Ali Velshi’s latest MSNBC rant on his Velshi show takes aim at President Trump’s social media post highlighting a viral video of Alex Pretti—a pro-2A activist—being roughed up by federal agents during a confrontation. Velshi frames it as Trump’s constant effort to undermine constitutional observers and protesters, twisting a clear case of government overreach into some sinister plot against democracy. But let’s cut through the spin: Pretti wasn’t some chaos agent; she was exercising her First and Second Amendment rights, filming feds in tactical gear who escalated a routine traffic stop into a full-blown intimidation show. Trump’s post simply amplified what millions saw—a blatant abuse of power by alphabet-agency goons, the kind that erodes trust in federal law enforcement and fuels the very protests Velshi decries.
This isn’t isolated; it’s a pattern where media gatekeepers like Velshi label any scrutiny of federal heavy-handedness as undermining the system, conveniently ignoring how these incidents radicalize everyday Americans toward stronger 2A advocacy. Remember the Bundy Ranch standoff or the Whitmer kidnapping entrapment saga? Same playbook: feds overstep, patriots push back with cameras and convictions, and outlets like MSNBC cry foul. For the 2A community, Pretti’s footage is gold—raw evidence that disarms the only criminals need guns narrative by showing armed bureaucrats treating citizens like threats. Trump’s amplification keeps the heat on, reminding us that without public outrage and viral exposure, these encounters end with compliance or worse.
The implications are stark: if constitutional observers like Pretti are fair game for verbal takedowns by Velshi and physical ones by feds, what’s next for armed citizens asserting rights at checkpoints or ranges? This fuels 2A momentum heading into elections, rallying support for leaders who back body cams on feds, defund the deep-state Gestapo wings, and affirm that filming tyranny is not just legal—it’s a civic duty. Velshi’s pearl-clutching only proves the media’s role as the real underminers, shielding power from accountability while patriots like Pretti hold the line. Stay vigilant, share the vid, and keep the pressure on.
