MSNBC host Ali Velshi scorched conservatives on Saturday over their fixation on diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives after President Donald Trump’s claim that such efforts were to blame for the deadly midair collision in Washington, D.C., this past week.

His comments arrived after MSNBC legal analyst Melissa Murray, a law professor at New York University, argued that the attacks on DEI are “about rolling back the gains of the Civil Rights Movement” and “reestablishing, re-entrenching a form of racial and gender hierarchy.”
