trump walked into office.
