MS NOW anchor  Ali Velshi says he’s conflicted about celebrating the 250th birthday of America – announcing on cable television that he feels a deep unease about celebrating the land of the free and the home of the brave. Here’s what you may not know about Mr. Velshi. He was born in Kenya and raised in Canada. In 2015 he swore an oath to become a naturalized citizen of the United States. We welcomed Mr. Velshi into our nation and by all measures he is living the American dream. There are reports that he could be worth quite a bit of money. You really think that would’ve happened if Mr. Velshi had remained in Kenya or even in Canada? Highly unlikely. And that’s why – as much as Ali Velshi hates our nation – he will never leave. He’s living the good life.So while Americans toast our Founding Fathers and enjoy burgers and fireworks on this Fourth of July, might I recommend that aggrieved immigrants like Ali Velshi just shut up and show a little gratitude or better yet - book a one-way ticket back to Kenya.
